Devil Survivor 2 - ep04



It's seems that things aren't going to get better for Hibiki anytime soon, it seems that Yamato doesn't give them any time to morn Keita and immediately sends them out on another mission. While to a degree it is understandable when one of the Septentrion attacks now that the barrier is down. Although what is particularly strange about Yamato's battle strategy is that he intends to play a purely defensive battle. That it is through this battle that it raises question on the fact of is Hibiki doing the right thing by fighting for JP's it seems that commander Yamato is will to sacrifice everyone if the means that he can live. This is reflected in his defensive battle by sending the weakest to the front and the strongest to the back. It doesn't take long for Hibiki to become disgusted by this plan. This leads him to abandoned his position as the last defender to go to the front lines.

Hibiki does this in the hopes of trying to save as many people as possible, although he was there at the second defense line. It turns out that this enemy has an immunity to lighting so Byakko isn't as useful as he has been. That because of this weakness he was unable to save the second line from annihilation, that in the end he only survived because of Byakko. This lead him into meeting Alcor but when the person that associate himself with the enemy says he is Yamato's friend, this cast even more doubt on Yamato's character. This doubt is expanded further when he has Nitta replace Hibiki as the final defender with the slights hesitation.

It is becoming clear that JP's is beyond being weak, it begins the raise the question of how they survived this long with being as weak as they are. That in the end they survival is dependent upon the people that were just thrown into their situation days ago. Then as it appears that Nitta is having an effect with her new devil it is not enough to do any real damage. Then Hibiki shows up to save the day when everything is almost lost. Then in the aftermath Hibiki meets an ex-JP's team member who is going to tell him about Yamato and why he shouldn't be following him if he agrees to come with him. Things end with JP's in chaos with the disappearance of Hibiki.
