With the Mad? Horror sample they got from Rivera, Burai creates a Mad? Horror detection music box that the Makai Knights use to take out two Mad? Horrors posing as a city councilor and a doctor. From their confrontation with the councilor who was immune to his attacks, Aguri begins to doubt his worth as the current Gai and requests Burai to allow him to go to the Senate to learn more of the Mad? Horrors. However, upon getting into an argument with Ryuga when he tries to help him, Aguri's departure is put on hold when Rian reveals the soul holding capsule that was on the doctor's person. They learn that Mad? Horrors have a means to ration human souls which is being produced by Kaneshiro Foods. Ryuga and Aguri go in as workers to try to infiltrate the work force while Takeru and Rian take another route. Ryuga attempts to trigger the fire alarm to evacuate the civilians but Aguri stops him as it would attract the SG1 and hinder their plans. Eventually, the two groups converge where the souls are stored with Ryuga in tears as his psychometry has him hear the souls' unfilled dreams and desires. Rian then projects Ryuga's psychometry to show the scene of the people having their souls extracted and bodies burned, with Takeru almost losing his composure when it is revealed that Rui's family are among the victims. Also heart broken by the turn of events, Aguri triggers the alarm and tells Ryuga that they will kill every Horror remaining before SG1 comes. As Takeru deals with the Horrors familiars, Ryuga and Aguri confront Kaneshiro Foods manager Tsumazaki as he pursues Rian when she escapes with the crate of souls. With his attacks still having no effect, Aguri follows Ryuga's example to fight with all his force, pinning Tsumazaki down long enough for Ryuga to don the Garo armor and finish the Mad? Horror off. Soon after, with a new found respect for Ryuga, Aguri joins the others to hold a funerary pyre for the souls to be at peace. Elsewhere, Rui looks up at the moon while unconsciously shedding tears for her forgotten family.
