Directed by Satoshi Morota

After an intense fight against Kamen Rider Ikazuchi, A.I.M.S. discovers that the hideout of MetsubouJinrai.net is located somewhere near Daybreak Town, and they proceed to carry out an operation in the area! With the awakening of the Ark, the powers of the MetsubouJinrai.net terrorists have increased significantly, as they engage A.I.M.S. operatives in battle! Meanwhile, Aruto visits his family grave alongside the Astronaut-Type HumaGear who had just lost his elder brother, Raiden. Aruto starts to think about the HumaGear's ability to have a dying wish as he is standing before these graves. Aruto receives an incoming report regarding the activities of MetsubouJinrai.net, which means that the final confrontation between humans and HumaGears is about to begin!


Episode Tropes:

  • Cue the Sun: At the end of the episode, Aruto's resolve to fight Jin and end MetsubouJinrai.NET once and for all is punctuated with the night sky turning to day as he transforms.
  • Dangerous Forbidden Technique: Isamu's Deadly Upgrade form Assault Wolf. As established in the last episode, while exceedingly powerful, it puts a tremendous amount of strain on the user. While Isamu does manage to put up a good fight against MetsubouJinrai.NET, Assault Wolf is just too much for him to handle.
  • Fusion Dance: Shining Assault Hopper in a nutshell. Unlike Assault Wolf, this form is created through both the Ark and Zea. Lampshaded in the text-to-speech portion of the transformation sequence:
    HybridRise!
  • Grew Beyond Their Programming: It is shown in this episode that both Izu and Subaru both have achieved Singularity and that Jin also gained Singularity from Horobi's sacrifice.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Downplayed Antagonist variant. Horobi explains his sacrifice was necessary for Jin, whom he raised to hate humans, to reach Singularity and finish what they started.
  • Not Quite Dead: When Jin attacks Izu in his rage, Izu is critically damaged and shuts down. However, according to Subaru, the Zea Satellite should be able to repair Izu, to which Aruto eagerly agrees to try in order to save Izu.
  • Taking the Bullet: When Jin was about to get hit by Isamu's Magnetic Storm Blast Fever, Horobi pushes Jin out of the way, taking the full damage of the hit and barely functional after crashing.
  • Wham Episode: A doozy. Horobi is heavily damaged by Isamu and Izu is critically damaged by Jin, whose Singularity fully manifests with the Final Battle with MetsubouJinrai.NET now underway.
