Lamia, hurt from the battle with Bodaiju, fell asleep without having time to respond to Seime's call. However, next to it was a plain wooden torii gate, the same one Keita had been sold to in Enoshima...
Meanwhile, Keita is waking up from his worst dream. The person she kissed on the beach has been swapped from Hinoki to Ushi. When she arrived at school exhausted, all her classmates in the classroom had been turned into dummies. Keita woke up startled and realized that she had fallen asleep during class.
Keita wasn't the only one suffering from nightmares. Akamatsu, Yanagi, Asami, and even Lamia and Bodaiju were trapped in the prison of dreams. Nebula and Turba continue their endless battle in a nightmare. Gradually, everyone begins to realize that they are in a dream. But even if she wants to wake up, she can't. Meanwhile, Kaede was the only one who was having a different dream than the others. A mysterious being who takes the form of a cactus and tries to attract Kaede. Its true identity is Maam, the fortune teller who sold the torii gate to Keita. Then Yakusugi appears and defeats Maam with the power of chakra.
The torii gate near Keita and his friends was broken, and they were all freed from their nightmare. The Bettermen are horrified by the power of the people who torment them and the people who have saved them.
