Summary

Forget Chapter 8, THIS is the big swordsmen assembly we've been waiting for!

Tassel: My friends... I can't take my eyes off of Touma and the others doing their best to save the world!
The fallen Calibur has risen once again, and the door to great power has finally been opened.
Touma then chased after Calibur into the enormous book!
What will happen next...?

Touma and Rintaro, with their new Rider forms, are able to keep up with Calibur, but in the midst of their fight, Calibur disappears into a door leading to another world with Saber in pursuit. As the swordsmen fight to save the day and the world, Touma learns a horrifying truth about the event from 15 years ago.

Episode Tropes:

• Apocalypse Maiden: Luna is revealed to be an important key to both the human world and the Wonder World.
• Awful Truth: Two of them.
  • First off is the fact that our world was created from the Book of Knowledge, and that its destiny is predetermined.
  • Second is that Hayato really did side with the Megid, causing the events of 15 years ago, and that the Sword of Logos is less benevolent than it appears to be.
• Foreshadowing: Just before Touma can retrieve Calibur's sword and Wonder Ride Books, a plume of smoke comes and takes them away. Ten episodes later, we learn where said smoke comes from and who uses it.
• Heel–Face Door-Slam: Just as Kamijo is won over to Touma's way of thinking, he gets stabbed in the back by Desast.
• "Not So Different" Remark: Touma realizes that Kento and Kamijo aren't so different, as both ultimately wanted to know why Hayato betrayed everyone.
• Once More, with Clarity: We get another view of Touma's flashback 15 years ago, with some added details: Luna being a Barrier Maiden, and Hayato really being a traitor, with young Touma being caught in the crossfire.
