Episode 19

 is the nineteenth episode of the Fire Force anime.

Summary
The white-clad prepare for the 8th's attack. As a child, Shinra's mother would get him to pick up his toys by telling him that he will be sent to the nether if he doesn't. Shinra remembers promising Sho that if he ever got sent to the nether, he would help him out.

The nether is a forbidden land that even sol's light cannot reach. That is where the white-clad have made their hideout, which they will storm tomorrow.

Middle of the night, Shinra feels his adolla link, witnessing Iris surrounded by fire.

On the way to the nether, Iris explains it is a scary place where inhuman creatures dwell. Upon entrance, it seems to be an ordinary train tunnel. Walking through, smoke begins to surround the 8th's formation and members are plucked and separated from the group. Some are replaced by fake doubles. Only Obi and Vulcan are left together in the passage.

Sho sends Assault to take care of the 8th. Maki is alone against a group of white-clad, who she annihilates with ease. Tamaki protects Iris from Assault, determined to prove she can protect others. Iris assists by pummeling Assault with a large pipe.
