----------------------------------------
Plane will arrive to Laginei in 45 mins. Lumati is worried about Laginei. Reporter is here. He asked about the feeling of arrival, Lumati said he wants to get hear the people. There might be danger, there mightn't. He suggested to speak from the large space.
It's them who caused civil war, they might change their thought and listen to him. Lumati asked Zhao what he wants to say to Li Ren.
Isabelle is here and wants to visit Carl but Li Ren is here. Carl told Li Ren to bring Kajika out of Laginei as soon as possible. Li Ren was thinking about that but airport is messy because of Lumati's return. Carl said when he's bringing his father back to US for a time, he can bring Kajika along with him. Kajika won't agree to it, Li Ren said. Carl mentioned about Fang business. Isabelle interrupted what Li Ren's going to announce. She thinks that as an underling of Burnsworth, Li Ren must be came to laugh at Carl's father. Carl shot her up.
Li Ren saw a guy (a soldier actually), went to opposite direction as Li Ren. Li Ren asked if soldiers came often to the hospital, the person said not much. Sicked soldiers should be in soldier hospitals. Li Ren thinks it's weird.
Carl is arguing with his sister. Isabelle is angry and threw the container for cigarette, which it hit the opening door. The person with flowers showed gun inside the flower and Carl got shot protecting her. Li Ren saved them. Li Ren's attack won't kill him, but he's already dead by having poison inside his body. Isabelle knows why he was sent. Kwinza knows Kajika's secret and sent an assassin to them. Isabelle blamed Carl for betraying father, so she told Kwinza. She thought she's doing a good deed. Li Ren is borrowing Carl's car so he can get back to where Kajika is.
Kajika is thinking about Li Ren and Eugene must be arriving to airport.
A man walks to their hideout. It's Kwinza!
Lumati's airplane has been arrived. Neuei and Eugene are in the airport. There are many people and media but no soldiers. They are hoping for Lumati to do something better than Somando.
The loyal people are still not letting Lumati in. Other political people, however, is suggesting to bring Lumati to the hotel than keeping him in the airport.
They, picking up Lumati, are shocked at how he sparkles. They can feel the change in him and lowered their bodies. They feel that he already has a feeling of a king. He's going to undo what happened two years ago and not intend to cause civil war. He's going to protect his brother and Laginei. He's also going to directly inform about it to the people. He began to order those people instructions. Even Zhao is shocked but worried at the same time.
Kajika heard a sound. She peaked outside to see what happened. She also felt the danger. Some people who left behind (in the hideout) fell and a person is standing there. Kwinza began to talk. He told her to come with him quickly. Kajika felt that she should go with him. Kwinza walks near her and she ran away.
Kajika locked her room. The phone line has been cut. Kwinza said he's sad to not trust him, Kajika said don't lie. Bad lies brings bad results. He then said about Kajika's religion. Kwinza undressed and showed a gun on his hand. Kwinza has shot the lock.
Li Ren is hurrying back and blaming himself for leaving her alone at this day.
When Kwinza opened the door, Kajika has already escaped from the window and used the rope to climb up.
Li Ren prayed for a God he never prayed before to protect Kajika. If there's sacrifice needed, then sacrifice him!
Kajika was managed to escape to another building by jumping, but there's no where to go and Kwinza caught her. Kajika jumped to another building with roof and is in danger. She got up and continue escaping, hoping Toranosuke will come back. Kwinza got her. She began to ask why on this happy day. Just because of that, he's doing it. Kajikam then, realized that Kwinza knows the truth. She explained that she has no intention to be the leader. She and Harry just wanted to watch over from faraway. Kwinza, now believed of truth and realized Maharty's "mistake", still shots her and Kajika is going to jump to another building. She reached the building, but is in danger because Kwinza also jumped and his legs are on the building, unlike Kajika who is holding the building.
Kwinza said he won't use the gun anymore because she also has loyal blood, loyal people = who are near God. He took out his dagger and began to attack her. She thinks of Li Ren. Li Ren saved her by shotting Kwinza down.
Li Ren asked if Kajika is ok, she said ok. Li Ren was worried about her to the extend that his body is shaking and Kajika can feel it because they are hugging. She told him that she thought it was her last and she wants to see someone one last time. The person that came to her mind is Li Ren. They kissed. Setting changed to the island.

5 more eps.
I ♥Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!!
OMG BEST EPISODE EVER!!!! It finally happened after all the waiting it finally came true.
I'm sure you guys know what I am talking about : )
Also Rumaty is a badass. Im kinda wondering how the rest of the episodes are going to play out since there are 5 more. Guessing another twist somewhere.
@skullking123
actually i thought that what you're talking about was a really bad scene... i'm sorry for saying this..but it was really unromantic..i was expecting something nicer after all this waiting...:((( i've seen better ones:(((
as for rumaty...hmmmm..i just have to wonder how mature as a king can a 16 years old boy be...
but this episode made me laugh..kajika was really athletic:)))) for an ojousama it's really impressive:))))

lol Kajika isn't necessairly the typical ojousama. so its not all surprising that she could jump buildings I guess. And about that scene....yea it could have been more "romantic" but I am just glad it happened.
LOVED THIS EPISODE! Probably the most intense one yet! I was so happy with the ending scene though! FINALLY, it happened!! :D I dont care that it wasn't that "romantic", for christ's sake she just about got killed so I think it was rather nice the way it was. I actually thought it was super cute. :3 Can't wait for the next episode!
Well, I was waiting for the kiss to happen since episode one...or at least close to the beginning. Quinza should have been shot in the head instead...now he's gonna come back and continue trying to (or will) kill people that are "in the way".
LOL. Only this show could pull this sort of crap with 5 episodes left. Yes, let's have a chase scene over rooftops. Quinza could have shot Kajika so many times, he really should have. She needs to at least be injured. :/
Upon seeing the bad-assery of this episode, and seeing how cool Quinza looked as an assassin, and FINALLY seeing the kiss between Li-Ren and Kajika, I had to bump the rating I gave for this up a peg.
Yes it could have been more romantic but realistically, I don't think there could have been a different way to do it. If it was like on an island and after everything was over at the very end of the series the cliche-ness of it would make me hate it.
OMG finally, I was waiting for the kiss to happen between Li-Ren and Kajika since the first episode (yes, I fell in love with Li-ren the moment I saw him). Anyways this seems to be going in the right direction, lets just hope they end up together. XD
It was an o.k kiss, I really did not care who she would choose in the end, because their all good guys in my opinion. Although my favorite by far is Lumati. Anyways it was hinted since the beginning that she would end up with Li Ren.
HAD to comment. This has to be the best episode of the mediocre series.
I admit, when Li Ren showed up and the dramatic music started playing, my heart was in my throat. And finally, the kiss. Oh god the kiss I've been waiting for since 34 episodes. Thought they'd just do it in the end. Nice. Very nice.

I totally thought the same thing! I assumed they would leave the kiss for the last episode, especially with the way the relationships have panned out so far. I am so happy they didn't though.
And I understand why people think it wasn't romantic enough, but I think it was plenty romantic. He was trembling and her eyes were watering and they both went for it. It was wonderful!
Finally, Kajika and Li Ren! <3 Good, because Carl was annoying me. Everytime he tries to go save Kajika he lets someone hold him back. :/ The chase scene was awesome, I almost had goosebumps because it felt so intense.
Nah, Carl didn't annoy me. It's refreshing to see a character who doesn't turn into Superman.
And this Tora-whatever guy must be the worst bodyguard ever.
Kajika annoys me. Come on, even a 17-year-old girl must have a little more brains than that! "I'm hiding in a rebel hide-out and heard a strange noise. Let's go outside and shout around asking what happened." Yeah, great idea...
*sigh* Just once I want an anime where all the guys fall for a girl because of her wits. But I guess that'd be unrealistic.
I thought the kiss was good.
I seem to have a different opinion about romance than you guys, so I'm curious: what would have been more romantic?
We jumping off buildings now! Don't worry Kajika won't die even if you kill her.
They should have ended the series here.
The kiss was fine.
Can't say that I like or love any of these characters, that's why I don't feel strongly about this romance but it's okay (otherwise I wouldn't have gotten this far).
Are all these people in power children, Rumaty chides them a bit and they all cower. No wonder Quinza was able to assume power as the only adult in the entire court.
