Plot[]

Yusuke was glad to have Tsukasa to join the fray and asked him if he had the clue of what was going on. Tsukasa replied that the game was set up by the 'real' Sougo Tokiwa and he came to defeat him. However, Ora and Swartz were displeased because of the additional killing incident outside the game rule. Swartz then incorrectly blames Misa for the killing because she was proposed to marry the old man, while Heure noticed that the axe above the television had disappeared.

Not long after, the masked man announced the third game to be a rock-paper-scissors and must leave the most losing player on each five rounds to have the game finished. For three rounds, the group ended up in a draw with Tsukasa warning them that one of them must lose or everybody else would be killed. Misa declared to go with rock to stop the game during the fourth round, but Ora didn't believe her and made the result a draw again, surprising even Ora that Misa was serious.

The fifth round ended the game with Misa losing, her last dying wish was for Sougo to win the game and she went outside to be killed by Another Ryuki. Sougo was depressed and the next break time meal was Okonomiyaki since Misa always said about her father opening up Okonomiyaki. Tsukasa praised the sacrifice of Misa while Swartz mocked her to be a weakling, but Tsukasa was clearly despised of the reality they were in and shut Swartz with the food with a cold tone just after a taste of the meal, telling Swartz to shut up and eat. Tsukasa also encouraged the group to eat soon after.

The fourth game soon announced to be hide and seek with Another Ryuki to be the demon for hunt while the rest were the prey. The group hid properly and Tsukasa hid alongside Yusuke. While the game was not over, Swartz got murdered by an assault on the bed when Swartz was going out for a moment as he hid under the bed. Yusuke, Tsukasa, and Sougo soon looked after Swartz because of his scream before he got hit on his head. Swartz was unconscious for awhile and his last words before his demise was 'I want to eat the poisoned dumpling' as vengeance to the one who illegally making him lost.
