Ever since he learned of how Lil' Slugger feeds on paranoia, Maniwa has engaged in the same crusade described in "The Holy Warrior," only for Maniwa, Lil' Slugger is his adversary. His world blurs between reality and delusion. After a failed attempt at defeating Lil' Slugger (who changed into an abnormal form), Maniwa turns to the old man for help. His dying words, and some insight from Misae, who he sees after hearing her over the radio, lead him on a strange journey to the origins of Maromi and Lil' Slugger. In the meantime, Maromi leads Tsukiko to Ikari's world. And then, just as Maromi fever reaches its peak, figures, images, and merchandise of Maromi suddenly disappear as some of the victims of Lil' Slugger fall back into their state of paranoia.
Stupéfait par la métamorphose du gamin à la batte, Maniwa s'aperçoit que tout le mystère de ces agressions est lié à un incident vécu par Tsukiko lorsquelle n'avait que 10 ans...
Seguendo i consigli del vecchio "maestro", Maniwa scopre che un crimine simile agli attacchi di Shonen Bat era già avvenuto molti anni prima, con vittima proprio Tsukiko. Andando a far visita al padre, Maniwa scopre la verità e desidera parlarne con la ragazza, ma la Moromi parlante prodotta dalla psiche di Tsukiko, desiderando proteggerla, la conduce al sicuro nello stesso mondo bi-dimensionale in cui si trova Ikari...
