With Shiki and the professor's help, Rebecca overcomes Joker's games and convinces her to surrender peacefully. Before leaving, Professor Weisz gives Pino a flash drive containing her deleted memories about the Four Shining Stars' forgotten pasts. The Edens Zero then follows the waymark into uncharted space, where they are followed and attacked by God Acnoella and the Four Dark Stars. Meanwhile, Pino is devastated by what she learns about the Shining Stars, who appear to have lived as humans along with the Dark Stars 20,000 years ago on a dying, modern-day Earth. | |||||

| Killer uploads a self-destruct program onto the Edens Zero, which Hermit intends to resolve by overriding the ship's systems with the other Shining Stars' authorization. However, the crew is preoccupied by the Edens One's forces, with Mosco defeating Clown by changing into Cosmo, his overly dominant alter ego triggered by his forbidden button. Meanwhile, Shiki infiltrates the Edens One to confront Void, but is killed by Lightning Law, one of Void's Oración Seis Galáctica. Discovering she can still reverse time in Universe Zero by becoming naked, Rebecca averts Shiki's death and contacts Laguna, who enters Overdrive and defeats Law. Shiki and Rebecca pursue Void as he approaches Mother to kill her. When Shiki fails to defeat Void, Ziggy returns alive to battle Void himself. | |||||

| Witch, Valkyrie, Homura, and Weisz defeat the remaining Dark Stars and Acnoella, preventing the Edens Zero's self-destruction. Meanwhile, Ziggy sends Shiki to save Mother while he battles Void, whom Ziggy recognizes as his and Rebecca's son from the future. Shiki's group finally reaches Mother, who offers Shiki a choice between saving her, which would cause all those who died in previous universes to die in Universe Zero, or preventing these deaths while guaranteeing Mother's death. To aid his decision, Mother reveals herself to be transformed state of planet Earth, which the Shining Stars' and Dark Stars' human models – including Shiki's parents, the models for Witch and Wizard – sent into Overdrive to save the planet from destruction at the cost of their lives 20,000 years ago. It is further revealed that the Chronophage reverted Mother to her planetary form fifteen years ago, leading Ziggy to discover Shiki as Earth's last survivor before Mother's rebirth. | |||||
