Ep. 6: Shido arranges a hot springs trip for Tohka and Yoshino amidst AST and Ratatoskr tensions.

Shido organizes a visit to Tenguu Gokuraku Hot Springs for Tohka and Yoshino. Kyōhei Kannazuki manipulates Kotori into joining, but his ulterior motives result in a week of manual labor. Meanwhile, Ryōko Kusakabe learns that DEM Corporation reinforcements are incoming and that the Spirit alert level has cancelled the group's vacation. Persuaded by an AST member, she decides the AST will visit the hot springs instead. Origami initially shows little interest but changes her mind after overhearing Shido’s plans with Tohka. During the journey, Shido’s affection toward Yoshino frustrates Tohka, causing her to collapse the road and disrupt the AST’s underground train. To prevent conflict, Ratatoskr blocks the AST’s path. Kotori orders Date Town into Battle Mode Level 2, authorizing fire on the AST. Stray ordnance sends Yoshinon flying, prompting Shido to search for her amidst the firefight. He nearly dies from Ratatoskr’s Destruct Mode before Tohka rescues him under Origami’s watch. The group eventually reaches the hot springs, which are partially frozen due to Yoshino’s actions. Kyōhei has dug a new spring that Kotori and the others enjoy. The episode concludes with Mana Takamiya arriving in Japan.
