Unit 2 may have been able to stop the Time Retrograde Army this one time. But who knows where the enemies will strike next on the next episode of the Japanese action-fantasy anime series "Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu?"
The previous episode saw the forces of good successfully stop the Time Retrograde Army from altering history. Failure at this particular mission might have led to Japan never opening its borders to the outside world.
Moreover, fans also got to see more interactions between Mutsunokami and Horikawa as they infiltrated a base of master-less samurai. These warriors were all aiming to expel foreigners from Japan, and had Mutsunokami and Horikawa not succeeded in slipping into their base, the entire mission might have undoubtedly failed.
