Soul Eater: Maka's group meets Stein and Marie inside the field, and as their bodies are almost at their limit, the duo has no option but to leave the task of retrieving "Brew" to them. Meanwhile, outside the field, the skirmishes between Shibusen and Arachnophobia end when Kim gives the signal to retreat as instructed. She reaches the meeting point, only to find that none of her companions returned. While Ox and Kilik defeat all of Arachnophobia's forces near the field and enter into it to lend a hand to their friends, Maka and the others meet Mosquito, who claims to have "Brew" in his possession. After he reverts his body to a stronger form from 100 years ago, the team is easily overpowered by him, until Soul convinces his companions to leave the task of linking their Soul Resonances to him.
