A sudden crash-landing appears to give Kouichi the power he's always dreamed of possessing, but the mysterious and beautiful Emi has yet to reveal a devastating secret.

With his newfound powers, Kouichi seeks revenge against the ruthless bullies who once tormented him. Nothing can stop his mad quest for glory - not even the fact that he's dead.

Kouichi's changed since the accident, and not necessarily for the better. He's giving his closest friends the cold shoulder, and even Emi finds it difficult to stomach his new attitude.

Yajima confronts Kouichi about his violent behavior, leading to a bloody brawl between old friends. Their reconciliation is quickly halted when a mechanized assassin emerges from the darkness.

Kouichi awakens to find - much to his horror - that Yajima did not survive their altercation. Devastated, he rejects an offer to join JUDA only to reconsider after talking with Emi.

Kouichi's first day at JUDA headquarters is downright brutal. He's been launched into space, seen Emi naked, and he's about to be sawed in half!

Kato unexpectedly arrives at JUDA headquarters to recruit Kouichi for his sinister mission. Back in the real world, Emi attracts attention from the cool guy at school.

JUDA mounts a recon mission to gather information about the spheres KATO is strategically positioning around the globe. Reiji berates a Factor for coming to his rescue instead of following orders.

It's Christmas, and Kouichi should be spending time with the mother of a fallen friend. Instead, he's blasting into space on a mission to save Earth from hijacked satellite weaponry.

Things look dire for Earth until Kouichi musters a desperate attack on the deranged and violent Riku. But even if he saves the world, Kouichi may not survive his latest mission.

Kunio rewards his team with a tropical getaway, but after a bizarre graveyard rendezvous and a giant squid attack, team JUDA will need a vacation to recover from their vacation.
