Opus 5: Clown Prescription.Before Yogi goes after Yotaka, he orders Gareki to escort Nai back to town, but Gareki chooses to stay since he feels like he owes a promise to his foster siblings. While running away, Nai crosses path with Tsubame, now with blood on her hands, as well as another Varuga named Meiga, who tried to apprehend her. Yogi attempts to trap Yotaka, now with black wings, in a cage of thorns, but Yotaka overpowers Yogi when the latter mentions Gareki's name. As Meiga captures Nai and Tsubame after finding them hiding in an open shed, Gareki kicks Meiga out of the blue and confronts Yotaka for his gothic looks. Meiga reveals that he is the one responsible for experimenting on both Yotaka and Tsubame, but Yotaka fully turned into a Varuga while Tsubame only had psychosomatic results. Tsubame is able to temporarily restore humanity in Yotaka through her bond as a twin. When Meiga forcefully turns Yotaka back into a monster, Yotaka asks Gareki to kill him as he prepares to choke Tsubame. However, Yotaka is suddenly impaled by Hirato's cane, and he dies happily.
