The Borderlanders are back again on the foil on protest, and since Rubber Suit is dead (the body double), everyone in the immigrant community is grieving for his loss, staging terrorist attacks more frequently. The Marginal Service is also targeted as well, with one such potted plant gift of explosion ravaging their base. Brian and Zeno visiting the former's place of Borderlander Isabella Thorn to seek answers, but even she is being targeted as well.

Brian with his less experienced work on this new job, and his belief that both immigrants and Borderlanders brought Isabella to reveal the culprit behind this: Izuna Ren. But their enemy is more experienced, and both Brian and Zeno get caught up in the Pythagorean house trap that has their lives depend on it as it counts down to destruction. But rather than an explosion, it's a bluff using Rubber Suit's song...and it reveals an even bigger plot: the Goshiki Fudo, which coincides with the flower types for some type of ritual, with the centerfuge being at a stadium. The tengu ancestor protesting in his own way to protect the lands that was lost to human developments, it's a part of Rubber's plan that Brian goes with it anyways, and exposes a stele monolith mark of Borderlanders.

Some semblance of a plot, though this could go anyhow depending on the main antagonist Rubber Suit's ploy.

I do wonder if Rubbers actually wants some kind of reclamation of old Borderlander history, or if he's just using that to get underlings. Either way, I still can't see this series as anything but anime MIB.

Well some semblance of a story starting to come together in this show. It’s not good, but it’s a semblance of one.

This is getting interesting. Each ep has just ramped up how wild the situation is getting around MC. Interesting to see where this goes!

At least they are showing that even the Borderlanders doing crime aren't really bad.
