Episode Title:
Shadows
Episode Description:
Shinpei convinces himself it was a nightmare. However, upon arriving at the island he finds the day plays out exactly like before and notices the sound of a camera at Ushio's funeral. This time Shinpei is present when Mio stares vacantly at the house, and when Tetsu arrives he sees her murder Tetsu, causing him to realize she is Shadow Mio, and she replaces Tetsu's corpse with a Shadow Tetsu. The sound of the camera is actually the Shadow's disintegrating their victim's body into dust. Shinpei is found and stabbed by Mio. As he dies, Ushio's spirit again tells him to save Mio. He awakens again this time having already gotten off the ferry onto the island's dock. With a clearer memory this time he is able to stop Mio from falling off the dock due to the brakes on her bike being tampered with. The ferry woman is shown observing the events on the island and sending a report to someone unknown. Shinpei lodges a fake police report to keep Tetsu away that night and leaves his phone hidden to record Shadow Mio staring vacantly. He also notices one of his eyes has changed colour. He shows the recording to Mio as proof Shadow Sickness is real and her shadow intends to kill her. Mio realizes Ushio must have been murdered by Shadow Ushio.
