Blood Eclipse Release (
Synopsis[]
As soon as Mudano announces the start of the game, Jin Kougasaki splits off from his teammates by jumping into the treetops above. As he makes his way through the forest, he considers how he should beat his teacher and clear the game in order to join a strong Oni Corporation squad and meet an unnamed "bastard", but his focus is interrupted when he hears someone approach from behind.
Shiki unsuccessfully launches at Jin with a stick and demands that he take back his earlier comment about Shiki's goals being pointless. Jin refuses and, lifting his mask to reveal a number of scars around his nose and mouth, tells Shiki that he doesn't mind getting rid of him there and then.
Removing his gloves and rolling up his sleeves, Jin reveals even more scars that have been sutured. Using his finger, he opens each wound to release blood, from this, produces several revolving circular saws. Shiki is surprised to see that Jin is able to easy control his blood; Jin mocks him for not being able to do the same.
Despite the difference in skill level, Shiki tells Jin that he'll face him head-on because refusing to fight would be the same as admitting that his father's death was pointless. Upon learning that Shiki's goal is to avenge his father, Jin becomes angry and announces that they will never understand each other.
Shiki makes an attempt to release his blood like before but to no avail. As his opponent prepares to attack, Shiki decides that he'll have to use the battle to learn how to control his blood from Jin and that doing this will be his first step to becoming stronger.
