Notes

• Viewership: 9.5%
• Due to the events of this episode, the ending changes replacing the Megiddo/Chimera shot with a new outdoor shot of Zenobia with Chimera. (though sent to the Millennium Cave in the story, Megiddo can still be seen in the long shot of the Jashinka court at the start of the ending)
