[00:08] ---
    Don't look away!\n
[00:10] ---
    Predict your target's moves!\n
[00:12] ---
    If you all do that, you'll block off\nevery last one of his escape routes!\n
[00:16] ---
    We're going on our fourth month of training,\n
[00:19] ---
    and more and more students\nare showing promise.\n
[00:22] ---
    Yuma Isogai and Hiroto Maehara.\n
[00:25] ---
    They've got great reflexes,\n
[00:27] ---
    and when they work as a pair,\ntheir knives hit the mark more often now.\n
[00:32] ---
    Karma Akabane.\n
[00:33] ---
    He seems like the evasive,\nmeandering type at first glance,\n
[00:36] ---
    but there's great mischief in those eyes.\n
[00:41] ---
    Tch!\n
[00:42] ---
    And the girls:\n
[00:43] ---
    Hinata Okano's unpredictable movement\nborn of her gymnastics background,\n
[00:47] ---
    and Meg Kataoka, with a reach\nand momentum to rival the boys'.\n
[00:51] ---
    These traits make them stand out as attackers.\n
[00:54] ---
    And Koro Sensei, the very\nmodel of an ideal teacher.\n
[00:58] ---
    To kill such a man of character\nwould be unthinkable!\n
[01:00] ---
    Don't be making up thoughts for me.\n
[01:02] ---
    Get lost, target!\n
[01:05] ---
    Although no other students\nhave distinguished themselves,\n
[01:08] ---
    overall their talent has come quite a long way.\n
[01:19] ---
    Ow...\n
[01:22] ---
    Sorry!\n
[01:23] ---
    Put a little too much oomph into my block there.\n
[01:25] ---
    Oh, I-I'm fine.\n
[01:27] ---
    Dummy! You gotta keep an eye on him!\n
[01:31] ---
    Nagisa Shiota...\n
[01:34] ---
    The strange presence I just felt--\nwas that my imagination?\n
[01:44] ---
    Man, I just can't hit him!\n
[01:46] ---
    Mr. Karasuma has, like, zero chinks.\n
[01:49] ---
    Sir! Come out for snacks with us after class!\n
[01:52] ---
    I appreciate the invite,\nbut I still have work to do.\n
[01:57] ---
    No chinks in his private life, either.\n
[01:59] ---
    It's more like there's a wall\nbetween him and us,\n
[02:02] ---
    like he's keeping his distance.\n
[02:04] ---
    He takes good care of us and all,\n
[02:08] ---
    but is that only because he has to?
[02:13] ---
    Yo, Karasuma!\n
[02:16] ---
    Takaoka!\n
[02:20] ---
    A new teacher?\n
[02:22] ---
    Hey! I'm Akira Takaoka, \n
[02:24] ---
    "Ministry of Defense Special Forces" "Akira Takaoka"\nand I'll be assisting Karasuma as of today!\n
[02:28] ---
    "Ministry of Defense Special Forces" "Akira Takaoka"\nNice to meet you, E Class!\n
[02:32] ---
    *Stand up, bow, lock on! *
[02:34] ---
    *Stand up, bow, lock on! Oh, yeah *
[02:40] ---
    *Sensei! Target on *
[02:43] ---
    *The more the potential, the bigger the hassle *
[02:48] ---
    *Our dropout mentality goes beyond the extraordinary *
[02:53] ---
    *We looked like we were nodding off, hidden knives in hand *

    *Stand up, bow, lock on! *
[03:03] ---
    *Let it go and someone's sure to take care of it *
[03:09] ---
    *We thought it was someone else's problem... and yet *
[03:17] ---
    *Mr. Teacher, tell us *
[03:19] ---
    *Will we, still incomplete *
[03:22] ---
    *Be able to shoot through *
[03:25] ---
    *The invincible target that's you? *
[03:27] ---
    *As long as we keep trying, the odds are 50/50 *
[03:33] ---
    *Mr. Teacher, look at us *
[03:35] ---
    *Lost in so many ways *
[03:38] ---
    *For you more than anyone else *

[04:06] ---
    What's all this?\n
[04:08] ---
    Cake!\n
[04:09] ---
    And éclairs from Le Hermès!\n
[04:12] ---
    Are you sure? They look so pricey...\n
[04:14] ---
    Go on, eat up! I emptied out my\nwallet for this, so don't hold back!\n
[04:19] ---
    You sure know your brand-name sweets.\n
[04:22] ---
    Honestly, when it comes to me and sugar,\n
[04:24] ---
    it's love!\n
[04:25] ---
    So cute for such a big guy...\n
[04:27] ---
    So will you be taking over phys ed tomorrow?\n
[04:30] ---
    Yep! Orders from headquarters.\nGotta lessen Karasuma's load, so--\n
[04:35] ---
    Caaake...\n
[04:36] ---
    Oh, you must be Koro Sensei! Eat, eat!\n
[04:41] ---
    We'll still end up killing you.\n
[04:44] ---
    For colleagues, you and Mr. Karasuma\nare like night and day.\n
[04:48] ---
    You're like a neighborhood dad!\n
[04:51] ---
    Dad! I like that!\n
[04:53] ---
    We're in the same classroom,\nso that makes us family, right?\n
[05:05] ---
    "The Next Day"\n
[05:06] ---
    "The Next Day"\nGreat--the gang's all here!\n
[05:09] ---
    Now, things could start getting a little tough,\n
[05:11] ---
    but I'll have more delicious treats\nfor you when it's all over!\n
[05:14] ---
    And you're not just saying that because you want to eat them?
[05:17] ---
    Gotta keep my figure!\n
[05:25] ---
    And you're fine with this?\nHe comes across as awfully forced.\n
[05:30] ---
    And Karma's cutting his class entirely.\n
[05:33] ---
    We were in the airborne brigade together.\n
[05:36] ---
    I understand he's a far\nbetter instructor than I.\n
[05:42] ---
    He's got a good grip on his students' hearts.\n
[05:45] ---
    That ought to go far in training.\n
[05:48] ---
    Maybe I was going about this the wrong way.\n
[05:51] ---
    Rather than drawing a line and\nconnecting to them as a professional,\n
[05:54] ---
    perhaps his method of relating\nto them like family would...\n
[06:06] ---
    Now, then!\n
[06:07] ---
    Along with your new training regimen\n
[06:09] ---
    "Training"\ncomes a new schedule!\n
[06:13] ---
    "Training"\nNo way!\n
[06:15] ---
    "Training"\nTen periods?\n
[06:16] ---
    "Training"\nTraining until 9 at night?\n
[06:19] ---
    But of course! Following this curriculum\n
[06:23] ---
    will boost your abilities by leaps and bounds.\n
[06:25] ---
    --Let's get to work!\n--Hey, wait a minute! This is impossible!\n
[06:29] ---
    With so little time for learning,\nour grades'll plummet!\n
[06:32] ---
    And no free time, either? We can't do this!\n
[06:39] ---
    "We can't," nothing. You will.
[06:42] ---
    It's like I said: we're a family,\nand I'm the dad.\n
[06:46] ---
    Show me a family that\ndoesn't do as the dad says.\n
[06:51] ---
    If you want to sit out, sit out.\n
[06:53] ---
    I'll use my authority to bring in\nnew students to replace you.\n
[06:58] ---
    But I don't want to have to do that.\n
[07:02] ---
    After all, you're my precious family.\n
[07:04] ---
    A father doesn't want to lose\na single one of his children.\n
[07:08] ---
    Let's save the world\ntogether, kids--as a family!\n
[07:12] ---
    You need only two things\nto win over your students:\n
[07:17] ---
    affection and fear.\n
[07:19] ---
    Well? You're coming along\nwith your old dad, right?\n
[07:24] ---
    W-Well...\n
[07:25] ---
    I, um...\n
[07:29] ---
    I don't want to.\nI prefer Mr. Karasuma's class.\n
[07:38] ---
    Kanzaki!\n
[07:39] ---
    Seems you still don't understand.\nThe only answer here is "yes."\n
[07:45] ---
    If that's a problem, we can\ntalk it out with our fists.\n
[07:48] ---
    That's one of your old dad's specialties!\n
[07:51] ---
    Takaoka, stop!\n
[07:54] ---
    Are you all right? Does your neck hurt?\n
[07:58] ---
    I'm okay.\n
[07:59] ---
    And you, Maehara?\n
[08:01] ---
    Y-Yeah, fine.\n
[08:02] ---
    I'm going easy on them, Karasuma.\nAfter all, they're my family.\n
[08:08] ---
    No,\n
[08:09] ---
    they're not your family--they're my students.\n
[08:13] ---
    Koro Sensei!\n
[08:15] ---
    Just what have you been up to\nwhile my back was turned?\n
[08:20] ---
    Got a problem, monster? Phys ed is my class to run.
[08:27] ---
    And these punishments fall well\nwithin the bounds of education.\n
[08:30] ---
    I don't have much time to train up\nthese assassins to kill you--\n
[08:34] ---
    of course I need to be tough on them.\n
[08:37] ---
    And so what if I am? Just because\nyour views on education differ,\n
[08:41] ---
    is that any reason to attack a man\nwho never did you any harm?\n
[08:52] ---
    He'll wind up crushing those students.\n
[08:55] ---
    It looks all wrong to me, but he has\nhis own ideas about education...\n
[09:01] ---
    That's why, Mr. Karasuma,\nas a fellow phys ed teacher,\n
[09:05] ---
    I'd like you to shut him down.
[09:08] ---
    Me? Shut him down?\n
[09:11] ---
    It must really grind your gears, Karasuma,\n
[09:13] ---
    me stealing away your students like this.\n
[09:17] ---
    You were the best in our brigade,\nnever paying any heed\n
[09:20] ---
    to what I could do.\n
[09:22] ---
    And now I've snatched away your\nchance at the ultimate promotion.\n
[09:27] ---
    Let half these kids be crushed to smithereens.\n
[09:30] ---
    If I train the rest into fierce\nassassins and kill that octopus,\n
[09:34] ---
    I'll be the hero-training hero-- and you'll be at my beck and call!
[09:40] ---
    Th-This isn't funny!\n
[09:42] ---
    Three hundred squats? We'll die!\n
[09:46] ---
    Mr. Karasuma!\n
[09:48] ---
    Hey, now!\n
[09:51] ---
    Karasuma's not part of our family.\nPunishment time.\n
[09:56] ---
    This is what happens to kids\nwho don't rely on their dad alone!\n
[10:01] ---
    That's enough. If you want to\nget violent, get violent with me.\n
[10:06] ---
    I figured it was about time for you\nto stick your nose in, Karasuma...\n
[10:11] ---
    And about time for me to go there.
[10:13] ---
    It's like I said: this isn't\nviolence, it's education.\n
[10:17] ---
    I don't want to engage\nwith you through violence.\n
[10:19] ---
    If we do face off, it'll be as teachers.
[10:23] ---
    Choose the best of the students\nyou've trained, Karasuma.\n
[10:29] ---
    They can fight me, and if their\nknife so much as touches me,\n
[10:33] ---
    I'll concede that your style of\neducation is better than mine\n
[10:37] ---
    and take my leave.\n
[10:40] ---
    But we won't be using these old things.\n
[10:47] ---
    No, you'll be killing me... and that means\n
[10:52] ---
    you'll need the real thing.\n
[11:01] ---
    A real knife?\n
[11:04] ---
    Enough! They're neither trained\nnor prepared to kill a human!\n
[11:08] ---
    Relax--stopping just before\ncontact will count as a hit.\n
[11:12] ---
    And I'm barehanded.\nWhat more of a handicap do you want?\n
[11:16] ---
    This trick worked wonders in the military, too.\n
[11:20] ---
    Unarmed, I'd beat down\na terrified new recruit\n
[11:23] ---
    holding a knife for the first time.\n
[11:25] ---
    Everyone there saw how\nmuch I outranked them\n
[11:28] ---
    and became my faithful devotees.\n
[11:31] ---
    Well, Karasuma? Pick one!\n
[11:34] ---
    It's that, or obey me unconditionally!\n
[11:43] ---
    I still don't know.\n
[11:45] ---
    Do we really not need his no-mercy approach\n
[11:48] ---
    when training assassins to save the world?\n
[11:54] ---
    I've been nothing but unsure\never since I got here.\n
[11:58] ---
    And now: should I be exposing to danger\n
[12:01] ---
    a student with a hint of potential?\n
[12:06] ---
    Nagisa... will you do it?\n
[12:09] ---
    Wait, why Nagisa?\n
[12:11] ---
    As someone charged with an\nassassination mission to save the Earth,\n
[12:16] ---
    I consider you all fellow professionals.\n
[12:19] ---
    And as such, the very least\ncompensation you deserve\n
[12:22] ---
    is the guarantee of a normal junior-high life.\n
[12:27] ---
    So there's no need to force\nyourself to take this knife.\n
[12:32] ---
    I'll make every effort to have Takaoka\n
[12:35] ---
    continue to provide you that compensation.\n
[12:39] ---
    I like this man's eyes.\n
[12:42] ---
    None of my family members\nwould look me in the eye like this.\n
[12:48] ---
    There must be a lot\nthey're keeping from us.\n
[12:52] ---
    I don't even know why he chose me.\n
[12:56] ---
    But...\n
[12:59] ---
    If he's the one handing me the knife,\nI know I can trust him.\n
[13:03] ---
    And I can't forgive what happened\nto Kanzaki and Maehara.\n
[13:09] ---
    I'll do it.\n
[13:12] ---
    Your eyes must be going bad, Karasuma.\n
[13:16] ---
    What the hell is Karasuma doing, picking Nagisa?\n
[13:21] ---
    Just watch. You'll see.\n
[13:24] ---
    You think Nagisa's knife'll hit?\n
[13:26] ---
    No way. A real knife against a real pro?\n
[13:31] ---
    Nagisa!\n
[13:34] ---
    Bring it on!\n
[13:37] ---
    A public execution!\n
[13:39] ---
    I dodge all his attacks,\nthen torment him endlessly.\n
[13:43] ---
    The students will be so afraid,\n
[13:45] ---
    they'll come right around\nto my way of teaching.\n
[13:50] ---
    Now listen: for Takaoka, this is combat,\n
[13:53] ---
    meant to serve as a warning.\n
[13:55] ---
    But for you, it's an assassination.\n
[13:57] ---
    You don't need to show your strength.\nJust make contact once.\n
[14:02] ---
    One time, and you can win.\n
[14:09] ---
    He'll have realized what it\nmeans to be holding a knife...\n
[14:14] ---
    "Stab a person with a real knife\nand they'll die! I can't use this!"\n
[14:21] ---
    I love seeing a rank amateur go pale when that dawns on him!
[14:28] ---
    I wasn't too sure how to move\nwith a real knife in my hand.\n
[14:34] ---
    I remembered Mr. Karasuma's advice:\n
[14:38] ---
    That's right--I don't have to fight him to win.\n
[14:43] ---
    I just need to kill him.\n
[14:43] ---
    "I just need to kill him."\nI just need to kill him.\n
[14:46] ---
    So with a smile on my face,\n
[14:48] ---
    I walked right up to him.\n
[14:52] ---
    Completely normal, like walking to school.\n
[15:01] ---
    That's when Mr. Takaoka first realized\n
[15:04] ---
    he was about to be killed.\n
[15:07] ---
    Startled, he lost his balance.\n
[15:11] ---
    Everyone startles when\nthey're about to be killed.\n
[15:13] ---
    Even Koro Sensei.\n
[15:16] ---
    With his center of balance shifted to the back,\n
[15:18] ---
    I grab his shirt, pull him down,\n
[15:20] ---
    and go in for the kill.\n
[15:23] ---
    He can block a blow from the front,\n
[15:25] ---
    so I circle around behind him, and sure enough--\n
[15:32] ---
    Gotcha.\n
[15:38] ---
    Holy hell... he's exceeded\nmy every expectation!\n
[15:42] ---
    You would never find that\nkind of talent in everyday life!\n
[15:46] ---
    The talent to hide his\nbloodlust on his approach,\n
[15:49] ---
    to use that bloodlust to frighten his foe,\n
[15:51] ---
    to be so self-assured in\ngoing through with it all!\n
[15:54] ---
    That chill I felt during training...\n
[15:57] ---
    What if that had been a real assassination?\n
[15:59] ---
    He doesn't have a knack\nfor combat or for violence--\n
[16:02] ---
    that's a knack for assassination!\n
[16:04] ---
    Should I even encourage that kind of talent?\n
[16:09] ---
    Oops! Was I not supposed\nto use the back of my knife?\n
[16:12] ---
    That's enough!\n
[16:14] ---
    That's the match, Mr. Karasuma.\n
[16:18] ---
    Honestly, are you out of your mind,\ngiving a real knife to a student?\n
[16:24] ---
    What if he'd hurt himself?\n
[16:27] ---
    \n--You'd have been in there at Mach speed to patch him up.\n
[16:29] ---
    --You did it, Nagisa!\n--You'd have been in there at Mach speed to patch him up.\n
[16:30] ---
    --Oh, thank goodness!\n--You'd have been in there at Mach speed to patch him up.\n
[16:31] ---
    --That's a big deal!\n--But still...\n
[16:32] ---
    You sure know your way around a knife!\n
[16:35] ---
    Nah, I just did what Mr. Karasuma\ntold me. Mr. Takaoka is tough.\n
[16:41] ---
    Ow!\n
[16:42] ---
    What was that for?!\n
[16:44] ---
    Sorry. I kinda didn't believe that was you.\n
[16:47] ---
    But thanks! That assassination was a total rush!\n
[16:51] ---
    Stabbing that knife with a smile,\nand then that "Gotcha"?\n
[16:53] ---
    You were pretty lost out there today,\nweren't you, Mr. Karasuma.\n
[16:57] ---
    What's wrong with that?\n
[16:59] ---
    Oh, nothing.\n
[17:04] ---
    You brats...\n
[17:05] ---
    Turning on your father figure and\nrejoicing in some fluke victory?!\n
[17:11] ---
    Again!\n
[17:13] ---
    I'll tear you in two--body and soul!\n
[17:21] ---
    If we fought again, I'd lose for sure.\n
[17:25] ---
    But what's plain to see\n
[17:27] ---
    is that Koro Sensei is our teacher,\n
[17:29] ---
    and Mr. Karasuma is our training instructor.\n
[17:32] ---
    And that's final.\n
[17:35] ---
    You and your forced father-figure role\n
[17:38] ---
    don't come across half as warm\n
[17:40] ---
    as Mr. Karasuma and his professionalism.\n
[17:43] ---
    We're grateful you really\ntried to make us stronger...\n
[17:48] ---
    But I'm sorry. Please leave.\n
[17:57] ---
    Wait--what am I?\n
[17:59] ---
    You're our bitch.\n
[18:00] ---
    You're dead.
[18:01] ---
    A teacher's happiest moment\n
[18:04] ---
    is when a student gives a clear\nanswer to your own lesson\n
[18:07] ---
    of which you yourself are unsure.\n
[18:10] ---
    And Mr. Karasuma...\n
[18:12] ---
    --I'm not gonna stand here\n
[18:13] ---
    --a teacher must give a clear answer in response as well.\n--and listen to this brat spoutin' off!\n
[18:28] ---
    I apologize for the trouble\nmy colleague caused.\n
[18:31] ---
    Don't worry about what comes next.\n
[18:34] ---
    I'll negotiate with my superiors\nto resume my teaching position.\n
[18:39] ---
    Mr. Karasuma!\n
[18:41] ---
    You think I'll let you get one\nover on me like that? I'll--\n
[18:46] ---
    There's no need to negotiate.\n
[18:50] ---
    Principal Asano!\n
[18:53] ---
    I was curious as to how our\nnewest teacher was doing\n
[18:56] ---
    and saw the whole thing.\n
[18:59] ---
    Mr. Takaoka, your lesson was a joke.\n
[19:04] ---
    Yes, fear is a must in education.\n
[19:06] ---
    But a teacher who can only\ninstill fear through violence\n
[19:11] ---
    is a teacher of the lowest order indeed.\n
[19:14] ---
    B-But... I--\n
[19:16] ---
    Your walking papers.\n
[19:19] ---
    The Ministry of Defense\nhas no hiring rights here.\n
[19:24] ---
    I call the shots around here.\nAnd don't you forget it.\n
[19:29] ---
    Dammit, dammit, dammit,\ndammit, dammit, dammit...\n
[19:34] ---
    Damn it all to hell!\n
[19:39] ---
    Takaoka got fired?\n
[19:40] ---
    So it's back to Mr. Karasuma again?\n
[19:44] ---
    Hooray!\n
[19:47] ---
    He's as confident as ever in his views on education.
[19:52] ---
    What if...\n
[19:54] ---
    If he said he wanted to be\nan assassin when he grew up,\n
[19:58] ---
    would you still be able to train him--\nwith zero hesitation?\n
[20:03] ---
    He may not realize it,\nbut he has what it takes.\n
[20:09] ---
    That's a tricky one, to be sure...\n
[20:12] ---
    But I think every teacher has doubts.\n
[20:15] ---
    We secretly wonder if we're\ngiving them our best answers,\n
[20:20] ---
    but we must keep a cool head\nin front of our students,\n
[20:24] ---
    ever majestic, never letting them see us waver.\n
[20:29] ---
    And that's why teaching is such a great profession!
[20:36] ---
    Mr. Karasuma?\n
[20:38] ---
    Since it was us students who\ngot your phys ed job back,\n
[20:41] ---
    don't you think we should\nget some kind of reward?\n
[20:43] ---
    Yeah! That's one thing\nMr. Takaoka was great at!\n
[20:49] ---
    I don't know much about sweets.\nHere, get something you--\n
[20:54] ---
    Yesss!\n
[20:57] ---
    Let me in on that reward, too!\n
[20:58] ---
    Huh? What for?\n
[21:01] ---
    You didn't even do much this time around!\n
[21:03] ---
    No, no, no! I watched in silent contemplation\n
[21:07] ---
    so Mr. Karasuma could learn\nthe value of being a teacher!\n
[21:09] ---
    Never mind him. Let's go!\nC'mon, Mr. Karasuma!\n
[21:13] ---
    I might be getting a little\nstuck on this place--\n
[21:18] ---
    and the fun of training people\ndespite my doubts.\n
[21:25] ---
    --He's coming after us on his hands and knees!\n--Just how badly does he want it?!\n
[21:28] ---
    Please, please, please, please, please--

    *I saw last night--I was waiting for... *
[22:33] ---
    *Hello, shooting star *
[22:35] ---
    *Hello, shooting star again *
[22:38] ---
    *She's been waiting *
[22:39] ---
    *That dreaming girl has been here *

[22:50] ---
    *Just like she was that day, ah ah *
