Nyx, a new contender, is revealed.

1 - High Spirits - Vagrant Warrior

Reina is walking outside of town when she encounters Melona, and tells her she is going to defeat her for attacking travellers. Melona taunts Reina for being such a weak fighter, and says she only wants to fight decent warriors as she is a participant in Queens Blade, a tournament held every four years to decide who is going to be the next Queen. Listy is watching the battle from the sidelines. Just as Melona is about to kill Reina, Listy intervenes and saves her life. Listy tends to Reina until she recovers and takes her as a prisoner back to the Bansu castle to recover the bounty on her head. When Listy arrives at the castle Claudette appears and arrests Listy for being a thief and imprisons her in the castle. Listy escapes from prison and steals the Bansu family heirloom breastplate. She hides in Reinas room and gives Reina the armor, then leaves, encountering Claudette outside and they fight. Melona appears at Reinas window. They fight, and Reina defeats Melona by stopping her shooting acid from her breasts, causing her to explode.

2 - Smite Evil! An Unexpected Battle

Leina is having trouble finding accommodations until she mentions she is in the Queens Blade, and the greedy hotel manager rushes to fill her order and ends up rooming her with Echidna. Tomoe and Shizuka meet Melpha, and Tomoe admires her for dressing more appropriately than other competitors. It is revealed that Nyx used to be a maid for the Vance Family, and was treated cruelly by Elina. Aldra wants a new servant to lead the Assassins, and sends a fake letter to lure Risty to her palace. Once there, she awakens the hate in Ristys soul, making Risty her servant. The first match is fought: Tomoe vs Melpha, where Tomoe finds that Melpha uses lewd Holy Poses to fight, giving Tomoe the resolve to defeat her perversion. Another match begins: Elina vs Nyx.

2 - Ambitious Undertaking - Warrior Shrine Maiden

Tomoe, a Warrior Priestess, and Shizuka, a Kouma Ninja who has defected, are meditating in the shrine they tend to in Hinomoto. Tomoe decides she is going to travel to the Continent to compete in the Queens Blade tournament. During the night, the Kouma Ninja attack the temple. As the battle is being waged, one Kouma Ninja sets off a bomb, destroying much of the temple the priestesses occupy. Trapped in the burning buildings, Tomoe and the other priestesses attempt to escape. However, the Kouma Ninja transform into a giant toad which starts killing the priestesses. Eventually, Tomoe gathers her inner strength and defeats the giant toad. She is then saddened by the loss of her friends, and declares she will avenge them and win the Queens Blade tournament for them. The next morning, Tomoe and Shizuka set off across the sea for the mainland.

3 - Fiery Passion! Ignited Karma

It is revealed that Nyx is enslaved to a tentacle demon lord named Funikura, who has given her magical fire power, yet often molests her with its tentacles. Elina realizes that Nyx is a coward without Funikura, and tricks her into relinquishing it, upon which Nyx surrenders. Risty is revealed as the new leader of the Assassins of the Fang. Aldra turns Funikura to stone, saying that old demons should not wander free. Nowa gets lost in the Gynos marketplace and is almost raped by a gang of street punks who were swiftly beaten by Echidna. Nowa and Alleyne are summoned to fight in a swamp, as are Echidna and Irma. It is then revealed to be a team match: Alleyne and Nowa vs Echidna and Irma.

3 - Full Power - Veteran Soldiers

Tomoe and Shizuka arrive on the mainland. Tomoe attempts to blend in by choosing an outfit more fitting for the mainland when she overhears a Queens Blade battle being undertaken. Reina and Listy reach the entrance to where the Queens Blade tournament is being held. Echidna is here, charged with returning Reina to Claudette. Echidna paralyzes Reina and Listy with her snake and steals Listys gold. Reina decides to enter a competition to earn enough money to continue. The competition involves mud wrestling for a large crowd. Reina is victorious but only wins 5 gold, not enough to pay their bills, so she has to keep fighting, however this time in an oil match against Echidna. Echidna has the upper hand in the battle as Reina has difficulty fighting in the oil, and Echidna chases out all the spectators just as she is about to kill Reina. Meanwhile Listy breaks into where the winnings are kept and steals them. Echidnas snake Renta bites Listy on the chest and poisons her but at the last moment Echidna gives her an anti venom. Reina has passed out and when she comes to Listy is gone. Reina heads off to find Listy.

4 - Showdown! Mutually Seeking Bonds

Irma refuses to help Echidna, so Alleyne and Nowa resolve to pick them off one by one. Echidnas past is revealed. Echidna manages to trap Alleyne in a pitcher plant, then to pin Nowa. Alleyne breaks free and takes the initiative against Echidna, but Irma appears, threatening to kill the trapped Nowa and forcing Alleyne to surrender. Leina brings her sword to Cattleya for repair again, while Ymirs attempts to sell weapons go unnoticed in the market. Cattleya states her resolve to reunite her family. The next set of matches begins: Reina vs Ymir and Cattleya vs Airi, the latter being fought in the room where Aldra keeps all of those she has turned to stone.

4 - Rivalry - The General of Storm

Claudette arrives where Reina and Listy were the night before and encounters Echidna who explains she let Reina go so that Claudette could become countess and hence reward her. Claudette goes to find Reina, and has a flashback to where she rescued Reina as a child. Reina eats a poisonous mushroom and Nanael turns up to help her out with some medicine. Reina asks Nanael where Listy is, but she does not know. Claudette arrives and chastises Reina for consorting with thieves and challenges her to a fight to decide who will be the next countess. Tomoe and Shizuka watch the battle from afar and decide Claudette will be victorious. Claudette forfeits to protect Reinas honor but Reina refuses to accept the forfeit and continues to fight, asking why she has to be the heiress and does not understand why Claudette just accepts it, when her father did not like her at all. Claudette says she does it for the Bansu family and attacks Reina, defeating her swiftly with a lightning attack. The ground gives way and Reina almost falls from the cliff, with Claudette grabbing her hand as she dangles over the edge. Reina slips from her hand and falls into the ravine below.

5 - Strategy! Royal Palace of Lament

Ymir uses the fact that her bout is being broadcast to advertise the effectiveness of her weapons, especially since Leina is using a Cattleya weapon. Leina emerges victorious, however. Lana is hanging on to Cattleya during her fight with Airi, but actually proves to be helpful as Airi cannot bring herself to kill him. Cattleya is winning when she sees that Owen is frozen inside one of the stones in Aldras Palace of Grief and breaks down crying, conceding defeat. Aldra promises to reunite Cattleya with her husband, and does so by turning her to stone as well. Filled with grief, Lana grabs Cattleyas spear and tries to attack Aldra. Aldra is about to turn him to stone too when Airi rescues him and they escape. They are confronted by Risty and the Assassins of the Fang, but when Risty is about to strike Lana down, she remembers the orphans she used to care for and hesitates, allowing them to escape. Lana keeps following Airi around, and she resolves to care for him in Cattleyas stead. When Cattleya does not return, Ymir asks Leina to allow her to care for her sword from now on. The next match is set: Claudette vs Menace.

5 - Resurrected Curse - The Queen of Ancient Times

Reina is missing, swept down the river at the bottom of the ravine, and Echidna goes searching for her. Reina has been enslaved by Menace inside her pyramid. Tomoe and Shizuka approach where Menace is holding Reina, in the Queens Capital. A sandstorm appears and Reina, still possessed, attacks Tomoe and Shizuka. Nanael appears and turns this into a Queens Blade round between the possessed Reina and Tomoe. Tomoe and Nanael become trapped in a pyramid with many booby traps however Nanael manages to escape by finding a hole in the wall. Just as Tomoe is about to drown in a water trap Nanael returns to witness Tomoe using her sword to wedge open a brick in the wall and drain the water out, encountering Reina after she escapes. Tomoe manages to break the curse on Reina, causing Menace to attack Tomoe, and causing the bridge they are standing on to crumble, with Reina falling into the abyss below. Shizuka rescues Tomoe from Menace, and explains to Menance how her kingdom failed because of the failure of the princess without realising Menace was that princess. Menace through her anger causes the pyramid to self destruct, and Tomoe, Shizuka and Nanael are washed outside as it is destroyed. Menace states her intention of resurrecting the Kingdom of Amar.

6 - Complication! Changing Premonition

Claudette and Menace are fighting in a desert, giving Menace the upper hand. Her sand attacks confuse Claudette, and she uses cursed attacks to drain Claudettes strength. It begins to rain, however, which weakens her sand attacks, and Claudette emerges victorious. Menace is later turned to stone by Aldra, who says that ancient things should stay in the past. The first round is over, with Risty advancing by some unexplained method, and Nanael advancing because her foe (presumably Melona) did not appear. Nanael is dismayed that no one is placing bets on her, and uses all of Melphas money to place a large bet on herself while in disguise, so as Melphas roommate, she must subsist on vegetables from her garden. Meanwhile, Risty is pursuing Irma throughout the city. She corners her and is about to kill her when Echidna intervenes and shelters Irma for a while, but Aldra sets the next match so that Irma must fight Risty anyway. Tomoe is also summoned to fight Elina.

6 - Promise - Forest of the Watchman

Reina recovers outside the pyramid, on the edge of a forest, and a Maid of Temptation, Airi is turning the forest into a swamp. She is attacked by the Nowa, Watchmen of the Forest. Airi catches Nowa and steals her life energy. Reina intervenes and has to fight Airi. Airi starts draining her life energy but Reina breaks free and Airi disappears after slashing Reina across the chest. Nowa nurses Reina back to health, introducing her to Combat Instructor Alleyne who heals her wounds, after explaining how the elves do not normally humans into the forest. Reina enters the main elf city and the elves are not pleased, and confront Nowa about it. Elina goes to search for her sister, and holds Claudette in the castle. The elf council force Nowa to leave the village and fight in Queens Blade. Alleyne wanted to compete, but was not allowed by the elders. Reina stops Nowa leaving the forest and causes her to fight, trying to dissuade her from competing. Nowa convinces Reina to let her compete and they two of them part ways.

7 - Freeze! Circumstances Beyond Calculations

Irma looks for an opening to strike in her fight with Risty, and finds one when Risty starts having flashbacks to her old, righteous self. However, Irma misses in her killing blow, and is defeated instead. Echidna retrieves her afterwards, and the two depart together. Elina shakes Tomoes resolve by calling her a hypocrite in regards to how she can call herself righteous while killing people. Tomoe tells Elina she has formed a bond with Leina, since they shared food and shelter on their journey, which Elina misinterprets, thinking that Tomoe has slept with Reina. Elina attacks in a frenzy, but Tomoe pulls through victorious. Ymir is pondering how best to augment Leinas sword. The next match is set: Nanael vs Airi in the Palace of Grief. Tomoe returns from her victorious battle to find a note from Shizuka, leading her to a graveyard. Shizuka reveals that she never actually left the Kouma Ninja, and has been posing as Tomoes friend to lower her guard so she could kill her. Tomoe finally gains the will to fight her friend, and kills her. In dying, Shizuka says that being able to kill her best friend has made Tomoe stronger since these emotional bonds would only hinder her resolve as a warrior.

7 - Kourin - Angel of Glory

In heaven, Nanael is summoned by Seraphim, the head angel who plans to exile her as she has forced people to fight each other. Seraphim threatens to send her to hell unless she goes to where the Swamp Witch is and find out what the Swamp Witch is up to. Hachiel, a fellow angel, goes with her and falls into the swamp. She is rescued by Reina. Nanael is relaxing in a hot spring by the entrance to hell when Melona, Menace and Airi show up in a nearby spring. They all discuss about how they were defeated by Reina and Nanael passes out from the heat and turns up in the same spring as the other three. Nanael accidentally tells them she has come to observe the Swamp Witch. Nanael offers to tell them where Reina is for information about the Swamp Witch. They tell her that the three of them have been asked to participate in Queens Blade. Nanael tells them the direction to go to find Reina and they run off to find her. Nanael realises she has put Reina is grave danger and goes to stop the three of them from reaching her and they fight, and Nanael swiftly defeats them. Upon returning to Heaven Seraphim still banishes Nanael from heaven, and tells her she must follow and help Reina on Earth.

8 - Shameful, Shudder! Fighting Angel

Airi and Nanael are both desperate to finish the match quickly, as both are starving, and begin to fight in earnest. Airi weakens Nanael by causing her to spill more of the sacred milk, which spills onto some of the petrified people in the palace. Airi runs out of time because it has been too long since she has consumed vital force and due to her desire not to do so in front of Lana, and Airi disappears. Aldra is visibly disturbed by the spilling of the sacred milk. Lana has lost another guardian, and this time goes to Ymir, deciding to help her fix Leinas sword. Lana reveals Cattleyas fate to Ymir and Leina, and Leina says she will save Cattleya. The sacred milk causes the stone Melona was encased in to crack, and she manages to escape.

Elina announces she will also compete in Queens Blade. Shizuka encounters Irma, a member of the Queens Assassins of the Fang, and starts fighting her near the hot springs. Shizuka is defeated swiftly. Elina tries to fight Tomoe, but she refuses as it is an unjustified battle. Shizuka is captured by Irma after the battle and questioned about her time as a Demonic Ninja and is beaten unconscious. Tomoe spends the night looking for her and encounters Irma in disguise who brings her to Shizuka and threatens to kill Shizuka if Tomoe does not help her. Shizuka reveals that it was Irma who made the Demonic Ninjas attack them back in their homeland. Tomoe challenges Irma to a Queens Blade fight to avenge the deaths of her fellow priestesses.

Claudette and Risty are fighting in the courtyard of Vance Castle just as Vances army is leaving in his bid to overthrow Aldra by conventional military force. Claudette is initially victorious, knocking out Risty with a lightning bolt. She tries to dissuade the Count from his attempted overthrow, saying that it will only breed war across the continent, and reveals that Lady Maria, Vances wife and her adoptive mother, told her to heal Vances pain if she did not return from the Queens Blade, and she has been serving loyally to soothe Vances emotional scars. Vance tries to convince her to serve him again in his bid to overthrow Aldra, but she refuses, and he tells her to leave. Risty then awakens, however, and it is now apparent that she was sent to kill the Count. Claudette manages to stop her, but is eventually defeated herself when Risty collapses a roof on her. As Claudette is teleported back to Gynos, she reconciles with the Count, who then withdraws his army. Aldra calls it a success: though the Count still lives, his coup was thwarted.

10 - Cherished Desire! Reason For Fighting

Nanael is drinking milk to drown her sorrows at the bar where Nyx works, and Nyx tells her of the rumor about the horned monster seen in the woods. Nanael thinks it might be Melona, and goes to seek her with Melpha. She instead finds Tomoe in a dangerous mood. Elina returns home after Claudette tells her that she is the only one of the three sisters capable of serving Count Vance any more, as neither Claudette nor Leina have the will to. Nanael tries to get Leina to ambush Tomoe in the forest, but then decides to tell her what they know about Aldra so far. Between them, Nanael, Leina, and Ymir determine that Aldra has to be allied with some sort of heavenly creature because the sacred milk actually has a negative impact on the divine (and conversely a positive one on the demonic, which is how it was able to revive Melona). Melona spies on the conversation, posing as Lana. Leina is summoned at last to fight Tomoe, and they battle in the ruins of Tomoes old shrine in Hinomoto. Tomoes hair has turned white, and Aldra says that she is driven by the ghosts of her friends and the suffering in her heart. Tomoe says that, for Shizukas sake, she has become a demon who will win at any cost. A desperate fight begins with Tomoe having the upper hand, utilizing a lot of powerful techniques. Leina eventually recovers and says that she cannot lose either, and that she accepts everything that has happened, including Tomoes feelings. Tomoe rejects that, replying that one needs to be heartless to be strong. Leina triumphs, and Tomoe claims she finally understands her. Ymir uses the fight as advertising for the sword she re-forged, and sells many cheap knockoffs of it. Tomoe awakens in the Palace of Grief.

Echidna arrives and challenges Listy to a fight, however after a few minutes of fighting they stop, and Listy announces they will fight again in three days. Reina admits she has no purpose for fighting like everyone else and Tomoe reassures her that she is still right to fight in Queens Blade. Reina slips out during the night and meets Echidna, and asks her to teach her how to fight. Echidna makes her a suit out of tree sap to protect against being injured in the practice battles. Echidna fights her with all her strength and Reina is so afraid she can barely move. Emboldened by this, Echidna and Reina fight non stop for two days and nights.

Reina comes to fight Listy, only to discover she has already been defeated by Claudette.

11 - Duel To The Death! Culminating Showdown

Tomoe demands to know why Aldra had the Kouma Ninja attack Hinomoto. Aldra says that she has been searching for her sister, and Hinomoto is the only area outside of her rule. She says burning the country to the ground would be worth it to find her sister. Aldras past is revealed: she and her sister were outcasts for being of mixed demonic descent, and were forced to wander. Her sister mysteriously disappeared one day at the edge of a forest, and Aldra, in desperation, found a spirit without a body. The spirit inhabited Aldras body in return for giving her great power and eternal youth. Aldra offers Tomoe rule over Hinomoto in exchange for her servitude, promising peace for Hinomoto if her sister is found, but Tomoe rejects her offer, remaining loyal to her Empress. Nanael has mysteriously returned to Heaven, and Leina and Risty finally fight. Leina fends off Ristys aggressive style, and eventually causes her to hesitate when she shows her the lucky coin she gave her. Leina scores a hit and Risty falls.

Nanael makes her report to Heaven, where the Head Angel determines that Aldra has made a pact with Delmora, a fallen angel. The final battle begins, with Aldra proving to have overwhelming power. She eventually kicks Leina in the neck, making her collapse. Risty appears at the arena and cheers Leina on, causing her to get back up. Leina shows that she has adopted many of her old foes techniques as she hits Aldra with Claudettes Thunderclap Strike and Tomoes Warrior Kick. Just as Leina has the advantage, however, Aldra petrifies her. The crowd jeers, calling her a demon. Meanwhile, Lana has invaded the palace, trying to rescue his parents by himself. He is confronted by a Fang Assassin, but finds Airis Scythe which still contains some of Airis spirit. He hurls the scythe at the Assassin, and Airi snags enough of the Assassins vital force to reconstitute herself. Nanael overhears the struggle and arrives with more sacred milk, freeing Cattleya and Owen. Melona has been hiding in the palace, though now she is tiny, and Menace is also freed. Aldra flies into a rage at the crowds jeers and petrifies them all except Claudette, Tomoe, and Risty. Even though Leina is petrified, her spirit causes everyones weapons to glow: even those far away like Nowa and Echidna, showing the bonds she has formed with all of them. Nanael frees Leina with more sacred milk, and she counterattacks. Delmora convinces Aldra to remove the seals on his power, but even with his unsealed power, Leina defeats Aldra, causing Delmora to emerge. It is revealed that Delmora separated Aldra from her sister so that she would despair and seek to use his power for revenge so that he could get her body in return. Nyx sees that some of those petrified have been freed, and finally shows resolve of her own by freeing Funikura herself. Nanael pours more sacred milk on Delmora, then Claudette, Tomoe, and finally Leina attack, defeating him as Leina emerges victorious.
