John Smith (ジョン・スミス) is the sixth episode of the second season, and the twenty-sixth episode of The Eminence in Shadow anime adaptation.

Synopsis

 * -|English= John Smith's skill is leagues above even the most skilled fighters! Who is this mysterious person?
 * -|Japanese= ジョンの前に次なる刺客デルタが現れる. シドは一瞬で正体を見破られるが……. 一方、デルタが戻らず悲嘆に暮れるシャドウガーデンでは、アルファが直接動き出すことに.

Trivia

 * For Shadow to end the fight with Alpha, he used a Kung Fu technique which used principles for stomping his footing (the train) to direct the recoil impact up to his arm and channel the force of momentum into his palm strike, blasting Alpha off the train. As Alpha was using magic to turn into mist, this method best assured her defeat without the risk of killing her.
 * In a post-credit scene, Delta had finished hunting Juggernaut and destroyed his Black Tower, howling at the conclusion of her hunt. This was an explanation as to why she was taking so long to report back to Alpha and Gamma.
 * When Iris encountered Alexia with her books, Alexia's reflection about honing her mind as well as her sword spoke to her wisdom due to her pursuit of the truth about Shadow Garden and the Cult of Diablos.
 * However, Alexia's insight unintentionally fueled Iris's quiet inferiority complex, as Iris was still reeling from both of her defeats by Shadow.
