Gachiakuta Episode 12 is set to bring the series to one of its most intense moments yet.
The aftermath of Amo’s psychological games has left the Cleaners in disarray, turning the gothic tower into a mind-bending battleground.
With Rudo lost in an illusion of Chiwa and most of the squad under Amo’s control, only Tamsy and Zanka remain fully aware of the danger surrounding them.
The upcoming episode will follow the duo’s struggle to break through Amo’s mental manipulation while fighting off their own teammates, who have been forced into becoming enemies.
The stakes are higher than ever — if they fail, the mission could collapse, and the Cleaners may never regain their unity.
Fans won’t have to wait long for the next chapter of this tense arc.
Gachiakuta Episode 12 will premiere on September 29, 2025, keeping in line with the anime’s weekly schedule.

Japan: 11:00 PM JST
North America: 7:00 AM PDT / 10:00 AM EDT

Episode 12 promises high-stakes action and emotionally charged confrontations. Viewers can expect:
Tamsy and Zanka’s Last Stand: As the only Cleaners not under Amo’s control, they must subdue their comrades without causing lasting harm.
Tamsy’s Vital Instrument Spotlight: This episode may reveal the full power of her mysterious weapon, which could hold the key to freeing everyone from Amo’s grasp.
Rudo’s Emotional Struggle: His illusion of Chiwa continues to cloud his judgment, making his eventual awakening a pivotal moment for the team.
Claustrophobic Tower Battles: The eerie setting will heighten the tension, pushing the Cleaners to their physical and mental limits.
The previous episodes have explored the Cleaners’ mission to eliminate threats in the wasteland, only for them to stumble into Amo’s sinister trap.
Initially appearing as a helpless survivor, Amo revealed herself as a dangerous foe with a Vital Instrument that releases memory-triggering scents, bending victims’ minds to her will.
Episode 11 escalated the conflict, with Delmon’s water-based Vital Instrument becoming a deadly threat.
His attacks can make opponents absorb water until they dangerously expand, adding a brutal physical danger to Amo’s psychological warfare.
The upcoming episode must resolve whether the Cleaners can overcome this twofold assault — breaking Amo’s control while surviving Delmon’s deadly abilities.
The outcome is expected to have lasting consequences for Rudo’s character development and the team’s trust in one another.
