As Masayoshi is left with many questions about Haiji, he receives a call from him whilst staying in a hotel, explaining how he became obsessed with him after witnessing his earliest superhero efforts, deciding he wanted to become his arch nemesis dedicated to doing bad things to Samurai Flamenco. Masayoshi becomes further confused when he hears from the police that Haiji Sawada allegedly died from illness one year ago. The next day, after Haiji tells Masayoshi he intends to do something 'colorful', malicious things are done to the Flamengers, with Jun being pushed down the stairs and Joji being hit by a truck. After receiving more threats from Haiji, Masayoshi meets up with Hidenori, who offers little comfort and even becomes angry when he brings up her missing girlfriend. Upon realising that the only one who has seen or heard Haiji is himself, Masayoshi starts to wonder if he is just imagining him.

After being informed about Haiji, Mari steps up on stage for her concert, only to find Moe and Mizuki had been poisoned. Meanwhile, Masayoshi is called to the hospital by Joji, who had heard someone mention Samurai Flamenco before he was hit by the truck, telling him that he needs to learn to love to become stronger. As Masayoshi becomes hung up over what that means, Sumi offers to give him advice about his situation, asking Akira to investigate Haiji before teaching Masayoshi about the various types of love. Meanwhile, Haiji lures Hidenori into a trap and kidnaps him, instructing Masayoshi to go to his old apartment.
The setting is Shibiru City, Yukimachi Town. While most citizens are enjoying the peace and quiet, one young man makes a stand. His name is Hazama Masayoshi.
Shibiru City is now home to a superhero named Samurai Flamenco. By pure chance, policeman Goto Hidenori learns the identity of Samurai Flamenco, resulting in numerous headaches as he copes with the new hero's atypical sense of justice. Goto arranges for a meeting to put a stop to all of the trouble, but Masayoshi shows up drenched. Masayoshi explains that he doesn't use umbrellas because of an incident in his past.
Samurai Flamenco is receiving more and more views on video sharing sites. Masayoshi is very pleased until a news site begins offering a reward to the person who unmasks Flamenco. That is when another person comes out as Samurai Flamenco. Who is this fake and what is his objective? The battle of Samurai Flamencos is about to begin.
After dealing with the imposter, Samurai Flamenco gets to catch his breath, but then he's captured by some lawbreakers he approached. When all hope appears to be lost, a mysterious new hero appears and saves him. However, the new hero knows Samurai Flamenco's true identity and sees him as a rival. Samurai Flamenco now has a rival superhero. What next?
Samurai Flamenco is becoming jaded as Flamenco Girl runs him ragged. The police have been receiving an increasing number of complaints as the heroes wreak havoc. Masayoshi struggles with his work as it seems that nothing is going right. Masayoshi begins to wonder what it means to be a hero.
A huge sum is offered to whoever exposes the identity of Samurai Flamenco and Masayoshi is facing the risk of his secret identity exposed, until scientist Jun Harazuka appears with some weapons disguised as stationary to help him.
The efforts of Samurai Flamenco and the Flamenco Girls bear fruit and the city becomes a safer place, but Masayoshi is devastated upon learning the secret behind his parents' death. When doing a PR event with the police, Masayoshi and Hidenori find themselves in a pinch when a real monster appears before them.
King Torture, leader of the evil "Torture" organization declares his intention to enslave the people of Japan and dares Samurai Flamenco to challenge him. Since then a monster attacks the city every week, just to be defeated by Flamenco with assistence from Hidenori and the Flamenco Girls. As the heroes always defeat Torture's monsters, the Japanese Government stops caring about it at all and both Masayoshi and the Mineral Girls have a huge leap in their careers, unaware that according to King Torture, everything is going as he planned.
As the monsters sent by Torture are defeated by Masayoshi without further casualties, the population stop bothering at all for their battles and even Mari stops lending him a hand, determined to confront King Torture himself instead. However, Mari ends up captured by King Torture who uses her as a hostage to challenge Samurai Flamenco for a decisive battle.
Samurai Flamenco and King Torture finally come face to face for their showdown. In the occasion, it is revealed that just like Masayoshi, Torture was a boy who enjoyed superhero stories but once realizing that the heroes he idolized never attain the true peace they fight for, he decided to turn to evil instead. After defeating the villain and stopping his master plan with Hidenori's help, Masayoshi reveals his secret identity to the world.
