The Ruined Angel (2008)
Casshern meets Sophita, a female robot who enjoys fighting and killing her own kind. She is dubbed "Angel of Ruin" by the robots who heard of her and feared by them. Sophita wants to fight Casshern, but the latter refuses. She tells him that fighting is her way of living, albeit in a twisted way. Unable to instigate him to fight, she leaves. A group of robots who heard of Casshern’s reappearance ambushes Sophita to draw Casshern’s attention. True enough, Casshern appears to rescue her, taking a blow from the robot leader. However, the robot leader does not want to kill Casshern any longer, now that he wants to live out his life without shortening it. In the aftermath, Sophita forces Casshern to fight her. Casshern then allows Sophita to run him through with his sword, making her realize she genuinely cares about him and finally stops fighting him. She leaves, telling Casshern that they will eventually meet again.

The Man Who Killed the Sun Named Moon (2008)
Lyuze appears before Casshern again, who proceeds to condemn him with Luna’s death. Luna was dubbed the "Source of Life" for this world. Long ago in the past, Lyuze’s sister Liza was tasked to protect Luna, but was slaughtered along with Luna by Casshern. Before dying, Liza tells her sister about Casshern and makes her promise to take revenge on him. Lyuze attacks Casshern, but his flesh is able to regenerate, thus rendering her attacks useless. Casshern almost kills Lyuze in his berserk mode, but manages to take control of himself and flees. Meanwhile, Ringo and Ohji trade usable parts to robots who are in need of them. A robot attacks and steals the parts from them. Casshern arrives to stop it, but again loses control and kills several unrelated robots. He only stops when he sees Ringo, who is still terrified of him. Before anyone can react, an unknown person appears before them.
