Alma recovered his memories after the fight with Amaryllis which causes him to have an mental health crisis so he abandons Hikaru. And by the way, Alma has magically acquired the ability to operate on his own now by getting his memories back.
We get a little backstory that shows Alma and Fist with the Kagami brothers. They try to wake up Ordela only for things to go horribly wrong as it starts attacking everyone. Real Master Hand from Smash Bros vibes.
In the process of shutting down Ordela's rampage, Yakumo dies. Alma gets PTSD and goes dormant.
Back in the present, Alma gets noogies from Jun. It's really important for the plot. Trust.
Hikaru gets a pep-talk from Aki and decides he's going to help Alma. Episode ends with the big bad trying to open Ordela again.
