Ep. 36: Reiji seeks a cure for Chibi while allies recruit Shiro Kurosawa in Rikyu.

36

Reiji and his companions learn that Chibi is critically ill and may die without intervention. To save him, Reiji embarks on a quest to locate a specific herb. Concurrently, RI-ON prepares to deploy troops to Rikyu to revive Shinryu. In anticipation of Kohei’s return, Maiko, Daisuke, and Rokkaku search for additional warriors to aid their upcoming conflict. They encounter Shiro Kurosawa, a Dragon Drive player from Earth, and discover his dragon, Eager-Striker, trapped behind rocks in a cave. Shiro reveals that Eager-Striker was his closest friend until it attacked him. During this interaction, Kanpa appears to attack Daisuke but actually protects him from tiny bloodsucking dragons. After these creatures are defeated, Shiro refuses Maiko’s invitation to join them, citing his lack of knowledge. Reiji returns with the herb, but Chibi remains unresponsive and begins to glow intensely. Once the glow ceases, Chibi awakens fully recovered.
