S01E09: Father's Successor
Adilisia raids Tholoide's lab, but is defeated by Tholoide and Lapis. Back in Japan, Kagezaki brings an item once owned by Tsukasa Iba, Itsuki's father, that the Association was holding to Itsuki, but reveals that Tholoide is disputing Itsuki's control of Astral. Itsuki and Honami go to a blimp to converse with Lapis, whom Tholoide speaks through. Tholoide concedes the ownership of Astral to Itsuki, but the two agree to battle to determine ownership of the item. After Tholoide claims that Adilisia is dead, Honami attacks Lapis, and Itsuki unveils his Glamsight. Lapis manages to escape, but Tholoide acknowledges Itsuki's power. Later that evening, the Astral mansion is attacked by Lapis, with Nekoyashiki barely managing to create a barrier against the initial assault. Honami flies from the mansion to meet Tholoide, who reveals he is an automaton. He then knocks Honami to the ground with a punch.
