Hinamizawa's darkest secrets begin to unfold as Keiichi talks with the local detective.

Following Keiichi's lead, everyone head to the child guidance centre to try and save Satoko.

To save Satoko, the village of Hinamizawa unite in protest at the child consultation centre.

Satoko tries again by using Miyo, who now also retains memories from previous loops.

After watching Rika express her continued resolve to escape her fate to Hanyu in the Sea of Fragments, Satoko awakens alongside Rika in a new world. In need of a more reliable murder weapon, Satoko manipulates Teppei into giving her the contact information for an arms dealer.

In a new loop, Rika tearfully confides in Satoko about her "nightmares." Satoko suggests that the nightmares may be messages from Oyashiro and encourages her to stay in the village. Later, the games club members participate in a baseball game which ends in victory when Satoko hits a home run. After a celebratory barbecue, Satoko visits Teppei in Okinomiya. She asks him to move in with her, explaining that the entire village has been bullying her.

After beating her uncle to death, Satoko showers to clean the blood off of herself and attends the festival with Rika and the others. During Rika's dance, Satoko lures Keiichi away and asks him to come to her house.

Eua overpowers Hanyu and forces her to watch Rika's death at the hands of Keiichi and Satoko in two separate fragments. While purchasing a present for Satoko's birthday in a new world, Rika begins to experience memories of being killed by Oishi.
