Ep. 8: Isao reveals a weapon to the League of Nations while Sakurai investigates a prophetess.
Aired on May 25, 2010
Following the Mukden Incident, Japan seizes Manchuria within six months to establish Manchukuo under Puyi. The League of Nations dispatches V. A. G. R. Bulwer-Lytton to investigate, refusing to recognize the new state. Isao subsequently kidnaps the delegation, revealing a destructive weapon in the Taklamakan Desert comparable to an atomic bomb. He demands they report this to their leaders and relinquish control over colonized nations. Concurrently, Sakurai tasks the group with investigating a prophetess scheduled to meet Puyi. Amidst these political tensions, Aoi unexpectedly spots his lover Shizune Yusa, whom he previously believed to be dead.
