Details


The episode starts with a blue haired man running away from the two Executioners, Gunji and Kiriwar. The blue haired man, named Takeru, is carrying a cross around his neck. 
 
Akira and Keisuke have parted from Rin and are walking down the street. Keisuke reflects of how cold Akira was, and is worried for him, when suddenly they run into Motomi. They notice that Motomi was waiting for them, and asks the two if he can join them as they make their way to Abritro’s castle. Motomi claims he has some business to attend to there. 
 
They reach the castle, this time Keisuke is determined to join Akira in Igura. They three enter Arbitro’s office, on

their way they see a massive metal door, which Motomi explains is the Coliseum where one fights Il Re. Keisuke is told to enter Arbitro’s office alone, and Akira and Motomi are left waiting outside. As they wait, Arbitro passes them. Arbitro and Motomi meet, more like reunite. Arbitro snaps, and tells Motomi never to return to the castle. Arbitro then enters his office in order to speak to Keisuke. Motomi explains that because Arbitro’s dog took a liking to Akira, so has Arbitro. 
 
In Arbitro’s office, he explains to Keisuke the rules of Igura. Keisuke is given 5 dog tags; each dog tag is labelled like a card from a standard deck of cards. Players fight each other in order to get a ‘Royal Flush’. When they get a Royal Flush, they may challenge Il Re, the king. Each player is meant to wear one tag visibly to show that they are playing the game. Suddenly Gunji and Kiriwar burst in with a dead body and claim to Arbitro that they have ‘finish the job’. Arbitro snaps at them, but the mavericks don’t listen. They then leave to finish up their other jobs. Arbitro explains the Executioners importance, and how they are the referees of Igura. Keisuke meets back up with Akira and Motomi. Akira is still unnaturally cold to Keisuke, and Keisuke gets upset.
