11

The secret of the bond between the Contracted Monks and Shikabane Hime is revealed. The casket contained the daughter of the founder of the Kōgon Sect, who had resurrected his daughter and preserved her into a Shikabane Hime long ago, and destroying her meant that all bonds were to be broken. Akasha turns the tables, making Hokuto his Shikabane Hime, and kills Hazama. Ouri and Makina find and confront Akasha and Hokuto inside the purification chamber. Akasha explains he became best friends with Hibiki Shijo since childhood, soon becoming lovers with each other. But one day, she became very ill, which led to her death. Akasha decided to make Hibiki his Shikabane Hime. It was Hazama who planned the attack of the Shikabane five years ago, and Hibiki was able to destroy 108 Shikabane during this gruesome battle. However, she turned into a Shikabane, forcing Akasha to kill his own Shikabane Hime. Akasha realized that the concept of gaining entry into heaven was in fact a total lie. After Akasha and Hokuto destroys the purification chamber, Ouri and Makina find new power through friendship as they continue to fight. (Source: Wikipedia)
