Ep. 5: Shintaro schließt sich der Mekakushi Dan an, während Konoha Hiyori und Hibiya von Entführern befreit.

Following the events of the terrorist attack, Shintaro awakes and finds himself in an unfamiliar girl's room. He immediately asks Ene for an explanation, but she teases him by letting him beg for the answer. She demands that he takes off his clothes and continues begging, so Shintaro follows her orders, when all of a sudden Marry enters the room to bring him some tea. To punish him for startling Marry with this sight, he is chained to the bed, while the members of the Mekakushi Dan explain the situation to him. Shintaro is informed that he and Ene are now official members of the gang, despite him not even getting a chance to disagree. Following, the group prepares to head to the Amusement Park together, as promised to Ene for helping out with the terrorists. Shintaro, however, does not join them and instead leaves the Mekakushi Dan headquarters. On the street, he runs into Konoha, who is searching for Hiyori and Hibiya. Meanwhile, the gang is on their way to the park and talks about the origins of their group, revealing that the original founder of the group died two years ago by committing suicide. Together, they head to the grave of their founder, to introduce the new members to her. At the same time, Konoha asks Shintaro for help on his search. While he describes the looks of his two friends, he spots them being kidnapped. To prevent this, he uses his inhuman strength to fight his way to Hibiya and Hiyori, but right as they are saved, a truck threatens to crush them. In the last moment, a path to the Heat Haze is opened and swallows the four of them. In the meantime, the Mekakushi Dan has arrived at the grave and Ene takes a closer look at the concerned girl, only to get the shocking revelation that the founder of the gang is no other but Shintaro's deceased best friend, Ayano.
