He also annoys Ookoba by telling him that those girls have revived as zombies. A phrase that will be relevant later.

After discovering the identity of 6 out of 7 girls from Franchouchou, Arata confronts Kotaro in the EFS about the true identity of the Franchouchou girls. Kotaro remains silent about it and makes Arata angry because he thinks Kotaro is using dead girls for exploitation. Arata threatens Kotaro to reveal the article soon so his plan to do the revenge concert doesn't go ahead. At night, and with the article ready, Arata prepares to send it, but suddenly Karatsu's light goes out, and he can't send the article.

He goes to see them in the area above the shopping center and discovers their true zombie form and is visibly concerned with how they will perform without the proper makeup. When their masks are broken, he is visibly scared, but luckily for the girls, the locals think it's some kind of makeup to entertain children. Kotaro arrives after Arata realized that Franchouchou does this out of love for Saga and that they are girls who operate independently.
