30. Kaien Panzermast I

Kaien Panzermast I (カイエンパンザマスト Kaien Panzamasuto I) is the thirtieth chapter of the Kagerou Daze manga.

Summary

 * Kido is leaning against the rail on a building rooftop when she is joined by Konoha. She asks him if he has spoken to Hibiya, but he says that he has not. He is happy knowing that Hibiya is safe, but becomes sullen when he remembers Hibiya's cold demeanor towards him. It confuses him why the boy will not tell him what had happened, as well as noting that he looked confused. Kido explains that if the children came into contact with the Kagerou Daze, that would be the reason for Hibiya's confusion. She proceeds to explain how the Kagerou Daze works, along with confessing that the Mekakushi Dan is filled with people who have experienced it. Explaining how every member died, a shocked Konoha questions how she can be sure that they entered the Daze. Her answer is the fact that Hibiya has red eyes. She also mentions that, if Hiyori is trapped in the Daze, there is no way for them to save her. Konoha sullenly looks down and remembers the first time he met the two children. With sudden confidence, Konoha says that he cannot just sit and wait around. This makes Kido smile, and she encourages him to do what he thinks is right. He jumps up on the railing, but before he jumps down, Kido adds that he and Hibiya can rely on them for help.


 * Hibiya is back at the playground that he and Hiyori visited earlier, trying to remember what happened. As his eyes flash with a red tint, he stumbles onto the ground. While he wonders why he feels nauseated when he tries to remember, Ayano interrupts him offering an answer. He questions her as to who and what she is, she tells him that she is a monster.
