Kikuchiyo has reached back to Nijo Castle, but has reservations to go back to Nio and render his aid instead.

Nio not letting go of Naozumi, only to find the Shogun coming back at him, plus the Miburo's arrival with Hijikata tackling Naozumi straight and not giving him any space, for his hand to tremble with fear and excitement. Fighting against the youngest of 10 kids, and leaning onto the compassionate side with a mean face, Hijikata's more trouble than Naozumi could ever face.

With Nio and Kikuchiyo back at Nijo Castle, though not without their injuries with the former sustaining a lot of damage, the battle scene brought to the other Miburo members with a manly brawl between the samurai and the farmer's boy, interrupted by Ayame of the Blood Risshidan being one of Yamata no Orochi's Eight Heads, their truce stands as of now.

The Miburo vs. the Blood Risshidan will be more of an occurrence going forward.

I love Taro and his overreaction but I could see that he might annoy someone.

Hijikata to the rescue!! Arriving just in time as Nio was very close to passing out from all the damage he was taking from Noizumi. The shogun returning was a nice moment since he didn't abandon Nio to his fate. Even if he couldn't actually fight it was a noble gesture. Hijikata arriving to save the boys from this brute at the perfect time. It was interesting seeing their two ideals clash. Someone who holds the samurai code very highly and someone who just doesn't care. Hijikata doesn't think much of that so called code, just living his life and repaying the love he felt as a child. Creating a safe country where all children can receive that type of love. We already heard before what Noizumi wants, so they're diametrically opposed in their views. Which made the sword clashes that much more intense. Hijikata main sword getting bent was definitely a setback but luckily things didn't go badly. As Nio and the shogun could send other Miburo to help. Leaving their fight unfinished for later. With each side now knowing of the other it'll be exciting seeing when they fight next!

Nice to see that the Shogun is now safe. The Miburo vs Blood Risshidan looks like it be an epic battle.

I was really hoping to see Hijikata go head-to-head with the big guy, but I guess they’re holding off on the rest of that fight for later. Now, I’m left wondering what exactly the Eight Heads, or whatever they’re called, are after in all of this.

All the hype about this anime has evaporated. All those interviews on the home page and all, this one is very lame compared to other anime that feature shinsengumi.
I think it's good time to quit on this

Hijikata would beat Naozumi anytime. I have to admit it, he is very strong and trained, but too full of himself.

Kikuchiyo has escaped safely with Nio at Nijo Castle. Can’t wait to see what will happen next!
