The reconnaissance squad is quickly cut down to just two, one of whom is Izana. The pilots and the people running the command center of Sidonia watch what's happening, unable to help. Kunato is concerned that the loss of Izana will endanger his plans. He suggests to Sasaki that they should employ the new version of the Tsugumori. Tanikaze is ordered to report for duty. He is given some instructions and then sent out with Tsumugi after Izana and the other surviving member of the reconnaissance squad.
Mozuku is riding shotgun in Tsumugi. Together they take off for Planet 9. Izana makes a discovery while she waits for help to arrive. She descends through the atmosphere of the planet. The gauna continue to follow her but after she loses her kabizashi she notices that they stop following her. She jettisons her fuel leaving her very little energy to get her around.
Tsumugi and Tanikaze arrive at Planet 9 and are quickly attacked by the hordes of gauna. They kill many of them but then the Crimson Hawksmoth emerges from the gauna horde. Tsumugi takes on the special gauna while Tanikaze goes looking for Izana.
This episode was mostly action and mostly took place away from Sidonia. It was confusing in places. I think I have kind of resigned myself to the fact that it isn't all going to make sense. It doesn't stand on its own very well. The set up is all in the previous episode and the episode ends with out much in the way of resolution.
