Episode 8 of DanMachi Season 3 puts Bell and his allies' resolve to the test. At the heart of the episode are intense battles and the emotional journey of Wiene, which leads to a dramatic conclusion.
The episode begins with the aftermath of the expulsion of the Ikelos Familia from Orario, which redirects the public's anger toward Bell. Isolated and troubled, Bell worries more about the impact on his Familia and Hestia than himself. Hermes and Ouranos continue their support for the Xenos hiding in Daedalus Street. Meanwhile, the Loki Familia, led by Finn, begins a thorough search for the Xenos, with Ais being tasked to follow Bell.
When the Loki Familia encounters the Xenos, fierce battles ensue. Bete, Tione, and Tiona face off against Gros, Lyd, and other Xenos, showcasing their combat skills. The Xenos face a significant challenge, especially when Asterius, a powerful minotaur, joins the fray. Despite their efforts, Asterius overwhelms them with his strength and a magical axe.
The turning point comes when Ais Wallenstein enters the battlefield. Her powerful windstorm combo briefly gives her the upper hand against Asterius, but the tide turns when Asterius injures her. As Gareth and Finn prepare to intervene, Hermes' plan becomes clear as smoke bombs allow Asterius to escape.
Meanwhile, Bell chases a berserk Wiene through the city, desperately trying to protect her from attackers. His efforts inadvertently contribute to the city's destruction. Wiene is eventually cornered in an amphitheater, where she is overwhelmed by a coordinated magical attack and suffers a fatal blow.
In a heart-wrenching moment, Wiene begins to dissolve, expressing her gratitude and happiness to Bell for saving her. Bell's despair is palpable as he loses Wiene, but Fels intervenes with the ancient spell Dia Orpheus. Miraculously, Fels succeeds in reviving Wiene and restoring her humanoid form.
The episode ends with Wiene reuniting with the other Xenos, while Bell faces the reality of the city's devastation. Eina confronts Bell about his role in the chaos, leading to a mixed reaction of blame and concern. The episode leaves Bell in a precarious position, as he must now reckon with potential consequences for his actions in protecting Wiene.
