As Nino asks himself, "Are we really prepared to die?", the members speak of their resolve one after another, and reaffirm their resolve, saying, "We are the Mibu Roshigumi. We will protect the city of Kyoto. We have one will!" During a visit to the Aizu Clan, Miburo is ordered to deal with an assassin. Meanwhile, Nino meets a boy named Seto.
