Tozawa and Masane investigate a strange string of murders. Hopefully, the crimes are unrelated to the lonely man recently befriended by Rihoko.

A new model of X-Con is killing in ways that none have before, and with Masane along for the ride, Tozawa becomes a willing participant in the hunt for the monsters.

After Shiori’s sanity crumbles, she attacks the ship carrying Masane. When the battle ends, the true destiny of those who bear the blade comes into harsh focus.

The Doji Group rescues Masane from the ravaging hands of her clone contemporaries. As she is whisked away, a savage assailant gives chase.

Masane can finally provide for Rihoko after pressing the Doji Group for a new salary. The peace of mind might not last now that a reporter named Tozawa is following a new lead - the Witchblade.

Masane’s role as the Doji Group’s weapon comes with a new home, but security and comfort fade when she learns another powerful entity - the NSWF - seeks possession of the Witchblade.

The Doji Group wants Masane to deal with the rogue X-Cons stalking the streets of Tokyo. In exchange for her work, Takayama guarantees Masane a new life with her daughter.

The final battle between the Witchblade and the Cloneblades erupts! Consumed with madness, Maria leads her Sisters into a clash with Masane. High atop Tokyo Tower, all will face their destiny.

Masane and her allies prepare for battle. As three twisted Cloneblades move to take the Witchblade by force, thousands of I-Weapons approach to violently complicate matters.

A tender moment between Masane and Rihoko is interrupted by attacking X-Cons. Meanwhile, Maria’s chosen the next Sister to take on the Witchblade, and there’s even more trouble approaching from offshore.

Struggling under the emotional and physical strain of the Witchblade, Masane looks for ways to remove the artifact. But nothing short of death will remove the curse.

Takayama offers reassurance that he will look out for Rihoko if Masane falls in battle. It’s a good thing - Maria has never been more focused on claiming the Witchblade for herself.
