Captain Narumi tells her that she has “ten minutes”, and she needs to “contain”, the area. She thinks five minutes is enough. Kikoru is a combination of the strength of her father and mobility of her mother. In a plane over Chofu Airport, Captain Mina Ashiro and Vice-Captain Soshiro Hoshina prepare for battle.

Vice-Captain Hoshina and Numbers Weapon 10

Hoshina wants to use strategy. This conflict puts them in danger as they face a number Kaiju. Kaiju Number 10 keep pulling Vice-Captain in different directions trying to test the strength of their enemy.

Without having their movement in sync their combat power drops to a worst level than when they were training. Hoshina decides to give Kaiju No. 10 control. Together their power level reaches 56 percent it’s highest. They attack head first. Or as Kaiju No. 10 states they “dominate”. Hoshina takes back over defeating the Kaiju with speed.
