“Village Rule #79: Don't take snacks as a bribe.”

Azami Mochizuki (望月 あざみ Mochizuki Azami) is a member of the second generation Imperial Combat Revue's Flower Division.

Appearance

Azami is a Japanese girl with short black hair and purple eyes. She wears a strange outfit with a light yellow maid's apron, a violet skirt, long kimono sleeves, kunoichi stockings and high sole yellow sandals.

Personality

Azami is shown to be very dedicated to her role as both a ninja and a member of the Flower Division. The young kunoichi would usually perform her training and make a habit of hiding around the Grand Imperial Theatre and keep an eye on anyone whom she finds suspicious. Such cases include performing water ninjustu arts in the bathhouse despite not intending to bathe and trying to capture some of Mr. I's henchmen who were pursuing her.

The young kunoichi also tends to correct her peers whenever they do not think of her as a ninja. When Seijuro Kamiyama points out her bright colored outfit does not fit the image of a ninja, she would counter by explaining that her clothes allow her to blend in with civilians and that ninjas wearing black clothing just only cries out the obvious to anyone who thinks of that stereotype.

Despite her role as a ninja, Azami has a childish personality and curiosity that befits her age. Most of her time, she would go to Hiromi Hongou's shop to buy manju sweets and once even could not resist pressing the buttons on a Peanut statue to find out its functions. Her foster grandfather Yattansai Mochizuki also holds onto her picture diary that contains records of daily training as a kunoichi when she was much younger.

Azami also has a tendency to bring up some of her '108 village rules' she learned to suit the occasion, even if some of those rules sound unnecessary and have almost nothing to do with being a ninja. For example, when Seijuro attempted to calm her down by offering snacks as a LIPS choice, Azami would recite a village rule where she must 'not take snacks as bribes' (after she was almost tempted to accept the offer.)

After Seijuro gave her encouraging advice and treated her like a real ninja during her final test to become the master of the Mochizuki Ninja Arts, Azami would treat her relationship with her captain in an affectionate, familial manner. Such cases include hanging out together in her room to do some ninja training while treating it as a game, and when she and Seijuro go on a 'date' to a Santa dress-up festival.

Background

Azami was abandoned by her parents when she was a baby. She was found by Yattansai Mochizuki, who will raise her and teach her about how to become a ninja. Unknown to Azami, Yattansai will lie to her by saying that her parents will return if she becomes a perfect ninja (in reality, he was trying to hide her the fact that she was abandoned).

At some point, Azami will join the Imperial Combat Revue's Flower Division alongside Sakura Amamiya, Hatsuho Shinonome and Clarissa Snowflake.

History

Sakura Wars (2019)

Azami's Ending

Azami and Seijuro go to a theme park to get on many rides like a swan boat and a haunted house. She tells Seijuro she wants to ride a rollercoaster. The young man says that while he thinks a ninja like her will be fine, he has some reservations about going in himself but accepts to go. Both enter the cart and don't move as the cart goes up their first slope. When the cart goes down the slope, Azami appears excited at first before being terrified by the ride's many turns. As the cart goes inside a tunnel, Azami screams in terror.

After exiting the rollercoaster, a traumatized Azami goes to sit on a bench where Seijuro asks her if she's okay. The young girl says that she's fine but that her knees are still shaking. The young girl sees her friend walk away as she hopes he's not mad. Seijuro comes back with some ice cream which pleases the young ninja. Seijuro sits down before asking her what does she want to do next whether it's the petting zoo, the Ferris wheel or the carousel. Azami gently suggests they hang out a little on the bench before closing her eyes. Seijuro smiles as the young girl puts her head on his shoulder. Azami holds Seijuro's left hand while telling him she loves him.

Sakura Wars the Animation

A year after Genan's defeat, Azami and the Flower Division were left in the care of their comrade Sakura, who was been named Acting Captain to lead the Flower Division in the absence of Seijuro Kamiyama (who was sent on a secret mission in Russia).

Episode 1 : The Curtain Rises! The New Combat Revue!

A week after Seijuro's departure, the Flower Division prepares itself for the new show, Freezing Soul, which serves as Sakura's first production as Acting Captain. After rehearsal was over, Azami left the place.

Azami appears hanging upside down from the ceiling in the hallway, greeting her comrade Sakura who was searching for her. Sakura then asks the girl where she's been with the younger girl replying she was ''elsewhere''. Sakura tells Azami that she just can't disappear but Azami says that Village Rule 29 applies to the theater and that her actions be secrets. With a sigh, Sakura tells Azami to get in costume as the show is about to start while saying that she should not try to leave the building. Sakura then leaves the scene.

Azami and the other members of the Flower Division join Sakura to greet Seijuro in the hallway before noticing that a new girl is alongside. When Azami asks for the girl's identity, Seijuro introduces her as Klara and that she's joining the Flower Division as part of a trial basis. Azami and her comrades express their surprise at Klara joining the Flower Division.

The girls return to the dressing room to prepare themselves for the show. Azami says that a storm is brewing due to Sakura's frustration about Klara with Anastasia and Hatsuho agreeing. Sakura tells her friends to stop being dramatic and that Seijuro probably brought Klara at the theater for a reason. Hatsuho questions Klara's identity as probably a secret love child of Seijuro before Azami calls him a bastard. Frustrated, Sakura asks the girls if they're gone crazy and what do they think Seijuro is with Azami calling him a man filled with risks. Sakura is upset by their words as Kaoru enters the room and tells everyone to take their places for the beginning of the show. Azami and the girls do really well as their performance impresses Klara who watching the show from afar alongside Seijuro.

After the show, Azami returns to the dressing room while praising her comrades for their great performance.

Later on, Azami and the Flower Division meet in the Control Room where Sumire tells the Flower Division that a major incident happened in the outskirts of Petrograd in Russia a week ago. Sumire tells the cover story for the incident was an unfortunate explosion but that the truth was far more disturbing : the Moscow Combat Revue was attacked which caused their airship to crash. She says that only one member of the Revue was accounted for while the others are considered missing for the time being. It is revealed that Seijuro and members of other Revues, which include Lancelot of the London Combat Revue and Elise of the Berlin Combat Revue, were dispatched to investigate and secure Klara who is the only surviving member of the attack. Seijuro reveals that two mysterious individuals appear to be after Klara, one of them being as powerful as a greater demon. The young man says he brought Klara because she needed somebody to stand for her as she has lost her comrades. The girls understand the situation as they're like one big family. Azami and the girls promise Seijuro they'll take good care of Klara.

Suddenly, sirens are heard as demons appear in the capital, running straight for the theater. In response, Seijuro orders the Flower Division to deploy and fight the demons. Azami and the girls climb aboard their robots and land in front of the theater, ready to fight against the enemy. Azami succesfully repels the demons by dropping bombs while her friends kill the remaining monsters, succesfully defending the theater.

After the fight, the Flower Division go outside to say goodbye to Seijuro as he's about to return to the WLOF headquarters. Azami and the others watch Seijuro leaving the theater without knowing that a mysterious black-caped individual is watching from afar.

Episode 2 : Identity Unknown! A Mysterious Foe Appears

Azami is hanging out cleaning her kunai in the Parlor alongside Hatsuho who is reading a newspaper. Reading about White Cape's recent vigilante activities, the young shrine maiden angrily reacts to the article before the young ninja tells her it's too early for yelling. Hatsuho slams the newspaper on the table while asking her friend how she can remain quiet while White Cape is wreaking havoc. Azami wonders if White Cape really angers Hatsuho that much before the older girl describes the vigilante's actions and unknown origins. However, Azami replies that White Cape probably did nothing wrong as their actions involve stopping government officials abusing their power against normal people. While Hatsuho admits that some people call White Cape a hero, she says that the mysterious figure will not fool her as they have ''revealed'' how horrible they are. Azami asks how with Hatsuho to replying that the vigilante has abducted some poor kid in broad daylight and in public. However, Azami replies by saying that no one seems to have reported the kid's abduction and that the authorities are not looking into the kid's whereabouts. Hatsuho replies by saying that such thing does not matter and that while the authorities might not care, she does. Azami calmly tells her that she's getting herself worked up. Hatsuho angrily bites the newspaper while saying that things would have worked differently has she been there to take care of the abducter. She says that this mean that she will be the one to take White Cape down (which is better according to her). Azami simply replies by saying that Hatsuho truly frightens her at times.

Both girls are approached by Sakura and Klara. Sakura says that she has decided to give Klara the ''grand theatrical tour'' as the demons showed up before they could show the place. Sakura then introduces Azami and Hatsuho whose friendly behaviour slightly scares Klara, causing her to hide behind Sakura.

Azami is later hanging out in the Parlor alongside Hatsuho, Anastasia, Clarissa as they see Sakura and Klara leaving the Theater to visit the city. Clarissa tells her comrades to give Klara some time while saying that everybody felt the same during their first day as part of the Flower Division. Azami then comments about how the demons, who were inactive for months, reappear on the same day that Klara arrived in Tokyo and if was truly a coincidence. Hatsuho replies by saying that demons popping out is unheard of and that the ninja is overthinking things. Anastasia wonders if Azami might have a point as Seijuro is still seeking answers and that no one knows about what truly happened to the Moscow Combat Revue's airship. Hatsuho expresses her disbelief at how the other girls can think Klara may be involved with her Revue's downfall. She tells them to remember that Seijuro has brought Klara to Tokyo and asked them to treat her like family and that they should accept her. All girls agree with Hatsuho's comments and that they should offer Klara the same treatment.

Azami and the others are later warned by Kaoru that Sakura and Klara got attacked by a ''weirdo in a cape and a mask'' who Hatsuho thinks is White Cape. While Kaoru says that they can't be certain that White Cape is the attacker, Hatsuho says that White Cape is the only possibility. Azami then asks why the vigilante will go after Sakura with the shrine maiden asking why not. Anastasia says that the reason is moot and that they must help Sakura.

Azami joins Hatsuho, Anastasia and Clarissa to help Sakura and Klara against their assaillant. Azami gives Sakura her sword which she forgot at the theater. All girls gang up on White Cape before Hatsuho tells the enemy that he should make things easy for himself. However, Azami and Clarissa wonder if this is truly White Cape as the man's mask, cape and outfit aren't white but black. Hatsuho tells them to focus on the most important as he has has attacked one of their own. Klara runs behind Clarissa as Sakura approaches Black Cape with her sword. She attacks the assailant but her sword is stopped by Black Cape's arms. Sakura is shocked by this and deduces that the man has metal armor under his clothes. Sakura is then kicked into a nearby wall before Black Cape attacks Clarissa and takes Klara hostage. Black Cape jumps on a nearby rooftop before Klara is taken by a white-caped woman who came out of nowhere. White Cape jumps down in the alley and puts down Klara on the ground before fighting Black Cape in a sword battle. Sakura attacks Black Cape on White Cape's words, slicing him in the abdomen. Cornered, Black Cape jumps up on a building and escapes.

Azami and the Flower Division return to the Imperial Theater where Sakura takes Klara back to her room. There, Klara states that she doesn't think she should be here. Sakura tells the other girls about Klara's words which perplexes the group. However, the other girls start to suspect that Klara must be responsible for the Moscow Combat Revue's downfall. Sakura is upset by their words and reprimands her friends as Klara has already been through enough and that they promised Seijuro to accept Klara into their family. As all girls stay silent, the room suddenly becomes dark.

The girls go the window and see a massive airship appear above the skies of Tokyo. A mysterious male voice introduces the airship as the Sevastopol which is being operated by the Moscow Combat Revue. Hatsuho and Sakura are shocked by the announcement as the Moscow Combat Revue was thought to be missing.

Episode 3 : Tokyo Trembles! The New Moscow Combat Revue!

Azami and her comrades run outside in the courtyard to see the Sevastopol. Suddenly, five masked individuals jump off from the airship and land in the courtyard. Hatsuho angrily insults the arrivants for suddenly appearing in Tokyo while demanding for their identity and if they're searching for a fight. She also comments that they're messing with the Imperial Combat Revue. Then, a young man lands in front of the members of the Imperial Combat Revue's Flower Division. Telling the group not to be alarmed by his ominous arrival, the young man politely introduces himself as Valery Kaminski, Captain of the Moscow Combat Revue.

Azami and her comrades follow Kaminski in the Dining Hall. He sits down with Kaoru Rindou while the Flower Division and Klara watch. Sakura then asks Kaminski about the conflicting reports that the Moscow Combat Revue was taken down in an attack. Kaminski tells the Flower Division that he and his Revue were about to welcome a new member in the outskirts of Petrograd as part of a task given to them by the WLOF until their airship was attacked by an unknown adversary. He mentions that while the entire Revue survived the attack, they will forever be carrying burdens and be scarred by horrible burn injuries, forcing them to wear long black coats and metal helmets. However, he says that because of the attack, the group was able to revive from their ashes like a phoenix as the ''New Moscow Combat Revue''. Kaoru says that she's relieved that Kaminski's group are safe but asks what is the purpose of their visit. Hatsuho tells Kaminski that a sudden arrival in Tokyo will lead to people thinking he's up to no good. He states they have come as part of a family matter.

Right after he spoke, one of the Moscow Combat Revue members, who is revealed to be called Leyla, steps forward and takes off her coat and mask, revealing herself as a beautiful silver-haired young woman. The woman approaches Klara as Hatsuho tells her to back off as she is scaring the young girl. Leyla tells her to come along but Klara does not seem to remember her, much to Leyla's shock. Kaoru tells Kaminski that Klara doesn't remember anything from her past and that while her amnesia could be temporary, they can't be certain. However, Kaminski says that it does not matter and that his Revue will personally take care of Klara's recovery as she's one of their own. Klara is again approached by Leyla who keeps telling her to come back but the young girl is terrified. Leyla is stopped by Hatsuho who angrily says that she does not like the idea of returning an amnesiac defenceless Klara and that she's a member of the Imperial Combat Revue. The other members of the Flower Division agree with Hatsuho that they will never give a terrified child to strangers with Azami stating that her village rules will never allow such a thing. But Leyla responds by saying they will take Klara by force if necessary. Hatsuho provokes Leyla by attempting to punch her but the other girl's right eye glows red granting her unknown strength to tighten Hatsuho's fist. Kaminski tells Leyla to stop as Revues are made to fight demons and not others. Kaminski insists the Flower Division to give Klara back but Sakura refuses, telling him that they were ordered by their Captain, Seijuro Kamiyama, to watch over Klara and they will keep her until further notice or news from him. Kaminski then asks where Seijuro is and when will he return. Even though Kaoru says that he's currently on a mission in Europe and that the date of his return is unknown, Kaminski still insists for Klara's return.

Sumire unexpectly enters the room asking what is happening. Kaminski, surprised to see a legendary performer of the Imperial Combat Revue, stands up and calls her the heroic woman of Tokyo. The young man creates a full rose bouquet with Azami noting that he only gave one single rose to Sakura (Anastasia says it's because Sakura is not as famous as her Commander much to Sakura's annoyance). When Sumire asks what this is, Kaminski says that Sumire's beauty could thaw the coldest heart while noting the cold Siberian tundra possibly froze his. Wanting to give some thanks of her own, Sumire brings Kaminski to her office where they both discuss about Klara.

Azami and her friends follow Sumire and Kaminski to Sumire's office. The two are talking while the Flower Division is eavesdropping. Sumire says that while she's the Commander, her hands are tied up as it was Captain Seijuro Kamiyama who ordered the Flower Division to watch over Klara and that the young girl will remain with them under Kamiyama's orders to the Flower Division's relief. However, Kaminski says that he will forcibly request Klara's return under a sanction's decree. He says that an official injonction will not take too much time and that they will meet again. After his meeting with Sumire, Kaminski leaves the theater with Leyla and his group with Azami and the others watching.

Later, Sumire summons Azami and the Flower Division to her office to tell them she received a call from the WLOF which confirmed Kaminski is indeed with the Moscow Combat Revue. She tells them that since Kaminski told the truth, it will not take long before an official order tells them to give them Klara. Hatsuho is frustrated by the news but Clarissa says that they cannot ignore an order coming from above. Klara is worried until she feels a repulsive feeling. When Sakura asks her what's wrong, Klara tells her that ''they're coming''. The others are concerned about her words just before the alarm rings, alerting them that the demons are coming. The Flower Division deploys to fight the demon while Klara goes to observe the battle from the Control Room.

Sakura leads the charge against the invaders who appeared near Tokyo Bay but are surprised to find only one demon of a gargantuan size. Sumire says that the demon's size does not matter as they clearly outnumber it. However, Hatsuho starts acting strange by immediately attacking. Sakura tries to reason with her friend but Hatsuho says that she's in a bad mood today and that she wants to release some anger. Hatsuho gets hit away by the demon who is revealed to be surprisingly fast despite its great size. After Hatsuho got hit by the demon, Sakura runs to protect her friend who was about to get squashed by the demon's foot. Azami, Anastasia and Clarissa attack to distract the beast while Sakura asks her friend if she's alright.

Kaminski suddenly contacts the Flower Division during their battle asking them if they desire assistance as their airship is located not far from their current location. Hatsuho talks back by refusing, saying that if it is discovered that they had to rely on another Combat Revue for assistance, it will not do any favors to the Flower Division's reputation. Kaminski replies by saying that such thing is not important in times of crisis and turns over to Sakura to leave her to make the choice as Captain. Sakura refuses saying they do not need any help. Kaminski understands the decision and tells Sakura the Moscow Combat Revue will remain in standby in case they should mobilize and leaves. Sakura says that it's not up to the Moscow Combat Revue to defend Tokyo but them. Under Sakura's words, the Flower Division follow the demon which keeps advancing towards the Imperial Theater.

The Flower Division corner the beast which couldn't advance any further bacause of the rising bridge. Sakura asks the others if they're ready with Hatsuho replying that she will take the demon down this time. However, Sakura says she won't and that while she was lucky it didn't kill her, it will be better and safer to fight as a team. Hatsuho sacarsticaly answers back with her friend asking her what's her problem. Unknownly to Sakura, her childhood friend has bitter feelings about not being chosen as Acting Captain by Seijuro. Hatsuho says that can do this on her own and ask Sakura to stand down. Hatsuho charges much to Sakura's surprise. While Sakura is worried, Anastasia suggests to use Hatsuho's tenacity to their full adavantage and create coordinated attacks. Everyone weakens the demon with Hatsuho using her special attack Ceremonial Hammer to deal the final blow. With the demon seemingly down, Hatsuho expresses her excitement but Sakura sees the demon stand up and tries to warn Hatsuho. However, before Hatsuho can react, the demon knocks Hatsuho's hammer into the river leaving her defenceless and knocking her Mugen down on the floor. Sakura tries to save her friend but gets knocked away while Azami, Anastasia and Clarissa attack from afar but to no avail. Unable to move, Hatsuho screams as she's about to get crushed before a massive energy blast comes from the sky and hits the beast. Five mysterious black Spiricle Strikers belonging to the Moscow Combat Revue land down in front of the demon. Leyla, who was piloting one of them, mocks the Flower Division's lack of power and tells them to witness true power. The Moscow Combat Revue attack in tandem to succesfully destroy the beast surprising the Flower Division. After witnessing that, Hatsuho slams her own fists in frustration on her command board.

Later, Azami and the Flower Division are on the bridge as Hatsuho's Kobu gets carried away by Reiji. Kaminski and Leyla approach while taunting the Flower Division. Kaminski looks at Klara and warns Sumire that demons will keep appearing in Tokyo as long as Klara remains in the city. Both he and Leyla leave the scene, with Sakura lowering her head in disapointment thinking Kaminski says they failed to protect the city and Klara. The Flower Division remain silent as Hatsuho screams to the heavens in frustration for her actions.

Episode 4 : Friendship in Full Bloom! Thousand Year Cherry Blossoms!

Azami, alongside Clarissa and Anastasia, are leaning on the Control Room's door to listen a conversation between Sumire and Seijuro about the mysterious resurgence of the Moscow Combat Revue. The door accidently opens making the three girls drop in. Standing up, the three girls salute Seijuro with the latter asking where are Sakura and Hatsuho. All girls make a sad face before telling Seijuro about Hatsuho's depression after their last battle.

Azami and the others are brought into the Parlor by Sakura who shows them a note from Hatsuho saying that she went back home. With a grim face, Clarissa worries that they might not see Hatsuho ever again. Sakura tries to say that it's fine and that maybe Hatsuho went back for the spring festival season. Azami says that she might come back when the festival is over. Sakura and Klara, who wants to come along, then leave the Theater with Komachi telling them goodbye.

After they left, Azami jumps in front of Komachi with the latter saying that she scared the crap out of her. Azami asks her for assistance with Komachi saying that help is her middle name for the right price. Azami asks her to investigate the truth about the incident behind the Moscow Combat Revue. Komachi says that if Azami is asking her to get all the way up to the Sevastopol, it's going to cost her around 1000 yen. Azami takes out her wallet to check on her money but replies that she can't afford it as the price is far too steep. However, Komachi says that the Captain already asked her to be on the case. She then pats Azami's head with the young girl smiling.

Azami later went out to shop. As she came to the Theater, Clarissa (who was cleaning) asks her she picked up some dragon fried rice but the young ninja replies that it was closed. After entering the Theater's lobby, Komachi waves her hand at Azami to see her at her shop. Komachi then shows a picture (which was really difficult to obtain) which was taken the day of the incident. While the picture appears to just show a crater, Komachi uses a magnifying glass on the picture to show Klara standing in the middle of the crater much to Azami's surprise. Komachi comments on how Klara was unharmed from the incident but that her comrades were not as lucky. After that, Azami says that she will take of the rest and leaves the Theater to search for Klara who went with Sakura to the Shinonome Shrine.

Azami observes Klara while she and Sakura help Hatsuho clean and prepare the shrine for the spring festival. While the girls are chasing away some bats that came out of the shrine, Azami notes that it looks fun.

Azami continues observing Klara during the day. As she sees Sakura and Klara enjoying the festival in matching flower-patterned yukatas, Azami feels some jealousy about not having fun and wearing beautiful outfits but then retracts her comments as Village Rule 44 stipulates a ninja should not wear flashy outfits.

Azami keeps watching Klara as she hangs out behind the shrine with Sakura and Hatsuho. Suddenly, Azami notices Klara's left eye glow with a red light as she holds into Sakura and Hatsuho's hands. A powerful light shines as the Thousand Year Cherry Tree suddenly becomes to bloom again. After the light disappear, everyone is surprised to see that the cherry tree bloomed in all it's beauty. Remembering the red glow from Klara's eye, Azami suspects that the young girl is hiding something related to the incident of the Moscow Combat Revue.

Episode 5 : The Goofball Detective Combo! Find Klara's Secret!

Sometime after the spring festival, Azami is sitting in her room as she thinks back to what she saw back at the Shinonome Shrine. The young ninja thinks back to the red glow she witnessed in Klara's eye before she used her strange power to make the Thousand Year Cherry Blossom tree bloom again. She theorizes that Klara could be a saboteur tied to the attack on the Moscow Combat Revue and that it is the case, the whole Theater will be at risk. The young girl says that she will not allow something to happen to her home and family and that she will go to the bottom of this as she's a ninja.

Azami goes to spy on Klara as she walks over to the Dining Room along with Sakura and Hatsuho. Azami thinks that Sakura and Hatsuho have already been entangled in Klara's hands and that she will have to be prudent. She is suddenly surprised by her comrade Clarissa who spotted her while asking her what she's doing. Using her secret shadow ninja art, Azami grabs Clarissa and drags her behind the staircase. Azami asks her friend if she wants to be the cause of the Theater's downfall. Not understanding what her friend means, Clarissa asks her about what she meant. Azami tells her about her suspicions on Klara and how she plans to spy on her. She says that they cannot ignore the circumstances around the Moscow Combat Revue and that they must make sure that their Revue is safe. She then asks Clarissa what will she do if something happens that they could have prevented. Clarissa agrees that she could not live with herself if something does happen. Clarissa accepts to join her on her mission mostly because she hopes the case will serve as inspiration for her next screenplay. Suddenly, Reiji, who was eavesdropping on the girls, says he wants to be part of the case too.

The three then observe Klara and the others as they hang out in the Dining Room. Reiji says that he cannot allow the Theater to be in danger while Seijuro is absent. While commenting that Seijuro is too ''by the book'', he also says that he's better at being a leader then Seijuro with Clarissa saying that she forgot that Seijuro and Reiji knew each other from a long time. Confused about why Clarissa is encouraging Reiji, Azami then tells her comrades to stop reminiscing and that Klara is the main point right now. Reiji then offers to give the girls some items that could help them in their case like memos that melt in water, ink that disappears after drying and the ''classic disguise'' but both girls reject the items (with Azami saying that she already has the perfect disguise). Azami goes back to spying before being caught by Hatsuho who grabs her by the back of her clothes. Hatsuho asks the young girl if she's too impatient to wait for breakfast and to make herself useful. Azami tries to defend herself as Clarissa (who clearly doesn't want get in trouble) goes to help Klara set up the plates. Azami is taken to a seat by Hatsuho while Clarissa and Klara bring the food. As Azami asks if it's too early for such a big meal, a grouchy Hatsuho tells her to eat hoping that it will make her mood better. Azami eats not knowing her odd behaviour makes Sakura suspicious.

After eating, Azami go to watch enter the big scene while regretting eating much made her tummy hurt. Clarissa joins her as they follow Klara who goes in the backstage. This confuses Azami as it's outside rehearsal hours. Both girls follow their comrade behind the scene. As Azami observes, Sakura catches Azami by her clothes saying that she was following Klara just as she suspected. Clarissa then approaches Sakura and tries to defend the young ninja by saying that she had writer's block and that Azami was helping her in creating a gripping detective story. Both girls tell Sakura they're running around the Theater for their research and to pay no attention. A nervous Klara tells Sakura to go which makes Sakura let her friends go before telling them to not scare kids anymore today.

After evading Sakura, the two girls go the Dining Room where Azami praises Clarissa for making Sakura believe her lie. However, Clarissa comments that it wasn't really a lie as their next play is a detective story. Both girls keep following Klara as she goes at the basement. Thinking Klara entered the bathroom, both girls enter to search for her while wondering why she's taking a bath at this hour. They open the bath door only to find Reiji bathing. Embarrassed, both girls run away but not before making a sound. Azami and Clarissa got outside the bathroom to find themselves in front of a confused Klara who was holding a box. The three girls remain silent before a naked Reiji, who overheard a cat meowing (which was Clarissa), opens the door to check on the three girls. Seeing Reiji's naked body completly exposed, Azami and Clarissa blush madly while using their hands to cover Klara's eyes who didn't understand the situation. Seeing himself exposed, Reiji screams in shock.

After that embarrassing scene, Azami and Clarissa return to the big scene with Azami saying that she must wash her eyeballs. Clarissa agrees as they hear something behind the stage. They follow it only to find Anastasia practicing. Anastasia asks her friends if they're stirring trouble but Clarissa replies saying that Azami is just helping her do research for their next stage production. Azami asks the older woman if she has seen Klara with the actress saying that she has not. Azami and Clarissa leave the room with Anastasia wondering what they're doing.

Azami and Clarissa proceed to spy on Klara as she's cleaning in front of the Theater. However, their not-so-subtle actions are witnessed by Komachi who calls them and asking if they're alright. Azami and Clarissa run back to Komachi and hide behind her counter while telling her to remain silent as they're on hot pursuit. Komachi says she will not rat them out and that she will help them out if the price is right. Klara enters the Theater having just finished cleaning. Klara leaves the room as Azami and Clarissa keep observing her.

Tired, Azami and Clarissa go to rest in the Parlor where they express their disappointment in not having anything regarding Klara's secret. Azami then sees Klara walking over to the staircase. Both girls follow Klara who went upstairs to the attic. By following footprints in the dust, they find Klara with the same box that she had earlier. However, it is revealed that the box only contained a stray kitten that Klara was taking care of in secret. Feeling that this was Klara's secret, Azami suggested that she and Clarissa leave the scene before being caught.

Suddenly, all three girls are surprised by the sudden appearance of Valery Kaminski. Klara tries to shield the kitten but Kaminski says that he will not harm an innocent creature. He then comments on the remarkable view and goes on to tell Klara about ''Mother Earth'' and her huge potential all around them which makes Azami and Clarissa suspicious. Kaminski then leaves the scene saying that he's late for another appointment. After his departure, Azami and Clarissa silently leave the scene without being spotted by Klara. Clarissa says that's she at a loss for words over Kaminski's appearance with Azami agreeing.

Later at night, Azami and Clarissa are sitting on the stairs in front of the Theater. Clarissa asks Azami about what they should do with the younger girl suggesting they continue with search. Then, the two girls hide as Klara exits the Theater to walk somewhere. Confused about why their friend will leave the Theater at a late hour, the girls watch their friend enter an alley near 6th Avenue before she screams. Both girls run only to see Klara being ambushed by a giant demon. Azami uses her ninjutsu to attack the beast while Clarissa watches over Klara. However, fighting the demon in an enclosed alley proved to be a challenge as Azami and Clarissa struggle to protect Klara. Suddenly, Reiji appears with an invention of his, the Type-26 Special Spiricle Striker, to fight back against the beast. However, to his surprise, the demon easily destroys the robot with a swipe of its claws. Unimpressed, Clarissa says that they should have made a run for it.

Clarissa proceeds to enter the fight and used her Libromancy skills to attack but was surprised that her magic didn't even scratch the demon. Clarissa thinks this is no point but Klara says she could. The platinum-haired girl runs over to Clarissa and puts some of her power into Clarissa's grimoire. As the attack is charging, Azami keeps attacking with her kunai. The young ninja jumps back as Clarissa unleashes an attack that was much stronger then expected as it completly anhilates the demon much to Azami and Clarissa's surprise. Klara is glad to see that her friends were able to win.

However, the girls' time was suddenly cut short by Black Cape, who appears out of nowhere to catch Klara. As the mysterious individual jumps back on a nearby rooftop, Azami and Clarissa run in pursuit while unleashing their kunai and magic abilities but to no avail. Black Cape hangs to a balloon to escape with Klara still in his arms. Azami jumps to catch him but misses him by a hand. Black Cape is then stopped when his balloon is cut by White Cape who arrives to save Klara. Klara falls from the sky and loses consciousness before being caught by Azami. Clarissa runs up to catch both Klara and Azami. The young noblewoman and Azami then watch as Black Cape and White Cape confront each other. However, Black Cape simply retreats with White Cape leaving soon after.

Sakura and Hatsuho arrive to help their friends but say that aside from watching most events happen from afar, they probably missed on a lot. Clarissa comments on Black Cape trying to capture Klara again only to be foiled again by White Cape. Klara wakes up in relief that she was saved by her friends once again. Azami then asks Klara why she left the Theater as such a late hour. The platinum-haired girl tells her friends to follow her. The girls follow Klara to the top of a hill in a near park where Klara says that the beautiful view reminds her of her homeland. She said that she recently read a poem about Russia which made her reminiscend about her homeland. She then thanks the girls for being there for her as Reiji is watching from behind a tree.

After returning at the Theater with the others, Azami and Clarissa go to hang out in the Parlor. While she's happy that Klara is safe and sound, Clarissa says it's disappointing that they couldn't find what Klara could be hiding. Azami says that they already discovered their friend's secret as it was exposed in the battle against the demon : Klara has the ability to amplify somebody else's power. Clarissa says that she did feel stronger while lauching her second attack and Azami concludes Klara's power was probably the reason why the Moscow Combat Revue is so frantic about getting her back. Clarissa speaks saying that Klara is now part of the Flower Division and that they will not let her go anywhere as she's family. Hearing her friend's words made Azami smile.

Episode 6 : Strange and Bizarre! The True Identity of Black Cape!

One morning, Azami is going to the Dining Room with the other girls for breakfast and encounter Sakura's swordmaster Hakushuu who was awaiting them. Realizing Klara and Hakushuu never met directly, Sakura introduces her friend but is surprised when Hakushuu already knows Klara's identity. When Sakura asks her master how she already knows about Klara, Hakushuu says she's heard rumors about the new member of the Flower Division being a young girl from Russia and that Tokyo is all over her. Hakushuu and Klara shake hands with the young girl being pleased to meet her. Hakushuu tells Sakura and Klara to come to the orphanage she works at to help her clean a storage room. The three women leave the Theater while the others remain behind.

Later, Azami, Hatsuho, Clarissa and Anastasia receive an anonymous tip from Hakushuu who warns them that Black Cape has returned to try another attempt at capturing Klara. The girls get to the orphanage while bringing Sakura's Mugen for them. The Flower Division, now completed, joins Hakushuu in a fight against Black Cape.

After launching attack after attack on the mysterious individual, Black Cape's clothes get burned down revealing its true nature as a robot-like entity. It then attacks with increased agility and speed by jumping on Clarissa's Mugen. Hakushuu jumps and attacks Black Cape but her attack is stopped when the robot moves his arms backwards. Despite its speed, Black Cape gets damaged by its enemies which causes it to levitate nearby rocks and fuse with them.

Black Cape reappears in its true form : a rock monster with purple crystals all over its body which shocks the Flower Division. With its newly found strength, Black Cape fights against Hakushuu who transforms into White Cape. The masked woman is able to hold back her own against it much to the surprise of the Flower Division. After a small scuffle, White Cape instructs Sakura and the Flower Division to attack the demon and aim for the demon's core which is the blue crystal located in its chest. Despite its best efforts, Black Cape is destroyed when Sakura uses her special attack Cherry Blossom Blizzard to destroy the demon's core. The core's destruction causes Black Cape's body to be engulfed in a red explosion, destroying the demon once and for all. However, the explosion, which is witnessed by Klara, triggers the young girl's memory to return in the form of a vision where Klara watches the Moscow Combat Revue fall in front of her. Horrified by the memory, Klara screams which alerts Sakura. Sakura exits her Mugen and hugs a teary Klara to comfort her as Azami, Naoya and the Flower Division look at them with a worried look.

Later at the Theater, Azami and the others learn from Hakushuu that she was using Klara as bait to lure out Black Cape in the open as she knew they will come after Klara. Sakura reprimands her master for putting her friend in danger but Hakushuu says that Klara's safety was her top priority and that she brought Sakura to protect her as she knew her student was able to do so. The other girls then talk about Black Cape's identity as a robot with Anastasia suggesting that someone must have builded the robot to capture Klara. As they wonder about who their unknown enemy is, Sakura is disappointed that they are at the same place as they were before and that the ''nightmare'' is not over yet. However, she also says that she and her friends will keep protecting Klara as she's part of their family. Afterwards, Azami and her friends watch Klara and Hakushuu talk before Hakushuu leaves the Theater.

Episode 7 : Stealth Mission! Tail the Date!

Azami and the Flower Division greet Seijuro who has recently came back from his mission in Europe. When Sakura tells her Captain that it's great to see him, Klara ran to hug him much to the surprise of Seijuro and the girls. Everyone is perplexed when they see Klara in tears.

Wanting to win Seijuro's attention, Sakura decides to cook a meal for her Captain. While the young swordswoman is tasting her cooking, Hatsuho arrives and asks her friend when did she started to cook. Surrounded by her friends, Sakura says that she's making something that will make Klara cheer up while also making something that will give Seijuro the ''taste of home''. After waking up from a romantic vision, Sakura sees that her comrades including Klara have all decided to cook for Seijuro much to her dismay. While cooking, Azami says that cooking is instrumental for a ninja.

After the girls bring their own dish for Seijuro (Sakura has miso soup, Hatsuho has onigiri, Anastasia has moussaka, Clarissa has steamed mussels and Klara has beef), Azami brings her own dish : the ''Ninja Surprise Pot''. Everyone looks at the ninja's pot and is concerned that it looks unedible. Seijuro asks if this is the meal where nobody knows what they're eating to which Azami says it's a ''forever secret'' much to Seijuro's concern. The girls then ask Seijuro what he's going to eat first. However, Seijuro suggests that they all eat together because there is so much food. Everyone agrees and sit down to enjoy their meals.

The next day, Azami, Hatsuho, Clarissa and Anastasia are summoned to the Control Room where Reiji reveals a video of Seijuro, Sakura and Klara leaving for a date in the city. Azami is furious that Sakura ''betrayed'' the group and that Village Rule 49 says ''all traitors must suffer''. Reiji summons Itsuki Saijou and Hiromi Hongou of the Moon Division to assist the Flower Division in their ''mission'' while Komachi thinks the whole plan is absurd.

During the ''mission'', Azami, who hid her face behind a ninja mask, spied on Seijuro, Sakura and Klara as they were having their date. At some point, the young ninja and her Flower Division comrades get themselves lost in a crowd with Hatsuho desperatly asking which way they should go.

Azami and the girls try to follow Seijuro's trio on a boat but were stopped by an employee as the boat was full. They then watch a disguised Kaminski and Leyla, who were also following the trio, run jump over the river to try to land on the boat only to fail and fall into the river.

After the boat left, the Flower Division comments that since Klara was with Seijuro and Sakura, they realize that they weren't really on a date with Anastasia saying that they were just taking Klara out. Azami and the girls drop their communication watches, much to Reiji's dismay, and leave the scene with Hatsuho asking the girls if they're ready for some fun.

Episode 8 : Nonstop Chaos! The Combat Revue Challenge!

Azami and the Imperial Combat Revue are challenged by the Moscow Combat Revue to a live broadcast competition that will determine Klara's future. The young ninja and her comrades support Sumire as she confronts Valery Kaminski for putting them in a position where they cannot back out without having their reputation be tarnished.

In the Imperial Combat Revue's loge, Klara apologizes for causing problems but Hatsuho pats the young girl's head and tells her that because ''they wanted a fight, they're giving them one''. After Azami and the other girls tell Klara that there is nothing to worry about, the young girl nods with a few tears on her face.

For the first round, which is a dance battle, Azami and the Flower Division watch Hatsuho perform with traditional Shinto dancing. Everyone looks in admiration as they feel confidant about a possible victory. Afterwards, Azami and her friends watch Leyla perform the Black Swan ballet which allows her to claim victory with 196 points against Hatsuho's 182 points. While the Flower Division is disappointed that they didn't win the first round, Sakura says that they're still in and that they will ''kick butt'' for Klara.

For the second round, Azami arrives onstage to face Kaminski in a bread-eating obstacle course. However, to everyone's surprise, Kaminski withdraws from the race as he says his Revue is of dignity and will not participate in something so uncouth and that he will grant a handicap to the Flower Division much to Sumire's irritation. After her victory, the young ninja returns to the loge with a bread in her mouth and calmly saying she won. Clarissa says that Azami only won by default but Anastasia claims that a win is still a win. Azami and her friends say with confidence that they will win the third round which consists of a mock battle.

In the third round, the winning team will be determined by who reaches Klara first atop of the tower. Azami joins the battle alongside Sakura and Hatsuho. When the battle begins, the three girls run to the tower. Sakura climbs the tower while Azami and Hatsuho face Leyla's teammates. At first, the Flower Division appears to be winning with Azami and Hatsuho easily dispatching Leyla's teammates which allows Sakura to climb the tower. However, as the swordswoman approaches the glass box, she is stopped by two Moscow Combat Revue members who are not part of the mock battle. Fortunately, Azami and Hatsuho arrive to rescue Sakura from her opponents.

After a blackout caused by Kaminski's power hits the arena, Leyla makes her fallen teammates rise up from the ground while also powering their weapons, which are actually real. While fighting one of Leyla's teammates, Hatsuho tells Azami to go help Sakura. The young ninja jumps and tries to reach the top of the tower but gets shot by Leyla's weapon which makes Azami fall. Hatsuho moves quickly and catches Azami before she hits the ground. With Azami unconscious and their Mugens incapacitated, her friend can only curse in response to their inability to move.

Episode 9 : Unbelievable! The Truth About Klara!

Following the events at the stadium, Azami returned to the Imperial Theater alongside Sumire, Kaoru and the Flower Division. An angry Hatsuho asks Sumire why the media think the Flower Division are working with the Moscow Combat Revue. Sumire says it's because they cannot allow the public to learn the truth about the events they're currently facing. Anastasia also says it's because they cannot reveal that there are demons working inside the WLOF. Knowing that Anastasia accuses Klara of being a demon, the shrine maiden answers back by saying that Klara is no demon but Azami, Anastasia and Clarissa and all suspect that Klara, whose sister Leyla is a demon, faked her amnesia as a way to infiltrate the group. Flabbergasted, Hatsuho was unable to respond when the group receives a video transmission from Seijuro.

Azami and the Flower Division listens to the young man as he informs his comrades about what he discovered in Russia during his investigation. He reveals that after travelling around Russia, he discovered that the Moscow Combat Revue truly perished when their airship fell down and that Valery Kaminski's Moscow Combat Revue are actually frauds. On top of that, he tells the Flower Division how he was in contact with a woman called Natalia Ruzhkova. Natalia, who was a scientist researching on Demons, met up with Seijuro one night and revealed how she used cells harvested from a certain greater demon to create human-demon hybrids known as Nadezhda. She almost gave up due to many failed experiments until two Nadezhda that she created were born : Leyla and Klara. She also told Seijuro on how Kaminski, joined the project as a ''volunteer'' to further Natalia's research. However, Kaminski, who mysteriously knew about the Nadezhda, secretly joined the project to use the Nadezhda's power to rule the world. After Natalia discovered Kaminski's plans, she escaped with Klara and contacted the WLOF to warn them. The WLOF sent the Moscow Combat Revue to pick up Klara near Petrograd but Kaminski, who knew about it, arrived and attacked the Moscow Combat Revue's airship, killing the entire Revue in the process.

After hearing Seijuro's story, Sumire asks the Flower Division what will they do now that they know the truth. Azami and the girls are uncertain of their next move until Sakura speaks out and says that the entire truth about Kaminski and the Nadezhda is too much to take. However, she says how much she loved being with Klara, how she doesn't want to see the girl suffer anymore and that she just want to tell her ''Welcome Home'' should she returns to the Theater. After hearing that, Azami and the other Flower Division members agree with their friend when Kaoru informs them that the Sevastopol has just appeared. Noticing that the Sevastopol was hiding underwater, the Flower Division wonders on why has Kaminski's forces reappeared now with Sumire theorizing that they might have found Klara. Sumire tells the girls to find Klara before Kaminski's forces and bring her home.

Azami and the Flower Division arrives to fight Leyla and her comrades. After Hatsuho reveals that they know that Leyla's group are not the real Moscow Combat Revue, Leyla sends her comrades to fight the Flower Division. Leyla keeps running away as her comrades are being taken down one by one by the Flower Division who are joined by White Cape. Now cornered, Leyla turns into her Nadezhda form and pins down Hatsuho's Mugen on the ground. Leyla turns over to Klara and tries to persuade her that no one will accept her as they will see her as a monster. White Cape, who reveals herself to be Hakushuu Murasame, the friend of Klara and Leyla's mother, Natalia, frees Klara from Leyla's Ekaterina.

Klara tells her older sister that she chooses to remain with Sakura and the Flower Division. As Klara reaches out to grab the hand of Sakura's Mugen, Kaminski uses the Sevastopol to launch an energy beam on the Flower Division causing a massive explosion that seriously injures Sakura and makes her lose consciousness. Azami, who is next to Klara, watches the young girl try to summon her wings to save Sakura but fails. Hakushuu gets Sakura out of her Mugen before it explodes. As Kaminski keeps firing on the Flower Division, Azami and her comrades try to defend themselves but were unable to move as a powerless Klara is taken by Leyla before flying away.

Episode 10 : The Destruction of Tokyo? The Rage of Tunguska!

After the last battle against Leyla, Azami and the Flower Division return to the Imperial Theater with their Mugen seriously damaged. In the Hangar, Anastasia asks Reiji how long it will take him to fix everything with the young man saying it could take him maybe 12 hours to get everything in a working condition. Hatsuho and Clarissa fear that another attack could happen in that time and ask Reiji about putting them to work as a way to resolve the situation faster but Reiji says that this one is on him and that the girls should just rest. Sakura, who has now healed her severe injuries, approaches the group with Azami and the others asking for their's friend's health. After Sakura tells her friends that she's alright, the black-haired woman asks Reiji how bad her Mugen is. Unfortunately for the young swordswoman, the brown-haired young man tells her that her Mugen is unsalvagable.

Azami, the Flower Division, Sumire, Kaoru, Hakushuu and Reiji assemble in the Control Room to watch Valery Kaminski's live broadcast where he uses a crystal-like weapon known as the Rage of Tunguska to destroy a mountain in a matter of seconds. After demonstrating his powers, Kaminski gives all of the world governments an ultimatum : disband and recognize him as their supreme ruler or be destroyed.

After that, Azami and everybody else are contacted by Seijuro who tells them that the director of the WLOF was Kaminski's mechanical puppet and that Kaminski probably took advantage of the Genan Incident from one year ago to plant his puppet. The young man says that while the WLOF is safe now, European nations are concerned about Kaminski's display of power earlier and are already considering surrendering. When Azami and the Flower Division refuses to back down and abandon Klara and Tokyo, Seijuro agrees with their decision and turns to Sakura who says that she use a Type-3 Kobu to replace her unsalvagable Mugen. Seijuro turns over to Hakushuu who is waiting in the shadows of the Control Room and asks her to watch over his girls until he manages to come back home. After everyone agrees, Seijuro leaves.

In the Hangar, Azami and the Flower Division get aboard their Spiricle Strikers before entering in bullet-like capsules that will be shot to the Sevastopol. Hakushuu, dressed in her White Cape garments, also boards a capsule. With everybody ready, Reiji launches the Flower Division and Hakushuu all the way to the Sevastopol.

After arriving inside the Sevastopol, Azami, Hakushuu and the Flower Division make their way only to be confronted by Kaminski's mechanical dolls which are called the ''Moscow Fakers'' by Hatsuho. Suddenly, all of the dolls turn into golem-like demons which remind the girls of Black Cape's true form with Azami confirming that Black Cape was another one of Kaminski's minions and that he was behind everything. While Clarissa fears that they cannot fight all of those demons due to them struggling with Black Cape before, Hakushuu tells the girls that it's not time to rest as she runs to attack the demons. Azami and the Flower Division immediately join the battle with Azami and Sakura fighting in the front row. With the girls easily gaining the upper hand, Hakushuu leaves the scene after telling Sakura to take care of the remaining demons themselves as she will go to take care of the Rage of Tunguska.

Sakura is contacted by Reiji who warns her that the Type-3 Kobu is reaching its limits. Sakura tries to fight more but as the Kobu's status worsens, Reiji tells her to get out as it will get too dangerous for her. As Azami, Reiji and the Flower Division try to persuade Sakura of leaving, the young swordswoman refuses as she cannot leave Klara. Her courageous declarations remind Sumire of her missing comrade Sakura Shinguji which prompts the Commander to ask Sakura if she's ready to go all the way to save Klara. Sumire then convinces Reiji to send the prototype Obu to the Sevastopol.

When the Obu arrives, Azami and the girls cover Sakura as she runs out of her Kobu and into the prototype Obu. The young swordswoman easily destroys every beast which impresses her comrades. With their path clear, Azami and the Flower Division move forward in search of Klara.

Episode 11 : A Fantastic, Tragic Love! Leyla's Heart!

After destroying the remaining golems aboard the Sevastopol, Azami and the Flower Division confront Kaminski and Leyla who were standing before Klara who was attached to the Rage of Tunguska. Kaminski tells the Flower Division that he considers mankind to be selfish and corrupted and that he hopes to create a new world free of that.

Azami and her comrades listen to Kaminski who reveals how after he gained powers from a mysterious rock that fell from the heavens, he traveled the world only to witness how corrupted and destructive mankind has become. As a result, he infiltrated Natalia Ruzhkova's project and attempted to get the Ruzhkova sisters' powers to destroy the current world and built a new one.

When Azami and the Flower Division reject Kaminski's comments as that of a delusional madman with a god complex, Anastasia fires at the machine holding Klara to free her but Kaminski blocks all of her bullets much to the girls' surprise. Kaminski tries to recruit the Flower Division to his side but is coldly rejected by the girls who are furious by his declarations. As a result, Kaminski threatens to destroy Tokyo but fails to do so as the Rage of Tunguska is destroyed by Hakushuu who arrives shortly after. Needing some time to fix the Rage of Tunguska, Kaminski orders Leyla to fight the Flower Division. Azami and the Flower Division are told by Hakushuu that she will put an end to Kaminski before he finishes the repairs while the girls handle the rest.

A fully transformed Leyla fights Azami and the Flower Division as Kaminski tries to repair the Rage of Tunguska. As the battle happens, Azami and the Flower Division listen as Leyla tells the girls she was always ashamed of her true nature as a Nadezhda until her first meeting with Kaminski in Russia. Even though she always knew of Kaminski's sinister intentions, she was happy that someone could call her beautiful. When Kaminski joined Natalia's project, Leyla was happy to be at his side and always tried to please Kaminski in every way she could until it was revealed her sister Klara had more potential than her. As a result, Kaminski always searched for Klara and pursued her all the way to Tokyo which fueled jealousy in Leyla's heart.

Leyla's declarations causes Azami and her friends to show sympathy for Leyla. After hearing that, Kaminski tries to brainwash Leyla to get rid of her feelings. Suddenly, Azami and everyone are surprised by Leyla overcoming her brainwashing before being sent against a wall by an angry Kaminski.

With his cannon repaired, Kaminski orders Klara to fire the Rage of Tunguska again as Azami, Hakushuu and the Flower Division moves in to stop him only to defend against blue energy shots. An injured Leyla stands up and flies towards Klara to rescue her but is mortally wounded by Kaminski much to everyone's shock. Mortally injured, Leyla breaks all of the cannon cables and saves Klara. An explosion sends Leyla and an unconscious Klara on the ground. Azami, Hakushuu and the Flower Division run to the sisters' side.

After Klara woke up, Azami and the others watch as Leyla tells Klara to leave and go back to her new family. A massive fire appears and seemingly kills Leyla. Azami, Hakushuu and the Flower Division can only look down in sadness and frustration that they have failed to save Leyla. Shocked at the sight of Leyla's supposed death and angered by Kaminski mocking her sister, Klara suffers an emotional breakdown and her powers begin to go out of control in front of her friends. Azami and everyone else could only stand still as a white light in the shape of angel wings engulfs the Sevastopol.

Episode 12 : The Grand Finale! Hope for Tomorrow!

Following Klara's awakening, Kaminski looks at Klara's enraged form and casually comments on her beauty which earns him her wrath. Sakura comes out of her Prototype Obu and tries to calm down Klara but an angry Kaminski shoots energy beams at her which are blocked by Anastasia. The young man is blocked by Azami, Hakushu and the Flower Division who all tell Sakura to calm down Klara. After a few seconds, the swordswoman succeeds in calming her friend. As Azami and the Flower Division corner the young man, Kaminski laughs while revealing the Sevastopol's true power : it can absorb the power of a demon.

Azami and the Flower Division watch as Kaminski grabs two damaged cables from the Rage of Tunguska to transform himself into a semi-crystallized form. Kaminski reveals he will use the energy he drained from Klara to fuse himself with the Sevastopol while ''thanking'' Leyla and Klara for helping him achieve this. Azami and the Flower Division fight against Kaminski but get overwhelmed by the latter's power. As Sakura is about to get killed by Kaminski, the Sevastopol is being attacked from outside by the other Combat Revues. With the ship being attacked, Sakura orders the Flower Division to fall back. Kaminski tries to prevent the Flower Division from escaping but is being stopped by Hakushu who tells the girls to leave. After Azami and the Flower Division retreat, Sumire orders the Flower Division to jump on the Imperial Combat Revue ship outside. After reuniting with Azami and the others, Hakushu says that there is no way Kaminski could have survived that even with his powers as the heavily damaged Sevastopol falls into the ocean.

Unfortunately for the Combat Revues, Kaminski survives the explosion and fires back from underwater. To the surprise of Azami and everyone else, Kaminski fuses with the Sevastopol to create a giant golem-like monster. Through the use of massive energy beams, Kaminski is able to overwhelm the Imperial Combat Revue and the other Revues. Under Seijuro's command, Azami, the Flower Division and the other Combat Revues then start to attack in unison against Kaminski but are unable to withstand his powerful attacks. Kaminski then starts making his way towards Tokyo with the Revues after him. Azami and her comrades try to stop him but Kaminski creates a large number of magic circles which summons flying demons.

Having arrived in Tokyo, Kaminski charges a huge energy beam to destroy the city. However, Klara joins the battle with her new Tenjin, a spiricle striker designed for her, which allows her to easily destroy every demon. Azami and the others watch as Kaminski prepares himself to destroy the city. Being tipped by Hakushu, the Revues keep attacking the core of Kaminski's body but are unable to properly inflict damage on it. When Kaminski fires his energy beam, Clarissa creates a massive magic wall to stop the attack which prompts the Flower Division to assist her. Hakushu uses her mysterious abilities (a power that Azami and Clarissa recognize) to power up Clarissa's wall which sends Kaminski's attack back at him. As Azami and her comrades are paralyzed, Sumire contacts Sakura and Klara and tells them that Klara's Tenjin has been created to fuse with Sakura's Prototype Obu and increase their powers.

With their fused spiricle strikers, Sakura and Klara are able to match Kaminski. At one point, the girls get close to attack but are caught by Kaminski who electrifies the girls in an attempt to kill them. To the girls' ignorance, Leyla, who was engulfed earlier by fire, manifests herself as a spirit to drain Kaminski's powers and immortality away. This allows Sakura and Klara to get closer and destroy Kaminski's barrier with a strong attack, exposing him. An angry Kaminski could not stop Sakura from stabbing him in the chest, killing him. After Kaminski's entire body dissolved into nothingness, Azami, the Flower Division and the other Revues go to welcome back Sakura and Klara.

Following Valery Kaminski's death, Azami and the Flower Division prepare themselves for their next show with Klara who has officially joined the group. When the show starts, Azami and her comrades sing and dance in front of Seijuro, Lancelot, Elise and everyone. When the show ended, everyone is applauding as Azami looks to a bright future alongside the Flower Division.
