In "Nanatsu no Maken ga Shihai suru - Episode 5: Glare," the episode unfolds with a sense of tension and mystery.
The episode begins with a discussion about a recent incident at the coliseum, where an unexpected Garuda interfered in the battle. The setting is Kimberly, a place where danger is ever-present. The characters express their desire to protect each other and prepare for unforeseen challenges.
During breakfast, the group talks about their daily lives and the challenges they must face. They also discuss the recent changes in their classmates' behavior, particularly toward Katie. Due to a previous incident involving Katie and a troll, concern grows over possible retaliation from human rights activists.
It turns out that the school dismisses the Garuda incident as just another student brawl. This leaves the students feeling like they’ve entered a dangerous institution.
As the episode progresses, Oliver Horn, one of the main characters, demonstrates his exceptional skills in alchemy class. His abilities do not go unnoticed, and he is warned about a certain teacher, Mr. Grenville, who is rumored to exploit talented students.
A twist in the story occurs when Katie, another main character, visits a troll she has been trying to befriend. To her surprise, the troll speaks and warns her of an impending danger. This revelation leads the group to suspect that someone has been manipulating the troll’s consciousness.
The climax of the episode is Katie’s sudden abduction. Oliver and his friends quickly discover that she has been taken into the labyrinth. As they venture deeper, they encounter Vera Miligan, a fourth-year student at Kimberly Magic Academy. Known as "Snake-Eye Miligan," she reveals that she studies biology at a demi-human level and advocates for human rights. She possesses the eye of a basilisk—a dangerous and rare ability that has already cost her siblings their lives.
Miligan’s intentions become clear when she expresses her desire to examine Katie’s brain, believing it holds the key to deciphering the speech abilities of demi-humans. The episode ends with a tense confrontation between Oliver’s group and Miligan, setting the stage for the next episode, titled "Arise."
