Merry Christmas!
What a marvelous Christmas Eve!
Yes, February means Christmas, all right!
Happy New Year!
"New Year" Happy New Year!
A new year is upon us!
Tackle your studies and your assassination with new emotion!
"Best Wishes for the New Year" Tackle your studies and your assassination with new emotion!
"Best Wishes for the New Year" Now, then...
Time to laze the day away.
Where's he going with all this?
So you're trying to take all the fun year-end events you missed out on
and cram them into February?
Ah! Exactly right!
Our only winter break, and not a single one of you came to visit!
And you were so earnestly worried and trying so hard on my behalf
that it didn't feel right for me to invite you over...
Dumb thing to fret about when we were all so bummed out.
With all that behind you, now's the perfect time!
We'll take back the winter break we lost--all at once!
Koro Sensei's living life as frantically as ever.
But it's already February. Future-facing February.
We've got to figure out where we're going before we say goodbye.
There were 32 days left before graduation day--
and before Koro Sensei's dead-line.
"Wait, just hang on a sec!"
I scream, but it gets me nowhere
I put all my strength into being afraid of
The limits that just kept on closing in
Reality is merciless
And time is especially tricky
It's like someone's snatching away the blanket I just can't sleep without
We laughed and fretted
Over silly things, nonsensical things
Once the final bell rings out
The fun times will be over, too
Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of lessons shoved into bags
Like always, like it's "see you tomorrow"
Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of happenings
If you've made me an adult, don't be showing me tears
Bye-bye, yesterday
365 days' worth of memories
"32 Days Till Koro Sensei's Dead-Line" 365 days' worth of memories
Even if I grow up some more
They still won't fade a bit
"20th Period: Valentine's Day Time" "by Hinata Okano"
Future plans, eh...? What high schools are you guys going to?
Someplace a little lower-level to give us breathing room.
Koro Sensei taught us the fundamentals through senior year--
high school can be all about honing our techniques.
Must be nice! We're really pushing ourselves.
"If you're going into communications, you need a solid academic record!"
Or so I've been told.
You sound nothing like him!
Where are you headed, Karma?
Ah, I'll stay at Kunugigaoka.
Huh?!
You mean you'll take the entrance exam all over again?
I figured you for something better.
I mean, you could get into the best high schools around.
Put yourself in the main-campus students' shoes.
The guy they thought they'd chased away is back--
and standing head and shoulders above them.
What could be better than seeing those punks' humiliated mugs
for three whole years?
Such a winning personality.
Besides,
there are better schools for average academic ability,
but only Kunugigaoka has students who'd be fun to take on
in one-on-one academic showdowns.
I'll have no problem getting the job I'm after.
I figure I can take this time to just enjoy a battle or three.
That's so you, Karma.
You've got your dream school, right, Nagisa?
Uh-huh.
And Kayano,
Sugino,
and everyone else...
It's almost time to say goodbye.
Each of us, going our own way.
My top pick is Keisetsu University's high school.
It's crazy tough, but the best shortcut for getting into the college
Mom wanted to send me to.
But after college...
With these odd talents of mine, out of step with the times,
I'm not sure what I can be, or what I want to be.
But everyone else is figuring it out...
Nagisa? Nagisa!
I said, I finished the workbook!
Sorry, Sakura.
What are you zoning out for?
Here you were vowing that you'd give me the academic chops
to march right back into school this term.
It wasn't a vow, exactly--
more like "it'd be great if you could."
Hmm. So you're pondering your future?
Junior-high kids have it rough.
I don't even know what I want to be.
What is there?
I mean, apart from being a teacher?
Ever since I met you, that's what you've been to me.
A... a teacher?
And if you don't want to be a teacher,
--It took her saying it for me to realize: --I could let you be my boyfriend!
people admire those who change them.
Like a child whose life is saved by a doctor
admiring doctors and wanting to be one.
Like a boy bewitched by beautiful skills
longing to be an assassin...
Just like I admired that teacher of ours.
"Keisetsu U. High School Exam Admission Ticket"
But...
Hey, what's that?
Someone's relatives?
Go, go, Nagisa!
Go, go, Nagisa! Yay!
"Beautiful English Cram School" Wh-What's with this... indistinct mob of giants?!
"Beautiful English Cram School" They're overshadowing our school's famous joint send-off!
"Beautiful English Cram School" What the heck are you doing, Koro Sensei?!
Cheering you on, of course!
How could I not be there for my dear student's big moment?
Eeeyikes! Is that the time?!
--Hurry, hurry! Hurry up! --I've got to pop in on Kimura, Kanzaki, Chiba, Hayami, and Hara
--Hurry, hurry! Hurry up! --all within the next four minutes!
Show them what you've got!
Up, up, and awaaay!
I'll never be a teacher like that.
The last career counseling session is at the end of February,
after all our entrance exams.
I have until then to make up my mind.
For now, I'll focus on the target before me!
"Assassination Classroom, Final Season" "by Kaede Kayano"
Why so antsy, Okajima?
Oh, uh, nothing.
"Tentacle" Oh, uh, nothing.
Valentine chocolates? For shame.
N-No, it's nothing like that!
Gross.
Rude much? You only give out binge-bought cheapo stuff!
I-I beg your pardon?!
What do we have here?
And who are those for, hmm?
Wh-What do you mean? It's just a formality!
Th-They could be for anybody!
Oh? Here I was sure you were giving them to this guy here.
--Forgive me! Please forgive me! --Hiding her true feelings with those ace acting skills...
--Forgive me! Please forgive me! --Not even Koro Sensei has tweaked to Kayano's deal.
Ever since that kiss,
she's not hiding her feelings for Nagisa-- she's practically cowering in them.
If we put these two together...
...we can tease two birds with one stone.
We've got us a new toy!
He doesn't have a great self-image.
Can't imagine being liked by the opposite sex.
That's why he's afraid-- he thinks he did something bad to you.
If you don't set him straight, he may never understand.
I mean...
I've acted love tons of times and studied it and stuff,
but I have no real-life experience liking a classmate!
Like, what expression should I make when I give him the chocolates?
Well, let's do some recon.
Just a little covert training.
"Sugino - Kanzaki"
Yesss! Yesss!
--I'm glad you're so happy. --Yesss... Yesss...
Receiver Sugino is insanely overjoyed,
but giver Kanzaki is calm.
Probably just a formality.
His "insanely overjoyed" is insanely frightening.
"Chiba - Hayami"
Wow. High accuracy, even when firing chocolate bits.
Here's the rest, as promised.
Thanks.
Respect. Let's keep it up.
Yep.
Their firing distance is one of a kind, all right.
I can't imitate that... and I can't tell if she means it.
"Terasaka's Gang"
I put real care into making these.
"Checklist" And they come with a love letter. I'll be waiting for your answer.
"Checklist" "Care"? You put a curse into these, you mean!
Guess she got the drop on me.
Okuda made me a batch that I'd planned
"Bonus Case" to put in Terasaka's shoe cubby.
"Bonus Case" Cyanidation complete!
"Bonus Case" Some folks secretly think chocolates are for something else!
"Isogai - Kataoka"
"Commercial Chocolate" "Super Value Set" Whoa!
All this--for me? Are you sure?
Share them with your brother and sister.
It's bulk commercial stuff from an ultra-cheap supermarket.
Took me four hours by bike there and back.
Before the entrance exams? Are you gonna be okay?
No sweat. Me and my first choice, we've still got a day before the exams.
Huh?
I'm going to a state school. The same one as you.
You are? I hope we both get in.
Yeah.
See?
Everyone has their own whys and hows for this.
Shouldn't you just say what you want to say in your own way?
Yeah. Thanks, you two.
Now, the problem here...
--...is how infuriating it is to be watched by that gossipy octopus.
--A couple, a couple! Let the good times roll! --...is how infuriating it is to be watched by that gossipy octopus.
Leave that to me.
Kayano, did you bring the you-know-what?
Huh? Oh, uh-huh.
That ought to lock down Koro Sensei for us.
Go throw yourself into giving away that chocolate.
Uh-huh...
Where's my chocolate?! I must have something!
Someone musta hid it on the mountain!
Go look, Nagisa! I refuse to end this day empty-handed!
Kayano?
What's wrong?
You're being so quiet.
Oh, man--my heart's thumping so hard I can't think!
How should I look? What should I say, when I give him this?
H-Hey, uh, Nagisa...
Have you figured out your future plans?
Well, I kind of have an idea of what I want to be,
but right now I'm not sure at all that I can be it.
A teacher, probably.
I've seen him look admiringly at Koro Sensei,
not as a super-creature or an assassin, but as a teacher.
I bet he'll give his answer at the month-end career counseling.
Huh?
That's Koro Sensei up in that tree.
He's engrossed in something or other.
Out of range...
Guess he's not about to make himself a sitting duck.
Oh, that's right...
I've come to like that face of Nagisa's, looking straight ahead.
The reason I didn't become completely empty
after losing my family and my revenge
was because Nagisa killed me.
Because the honest bloodlust of this killer I faced
kindly filled the holes in my heart.
So with what face, what words do I give him this?
Nagisa?
Thank you for staying by my side this whole year.
Here!
For me?
Yep!
--B-But, I mean, I'm the one who should be thanking you. --Okay, mission accomplished! Well done!
See you tomorrow! Hope you get into that school!
Uh, yeah...
Right now, Nagisa is looking straight ahead.
I can't be next to him, distracting him.
But I do want to do something to thank him,
so I'll use my sharpest blade--my acting--
to cheer him on with my very best smile.
To kill yourself for someone else at the moment of truth...
That part of her is a lot like Ms. Yukimura.
Ah, how noble.
No way can I poach from someone so admirable.
Say what?
Nothing.
Never mind that--
What, exactly, has Koro Sensei so enthralled?
Oh, I got Kayano to leave some chocolates, a certain photo, and a note
in an obvious spot...
"To Koro Sensei" "From my sister" in an obvious spot...
"To Koro Sensei" "From my sister" A photo?
"To Koro Sensei" "From my sister" If I'd known it would work so well,
"To Koro Sensei" "From my sister" I'd've used it in an assassination.
A top-class dinner on Valentine's Day...
I should have expected such thoughtfulness from you.
They say men give back threefold on White Day next month.
I'll accept nothing less than triple both length and girth,
Karasuma.
--I'm out. --Huh? Hey! Wait! Wait! Stay and eat!
Regular-sized is just fine!
I'll even make do with fun-sized!
Such low-class company for such a high-class place.
Here--from Hinano.
She asked me to give it to you. You're not at school much lately.
Once I see an opening, he's mine!
...she said.
She's reading too much into us. We're not even dating.
And the others?
There were more chocolates than I'd thought, both obligatory and heartfelt.
Maybe some of them thought it might turn out to be
their last Valentine's Day on Earth.
And? What about you?
How's the assassination going?
"The probability's down to one percent! Hooray!"
Like it'll end there.
So that's why she found a private room at a trustworthy spot...
Yes. I was planning to talk to you about it.
My main job now is solely to provide guidance to the E Class,
so they won't put me fully in the loop until the eleventh hour.
But there's no doubt that the powers that be
are moving forward with a tremendous assassination project.
To see it again like this--it's just amazing.
Can this really kill him?
With this weapon, it's not a matter of whether it can.
What's crucial is just how smooth and how smart it'll do the job.
A virtuous mind and a brutally gorgeous figure...
Not very impressive, seeing one of our teachers
laid so low by a single swimsuit snapshot.
Mr. Principal, sir! Where'd you come from?!
There are problems with your work attitude.
I'll be cutting your salary this month.
Have mercy!
Ms. Yukimura... is it?
Pity we had to lose such talent.
She had an inexhaustible vitality and such passion for teaching.
Given a few more years, she would have been an outstanding teacher.
Yes.
By the way, I hear there's a chance your life may be saved.
If so, would you care to follow in her footsteps
and teach here next year as well?
Your forced expression and that body of yours
are well-suited to teaching at this satellite campus.
I'm flattered. For you, who judges a teacher purely on aptitude
without being led astray by sentiment or one's past,
to try persuading me to stay... It's the best report card I could want.
"Roll Book"
But I've decided this will be my last year at the blackboard.
And after that?
Who knows? Perhaps I'll sail around the world.
Having you for a rival made this school truly enjoyable for me.
I really must thank you again.
That's too bad...
You turned me down before I could bribe you.
Now that I think about it... I rule this school from the top,
while you and Ms. Yukimura support your students from the bottom.
That might just be my educational ideal.
By the way, how's your son?
Ah, he's putting together a ruling hierarchy for high school.
At this rate, he'll have the whole place under his thumb within the year.
Truly a remarkable young man.
Oh, he's not quite there yet.
There's no end to the ways in which he's still lacking.
You know, Karasuma,
I think it might not be so bad if the world were destroyed.
For the kids, anyway.
If they can't kill him, they'll be left with these nagging feelings
of frustration and loss.
Worse, if their teacher were killed in some huge assassination
that's out of their league and beyond their control...
...or if they were made to watch their mentor's cruel and painful death
at the hands of some conflicted assassin...
It's scary: frustration, powerlessness, trauma.
No matter what happens, it's bound to warp those kids' futures.
I don't want to see those blameless brats
turn into adults with twisted hearts.
Irina?
Once this job is over, quit.
You're not cut out to be an assassin.
What?
Your emotions run too deep.
They've grown fatally deep this past year.
If you feel such emotion for your students,
it'll only make any future jobs that much harder.
A square like you can blow it off easily enough,
this life I've desperately built for myself...
I've killed a lot, you know.
There's no going back to a place in the sun--
not with these ten sin-stained years behind me.
Every experience is a tool to clear your path.
It was none other than those students who taught me that.
Whether you worry or not,
no matter what difficulty they may face,
the experience they've gained through assassination
will nourish them as they find their own answers.
Irina, come work for us.
I'm sure your experience will be put to good use in peacetime, too.
The Intelligence Department won't ask about your past.
There, you can save more people than you've killed,
and pray for your victims at the shrine every morning.
That's enough.
Shrine...?
But I'm Christian.
And I have no family in Japan...
Don't you get it? There aren't any churches near my house.
Whaaat?!
Wait, Karasuma--what are you saying?
Just what I said.
B-B-But a man and a woman living under one roof is so...
...immoral!
Live alone, then.
No! I'll do it! I'm coming! Wait up! Karasuma!
The day I met you felt so far away No! I'll do it! I'm coming! Wait up! Karasuma!
The day I met you felt so far away
The memories I've arranged little by little keep me warm
A small room, hearts connecting: you taught me gently
Once this season comes for me, I won't be able
To search out your figure anymore
I'll never forget
Until the day I can see you again
