Former hitman Ryuji survives a yakuza shooting and receives facial plastic surgery from an unknown doctor at a dilapidated hospital. He reunites with his girlfriend Yoko, who fails to recognize him, allowing him to reintroduce himself as Kenji. They spend time at an amusement park and a hotel, but Ryuji later discovers he killed a yakuza leader and a female student without memory of the events. When he returns to the hospital, Miyu confronts the doctor, revealed to be the shinma Oh-Shu. Although Larva and Reiha struggle against the entity, Miyu defeats Oh-Shu. Ryuji eventually regains his original face, but Yoko, confused by the transformation, stabs him in the chest with a butcher knife.
