Blood Spilt, Tears Lost

Unexpected incidents occur one after another. Ishigami is mourned for his death, and the secrets of Linebarrel are revealed, leaving Kouichi in shock and others including Yui Ogawa in distress. Meanwhile, Eiji Kiriyama, who had aligned himself with the Katou Organization, continues to tighten his control over Japan until the country virtually falls into the hands of Kiriyama and the Katou Organization. JUDA is acknowledged as the anti-national armed group and is attacked by the Jinrai brigade of the Japan Self-Defense Forces. Kouichi tries to breach their defenses with Linebarrel, which is the only working Machina left.
