I will make this summary a super short one. This episode is not just about Sousou but also includes Bachou.

In the first part, Bachou is seen learning ‘how to read a person thru a fighting stance’ from his father who unfortunately died from felling down a horse. ∑(゜△゜;)… Ok. Don’t ask me why he fell down the horse. I don’t want to type it out…. all i can say is dot dot dot.

Rumors eventually spread out as Sousou killed Bachou father. And in the screenys, you can see that Bachou attempted to kill Sousou but failed and was captured. *She was stopped by Rin Rin.

As a result, Kanu has to sacrifice her (*drool* (ok. thats my drool)) front and back to redeem Bachou if not Sousou will chop off her head as punishment for trying to kill her. But in the process of that, an assassin does her job. (Oh my even the assassin is a female)

Hence, as a reward for Kanu for saving her life, Sousou decides to let Bachou off. Shunran accompanied Kanu to the place where Bachou is kept prisoner and on the way, explained why/how Bachou’s father died. Having said that, Kanu requested for the truth be made known to Bachou. But the result was a duel between Shunran and Bachou as she do not believe what Kanu and Shunran said. But thru Shunran stance, she came to realize what she spoke was the truth and broke down crying with Kanu comforting her. (Well, I think anyone could break down crying if you get to know how his father die).

Towards the end, Bachou is seen leaving the party to go back to her village to inform the villagers the truth and this come to the preview of the next episode.

Next episode Toutaku will make an appearance
