What Happened in Gachiakuta Episode 4?
Gachiakuta Episode 4 opens with Rudo arriving at the Cleaners’ headquarters alongside Enjin, Riyo, and Zanka. Here, Enjin introduces him to Semiu, the group’s receptionist, whose Vital Instrument is a pair of glasses that enhance her vision and let her assess someone’s abilities. She analyzes Rudo and notices something unusual in his aura, but chooses not to report it. Instead, she tells Enjin that Rudo is already pretty athletic, but would need training to be able to draw on his Giver powers on command.
Enjin gives Rudo a tour of the HQ and explains the different divisions within the Cleaners. When they reach the boss’s office, Rudo tries to storm in, hoping to negotiate for information about returning to the Sphere. Enjin stops him and advises him to work in exchange for information. Inside, they find the office empty. Semiu tells them that the boss is off on business, and no one knows when he will return. Rudo gets annoyed at this, but then Riyo suggests he come with her on a field mission.

What Was Rudo’s First Mission
Semiu briefs them on their mission. A nearby town has reported trash beasts gathering near its barricades, and the residents have requested a cleanup. She explains the dangers of the polluted zone and hands Rudo a mask, warning him that inhaling the toxic air for even 15 minutes could be fatal.
Rudo then heads out with Riyo and meets the Supporters, a faction within the Cleaners who help in operations without having Giver powers. There, he meets Gris, a Supporter with an absurdly strong grip that stuns Rudo during a handshake.

On the mission, Riyo uses her Vital Instrument, a massive pair of scissors called The Ripper, to mow down the smaller trash beasts before moving to the biggest one. However, even after slicing the massive trash beast in half, it still doesn’t go away. As the Supporters fight off the smaller enemies, one trash beast blindsides a Supporter. Rudo rushes in and creates a strange spiky weapon from a stick, but he struggles to control it. Riyo saves him and praises his instinct to help.
She then finishes off the massive trash beast by targeting its weak spot and reveals that it had a fused Vital Instrument inside. The episode ends with one of the human traffickers from Episode 2 waking up in a dark room, where he sees a hooded figure. The figure asks him about the spherite kid who attacked him, setting the stage for a new threat.

What to Expect from Gachiakuta Episode 5
With Rudo’s first mission complete, Episode 5 will likely explore what this successful outing means for his growth as a Cleaner. He may start receiving formal training to improve his Vital Instrument control and build chemistry with the rest of the Cleaners team. More focus on Riyo, Zanka, or even the Supporters could reveal new sides to these characters.
We saw episode 4 end with a mysterious hooded figure questioning one of the human traffickers about Rudo’s whereabouts. Episode 5 could explore who this figure is, what his motives are, and how he connects to Rudo.
