Broken Wings

Overview

The strangers are a part of the police department. They are conducting experiments with the idea that the human component can be extracted from the Orphenochs allowing them to kill the monsters. Yuji and Takumi decide to talk to the police. They believe they can convince them that not all Orphenochs are bad. Mari is afraid that she will eventually become an Orphenoch because of the Smart Brain experiments. Masato assures her that the experiment was a failure. Yuka turns herself into the police in hopes of keeping her friends safe. She is brought to the secret research facility. Takumi and Yuji meet with the police and offer to trade themselves for Yuka. An Orphenoch already at the center rescues Yuka. Takumi and Yuji come upon them and allow the Orphenoch who helped to escape. After Takumi answers Keitaro's call, Yuji and Yuka are surprised by the police. The show concludes with Takumi defending the Orphenoch who saved Yuka.
