Darker Than Black - Vol. 5 DVD
A new and deadly breed of covert agent walks the streets. Known as Contractors, these assassins and spies wield bizarre supernatural powers to carry out the dirty work of others. One among these operatives is more mysterious than the rest - The masked killer BK201, the Black Reaper.
The rogue finds himself mired in a clash between many factions, on a battleground where faith and love can bring out the worst in a soul. The fate of his kind hangs in the balance, and the final act of war is being prepared. The Black Reaper will have to face the fact that his most hated rival could be his only hope.
Episode 19 - Dreaming Shallow, Uninebriated... (Part 1)
The appearance of the Contractors changed everything. Even faith was shaken when the impossible sprung into existence. BK201 has a new mission: Infiltrate a religious cult devoted to worshipping Hell’s Gate and assassinate its prophet. The kill will be tough to pull off. The leader of the sect is as mysterious as the object of her congregation’s reverence, appearing only once a year - and it is suspected that she has supernatural abilities. Hei will have a contact inside the sect, a Contractor called Shihoko. She isn’t unfamiliar to the members of the Black Reaper’s cell. For one team member, she’s been a source of great pain.
Episode 20 - Dreaming Shallow, Uninebriated... (Part 2)
After the botched attempt on Alma’s life, Black Reaper’s team must regroup and try again - and they’ve added a new name to the kill list. Shihoko must go away for good. Should she survive, Huang will pay with his life. Those in the secret business of murder and intrigue know there’s no room for emotion, but ties from the past are strong. Huang and Shihoko share a complicated history, and neither can be sure how it will end. Alma knows her own final chapter is being written, and it begins with words of confession to Hei. She’s gone too far; she has strayed from the lofty ideals of her past - and she will have to atone for her sins.
Episode 21 - City Under Crackdown, Moist with Tears... (Part 1)
Kirihara is tireless in her pursuit of Evening Primrose, and her hard work seems to be paying off - but for every step forward, there are two steps back into chaos. The Contractor underground is waging war, and the violence is escalating. A valuable Gate researcher has been abducted. The American Embassy is under attack. As one of her closest allies abandons the good fight to join the enemy, Kirihara will have to reach into her reserve of determination to keep pushing for justice - but she may find it hard to dig deep with her hands cuffed behind her back.
Episode 22 - City Under Crackdown, Moist with Tears... (Part 2)
November 11 has gone AWOL, and his team fears the worst. Mao knows where the Brit is - the cat’s view of the Contractor is unobstructed from Amber’s lap. Members of many factions have gathered in EPR headquarters, and the fate of the world is the topic of discussion - at least the world as Amber sees it. She has no qualms speaking freely of her supposed treachery in South America, but it’s her prediction of treasons to come prove that prove to be more eye-opening. Alliances shift easily in this strange war. The Black Reaper will have to face the fact that his most hated rival might be his only hope.
