Ep 6. Tragic Irony

As the sixth episode of Black Bullet's first season, "Tragic Irony" introduces viewers to an intense plot that follows the familiar theme of personal loss and how it affects the lives of the characters. The episode begins with Enju, who is still reeling from the loss of her father, Gado, in the previous episode.

Meanwhile, Rentaro discovers that Kisara has paid off all of his debts, essentially freeing him from the contract with her father's company. He also learns that Kagetane has arrived in town, and Rentaro must once again confront the masked villain.

Rentaro, however, is preoccupied with Enju's sadness, so he decides to take her out to the city to cheer her up. As they explore the streets, they stumble onto a new Gastrea that is able to produce an optical camouflage, rendering it invisible to the naked eye. This introduction leads to a heated chase as Rentaro and Enju try to take down the Gastrea without the aid of the other civil officers.

As they fight through the city, Rentaro discovers that the Gastrea has been targeting all of the girls in the area. He and Enju manage to save several of the girls who are hiding in a nearby alley, including a young girl named Nana. Rentaro takes Nana and all of the other girls to safety, but they soon discover that Kisara's office has been taken over by another Gastrea.

Rentaro and Enju rush to the scene and are met by none other than Kagetane. In a heated battle, Rentaro manages to fend off Kagetane, but is left behind when Enju continues on to fight the Gastrea.

As Enju tries to take down the monster, she is gravely injured. Rentaro rushes to her side, but she tells him to go and fight the Gastrea. In a moment of desperation, Rentaro injects himself with Varanium, the same metal used in the civil officers' bullets, and gains superhuman strength.

With his newfound power, Rentaro takes down the Gastrea with ease, but the victory comes with a price. He is left heavily injured, and the series closes with him being rushed to the hospital in a critical condition.

Overall, "Tragic Irony" showcases the intense battles and emotional turmoil that these characters must endure in order to save humanity. The episode's theme of personal loss is highlighted through Enju's arc, as she struggles to come to terms with her father's death, and Rentaro's reliance on his own strength and perseverance to overcome the toughest obstacles in his fight against the Gastrea.

Viewers will be left on the edge of their seats as they eagerly anticipate the next episode, waiting to see how Rentaro's injuries will affect his future battles against the Gastrea.
