Blue Archive The Animation Episode 4 recap

Titled Masked Swimsuit Gang, Blue Archive The Animation Episode 4 began with Problem Solver 68 dealing with their financial troubles. They decide to take out a loan and complete their mission within the week. Meanwhile, Sensei and the Task Force take out a loan from Kaiser Loans.

In the wake of the recent attacks on Abydos by gangs wielding illegal weapons, the group find themselves beginning to doubt Kaiser Loans. Sensing a connection between the criminal activity and the peculiar policy of Kaiser Loans only accepting cash payments for debts, they embark on a risky mission to uncover the truth.

Their investigation leads them to the underground black market, where criminals peddle their illicit wares. There, they encounter a Trinity General student being targeted by delinquents. Shiroko swiftly comes to her aid, and they learn she is named Hifumi Ajitani. Grateful for the rescue, Hifumi reveals her purpose for being in the market: to acquire a rare Peroro doll. Recognizing Hifumi's intimate knowledge of the area, Sensei recruits her to assist the Task Force in their mission.

Simultaneously, Problem Solver 68 enter a large building, which they identify as a dark bank of the black market. Back at the task Force, the group begins navigating the shadowy corners of the black market, eventually stumbling upon the same dark bank, a place used by criminals to launder their ill-gotten gains.

Their suspicions deepen when they witness a Kaiser Loans car being escorted by Black Market Guards in order to deposit large sums of cash into the bank. This confirms their fears that the debt money paid to Kaiser Loans may be funding the gangs attacking their school.

In a daring move to obtain evidence, the Task Force, along with Hifumi, orchestrate a daring heist under the guise of the Masked Swimsuit Gang. Their objective: to procure the bank's transaction records and expose the truth behind Kaiser Loans' involvement.

However, their plans take an unexpected turn when Problem Solver 68 unwittingly becomes witness to the robbery in progress. Aru, captivated by the audacity of the masked robbers, remains oblivious to their true identities as Abydos students.

After a quick escape, the Task Force not only secures the incriminating records but inadvertently absconds with a staggering sum of 100 million Yen. Serika suggests to use the stolen money to pay off their debts, though the group ends up rejecting the notion after recognizing the ethical dilemma of resorting to criminal means to resolve their predicament.

After being confronted by a still oblivious Aru, they leave the stolen funds for Problem Solver 68 as they flee. Later, Aru's admiration for the Masked Swimsuit Gang makes Kayoko, who had realized their true identity from the beginning, reveal who they were.
