Summary
A young Akira attacks a two bullies harassing another kid's dog. The bullies run off and Akira declares himself as the superhero Akilger. In the present, Kencho scrolls through his phone and says that things are looking bleak. Akira mentions that his parents are in the Gunma region, which is a safe zone due to its isolation. Kencho does not expect to hear much from his hometown. Kencho dyes his hair blonde in order to better suit the comedian role, and Akira thinks about his dream again. He realizes that he has always wanted to be a superhero, and Kencho is incredulous. Akira pulls up his computer and shows that there is an item he needs in order to defend himself and others from zombies. Kencho and Akira head to the aquarium, with Kencho noting it is his first time being to one. They go through the exhibits, a zombie shark is swimming in one of them. Akira finds the shark suit, which is composed of titanium fiber and is impervious to bites. In the city centre, a bus full of passengers including Shizuka are trapped in a traffic jam and a zombie horde. The passengers all run out and go towards the aquarium. A young girl trips while running and she panics when a zombie comes, but Akira manages to save her and other passengers and also catches the attention of Shizuka. He attempts to talk to her but zombies start biting his suit and he makes the moment awkward. After he manages to throw the zombies into the water, he tries to talk with Shizuka again. She starts talking about Akira as having low self-esteem when a sudden bang shakes the aquarium. The zombie shark broke out from its enclosure and is able to walk due to legs protruding from its body.
