Not only that, but then she was [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] and pit against fighting Kenichi: Silcardo hoped to have Miu mentally broken via killing Kenichi, and thus complete a [[Face Heel Turn]].}} How does this end? {{spoiler|In failure: Kenichi gets to Miu in the end, she returns to her senses, and they take on their enemies together. It wasn't a complete failure though as Silcardo brought up successful traces of a [[Blood Knight]] on her.}}
