Summary
He hears the saniwa’s voice: “It’s a peaceful era, isn’t it?"
Peaceful is not the word that Nagasone has in mind at this moment. He's sortied at this spot before, and in that era there were no pedestrians, no strange shops with glass doors, no buildings shaped like blocks. The only people there were those branded as criminals and the executioners who stood at their flanks; there was no walking around, only waiting until one’s time was up. Peace in that case meant something entirely different 一 the kind of peace one knows when there are mere moments left to live. Itabashi was a place to die.
Yet the people of this era live on like it was nothing.
In which Nagasone and the saniwa travel to Kondou's grave for a minor mission, and he embraces his grief.

Summary
At least he would see the hydrangeas, he thought. Maybe they would be as charming as the saniwa claimed they were, and he had often heard Samidare speak of their beauty, but they were not a favorite of his. [...] There were more elegant flowers than these, at least in his opinion; hydrangeas were fickle things, ever changing colors, and growing only in the mess of summer rain.
They meant coldness, ruthlessness, pride. A terrible meaning for otherwise beautiful flowers.
Rainy season arrives, and the saniwa takes Kasen to see the hydrangeas bloom despite his protests.
[UPDATED to the correct version.]

Summary
With the History Retrograde Army defeated and the role of saniwa rendered obsolete, the humans who took on the title are erased of their memories and returned to their ordinary lives, and the touken danshi they summoned are allowed to retain their humanity if they choose.
One of them has a chance encounter with his old master in the middle of the night, and it stirs up old memories -- and new uncertainties.

Summary
Half-formed paper planes and crumpled sheets are strewn about on their desk and on the floor, many of them containing half-written messages hastily scribbled out. What can they say? How can they say it? Even now, the message in this particular plane doesn’t feel like it’s enough. Destiny could fill the entire space of the citadel with words, and it still would not feel like it’s enough.
The saniwa and Oodenta may be apart, but that doesn't stop them from sending him a message on a windy night.

Summary
The human body, Hasebe learns, is an instrument that needs fine-tuning. It is a work of both force and finesse, of both strength and subtlety, of both concentration and coordination. Being granted a body is only the beginning, and he needs to take the time to learn how to use it.
... Yet the saniwa makes it all look so easy, [he] thinks, as the music swirls around the two of them.
The saniwa asks Hasebe to dance. He's never danced before, but it's a welcome order from a master he cherishes.
