Episode 108
The continuation of the doctors' experiments on poor Manji.
. 
. 
Mozen is getting cocky. They put Manji under and started operating on him. Mozen is going to skip the "learn how to reproduce the condition" stage and jump right to the "find out how to stop and kill it" stage, and he was able to make cuts that don't heal. Since his tissue is anasthized, this prooves that the worms act with the body's nervous system, which gives more clues to their function...
. 
Or maybe not. "Doctor! The wound is closing!" Manji's still out and not feeling pain, but the worms are still moving and healing him.
. 
. 
Mozen, freaking out, stabs his hand into it! "I can't let it close!" Yep, he's totally lost it- His theory was totally shot down in front of his eyes.
The wound actually closes around his hand to the point that it begins to seal it inside manji's body! It requires Brand and Toraemon to pull the doctor's hand out of Manji.
. 
Mozen has nowhere to go, no more theories, etc. His time is cut off, and Habaki declares that it's Brand's turn at bat.
That night, Manji keels over with stomach pains.
"Woah. This is... this will help!"
What could it be?
Meanwhile, outside Brand is practicing cutting with a sword. Only samurai are allowed to hold swords, so he's never really touched one before. Looks like he's going for... er... more dramatic surgery!
