In order to raise morale, the chief sponsors a company trip out into the boonies. Out in the dark wilderness, however, something lurks. Could it be another zombie, or is something else at work here?

Shito and Chika confront the true Butterfly, and the identity of that killer leaves Chika shaken. In the aftermath of the fight, the gang reflects on the nature of being a zombie, and of being dead.

Chasing the murderer known as the Butterfly is no easy task. But some disturbing talk amongst the Butterfly's followers leaves Michiru wondering if there isn't more going on than they realize.

Circumstances surrounding a brutal series of murders lead Chika and Shito to conclude there's an outlaw zombie behind it. Only problem is, they can't figure out how to track the murderer-zombie down. Lucky, that's where Chika's old friend Shiba comes in.

After nearly dying, Michiru makes some life changes. She's got a fresh start on life, except then Chika reveals the real reason she's not dead. They might've taken on more debt to save her life, but she'll work to help them pay off that loan!

Chika and Shito explain their circumstances, and show just what it means to take out a "Zombie Loan"! Then, convincing Michiru to assist them, they lay a trap for the outlaw zombie that's been stalking the girls of their school.

The competition between A-Loan and Z-Loan seems to be over before it's even begun, with A-Loan possessing better skills than their senior zombie hunters. But Z-Loan isn't out of the game yet!

Bekkou attends a meeting of the Ferrymen at the World Fate Organization. After, a newly formed zombie hunting team, A-Loan, challenges Z-Loan to a hunting match!

After saving Shito, there's only one thing left to do: clean up the mess. But the final golem, Phalanx, is now active, and defeating it won't be an easy task!

In order to find Shito, the gang meets with a Grim Reaper. Michiru, Chika, and Soutetsu rush to rescue the "princess" from an abandoned hospital, but golems of flesh block their way.

With her glasses off, Michiru Kita looks at the world a little differently. She sees the mark of death on people's necks--the guiding line for the Grim Reaper's scythe, in a literal way. So what does it mean when two boys at her school show up with solid black rings on their necks?

Prefecturals are over and the Iwatobi Swim Club members are pleased by the progress they have made. A local summer festival gives them an opportunity to relax. When Nagisa finds out that Rin is also at the festival, he orders Rei to follow Rin and make sure that Haruka and Rin do not meet.

Haruka, Makoto, Nagisa, and Rei swim in their individual events. Rin becomes irritated as he remembers watching them swim back in grade school. Afterwards, the four Iwatobi Swim Club members must prepare for the medley relay.

As prefecturals draw near, Haruka and the other swim club members continue to improve. Meanwhile, Rin reveals his motivations for swimming. The swimmers must now show what they have accomplished at the tournament.

There's trouble at the beach. The four swim club members are forced to revisit their motivation to swim. After Rei asks Makoto about his odd behavior during the training camp, Makoto tells them about his past.

Haruka and the other club members decide to hold a training camp to prepare for prefectural. Each member follows his own regimen. However, Rei is unhappy about falling behind and heads back into the ocean at night to practice.
