The Plot Summary:
Unzen gets a call from Yobuko and learns that she,
Yoshinogari (the one with the claws I assume), Kunisaki (the one with the pink
bicycle I assume), and the Disciplinary Committee Vanguard members plus backup have
all failed their task. Unzen tells Yobuko that she should back out as he warns
her about Medaka striking back but Yobuko tells Unzen that Medaka is not at all
a pacifist and relays to him what Zenkichi had told her.
Zenkichi told her that
Medaka was not trying to save him, Akune, and Kikaijima but that it was Yobuko,
Yoshinogari, and Kunisaki that she was trying to save. Had any of the three
been harmed, their attackers would have been harmed just as much back in
return. Yobuko buys this but she believes it is a bluff and tells Unzen that
none of the Disciplinary Committee members were hurt in the attacks. Yobuko
continues to tell Unzen that Medaka is not the type to retaliate when attacked
which causes him to crush his smartphone. Completely loathing at the thought
that Medaka was trying to save both allies and enemies, Unzen decides to go and
deal with the Student Council himself all by himself.

| It's okay guys, she was just better than you. |
Medaka reveals what caused all of those holes to be
something called the Super Ball. She explains that they are capable of bouncing
all over the place and believes it is Unzen’s weapon of choice. Unzen appears
in the Student Council office and confirms that is what he uses but that his
are different from the regular kind. He tells Medaka that she and he are
opposites of the same coin, saying that they are both monsters and that one
loves humans while the other loathes them. Zenkichi suspects that something is
wrong with Unzen coming to just talk with Medaka. Medaka soon realizes that the
Super Balls are not just Super Balls but custom-made explosives. Medaka does
exactly what Unzen expected her to do: ask him to stop but he sets off the
explosions before she could finish.
Unzen surveys the damage done to the Student Council office
and finds that he has failed: One of his explosives failed to explode as Unzen
realizes that Medaka has splashed water on not just it but many others. He
finds that she had broken the window shortly before the explosives went off and
to his dismay, finds that all of the Student Council members are all unharmed,
save for Medaka. Medaka tells him that she had used the rug to wrap Zenkichi,
Akune, and Kikaijima up to protect them from the shockwave of the blasts. Unzen
comes to realize that Medaka is not at all a sane person and mocks her.

| With that face, I don't believe you. |
It is then that Medaka snaps and all hell breaks loose. She
tells him she will not forgive him. The force of her words causes Unzen to feel
fear for a moment. Medaka tells him that the ideals he keeps saying that she
believes in are false and that she is merely only trying to do what she
believes is right but she would never let any ideals, if she did have any, put
the lives of her friends in danger. Akune tells Zenkichi that Medaka’s
transformation is just like what happened back in their first year of middle
school. Unzen moves to attack Medaka who punches him straight through the
building. Medaka sees Unzen has survived the attack due to his uniform’s
special properties and is thrilled to deliver more to him.
The Review:
Medaka's transformation is the turning point of the series and it was a thrilling way to end it with the stakes raised high for both her and Unzen. Her quick reaction to the explosives is inhuman enough that Unzen was shocked by it. She is clearly a different person having given into her rage.
While the fight came at the near end of the episode (just that one punch from Medaka sent Unzen straight through the school building), the execution of it was great. The fight starts in the next episode however as all of this is just build-up to it.
Zenkichi and Akune talking about how Medaka had transformed three years prior to the current situation is something to keep a mind on. They act as if it is nothing new. This episode has proved that Medaka is not just some perfect being...or is she?
