Ep. 9: Jibril's chess game restores Sora through Shiro's memory pieces and alliance.
Aired on June 4, 2014

Suspecting tampering with Shiro's past, Jibril challenges her to a chess match to erase memories of Sora. Shiro affirms the authenticity of her recollections and secures victory. Subsequent investigation reveals Sora previously played reversi against Kurami, using identity components as game pieces. Although Sora lost most pieces and faced erasure, three remaining fragments enabled Shiro to preserve her memories. Upon locating these pieces in her room, Shiro arranges them on an invisible board to win the game and restore Sora. Following this success, Sora shares his memories with Kurami to establish an alliance and acquires the authority to manipulate Fil's memories.
