 
Whew! It's been a while since we've started an episode with a pointless flashback, so I was getting worried.
Here we see Roan on the day he became a Crusader. The man knighting him nearly puts his crotch in Roan's kneeling face.
  
Once more, the writers think we're all retarded, so Roan must remind us that all he wants to do is protect people. And by that, he means obsess over Yuufa.
Roan jabs his Fire Katana into the ground and leaves it there. If swords could sing, I think it'd be bursting out with Hallelujahs.
  
Because the plot isn't as important as fan service, the first real scene of this episode is of Soling and Sailor Kafra Moon (her real name is "W", not that it matters to me) fighting over a set of ear plugs. I'm sure someone out there gets turned on by this, and that makes me sad.
 
Okay, back with what's important. Roan, being the only one left to protect Yuufa at the moment, announces that he'll take on Emo!Keough while Yuufa takes care of Iruga. Not that Yuufa will Heal him or anything.
 
Roan, even though his primary objective is to protect Yuufa, gets distracted by walking around in a circle with Emo!Keough...to the point that Emo!Keough is just a sword swing away from chopping off the two people Roan is supposed to protect.
It makes no sense each time you watch it.
  
In any case, an actual...worthwhile fight between Roan and Emo!Keough breaks out.
Emo!Keough shoots waves of DARKNESS out of his hands to generate a smoke effect around Roan. Roan charges from out of the smoke so Emo!Keough can counter with a trippy Matrix-like back flip.
  
The main purpose of this fight is to show off all of Roan's new skills as he shouts them in Engrish. Oh joy.
First on the list is REFLECT-O SHIELD-O!! Except that it doesn't reflect Magnum Breaks in-game, from what I remember.
  
This fight's secondary purpose is to show how much stronger Roan has gotten from his last fight with Emo!Keough. Damn, Emo!Keough is such a tool right now. Look, he's getting his ass kicked by Roan of all people.
And since you're just dying to know the Engrish pronunciations: SHIELD-O CHARGEY!! and SHIELD-O BOO-MAH-RANG!! Except I'll be naming the latter Shield Boomerwang, because VGR has corrupted my mind.
