The previous episode, which aired on December 19, 2024, saw the allied forces respond to Freya Familia's offensive strategy, which transformed the War Game's Hide-and-Seek nature into an all-out siege battle. The Freya Familia's executives showcased their strength to overwhelm the allied force's top adventurers.

Even Heith Velvet showcased her battle prowess to neutralize the magic swords. Elsewhere, Ottar mercilessly beat Bell Cranel, who had no way to counter against his formidable power. The episode ended on a chilling note, with Ottar asking Bell to get up and show why he's worthy of Goddess Freya's love.

The anime's official website had previously revealed that episode 12 would be titled Inheritance: Astrea Record. Recently, the website shared a promotional video, highlighting the events from the episode. However, no information on the title of episode 13 has been disclosed yet.

Yet, since both episodes will be consecutively released, Danmachi season 5 episode 12 & 13 will showcase Ryu joining the battle and demonstrating her newfound powers to aid the allied forces. The promotional video for episode 12 suggests the narrative will show the allied army's counterattack against the Freya Familia. It remains to be seen how Ryu can turn the tide of the battle, and how Bell Cranel can survive Ottar's onslaught.
