Third Encounter / Return / Counterattack Meeting

The moment when the plane leaves the runway, the whole body is under a lot of G force, so the back is pressed against the chair. A feeling similar to that had been ongoing all the time.

Cutting through the wind with the whole body while advancing through the sky. There's no walls, there's no ceiling. Being free, just like a bird, is what Kisaragi Hayato has been doing.

<external>It is one of the new weapons of Little Garden against the forthcoming Third Attack.</external>

<external>This was supposed to be the final practice for Hayato. It is what is called a sham battle.</external>

<external>The place is the opposite deck part of Little Garden. It is over the coastal sand beach behind the school building that belongs to the martial arts department.</external>
