Ryuuji Sashinami is brought before Dorssian 54th Military Tribunal on the charge of touting JIOR neutrality while constructing Valvrave weapons. At the same time, Shoko expresses her optimism for their future on the Moon to Akira. Raizo begins practicing with the Valvrave Three in order to lengthen its operation during combat. Meanwhile, Shoko along with her fellow students who now form the New JIOR government gather for a photoshoot. Here, Akira opens up to Shoko by speaking for the first time through a phone call. Although she soon erupts into a fit of panic after being overwhelmed by everyone's excitement to hear her speak, which is reminiscent of a traumatic experience she had in the past. Elsewhere, Saki and Haruto go around the city ruins for the day, visiting a bar and a movie theater. As Saki's feelings of wanting companionship are returned by Haruto, they are interrupted as Module 77 meets the Dorssian blockade en route to the Moon. As Module 77 prepares for battle, L-elf has the Valvraves move the Module away from the blockade, causing the Dorssians to peruse and break formation which coincides with his plan to have the Valvrave One's Harakiri Blade destroy them in one strike. Meanwhile, Admiral Delius Wartenberg threatens Ryuuji in an attempt to get Shoko to surrender. While she struggles to decide on a course of action, Valvrave One's Harakiri Strike annihilates the Dorssian forces, subsequently killing Ryuuji, much to Shoko's agony. Meanwhile, Cain, having predicted L-elf's course of actions, makes a surprise attack beneath Module 77, infiltrating it with a squadron of Dorssian soldiers and using a drilling Mech to begin ploughing straight through the heart of the Module. Haruto has Saki return him to the Module. As Saki laments on Haruto's actions to save Shoko, he surprises her with a sudden marriage proposal.
