Today Is a Good Day to Die

 is the tenth episode of the Hypnosis Mic -Division Rap Battle- Rhyme Anima. It aired on December 5, 2020.

Plot
The first round of the Division Rap Battle is concluded on MAD TRIGGER CREW's victory, so Fling Posse and Matenro are getting ready to clash in the second round. Samatoki tells Ichiro to face the reality and admit his failure, however, he suddenly notices Nemu in the Party of Words uniform but keeps it to himself. Meanwhile, Otome and Ichijiku both decide that it's time to get a secret weapon they prepared.

Prior to the battle, Doppo feels utterly nervous, while Hifumi tries to calm him down. Meanwhile, Jakurai recalls Ramuda's involvement in the situation with his assistant Yotsutsuji and how it resulted in the end of their friendship.

Ichijiku summons Ramuda to her office and hands him the True Hypnosis Mic to mindhack Jakurai and get him to work for the Party. Ramuda realizes that the Party made their choice in Jakurai's favor, since using the True Hypnosis Mic will kill him, so instead he decides to use the mic and put Jakurai down, so the Party would get nothing. Gentaro and Dice notice Ramuda's weird behavior but keep it cool.

In the battle, Doppo fails to land a solid hit on Fling Posse, so they gain an upper hand and damage Matenro badly. Ramuda prepares to use the mic he was given on Jakurai, however, Dice and Gentaro suddenly stop him. Although being unaware of Ramuda's intentions, their words convince him not to use the mic and proceed with the battle, much to Ichijiku's shock.

Even though Jakurai manages to heal Hifumi with his rap, Fling Posse take out both of them with a group verse. As Fling Posse are getting ready for their victory, Doppo suddenly unleashes his rap ability, the Berserker, and defeats Fling Posse in one go, without even realizing it.

Matenro wins the battle, while Otome and Ichijiku question Ramuda's actions, as if he developed a free will. Ramuda, however, doesn't feel down while being surrounded by his friends, saying that today is a good day to die.
