Home.Episode Description:
After the Heigus Particle Cannon makes impact, the 14 Garde pilots regroup and attempt to break into the placenta. With her Garde damaged, Ren entrusts Nagate with her last core-piercing projectile before she withdraws from battle. Nagate confronts the Crimson Hawk Moth in a vicious duel, even with daring help from Izana, while Ittan Samari and the seven remaining pilots make their way to destroy the host core of Gauna 542. Kōichi Tsuruuchi exhausts his power supply to break through the last barrier protecting the host core, and the remaining members of the Samari platoon destroy the host core. Meanwhile, Nagate exhausts his ammunition fighting the Crimson Hawk Moth. As a last resort, he fires Tsugumori's left hand holding the core-piercing projectile at the Crimson Hawk Moth, thereby destroying it. Carrying Tsuruuchi with them, Samari and Seii escape to safety with the others as the Interplanetary Missile obliterates Gauna 542. At Sidonia, Ren thanks Nagate for avenging Hō's death, explaining that the Honoka sisters are only five years old, which they have undergone accelerated growth and compressed mental training. Later paying a visit to Norio, Nagate is unable to forgive him, but still expresses desire to fight alongside him.
