The fourth episode offered a deep dive into Kabura Honda's past and how she became a vampire. Playing a role in turning her into one was Haru Nanakusa, an individual likely holding a key to Nazuna's past. Becoming a vampire rid her of her weak and frail body and introduced her to whole other world.

Call of the Night season 2 episode 4 brief recap

Titled "Do You Want To Be Able To Run", the episode resumed at the point where Nazuna and Ko ran into Kabura at the hospital. Clad in a nurse's uniform and "working the overnight shift", she warned the pair not to approach Room 307 as it was believed to be haunted. But needless to mention, they did go close.

Ko was suspecting Kabura to be hiding something. With Nazuna in tow, he picked up on something odd that she had about Kabura being cold "for ages" and excused himself to use the restroom. Nazuna waited outside, unbeknownst to her that Kabura had grabbed Ko and taken him elsewhere.

Now switching to Kabura and Ko, the latter questioned Kabura about Nazuna being her offspring, but that wasn't the case. At this point, Nazuna arrived and questioned Kabura about her offspring, but even that was incorrect. Ultimately, Kabura tossed Nazuna a blood bag of her human blood, to reveal information.

As the series established, vampires can learn about a person upon sucking their blood. In this case, Nazuna experienced a scene featuring a look into Kabura's origins. She was a sickly and frail girl, having repeated hospital visits and tended to by a Nazuna lookalike, named Haru Nanakusa.

On one occasion, she heard her friends speak about her behind her back and that brought about a realization - they didn't truly know her and viewed her a burden. She too was tired of being sick so often and wanted to be able to run again. Haru here was key as she was actually a vampire, revealing herself to Kabura and offering her the opportunity to run again by turning her into a vampire.

Call of the Night season 2 episode 5 has been set up to offer important information about Nazuna's past. With episode 4 showcasing Kabura's origin story and her transformation by Haru Nanakusa, Call of the Night season 2 episode 5 will possibly delve deeper into her adjusting to her new life.

It may even shed light on her relationship and the whereabouts of Haru, a key to Nazuna's past. Call of the Night season 2 episode 5 will also see Ko learn more about becoming a vampire, as he has been witnessing. Again, Ko having seen Kabura’s vulnerability could evolve his dynamic with Nazuna and compel the latter in facing parts of her past she may have buried a while ago.
