Episode Title:
The Red Ranger and the Mask of Pain
Episode Description:
Azir revels in his new powers and declares his dream will finally come true. As Yihdra, Teltina, and Lowji tend to Raniya, Tōgo fights Azir. A flashback shows Azir's citizens were angry that he showed favoritism to elves while his father Belgan encouraged him to marry Raniya to unite their races. The citizens rioted and killed Belgan, making him conclude he needs power to subjugate everyone so that they can be united under his rule. A mysterious man named Vidan hypnotized him into thinking he was his butler and gave him a seed. As the fight continues, Azir summons his sand monster, but Lowji takes it on. Azir freezes time again, but Lowji's anti-magic sword lets him resist it, then Yihdra deduces that Azir is really controlling the sand on everyone to freeze them. Tōgo knocks Azir down and lectures him to work together to unite the people instead of being a tyrant. Azir's seed consumes him and he hurls several stone blocks at the party, but Tōgo destroys them with the Victory Kizuna Buster. Azir screams for help as the seed turns him into a sandstorm headed for Sun Forest. Tōgo summons the Maximum Kizuna Kaiser, and with the whole party it is at 100% power, to intercept. After the credits, the origin stories of the Kizuna Five are told.
