    The math exam's final problem.
[00:11] ---
    "with an atom at each vertex and at each cube's center."
    Half of our grade couldn't even make it this far.
[00:12] ---
    "Most alkaline metals, including Na and K,"
    Half of our grade couldn't even make it this far.
[00:14] ---
    "are body-centered cubic units."
    Half of our grade couldn't even make it this far.
[00:15] ---
    "are body-centered cubic units."
    The other half arrived in the nick of time,
[00:16] ---
    "Focusing on atom A[0] in a body-centered cubic unit,"
    The other half arrived in the nick of time,
[00:17] ---
    "of all the points within the space,"
    The other half arrived in the nick of time,
[00:19] ---
    "the domain D[0] consists of the set of points closer to A[0]"
    already lacking the energy needed to solve it all the way.
[00:21] ---
    "than to any other atom. Find the volume of D[0]."
    already lacking the energy needed to solve it all the way.
[00:23] ---
    The only ones capable of getting
    full marks in the time remaining...
[00:35] ---
    ...were these two.
[00:51] ---
    You're all I think about
[00:54] ---
    Starting not to see anything else
[00:57] ---
    I'll win your heart for sure--I swear
[01:02] ---
    Me, not cool? Oh, that old tale
[01:05] ---
    I've spared no effort since then
[01:07] ---
    Should be over my problems by now
[01:11] ---
    I'm brimming with confidence: I can do it
[01:15] ---
    And just when I get warmed up
[01:18] ---
    Yeah, I get knocked down like this every time
[01:23] ---
    Your scathing, serious voice cuts me
[01:29] ---
    Thousands, tens of thousands
    of times I've given form to my feelings

[01:34] ---
    Driven them in,
    thrown them in--but all you do is run

[01:40] ---
    Question, question: what
[01:42] ---
    Question, question: on earth
[01:45] ---
    Question, question: did I
[01:48] ---
    Ever know about you anyway?
[01:51] ---
    Question, question: why
[01:53] ---
    Question, question: is it
[01:56] ---
    Question, question: you are
[01:59] ---
    So close and yet so far away?
[02:08] ---
    "12th Period: Think Outside the Box Time"
    "by Manami Okuda"
[02:17] ---
    What was it Nagisa always used to say?
[02:22] ---
    Aw... How can two fellow humans
    have such a gap between them?
[02:28] ---
    I guess you've got
    different talents, huh, Karma.
[02:32] ---
    Easy for you to say...
[02:34] ---
    If you ask me, I'm not sure
    which of us is the real genius here.
[02:39] ---
    What we call "talent" is
    the part of us that others can't see.
[02:45] ---
    Like Sugino,
    who can slide right in with people.
[02:50] ---
    Like Okuda, who can totally
    lose herself in something she loves.
[02:55] ---
    Like Terasaka, who can act
    without giving it a single thought.
[03:00] ---
    "My Plan (Secret)"
    From where I stand, those are all talents.
[03:03] ---
    Everyone has this
    talented domain that I can't see,
[03:08] ---
    so in that sense, we're all the same.
[03:12] ---
    The issue here... is whether I can
    see this problem with my own talent.
[03:19] ---
    Oh, man--I *definitely
    *won't have enough time for this.
[03:26] ---
    Atoms, body-centered cubic units...
[03:30] ---
    I can't let these
    unnecessary details throw me off.
[03:33] ---
    Once I get down to the essentials, it's simple:
[03:35] ---
    "the domain D[0] consists of the set of points closer to A[0]
    than to any other atom. Find the volume of D[0]."
[03:38] ---
    Find the volume of your own domain
[03:41] ---
    here in this box, surrounded by enemies.
[03:54] ---
    When both sides are evenly matched,
[03:57] ---
    their attacks meet in the middle.
[04:00] ---
    So from there inward is my domain!
[04:10] ---
    Gotcha. You won't be sneaking
    into my domain anytime soon.
[04:16] ---
    Eight enemies surround
    the inside of this cube.
[04:20] ---
    So if I find the volume of
    the eight areas I've sealed off
[04:24] ---
    and subtract it from the cube, I'm left with...
[04:27] ---
    A[0]--my domain!
[04:34] ---
    Once I lock down this space,
    I'll have the correct answer!
[04:42] ---
    Ruling over this space:
    the perfect theme for me!
[04:50] ---
    A different kind of ruler--not like my father.
[04:54] ---
    Right now, he's obsessed with proving that
[04:57] ---
    his own "rational education" is correct.
[05:01] ---
    It may break a person,
    but it will not educate them.
[05:05] ---
    I'll set him straight and
    give him a piece of my mind!
[05:10] ---
    To take control--
[05:12] ---
    That is my duty as a son!
[05:17] ---
    There it is!
[05:18] ---
    The volume of one of the
    sealed-off areas is an aggregate
[05:21] ---
    of one hexagonal
    and three triangular pyramids!
[05:35] ---
    "multiple cubes a having sides
    1 arranged periodically"
[05:37] ---
    Hang on... This doesn't call
    for any tough math at all!
[05:44] ---
    It's separated out into this one little cube,
[05:47] ---
    but if this is an atomic crystal,
[05:51] ---
    there'll be more of the same
    structure outside this cube, too.
[05:56] ---
    Which means...
[05:58] ---
    ...the world doesn't end here!
[06:02] ---
    And from where I stand,
    everyone has their own talent
[06:08] ---
    and their own domain,
[06:10] ---
    so everyone's the same...
[06:14] ---
    All I could see from inside the box
    was mere fragments of everyone.
[06:20] ---
    Just as I claim my own domain,
    everyone else will claim theirs.
[06:27] ---
    We're all the same size,
    the same distance apart.
[06:32] ---
    If we're all cut from the same box,
[06:35] ---
    those eight contiguous boxes
    can be broken up
[06:37] ---
    into the same proportion,
[06:39] ---
    so each person's fragment
    accounts for one-eighth.
[06:44] ---
    The box holds a whole me
[06:47] ---
    and one-eighth each
    from eight people's fragments.
[06:52] ---
    In other words, inside this cube
[06:55] ---
    the ratio of me to the
    other eight has got to be 1 to 1.
[07:00] ---
    And if it's 1 to 1 inside the box,
[07:03] ---
    the volume of the domain
    I can claim is up to half the cube!
[07:13] ---
    Well, geez... This is primary-school stuff!
[07:27] ---
    No need for drawn-out
    calculations or complex diagrams.
[07:33] ---
    If you just tweak to the fact that
    there's a world outside yourself...
[07:38] ---
    "Final Problem"
    "Karma Akabane: 20/20 points"
[07:41] ---
    Time's up!
[07:44] ---
    Asano... the test is over.
[07:47] ---
    "(cube's volume) - 8"
[07:49] ---
    One more line...
[07:52] ---
    Dammit--and I knew the answer, too!
[07:55] ---
    "Final Problem"
    "Gakushu Asano: 17/20 points"
[07:58] ---
    And so the surging wave of our
    end-of-term exams receded at last.
[08:06] ---
    Now then, class,
[08:08] ---
    I'll be returning your compiled exam papers.
[08:11] ---
    Did your second blades
    manage to reach their targets?
[08:19] ---
    "Tentacle"
[08:21] ---
    No grumbling about
    a point here or there, now.
[08:25] ---
    Were your scores this time
[08:27] ---
    good enough to get you
    into the top fifty overall?
[08:31] ---
    The main campus will be posting
    the overall ranks right about now,
[08:36] ---
    so let's start with
    ranks here in the E Class, too.
[08:40] ---
    "Tentacle"
[08:43] ---
    "Second End-of-Term Exam: Top 50"
[08:50] ---
    "Second End-of-Term Exam: Top 50"
[08:53] ---
    I-I--
[08:55] ---
    "44: Sosuke Sugaya" "46: Ryoma Terasaka"
[08:56] ---
    "44: Sosuke Sugaya" "46: Ryoma Terasaka"
    I'm 46th?!
[08:58] ---
    Isn't Terasaka dead last in the E Class?
[09:01] ---
    If Terasaka came in 46th...
[09:04] ---
    ...then that means...
[09:07] ---
    We did it!
[09:09] ---
    "5: Kotaro Takebayashi" "6: Meg Kataoka"
    We did it!
[09:10] ---
    "7: Yukiko Kanzaki" "8: Ren Sakakibara"
    We pulled down the Big Five in the battle for top spot, too--
[09:11] ---
    "5: Kotaro Takebayashi" "6: Meg Kataoka"
    We pulled down the Big Five in the battle for top spot, too--
[09:12] ---
    "5: Kotaro Takebayashi" "6: Meg Kataoka"
    practically a perfect win!
[09:13] ---
    "3: Rio Nakamura" "4: Yuma Isogai"
    practically a perfect win!
[09:14] ---
    "3: Rio Nakamura" "4: Yuma Isogai"
    And first place is Karma for once!
[09:14] ---
    "1: Karma Akabane" "2: Gakushu Asano"
    And first place is Karma for once!
[09:15] ---
    And first place is Karma for once!
[09:18] ---
    How does it feel, Karma,
    to go after that first-place rank
[09:20] ---
    on such a high-level battleground... and win?
[09:23] ---
    Um, whatever, I guess.
[09:27] ---
    It seems your battle against
    the perfection-boasting Asano
[09:30] ---
    came down to that final math problem.
[09:34] ---
    About that... I'm not sure exactly why,
[09:38] ---
    but I don't think I could've solved it
    if I hadn't spent this year with you all.
[09:43] ---
    That's the kind of problem it was.
[09:45] ---
    It sure was a slog getting to
    this point, though, huh?
[09:48] ---
    Our most fervent wish--after a
    successful assassination, anyway!
[09:51] ---
    We really did beat the A Class!
[09:54] ---
    We can go to our first-pick schools!
[09:56] ---
    Girls will be throwing themselves at us!
[09:58] ---
    Go, us!
[09:59] ---
    Yay! Girls everywhere!
[10:02] ---
    Feels like a final episode to me.
[10:03] ---
    Hey! It can't end yet!
[10:07] ---
    You feeling okay, Takebayashi?
[10:09] ---
    Yeah, it's just...
[10:10] ---
    So much happened since
    I dropped down to the E Class,
[10:14] ---
    but I'm glad I stayed.
[10:16] ---
    Aw, why so glum, chum?
[10:18] ---
    --'Sweird comin' from you! Ha ha ha!
    --Yeah, leave the ugly mugs to Terasaka.
[10:21] ---
    Say what?!
[10:22] ---
    Terasaka, you're choking him!
[10:24] ---
    "Tentacle"
    Terasaka, you're choking him!
[10:24] ---
    "Tentacle"
    Well?
[10:26] ---
    "Tentacle"
    I think I can get into my dream school with this.
[10:29] ---
    "Tentacle"
    For architecture, was it?
[10:31] ---
    Yeah. That's why I want a
    high school that's big on the sciences.
[10:36] ---
    Hmm.
[10:37] ---
    Boy, those A-Class twerps must be
    white as sheets right about now!
[10:42] ---
    I bet they never thought they'd lose to us!
[10:45] ---
    For their part, the A Class did well
    on the first half of the exams.
[10:50] ---
    But it seems more and more
    students got hung up
[10:53] ---
    on the tougher problems
    in the second batch of subjects.
[10:57] ---
    Well, sure. You can't keep
    your bloodlust going for that long.
[11:02] ---
    Even with daily assassination training,
[11:04] ---
    it's rough staying in that
    frame of mind for a whole day.
[11:08] ---
    If you want to dope with bloodlust,
    cramming won't work.
[11:13] ---
    You have to nurture it
    slowly but surely, over time.
[11:17] ---
    How? To lose--after all we went through?
[11:21] ---
    With your studying, you couldn't win.
[11:24] ---
    That's all it comes down to...
[11:26] ---
    ...although the scores I earned
    are nothing to brag about, either.
[11:31] ---
    I'll make good use of this frustration,
    that's for damn sure.
[11:35] ---
    Even in high school, I'll keep winning,
[11:37] ---
    and looking for ways to let you win as well.
[11:41] ---
    So, please...
[11:44] ---
    ...lend me your support in turn.
[11:46] ---
    Asano...
[11:47] ---
    Asano...
[11:50] ---
    Can you still say that,
[11:52] ---
    now that the battle on which
    you bet your life is over?
[11:58] ---
    Principal Asano, sir!
[12:01] ---
    Life is always a great unknown.
[12:04] ---
    Will losing a battle
    mean losing your life as well?
[12:08] ---
    You never know until the battle's over.
[12:12] ---
    That's why you have all
    needed to keep on winning.
[12:16] ---
    I have an obligation to teach you as much.
[12:20] ---
    I'll get your brains better
    by graduation time, all right.
[12:24] ---
    Principal Asano?
[12:26] ---
    It's clear to us now.
[12:29] ---
    With these current methods,
    we can't beat the E Class.
[12:35] ---
    The E Class and Asano here--
    both grew stronger through defeat.
[12:39] ---
    Our strength is no match for
    the flexible strength they have.
[12:44] ---
    We apologize for falling short of our goal.
[12:48] ---
    If you wish, you may
    send us down to the E Class.
[12:53] ---
    I have the feeling we can learn
    and grow more there.
[12:59] ---
    You have your answer, sir.
[13:04] ---
    Asano!
[13:07] ---
    Asano!
[13:11] ---
    That look on your face--
    like you're glitching out.
[13:14] ---
    I might just be seeing the
    fatherly side of you at last.
[13:21] ---
    --I'm fine.
    --If you'll excuse us, sir.
[13:34] ---
    "Assassination Classroom, Second Season"
    "by Karma Akabane"
[13:41] ---
    All right, students--
[13:42] ---
    You've formally received your
    qualifications to move out of the E Class.
[13:47] ---
    So is anyone looking to leave this mountain?
[13:50] ---
    Of course not!
[13:51] ---
    We found our second blades--
    This is when it gets serious!
[13:56] ---
    What other environment
    is this suited to an assassination?
[14:02] ---
    Gluttons for punishment, eh?
[14:04] ---
    Then for your reward this time,
    I'll tell you my weakn--
[14:16] ---
    The school building!
[14:18] ---
    Prepare to vacate the premises.
[14:20] ---
    Principal Asano!
[14:22] ---
    The Board made the decision this morning:
[14:25] ---
    We're tearing down
    this old campus building today.
[14:28] ---
    I'll have you move to the
    new campus of our affiliate school
[14:32] ---
    opening next school year.
[14:34] ---
    Until graduation, you will help us
    performance-test the building.
[14:38] ---
    A new campus?!
[14:40] ---
    With a surveillance system
    and an anti-escape system
[14:43] ---
    drawn from correctional facilities,
[14:45] ---
    they can study in an environment
    akin to a more civilized prison.
[14:49] ---
    The new E Class: the culmination
    of my educational theories.
[14:54] ---
    B-But moving us now?
[14:56] ---
    No way! We wanna graduate
    from this campus!
[15:01] ---
    You'll carry out your educational vision
    to the very end, won't you.
[15:04] ---
    Indeed.
[15:05] ---
    But make no mistake:
    You are no longer useful to my education.
[15:11] ---
    And this...
[15:13] ---
    This is where I kill you.
[15:14] ---
    "Notice of Dismissal"
    This is where I kill you.
[15:17] ---
    K-Koro Sensei's walking papers?!
[15:20] ---
    He actually went there:
    He played his forbidden ace in the hole!
[15:24] ---
    "Koro-Labor Union"
[15:24] ---
    "Koro-Labor Union" "Koro Sensei's Weak Point #31: Downsizing"
[15:25] ---
    "Koro-Labor Union" "Koro Sensei's Weak Point #31: Downsizing"
    Th-That's wrongful dismissal!
[15:26] ---
    It works hilariously well on this octopus.
[15:30] ---
    Can a super-creature even stage a protest?
[15:33] ---
    And so you won't jump to any conclusions,
[15:35] ---
    this is nothing but a tool to control my target.
[15:39] ---
    I have come, Koro Sensei,
[15:42] ---
    "Stop the Firings!" "And the salary's low, too!"
    I have come, Koro Sensei,
[15:42] ---
    "Stop the Firings!" "And the salary's low, too!"
    to kill you once and for all.
[15:46] ---
    You are... no longer necessary
    for my education, you see.
[15:51] ---
    Are you serious?
[15:52] ---
    I know you're superhuman and all,
[15:55] ---
    but our octopus won't go down
    quite as easily as you think.
[16:00] ---
    Hold off the demolition for now.
    I have some work to do inside.
[16:10] ---
    Where'd that notice of dismissal come from?
[16:12] ---
    What could Principal Asano be thinking?
[16:16] ---
    Now, then, Koro Sensei...
[16:18] ---
    If you don't want to be fired,
[16:21] ---
    if you want to protect this classroom,
[16:24] ---
    I'll have you join me in a little gamble.
[16:27] ---
    A gamble?
[16:29] ---
    I've prepared five subjects' worth of
    test questions and five hand grenades.
[16:34] ---
    Four of them are anti-Sensei grenades;
    one works on humans.
[16:39] ---
    They're the real deal.
[16:42] ---
    They are identical in appearance and smell,
[16:44] ---
    and made such that, once their pins are pulled,
[16:47] ---
    they'll explode the moment their handles rise.
[16:50] ---
    I've pulled their pins
[16:52] ---
    and placed them carefully between
    random pages in the test books,
[16:55] ---
    handles in place.
[16:57] ---
    You will open the book and
    solve the problem at the top right.
[17:02] ---
    As soon as he opens it,
    the handle will pop up and--
[17:05] ---
    Yes--he'll almost certainly
    be hit with an explosion.
[17:09] ---
    But he can't move an inch
    until he solves that problem.
[17:13] ---
    You'll handle the first four books,
    while I'll take the last one.
[17:21] ---
    If you manage to kill me
    or force me to withdraw,
[17:25] ---
    I will permit you
    and the E Class to remain here.
[17:29] ---
    Let's see... Ah, Terasaka.
[17:33] ---
    Use a formula to find
    Koro Sensei's odds of winning.
[17:38] ---
    An anti-Sensei grenade explosion
    won't kill you...
[17:43] ---
    "1st Book"
[17:43] ---
    "1st Book"
    To do that, we'd need to save the real grenade till the end.
[17:45] ---
    "2nd Book"
    To do that, we'd need to save the real grenade till the end.
[17:46] ---
    "3rd Book"
    To do that, we'd need to save the real grenade till the end.
[17:47] ---
    "4th Book"
    To do that, we'd need to save the real grenade till the end.
[17:48] ---
    "5th Book"
    To do that, we'd need to save the real grenade till the end.
[17:49] ---
    4/5 times 3/4 times 2/3 times
    1/2 equals 1/5. Twenty percent.
[17:58] ---
    Correct!
[17:59] ---
    But the octopus has to take
    four deadly grenades in a row,
[18:04] ---
    and you can just safely
    tap out soon as it gets ugly.
[18:07] ---
    This is ridiculously unfair!
[18:10] ---
    Terasaka...
[18:12] ---
    You'll find that the world
    is just one injustice after another.
[18:16] ---
    Especially between the weak and the strong.
[18:19] ---
    That's why I've taught you
    to be the strong ones.
[18:24] ---
    So will you give it a try?
[18:27] ---
    It's also a test of how serious you are
    about your chosen profession.
[18:32] ---
    If I were you, I'd jump right in.
[18:38] ---
    Of course. Let's do it.
[18:42] ---
    He threatens dismissal and concocts a gamble
[18:42] ---
    "Tentacle"
    He threatens dismissal and concocts a gamble
[18:44] ---
    "Tentacle"
    that's clearly in his favor.
[18:47] ---
    "Tentacle"
    But there's no backing down.
[18:50] ---
    Mathematically, it has better odds
    than any of our other attempts.
[18:56] ---
    To be one of the strong--
    that's the mightiest blade.
[18:59] ---
    Truly, the principal's assassination!
[19:02] ---
    Open and solve, then close--
    do it all at once and it won't explode.
[19:07] ---
    With your speed, it may even be easy.
[19:11] ---
    Y-Yes, of co--of course!
[19:13] ---
    "Geometry II"
[19:32] ---
    Planar calculations!
[19:33] ---
    Um, well, that's an easy one--
    it's, you know, that thing,
[19:37] ---
    where you borrow from the tens
    to get 3 with 4 left over,
[19:40] ---
    or, say, about 3 or so--
[19:46] ---
    Just like with that metal ring puzzle,
[19:48] ---
    I know how your reaction-and thinking
    speed drop when you're flustered.
[19:52] ---
    You can't get past this trap.
[19:56] ---
    Koro Sensei...
[19:58] ---
    First one is a hit. Make it through
    three more and you win.
[20:03] ---
    "Notice of Dismissal"
    Now solve the next, before you recover.
[20:08] ---
    You're kiddin' me!
    He can't take three more of those!
[20:11] ---
    Is he really gonna get taken down
    by such a simple setup?
[20:15] ---
    The weak can only kill
    the strong through assassination,
[20:19] ---
    but the strong can kill the weak
    whenever and however they like.
[20:24] ---
    I will pepper the nation
    with mechanisms to teach this truth.
[20:29] ---
    With my money from the Ministry of Defense
    and the bounty from killing you,
[20:33] ---
    I can build my affiliate schools
    all over the country.
[20:36] ---
    It's always about education with him.
[20:39] ---
    "Training"
    "Social Studies" "History"
[20:42] ---
    Now, Koro Sensei...
[20:45] ---
    ...be the cornerstone of my philosophy.
[21:02] ---
    The moon that swims in the night sky
[21:07] ---
    If you stretch out your hand, you can reach it
[21:13] ---
    I went to touch it: it was warm
[21:19] ---
    And slowly drew me in
[21:24] ---
    The multiplying footsteps,
    the view from my window:

[21:35] ---
    As I drifted along, expressionless
[21:41] ---
    They spilled out of my hands
[21:45] ---
    It was rocking, swaying--I never knew
[21:52] ---
    Until I touched it with my own hands
[21:57] ---
    I'll gather up
    and go through all of the things

[22:03] ---
    Scattered beneath the waning moon
[22:22] ---
    Surprise!
[22:22] ---
    "Tell Us, Kunudon!"
    Surprise!
[22:23] ---
    "Tell Us, Kunudon!"
    Tell us, Kunudon!
[22:26] ---
    Phew! That school festival
    was a real white-knuckler,
[22:29] ---
    but it looks like the E Class
    is finally down for the count!
[22:32] ---
    Show's over!
[22:37] ---
    Nah-nah! Riffraff! Garbage!
[22:39] ---
    Serves you right!
[22:44] ---
    Oh!
[22:45] ---
    Mr. Principal, sir, what brings you here?
[22:50] ---
    "Notice of Dismissal: Kunudon"
[22:50] ---
    "Notice of Dismissal: Kunudon"
    Notice of dismissal!
[22:52] ---
    I'm... going to the E Class?!
[22:55] ---
    Reemployment refugee! Yay!
