Mana disappeared.
And the only thing she left 
behind was a single letter.
To Everyone
And the only thing she left

Ren, that's... the Strike Ring you gave her.

Episode 04
Save Mana! The Decisions They Each Make
Is it really possible to save 
everyone... save this world?
If you yourself, as the 
unleasher of the red moon,
sacrifice yourself at the Tower of Rebirth,
the path to salvation will open.
To choose one thing means 
to give up something else.
Such is the law of the universe.
Mana Anima.
Tower of Rebirth, come forth!
This is...
Mana...
No good?
No, I can't reach her at all.
Where could Mana have gone?
I don't know.
But now that we know she's not at home 
either, we're out of places to look.
Something must have happened to her.
You were the one who said
our economy would soar if we 
went along with Madarame's plan!
That's rich, coming from the guy who was 
ready to blindly follow the profits.
What?!
More importantly, what's 
going on with the JSDF?
They are already in position.
However, the evacuation of the 
affected area is still underway.
A bit of collateral damage 
can't be avoided.
This is an emergency!
But if our actions lead to 
the loss of humans lives,
it won't be good for the next election.
Of course we can't do that. 
Walpurgis is severely wounded!
I know that, but Mana has disappeared!
What?! Is that really true?
We came here because we thought 
that she might know something.
But she just managed to get to 
sleep with the help of drugs.
What... happened... to Mana?
You need to stay put. 
Your wounds will reopen.
So something happened to her.
She disappeared, without 
saying a word to any of us.
Is there anything you can tell us?
Just promise me one thing.
Believe in her, no matter who she is.
All right.
Mana is a child who was born 
of a human and a monster.
Mana's father was one of the archangels.
He was the angel who ruled 
over death and the moon.
He was also my magic teacher.
After Mana was born, he was 
happy for a short while.
But shortly after,
he noticed that there was something 
sinister surrounding the moon's energy.
That's why he returned to the monster world,
to try to find out the secret of the moon.
It was right around that time 
that I met Mana's father.
He somehow managed to find out 
the hidden secret of the moon,
and who was holding that power.
But when he tried to stop their plans...
But who could have...
I believe it was Miroku.
Mana's probably with Miroku 
right now, as well.
Hold on a second!
Miroku's talking about 
exterminating mankind!
Why would Mana be with her?
Probably for our sake.
Huh?
Mana was here yesterday.
What?!
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I was 
unable to move because of the drugs.
Everything was quite hazy, 
but I was conscious.
Walpurgis...
I'm sorry. These horrible injuries 
happened to you because of me.
You've always gotten hurt for my sake.
I can say it now,
but when we had just met,
I actually wondered a bit 
what your true motives were.
I mean, you liked to gamble 
and had a lot of debt.
And yet you worried more than anyone else,
and nagged and lectured me constantly.
But you were always kind,
and it made me happy because 
I felt like I had an older sister.
Miroku told me that this world 
would be destroyed at this rate.
But that if I used the my father's 
power that I have in my blood
to become the unleasher of the red moon
and sacrifice myself, I could save it.
To be honest, I'm really scared.
But it's strange.
Now, for the first time, I feel 
like I'm connected to my father,
and courage is bubbling up in me.
I'm ridiculous, aren't I?
I wanted to spend more time with everyone!
I couldn't tell them, but I can tell you.
Goodbye, and... I'm going to go.
Mana becoming a sacrifice for our sake?
I will never accept that!
So the "unleasher of the red moon" 
that Miroku talked about was Mana.
Walpurgis, what are we supposed to do?!
I think Miroku intends to use 
the monster power inside Mana
to fully activate the red moon.
You need to get to Mana before that happens.
We'll save her!
Hang on.
Don't overexert yourself! 
You need to lie down!
Leave it to us.
How can I not go?
You should know better than anyone 
that you're in no condition to fight!
This is a gamble.
You know I love to gamble.
All right, then. Let's all go 
together to save Mana!
This is bad! Quick, come take a look!
The Madarame Building is looking very strange.
This might be related to the announcement
CEO Madarame made about 
weaponizing monsters.
The time is near.
The time of the red lunar eclipse, 
the rebirth of the world, is about to begin.
The World Ends...
