While Hikaru successfully defeats Akaishi and avenges Kimiko and Tasuke, he is unable to kill him due to the Over Demons system taking a heavy toll on him. To Ikki and his allies' shock, Daiji kills Akaishi to take over his role of protecting Giff. Vice manages to prevent Daiji from forming a pact with Giff, who banishes Vice to the latter's dimension. In the hopes of reviving Kagero and restoring Daiji's balance, Hiromi is forced to temporarily reassume the mantle of Kamen Rider Demons despite his condition. Meanwhile, Masumi's condition worsens after resealing Vail in the Demons Driver and transfusing his inner demon to George.
