During one of their night missions, their platoon engages with an enemy group during which Yūji forces himself to snipe and kill 9 people after some words of encouragement from his friends but he becomes sick and vomits after each kill. Despite this, his efforts saved their platoon. Eventually, he overcomes this weakness and becomes accustomed to killing in battle. After his platoon's duties have ended Yūji returns to Japan. Millie and Danny see him leave and it is revealed that Millie confessed her love to Yūji only to be rejected, yet she continues to hope and pray for his good fortune. Yūji reunites with Asako in their old mountain home and decides to give his life to her but she quietly replies that she does not need it.
