Kagura and her comrades hatch a scheme that could bring two reluctant lovers together. Meanwhile, a rogue exorcist attempts to steal Yomi’s place in the family business.

Yomi and Kagura venture into the darkest depths of the subway to exterminate a hoard of evil spirits. When the demons begin to look too human, Kagura hesitates and only an unforgiving ally can save her.

As the story reverts to the past, a young Kagura is welcomed to her new home by none other than Yomi. The two girls forge a fast friendship that can only be interrupted by the occasional exorcism.

A rival supernatural commando squad, the SDCD, is called in to clean up the mess left behind by their counterparts. What they discover will leave them reeling in disbelief. Could one of their own be responsible for the massacre?

The SDCD gets a lock on Yomi’s location, and Kagura sets out to cut down the monster she once considered her sister. Should she fail, the end of the world will surely follow.

When Kagura’s father proves unable to stop Yomi’s killing spree, the director and her dwindling SDCD counterattack unit mobilize in a daring attempt to forever silence their former comrade.

The action has come full circle, and the painful truth can no longer be avoided. Yomi’s soul is consumed by evil; Noriyuki and Kagura must stop her murderous rampage - or watch their few remaining friends die in vain.

An elite squadron trained to combat the supernatural responds to reports of invisible monsters terrorizing Tokyo. Their mission is complicated by the appearance of blue butterflies and a katana-wielding mystery woman.

Having failed to obtain the Nirvash for their own use, Japan goes forward with a dangerous experiment to create a Coral plant for themselves. Generation Bleu sends Ao's team to stop them at all costs.

Ao discovers how duplicitous adults can be and, along with Fleur, he rebels in his own way to stay true to what he believes is right.

As this mysterious Truth wreaks havoc at Generation Bleu HQ, his motivations remain enigmatic, but they seem to have something to do with the Nirvash. And by extension, as Nirvash's pilot, with Ao.

Ao gets a taste of what it's like to be part of a real mission and a better sense of just how high the stakes are. Meanwhile, strange things are happening around the world, apparently driven by one mysterious individual.

Having thrown in his lot with Generation Bleu, Ao returns with Team Pied Piper to their headquarters in Switzerland. There, he finds himself out of his element and struggling to figure out how he fits in to their plans.

With renewed resolve to fight to protect the island, Ao takes on the G-Monster with some help. And in the aftermath, Ao begins to learn that the world is more complicated than he had thought.

Ao has always faced discrimination as a foreigner, but his newly revealed blue hair and involvement in the recent crisis spur the islanders to take action against him. And in the process, Ao learns more about his mother.

Together with his father for the first time, Ao has many questions for Renton. As the heartbreaking answers are revealed, Ao makes his choice.

The complicated relationship between Ao, Naru, and Truth comes to a head. As they try to sort things out, a stranger appears and he seems to have some uncanny knowledge.

The confrontation with Truth brings to light new truths about him and the strange IFO-like craft called the Canon that is now a part of him. And these inconvenient truths begin to change things for Naru and for the Allied Forces.

Team Pied Piper works with Japan and the Secrets to hold up their end of the agreement that Blanc forged before he died. And Elena, now with the Allied Forces, struggles to come to terms with her true identity.

With Blanc gone and the Generation Bleu Headquarters beseiged by the Allied Forces, Ao and the others must figure out what they believe in and whether it's worth fighting for.
