Aired on May 26, 2017

AnchoR escapes her destiny as the annihilator by formally registering Naoto as her master. From within her cube, Vermouth materializes, having previously transmitted a shortwave signal to Marie. He informs the group that the massive weapon Yatsukahagi operates using electromagnetic technology. This same technology is currently active in Akihabara, causing the city's gears to cease all movement. The revelation highlights the destructive potential of the weapon and the immediate disruption occurring in the urban environment, linking the weapon's power source directly to the widespread mechanical failure observed in the district.
