One! Two! Three! Four!
Five! Six!
--Seven! Eight! --The sounds of exercise
echoing across the field on a sunny afternoon: how peaceful!
If the students didn't have prey in their sights, that is.
Wield your knives properly from all eight directions, now.
From now on, I'm in charge of phys ed.
That makes me a little lonely.
Didn't I tell you to make yourself scarce during this period?
Go play in the sandbox.
You're so mean, Mr. Karasuma.
Why, my students happen to like my gym classes!
Liar. Koro Sensei's physical abilities are just too different.
Remember that one time?
Now let's try jumping side to side. I'll show you how it's done.
As if!
Once you're used to it, toss some cat's cradle into the mix.
Damn, he's good!
He's just too far out.
I'd like a human teacher for gym, thanks.
Boo hoo hoo...
Okay, let's get back to work.
But Mr. Karasuma, is there any point to all this training?
And should we be doing it right in front of our target?
It's the same in assassination as in studying:
Drill the basics and they'll serve you well.
The same?
Isogai, Maehara, step forward.
Try hitting me with those knives.
Are you sure?
As a team?
Those knives won't hurt us humans.
If they give me so much as a scratch, you can go home for the day.
Uh... well, er... okay, then.
Come on.
As you see, with a little knowledge,
even I can handle the knives of two amateurs.
Wow...
If you can't hit me, your chance of hitting him at Mach 20
is slim to none.
See? While we were sparring,
he built Osaka Castle in the sandbox, changed clothes,
and is brewing up some tea!
How infuriating!
Once the whole class is capable of hitting me,
your chance of success will increase by leaps and bounds.
During gym class, I'll be teaching you stabbing, shooting--
all the assassination basics.
Whoa.
That's all for today.
Thank you!
Mr. Karasuma's kinda scary, but he sure is cool!
Right? Do you think he'll pat us on the head if we manage to hit him?
I wonder.
You're trying to steal my popularity from my students, aren't you?!
Don't be ridiculous.
"If the school so desires, it may assign an additional teacher
to the E Class."
It says so right in your employment contract.
My duty is to provide onsite assassin monitoring--
all in the name of killing you.
Please, use the name the students gave me:
Call me "Koro Sensei."
A quiz in sixth period, eh?
Wish we could've gone home after gym.
Hey, Nagisa.
It's been a while.
Karma... you're back!
The theory... of savage youth!
I only speak when it's time to act
I know that's pretty cool
(Searching for our target: we're savage)
Our feelings stray-- they get lost, but move forward
Maybe we're only halfway helpless
What's this wave of irritation?
Proof of our existence?
Look up at the moon and up you go
C'mon now: C-c'mon k-kill c-c'mon --start!
Haven't gone through with it-- that's why it's a drag
The breakthrough you whispered about is finally worth a shout
Haven't gone through with it-- that's why it's a drag (you can do it if you try)
Haven't gone through with it-- that's why it's a drag (I know you can)
"Whatever" is easy to say
But I want to struggle now, I want to burst with you
But still: youth, to the future!
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon! The theory of savage youth!
"Episode 3: Karma Time"
Huh!
So that's the infamous Koro Sensei?
Whoa, he really does look like an octopus.
Karma Akabane... is it? I'd heard your suspension was up today.
But you shouldn't be tardy on your first day back.
It's hard to get back into the swing of things.
Feel free to call me by my first name. Nice to meet you, Teach!
Likewise. Let's make this a fun year.
Wow. You really are fast...
and those knives really do work.
I sliced one up really fine and stuck the pieces on.
But to be caught by such a simple move,
and to jump back all that way... what are you, a scaredy-cat?
He's the first--the first one
to hurt Koro Sensei!
I heard they call you "Koro Sensei" because you're unkillable.
But what's this? Are you a pushover after all?
Nagisa, what kind of person is this Karma?
Well...
We were in the same class our first and second years,
but then his continued violent behavior earned him an expulsion,
and those students end up here in the E Class, too.
But... here he might just be a star student.
What do you mean?
When it comes to deadly weapons and foul play, Karma's got us all beat.
Don't run away, Koro Sensei...
I'll show you what it means to be killed.
What's Koro Sensei been doing all this time?
Like, punching the wall?
Yeah--Karma's smack-talking must have made him mad.
But his tentacles are too soft to damage the walls.
"Koro Sensei's Weak Point #4: His punches are soft"
Ugh--enough!
Quit with the squish-squish! We're trying to take a quiz here!
P-Pardon me!
Hey, Karma, you sure about this? That monster is pissed.
This is all on you, man!
Sure you're not better off holin' up at home?
You'd be pissed, too, Terasaka, if someone'd started to kill you.
Not like when a certain someone screwed up and wet himself.
I did not wet myself! You cruisin' for a bruisin', pal?!
You there! No loud noises during a test!
--Tell that to your tentacles! --Why, that could even be considered cheating!
Sorry, Koro Sensei. I've already finished,
so I'll just sit here quietly and eat my gelato.
Not during class, you won't!
Th-That's the gelato I brought back from Italy yesterday!
It's yours?
Oh, sorry! It was just chilling in the staff room.
"Sorry" won't cut it!
I took pains to fly through the coldest stratosphere to keep that from melting, too!
Huh... So, whaddya gonna do about it?
Hit me?
I will not! I'll just have what's left!
Come now, hand it o--
Anti-me BB's!
Gotcha again!
I'll just keep using the same old tricks.
Even if it interferes with class.
If you don't like it, kill me or anyone else here.
But the second you do...
no one'll see you as a teacher anymore.
You'll just be a murderous monster.
You, the teacher, will be killed by me.
Here's my quiz. Probably got 'em all right.
See ya, Teach. Let's play some more tomorrow.
Karma is extremely quick-witted.
Like here.
He saw there was a line Koro Sensei couldn't cross
without losing his "teacherness,"
and the tactics he uses make him toe that line.
He has the smarts to see the heart of the matter,
and the skill to manipulate just about anyone,
but he uses them to clash with people.
Honestly...
Now he's forced me to go buy more gelato.
He's smart and tough, but as he says, if I'm going to stay a teacher,
I'm not allowed to kill or hurt him.
So... how to deal with him, then?
"Kunugigaoka Station"
See ya, Nagisa!
Yep! See you tomorrow!
Hey, look! It's Nagisa!
Right at home down in the E Class.
Barf. He'll never make it back to our class like that.
Plus, Akabane's back in E Class now that his suspension's over!
That's the pits! I would seriously rather die than wind up there.
Really? You'd rather die?
Like... now?
Akabane!
Like I'd actually do it!
With such great toys to play with, who wants another suspension?
Karma...
So listen, Nagisa, there's something I wanted to ask you.
I understand you know a few things about Koro Sensei.
Uh, well, kind of.
Does he get mad if you call him an octopus?
An octopus?
"Octopus BZZT!" "An easy mistake to make. Be careful!"
On the contrary, I think. His self-portrait is an octopus,
and he picks the octopus character in games.
And when he was digging around in the sandbox...
Octopus trap.
So if he's making jokes like that, I'd say the octopus thing
is kind of his trademark.
Hmm. That gives me a little idea.
What are you up to now, Karma?
I'm happy, is all.
I was wondering what I'd do if he were just some monster,
but turns out he's an actual teacher.
And I get to kill an actual teacher...
I mean, since the last one up and died on me.
I didn't see this coming. My gelato money--gone!
And no hope of getting more before payday!
I'll just have to make my own.
Good morning!
What's wrong, cla--
Whoops! My bad!
I mistook it for you and killed it instead.
Bring it here--I'll dispose of it.
All right.
Bring it on, Koro Sensei.
I don't need to kill your body right now--
I'll start slowly by killing your soul.
Allow me to show you, Karma: the might of these drill tentacles
and the firepower of this missile I filched from the Self-Defense Force!
I'm not about to let my assassin get away scot-free.
I could tell by your pallor that you hadn't eaten breakfast.
I whipped these octopus balls up at Mach speed.
They'll put you well on your way to being nice and healthy.
Open wide!
Karma...
What I do is tend things, take care of them.
Things like assassins' rusty blades.
So keep killing me in earnest all day today.
Every time you do, I'll take care of you.
By the end of the day, your body and mind will be polished to sparkling.
"First Period: Math"
As you see, this number is left over, no matter what you do.
If this indivisibility is getting you down,
then have I got the method for you!
I'll write it on the blackboard. Everyone try solving it together.
Oh, Karma? You're too slow between drawing and firing, I'm afraid.
And since I had plenty of time,
I gave you a little nail art.
"Fourth Period: Home Ec"
Well? How'd you two do, Fuwa?
Mmm, I dunno... It has this kind of sharp tang to it.
Let me try.
Well, why don't you start over?
Toss that batch out, and--
You forgot your apron, Karma.
Don't worry about the soup.
I sucked it all up in midair with a dropper.
Oh, and added sugar while I was at it.
It's much milder!
Adorable!
It's no use.
"Fifth Period: Japanese"
Koro Sensei has tons of weak points.
He screws up from time to time,
and his reaction speed drops to human levels when he's flustered.
--But no matter how good Karma is at surprise attacks...
--"Even as I was thinking this, --But no matter how good Karma is at surprise attacks...
the red frog, having failed again, was making its way back.
I was starting to get bored with it.
...with Koro Sensei on especially high alert,
this assassination was like an impossibly tough video game.
I was not trying to hit the red frog..."
Karma...
Don't sweat it. We'll all do it together.
Once Koro Sensei has his eye on you, you can't kill him by yourself,
no matter the method.
He's not like other teachers.
Teachers, eh...?
Akabane, you're right!
Though you are combative, with your share of behavioral issues.
As long as you're in the right, I'll be on your side!
Yeah, no.
I want to do it.
Nothing'd tick me off more than him dying in some random place.
Karma?
I've certainly taken good care of you today, haven't I?
You can still try to kill me, you know. I'll polish you up even shinier.
Just to make sure...
you are a teacher, correct?
Yes.
And you would, say,
risk your life to protect your students?
Of course--I'm a teacher, after all.
Okay, good. Then I can kill you.
For sure.
So what's it going to be?
If you come to help, you'll be shot to death before you can save me.
If you just let me die, your life as a teacher is over.
Oh, man! Everything's flashing before my eyes!
Are you okay?
3-E--you mean that 3-E?
What an awful pretext for picking a fight.
Huh? I'm in the right here. What's wrong with saving a bullied student?
No, Akabane. No matter how you look at it, you're in the wrong.
Is your head on straight?
Where do you get off injuring the best student in Year 3?
No--sir, wait--
You sided with the E Class and hurt someone with a bright future.
If this affects his exams, it'll be on my head!
He said he'd be on my side--and now this?
"Uh-oh. I'm going to die."
Uh-oh. I'm going to die.
Your grades are the only thing you've got right--
they're why I've always looked the other way.
But once you start hurting my career, it's a different story.
"In here, that teacher dies."
In here, he dies.
I put in for your transfer. Congratulations, Akabane.
You'll be starting your third year in the E Class.
He let me down.
Now he's dead to me.
Koro Sensei! I'll kill you with my own two hands!
Now, which death do you choose?
Karma?
Splendid job on the premeditated assassination starring yourself.
If I saved you at the speed of sound, your body wouldn't hold out.
But if I moved slowly, I'd get hit.
So I tried getting a little sticky.
Damn! What can't these tentacles do?!
You can't shoot now!
Oh, and furthermore...
letting you die is not an option.
Believe in that for your next flying leap.
It's no use. He won't die and he can't be killed.
Not the teacher part of him, anyway.
For being so reckless, Karma, you sure were calm.
Eh, no biggie.
As far as I can figure it,
that would've been my best chance at killing him.
Oh? Out of ideas already?
I have plenty of grooming tools to use in retaliation.
You're kind of a pushover yourself, aren't you?!
I'm feeling murderous, all right...
but this time it's different somehow.
Oh, I'll kill you--maybe even tomorrow.
A healthy, refreshing bloodlust--
looks like you don't need any more TLC.
Let's head on back, Nagisa. We can eat on the way.
Hey! That's my purse!
Then don't leave it in the staff room unattended!
Give it back!
Take it!
But... this is empty!
There wasn't much in there. Call it a donation.
You hypocritical delinquent!
Assassins go in for the kill and wind up sparkling clean
in their target's tentacles.
That's our assassination classroom.
I wonder how we'll try to kill him tomorrow?
Do you hear me?!
The sun shines, leaving a red afterimage
On the backs of closed eyelids
With notebook and pen in my leather bag
C'mon, let's go walking
I draw and I draw
But they don't get any neater
There's nothing wrong with the paint I've chosen
I still remember the shooting star
I saw last night--I was waiting for...
Hello, shooting star
Hello, shooting star again
She's been waiting
That dreaming girl has been here
All this time, ah ah
Just like she was that day, ah ah
Shine again
