Blue Seed — Season 1, Episode 22: Sadness! Fate! Momiji Kushinada!

Episode synopsis

The prime minister grudgingly decides to sacrifice Momiji in order to save Japan from the growing Arigami infestation. Momiji, still grieving over the loss of Kusanagi, accepts her fate and goes with the government to be sacrificed. The TAC isn't quite ready to give up on her just yet. Takeuchi and Kome go to rescue Momiji. Momiji refuses to go at first, saying that this is her destiny. But Takeuchi slaps some sense into her (literally) and reminds her of what they are fighting for. The three TAC manage to escape thanks to some unexpected help from Sakura and her pink sea creatures. As they are leaving, Momiji's mitama begins to glow. She can sense Kusanagi!
