Nonstop Chaos! The Combat Revue Challenge! (波乱万丈！華撃団大戦, Haranbanjō! Kagekidan Taisen) is the 8th episode of New Sakura Wars the Animation.

Summary

Leyla recalls when she first met Kaminski, where it is revealed she is in fact an angel-like being. Later, the Imperial Combat Revue is forced to answer a challenge by the Moscow Combat Revue to determine Klara's fate, though Sumire notes that the Imperial Combat Revue has no choice since refusing would hurt their reputation. The first match is a dance competition. Hatsuho starts with a traditional Shinto dance, but Leyla answers with a ballet and secures her the win. The second match is an obstacle court, but Kaminski voluntarily forfeits so that he can give the Imperial Combat Revue a handicap. The third and last match is a mock battle between the two teams. However, the Moscow Combat Revue cheats and uses real weapons to incapacitate the Flower Division. Sakura attempts to protect Klara, and Leyla reveals her black angel wings before knocking Sakura off a tower. This triggers Klara to transform into her true form, growing white angel wings. Kaminski claims triumph as he believes Klara is a savior from God who will destroy the world and rebuild it. Ashamed of her true nature, Klara flies away despite Sakura's pleas.
