Kuroda heads to the Ibaragi ranch upon hearing of a meteorite crash that occurred over six months ago, but when the mental damper surrounding D.D.'s ship turns him back, he continues to look for further clues at an electromagnetic research center. Tsubasa and Hikaru are briefed by D.D. and Orudina on the latest Maguar situation, as the Mother Maguar may potentially wipe out all life on Earth within three months if it is not destroyed. During recess, Tsubasa stops a fight between Kenta and Tokio. The twins face a newer, more powerful Maguar that sprays corrosive acid. They help destroy the Maguar, but Hikaru is weakened by its attacks. The next day, while the twins go out for a walk, Hikaru suddenly blacks out temporarily and asks D.D. and Orudina to examine her. (en)
Three months after moving with her father from Tokyo to Hokkaido, Tsubasa Shiina struggles to adjust to life in the countryside. One night, she witnesses a spaceship crash in the forest near her home and races towards it, discovering the ship's unconscious pilot and an alien monster intent on killing him. During the turmoil, Tsubasa enters the ship and comes into contact with a liquid-like material that transforms her into a female, teenage humanoid warrior that defeats the monster. After the battle, the substance separates from Tsubasa and becomes a clone of her that calls herself Hikaru. (en)
D.D. and Orudina examine Hikaru and find no abnormalities, but because no Ribers has ever taken a permanent humanoid form, D.D. installs a pulse monitor in Hikaru's right hand for further observation. Hideo tells the twins that he will open a branch of the Ibaragi bakery in Tokyo, meaning that the Shiina family will have to leave Hokkaido in the spring. Tsubasa becomes very concerned with Hikaru, feeling she has been avoiding her lately. She then feels that Hikaru will leave Earth with D.D. and Orudina once their mission is accomplished. During class, Hikaru once again experiences a blackout and asks Tsubasa to do their research presentation for her. As Tsubasa builds up her confidence, Hikaru's pulse rate stabilizes. Hikaru admits to Tsubasa that they must part ways once all of the Maguars are eliminated. Meanwhile, Kuroda arrives at an abandoned coal mine after receiving a lead on his investigation. (en)
As the class prepares for its summer camp-out, D.D. briefs Orudina on Figure 17 and the Maguar situation. Tsubasa begins to bond closer to Sho while Tokio displays his affection for Hikaru. When the fourth Maguar emerges that night, Orudina attempts to dispatch it her own way, but her weapons prove to be ineffective. As the class relocates inside the school due to an incoming typhoon, Tsubasa and Hikaru fly to the battlefield, much to Orudina's dismay. Figure 17 rips the Maguar's wing, causing it to crash before Orudina and D.D. destroy it. The next morning, newspaper journalist Isamu Kuroda arrives in Hokkaido to investigate the damage in the forests caused by Maguar activity. (en)
During Hikaru's first week in school, Tsubasa slowly begins to develop her self-esteem as the school prepares for a port ball tournament. D.D. captures a newly hatched Maguar, but it escapes before he can analyze it. Just as the Maguar has D.D. cornered, the twins merge into Figure 17 to fight and defeat it. D.D. urges Tsubasa to continue working with Hikaru, as Figure 17 is the only one on the planet capable of containing the Maguar threat. The next day, Tsubasa and Hikaru's team wins the tournament. Meanwhile, Orudina arrives on Earth to assist D.D. on his mission. (en)
The next morning after the incident, D.D., the ship's pilot, explains to Tsubasa that he is a galactic police officer who was en route to return six stolen Maguar eggs to his planet when one of them hatched, causing his ship to crash on Earth and the five remaining eggs to spread across Hokkaido. He also tells Tsubasa that Hikaru is a Ribers - a techno-organic battle armor - that decided not to return to its dormant state after the battle. As D.D. and Hikaru are about to part ways with Tsubasa, the second Maguar egg hatches and incapacitates D.D., forcing Tsubasa and Hikaru to once again fuse together into Figure 17 and destroy the Maguar. When Hideo sees Hikaru, D.D. brainwashes him into thinking Tsubasa and Hikaru are twins. (en)
Figure 17 arrives at the battlefield and helps D.D. and Orudina destroy the Maguar, and Orudina realizes she needs Tsubasa and Hikaru's help in their mission. The simulations on testing new weaponry put a strain on Tsubasa both physically and mentally. Without telling Hikaru, she goes with Sho to the balloon festival, where the two manage to take a balloon ride. After the festival, Tsubasa reveals her feelings for Sho. That night, another Maguar emerges, but Figure 17 uses the new Carion Blade to slice off a piece of its shell, giving D.D. and Orudina an opening to destroy it. A couple of days later, Miss Hibino delivers the news to the class that Sho has passed away. (en)
At the ranch, the Ibaragi family has to split the duties of Kyoko, who has developed a fever while arguing with her daughter Sakura. Tsubasa and Hikaru offer to help the family by herding the cows for feeding and milking. Shinichi is unhappy that Sakura is slacking off and not doing her chores by herself. Sakura gets stressed out and quits, causing a heated argument with her parents. Tsubasa and Hikaru are summoned to the location of the fifth Maguar, but D.D. and Orudina manage to destroy it before they arrive on the scene. After witnessing one of the cows giving birth, Sakura apologizes to her parents and grandparents for her selfishness. (en)
At the start of the new semester, Sho and Asuka once again win the elections for class officials. Upon further data analysis, D.D. and Orudina deduce that the Maguar eggs were genetically modified to adapt to different environments, record combat data, and send it to other Maguars. For the upcoming talent show, the class decides on performing a play with Tsubasa and Hikaru playing the lead characters, but Tsubasa is uncomfortable with the role. The sixth Maguar emerges and proves to be resistant to Orudina's new weapons, including a direct hit from her mothership. D.D. and Figure 17 fire multiple shots at the Maguar's outer shell, forcing it top open up and allow Figure 17 to deliver one final shot. Hikaru, however, is wounded during the battle. (en)
With the sixth Maguar destroyed, D.D. tells Hikaru she must part ways with Tsubasa and return with him and Orudina to their home planet; in addition, D.D. must wipe the entire town of all memories of Hikaru. After realizing that Tsubasa and Hikaru are working on the school play, D.D. asks Orudina to delay their departure by two weeks. During rehearsals, Hikaru suddenly breaks down and cries in front of the class, as the play involves Tsubasa's character losing her memories. As the class finishes its rehearsals for the play, D.D. and Orudina discover that one of the Maguars spawned several more eggs within Hokkaido. The next day, the class successfully presents its play, with Hideo filming it in the front row. Meanwhile, Kuroda discovers Maguar remnants while surveying the damaged grasslands and gives the sample to biologist Dr. Taki. (en)
Tsubasa and Hikaru give Asuka and Noriko a tour of the ranch. That night, D.D. and Orudina battle and destroy another Maguar using new weaponry, but doubt it is the Mother Maguar. The girls go on a hiking trip to Lake Hono the next morning and meet up with Sho at the train station. Upon their arrival, the girls play frisbee while Sho, Kenta, and Shinji go fishing. Sho invites Tsubasa to go with him to a hot air balloon festival. Meanwhile, the Maguar sample Kuroda collected ignites and causes a fire at Dr. Taki's lab. D.D. and Orudina confront another Maguar, but when it counters all of their attacks, Tsubasa and Hikaru are once again summoned to assist them. (en)
Kuroda enters the coal mine and falls into the Maguar hive. Figure 17, D.D., and Orudina arrive at the mine fully armed and storm through the subterranean levels. On their way to the hive, they discover and rescue Kuroda. They make their way towards the Mother Maguar, but in an act of desperation, it launches itself and Figure 17 to space to reproduce on other planets. With no other option, D.D. blocks the Mother Maguar's trajectory with the mothership. Aboard the ship, Figure 17 separates and Tsubasa sees an unconscious Hikaru, who has used up all of her energy. Meanwhile, the Mother Maguar spreads its eggs outside the ship, preparing to launch them back to Earth. D.D. and Orudina instruct Tsubasa to retrieve the ship's anti-Carion bombs. Transforming back into Figure 17, she plants the bombs around the Mother Maguar's canopy and escapes before they detonate. Tsubasa returns to Earth, but Hikaru bids her farewell as her life force fades away. D.D. and Orudina wipe the town of all memories of Hikaru and the Maguar threat, but Tsubasa decides to keep her memories before she and Hideo leave for Tokyo. Hideo reveals that before Tsubasa was born, he and his wife were torn between naming her Tsubasa or Hikaru. (en)
Tsubasa is completely devastated by the loss of Sho, and she only thinks of him whenever she looks up to the sky. Sho's mother visits the ranch to return Tsubasa's handkerchief to Hideo, revealing to him that Sho and Tsubasa attended the balloon festival before his death. Hikaru attempts to comfort Tsubasa, but Tsubasa confronts her over copying her likeness and memories. Meanwhile, D.D. and Orudina destroy a new Maguar with projectile defenses that nearly kills D.D. The next day, Tsubasa, Hikaru, and Hideo visit Sho's grave to bring closure. (en)
