    "Old Campus"\n
[00:08] ---
    Now, then, class...\n
[00:10] ---
    Shall we begin?\n
[00:12] ---
    Begin what?
[00:14] ---
    --Midterm time has rolled around.\n--Yes, that's right.\n
[00:17] ---
    And that's why this period\n
[00:18] ---
    will be spent in a high-speed study session!\n
[00:22] ---
    My clones can work with you one-on-one\n
[00:24] ---
    to drill you on each of your worst subjects.\n
[00:28] ---
    Ridiculous. He even switches\nheadbands for each subject.\n
[00:34] ---
    Hey! Why do I get a Naruto headband?!
[00:37] ---
    I think Koro Sensei\n
[00:38] ---
    is getting faster and faster.\n
[00:41] ---
    Six Japanese, eight math, three social studies,\n
[00:45] ---
    four science, four English, one Naruto.
[00:49] ---
    Splitting up for each student like that?\n
[00:52] ---
    It wasn't too long ago that he could\nonly handle four or five clones.\n
[00:56] ---
    No sneak assassinations now, Karma!\n
[00:59] ---
    Dodging will disrupt my persistence of vision!\n
[01:02] ---
    These clones are so fine and delicate.\n
[01:06] ---
    But do you have any strength\nleft after making them?\n
[01:09] ---
    Not to worry.\n
[01:11] ---
    I have one clone resting outside.\n
[01:13] ---
    How is that helping?!
[01:16] ---
    This power-up in acceleration...\n
[01:18] ---
    I wonder if it's preparation\nfor destroying the Earth in a year.\n
[01:23] ---
    No matter how you slice it,\nhe's one tricky target for us killers.\n
[01:27] ---
    So,\n
[01:27] ---
    do you understand so far, Nagisa?\n
[01:31] ---
    Yes, sir.\n
[01:32] ---
    If you're facing exams...\nhe's a good teacher to have.\n
[01:42] ---
    *The theory... of savage youth! *
[01:51] ---
    *I only speak when it's time to act *
[01:55] ---
    *I know that's pretty cool

    "Episode 6: Test Time"\n
[03:15] ---
    "Staff Room"\nI want to line up the colors \n
[03:16] ---
    on this cube--all of them, and quickly,\nwith a method anyone could use.\n
[03:21] ---
    Goodbye, Koro Sensei!\n
[03:22] ---
    How would you go about it,\n
[03:24] ---
    --Hope you manage to kill me tomorrow!\n--teachers?\n
[03:27] ---
    The answer is simple.\n
[03:30] ---
    "Principal Gakuho Asano"\n
[03:30] ---
    Take them apart and put them\nback together again. Very logical.\n
[03:36] ---
    We meet at last, Koro Sensei.\n
[03:41] ---
    He says he's the principal of this place.\n
[03:44] ---
    As teachers, he's our boss.\n
[03:48] ---
    My, my--you've come all this way (knead knead)!\n
[03:50] ---
    Say, might I receive a little bump in my salary?\n
[03:54] ---
    "Koro Sensei's Weak Point #6:\nSubservient to higher-ups"\n
[03:56] ---
    I must apologize.\n
[03:59] ---
    I'd meant to come pay my respects.\n
[04:03] ---
    The Ministry of Defense and\nMr. Karasuma have told me all about you.\n
[04:08] ---
    I can't claim to understand everything, but...\n
[04:14] ---
    How very sad you are. Looking to\nbecome the savior of the world,\n
[04:21] ---
    only to fall into the role of the\ngreat villain who would destroy it.\n
[04:26] ---
    Savior? Villain?\n
[04:29] ---
    But let's set that aside for now.\n
[04:33] ---
    Struggle as I might, I cannot hope\nto save the planet from its crisis.\n
[04:38] ---
    Barring the unexpected, I'll stay out\nof your assassination altogether.\n
[04:44] ---
    You've certainly paid me enough.\n
[04:48] ---
    That will be helpful.\n
[04:49] ---
    Well, aren't you rational!\nI do like a rational man.\n
[04:55] ---
    I'm honored. However...\n
[04:59] ---
    As principal, I must consider\nwhat's in store next year and beyond,\n
[05:03] ---
    should the Earth survive.\n
[05:05] ---
    In other words, if someone\ndoes happen to kill you,\n
[05:09] ---
    what is this school's future?\n
[05:12] ---
    Frankly, we need the E Class to remain as it is.\n
[05:21] ---
    As it is? You mean, with rock-bottom\ngrades and treatment, like now?\n
[05:26] ---
    Yes. Are you familiar with\nthe worker ant principle?\n
[05:31] ---
    In any group, 20 percent will be lazy,\n20 percent will work hard,\n
[05:36] ---
    and the remaining 60 percent will be average.\n
[05:40] ---
    My goal is a group with 5 percent\nslackers and 95 percent hard workers.\n
[05:48] ---
    "I don't want to be like the E Class."\n
[05:51] ---
    "I don't want to be in the E Class."
[05:53] ---
    With 95 percent of students thus determined,\n
[05:57] ---
    my ideal ratio is attainable.\n
[06:01] ---
    I see. How logical.\n
[06:04] ---
    Then the 5 percent in the E Class\nmust be kept weak and pitiful.\n
[06:09] ---
    I received a complaint from\nthe D Class teacher today:\n
[06:14] ---
    "A student from E Class\nglared at one of my students\n
[06:18] ---
    and threatened to kill him."\n
[06:23] ---
    I'm sure the glare is part and parcel\nof the whole assassination thing.\n
[06:27] ---
    And that's fine.\n
[06:29] ---
    The problem\n
[06:31] ---
    lies in a student with rock-bottom\ngrades defying a regular one.\n
[06:37] ---
    Under my policies, that cannot stand.\n
[06:42] ---
    Please tell him in no uncertain\nterms to control himself.\n
[06:46] ---
    Oh, and--Koro Sensei?\n
[06:48] ---
    You have one second. Solve this.\n
[06:51] ---
    What? Just like that?!\n
[06:53] ---
    "One Second Later"\n
[06:55] ---
    What the hell is this?!\n
[06:56] ---
    "Koro Sensei's Weak Point #7:\nMetal ring puzzles freak him out"\n
[06:58] ---
    Your amazing speed lives up to the hype.\n
[07:01] ---
    No doubt you can dodge\nany attempt on your life.\n
[07:05] ---
    But you know, Koro Sensei...\n
[07:08] ---
    There are some problems speed can't solve.\n
[07:15] ---
    Now, if you'll excuse me.\n
[07:24] ---
    Hey there! Looking forward to seeing\nyour midterm results! Good luck.\n
[07:38] ---
    With that dry "good luck,"\n
[07:41] ---
    I went from being an assassin\nback to the End Class, just like that.\n
[07:48] ---
    As a target, this guy is practically invincible.\n
[07:52] ---
    His assassination is\nentirely within his control.\n
[07:56] ---
    But as a teacher, there's someone\nmore powerful pulling the strings:\n
[08:04] ---
    the principal of Kunugigaoka\nAcademy, Gakuho Asano.\n
[08:08] ---
    "Education's Favored Son"\n
[08:09] ---
    A shrewd manager who, in its first ten years,\nmade this school one of the nation's best.\n
[08:15] ---
    There's no escaping the\nstructure he's built here.\n
[08:20] ---
    Not even for you.\n
[08:26] ---
    "The Next Day"\n
[08:28] ---
    Good morning, class.\n
[08:31] ---
    Today I've tried making even more of me!\n
[08:34] ---
    That's way too many!\n
[08:37] ---
    Now, let's begin.\n
[08:39] ---
    Even the afterimages are getting sloppy.\n
[08:41] ---
    So sloppy, it's like he's\nturning into someone else!\n
[08:44] ---
    What wrong, Koro Sensei? Isn't this a little too gung ho?
[08:48] ---
    Hmm? Not at all!\n
[08:52] ---
    We need the E Class to remain as it is.\n
[09:01] ---
    You know, he does look pretty beat.\n
[09:04] ---
    Maybe now's our chance!\n
[09:06] ---
    Why's he teachering this hard, anyway?\n
[09:11] ---
    All to get your test scores up!\nIf that happens...\n
[09:17] ---
    Koro Sensei!\n
[09:19] ---
    I got a good score--thanks to you!\n
[09:21] ---
    "Students gazing at him with respect"\nI can't live without your classes, Koro Sensei!\n
[09:24] ---
    "Students gazing at him with respect"\nI could never kill you!\n
[09:26] ---
    "Local big-chested college students"\nOh, sir, help us study, too!\n
[09:28] ---
    "who've heard how good he is"\nOh, sir, help us study, too!\n
[09:29] ---
    ...and with no fear of being killed,\nI'll be rolling in good fortune!\n
[09:35] ---
    Uh,\n
[09:36] ---
    the whole studying part is fine and all...\n
[09:39] ---
    Yeah, but if we assassinate him,\nwe get ten billion yen.\n
[09:43] ---
    And with ten billion, you don't need\ngood grades to live the good life!\n
[09:48] ---
    I-Is that what you think?!\n
[09:50] ---
    We're the End Class, Koro Sensei.\n
[09:53] ---
    Assassination is way more\naccessible to us than any exam.\n
[09:59] ---
    Ah. I see how it is.\n
[10:03] ---
    How what is?\n
[10:06] ---
    You still don't have what\nit takes to be assassins.\n
[10:12] ---
    Out into the schoolyard, all of you!\n
[10:24] ---
    What's the big idea, sendin' us\nall out into the yard like this?\n
[10:27] ---
    Who knows? A bad mood\ncame over him all of a sudden.\n
[10:31] ---
    One good thing about the E Class system\n
[10:34] ---
    is its built-in remedial process.\n
[10:37] ---
    By scoring in the top 50 of\n186 students on periodic exams\n
[10:42] ---
    and receiving permission from\ntheir former teacher to return,\n
[10:46] ---
    they can leave this outcast E Class.\n
[10:49] ---
    However,\n
[10:50] ---
    it's too difficult to meet these\nconditions given their poor grades\n
[10:55] ---
    in this inferior academic environment.\n
[10:58] ---
    Most E Class students,\n
[11:00] ---
    with their sense of inferiority\nthat remediation is far out of reach,\n
[11:03] ---
    accept this harsh discrimination.\n
[11:07] ---
    What do you mean, hurry up?\n
[11:09] ---
    Koro Sensei asked us to bring you.\n
[11:12] ---
    Ms. Irina, let me ask you something\nas a professional assassin.\n
[11:17] ---
    What is all this?
[11:19] ---
    When you're on a job, do you\nhave one single plan prepared?\n
[11:25] ---
    No...\n
[11:26] ---
    It's not often that my\nmain plan goes as expected.\n
[11:30] ---
    Making more detailed backup plans\nin preparation for any contingencies\n
[11:34] ---
    is Assassination 101.\n
[11:36] ---
    And you, Mr. Karasuma.\n
[11:39] ---
    When you teach knife skills, is the\nfirst strike the only important one?\n
[11:46] ---
    The first strike is of course\nthe most important,\n
[11:49] ---
    but your next move matters, too.\n
[11:51] ---
    Against a powerful foe,\n
[11:53] ---
    your first blow is likely to be dodged,\n
[11:56] ---
    so the precision with which you can\nland your second and third blows\n
[12:00] ---
    can decide the fight.\n
[12:02] ---
    Look, what are you getting at?\n
[12:06] ---
    As your teachers have said,\n
[12:08] ---
    having a trusty second step is what\nmakes for a confident assassin.\n
[12:13] ---
    But what about you?\n
[12:16] ---
    "We've got assassination, and that's enough,"\n
[12:19] ---
    you think, and down go your academic goals.\n
[12:22] ---
    You're just trying not to face the\nreason for your inferiority complex.\n
[12:28] ---
    What if I got away from this classroom?\n
[12:32] ---
    If another killer managed to do me in?\n
[12:36] ---
    Without the assassination\nyou rely on, all you're left with\n
[12:39] ---
    is good ol' E Class inferiority.\n
[12:43] ---
    A word of advice from me to you,\nas you walk that fine line:\n
[12:49] ---
    Those who can't wield a second blade\n
[12:52] ---
    aren't qualified to be an assassin!\n
[13:04] ---
    What the--?!\n
[13:05] ---
    There's a huge tornado\non the E Class's mountain!\n
[13:10] ---
    Show-off.\n
[13:25] ---
    The yard was very uneven and\nfull of weeds. I tidied it up.\n
[13:35] ---
    I am a super-creature capable\nof wiping out the Earth.\n
[13:39] ---
    Flattening out this area\nhere is a piece of cake.\n
[13:44] ---
    If you can't show me\nthat trusty second blade,\n
[13:49] ---
    I'll know there's no assassin in\nthis classroom worth taking me on,\n
[13:54] ---
    and I'll flatten this entire campus before I go.\n
[13:58] ---
    A second blade? When?\n
[14:02] ---
    Tomorrow, of course.\n
[14:06] ---
    I want all of you in the top 50\nafter tomorrow's midterms.\n
[14:13] ---
    I've already been developing\nyour second blades.\n
[14:18] ---
    I don't use the doltish teaching\nmethods they do at the main campus.\n
[14:23] ---
    Wield those blades with all confidence!\n
[14:28] ---
    Succeed in your mission and hold\nyour head high, smiling, unashamed.\n
[14:33] ---
    You are proud assassins--\nand proud members of the E Class!\n
[14:39] ---
    Then...\n
[14:41] ---
    ...it was midterm time.\n
[14:55] ---
    "3-E Midterms" "First Period: Math"\n
[15:05] ---
    All students took these\nexams at the main campus,\n
[15:10] ---
    which means it was an away game\nonly for us E Class students.\n
[15:26] ---
    One knife isn't enough to kill it!\nWhat's with this Question 4?!\n
[15:31] ---
    "Question 4"\n
[15:41] ---
    I was well aware...\n
[15:45] ---
    ...that our school's exams are the pits.\n
[15:49] ---
    Oh, no... I don't know where to begin!\n
[15:53] ---
    If this keeps up, this question...\n
[15:59] ---
    ...will do me in!\n
[16:09] ---
    Seriously? You'll really leave if\nthey don't all make the top fifty?\n
[16:14] ---
    Yes.\n
[16:16] ---
    No way in hell! They've had the\nworst grades until just recently!\n
[16:21] ---
    I wonder. I don't know about the past,\nbut they're my students now.\n
[16:28] ---
    When you're in a tight spot, protect yourself.\n
[16:32] ---
    That's the weapon I've given them.\n
[16:41] ---
    I'm sure I taught you this.\n
[16:43] ---
    That's no mystery monster.\n
[16:46] ---
    "Question 4"\n
[16:47] ---
    Start by observing that fin carefully.\n
[16:50] ---
    See? On closer inspection, it's just a fin.\n
[16:54] ---
    Look carefully at each part\nof the question one by one,\n
[16:57] ---
    then string them all together to see the whole:\n
[17:00] ---
    "Question 4"\n
[17:00] ---
    "Question 4"\nSee? What a trivial adversary!\n
[17:04] ---
    Now use your blade to cook it up.\n
[17:10] ---
    I got it!\n
[17:14] ---
    The trick to working out the\nimportant parts of a question--\n
[17:19] ---
    it's all just like Koro Sensei taught us!\n
[17:32] ---
    This question...\n
[17:36] ---
    ...is dead meat!\n
[17:39] ---
    And the next one!\n
[17:41] ---
    And the one after that!\n
[17:43] ---
    And--\n
[17:56] ---
    "Question 11"\n
[18:05] ---
    And then an unseen question\nbeat us to death from behind.\n
[18:13] ---
    What's the meaning of this?\n
[18:17] ---
    I felt the test was markedly\nlacking in fairness.\n
[18:20] ---
    That's strange.\n
[18:21] ---
    "Nagisa Shiota - Ranked 105th of 186."\nYou should have been notified.\n
[18:24] ---
    "Yuma Isogai - Ranked 68th of 186."\nMaybe some kind of communication slip-up on your end?\n
[18:27] ---
    I mean, you never come to the main campus.\n
[18:28] ---
    "Ryoma Terasaka - Ranked 159th of 186."\nI mean, you never come to the main campus.\n
[18:31] ---
    I can't say there was--\nand regardless, this is highly unusual.\n
[18:37] ---
    Two days before the exams,\n
[18:39] ---
    and you broaden the scope to cover all subjects?
[18:41] ---
    You don't seem to understand, uh, Mr. Karasuma.\n
[18:45] ---
    We are a prep school.\n
[18:48] ---
    Testing students on last-minute\ncramming is part of our policies.\n
[18:54] ---
    Why, the main-campus students\nhad the principal himself\n
[18:58] ---
    take the stage and give a splendid\nlecture about the changes.\n
[19:06] ---
    Is there nothing that man won't do\nin the name of his own doctrine?\n
[19:13] ---
    They've put us in a fine spot.\n
[19:16] ---
    If he leaves the E Class, we lose everything.\n
[19:30] ---
    I take all responsibility.\n
[19:33] ---
    I seem to have underestimated\nthe system at this school.\n
[19:38] ---
    I can't bear to face you.\n
[19:46] ---
    You sure?\n
[19:48] ---
    If you can't face us,\nyou can't see me coming to kill you.\n
[19:53] ---
    Karma! I'm very depressed right now, and--\n
[19:59] ---
    Changing the questions didn't matter to me.\n
[20:03] ---
    Whoa!\n
[20:04] ---
    100 in math? No way!\n
[20:07] ---
    With my grades, you taught...\n
[20:09] ---
    --We've come this far, so why not move further ahead?\n--...more than you had to.\n
[20:12] ---
    So I could handle the questions \neven if they'd changed their scope.\n
[20:16] ---
    --You're great at this, Karma.\n--Still,\n
[20:18] ---
    I won't be leaving.\n
[20:21] ---
    Assassination is way more fun\nthan going back to my old class.\n
[20:26] ---
    So what's the plan?\n
[20:29] ---
    You gonna use our not all\nmaking it into the top fifty\n
[20:33] ---
    as an excuse to turn tail and run?\n
[20:36] ---
    You're just afraid of being killed, that's all.\n
[20:48] ---
    Oh, is that it? You were afraid!\n
[20:52] ---
    You should have just told us!\n
[20:54] ---
    Right? Like, "I'm scared\nand want to run away!"\n
[21:03] ---
    I am not running away!
[21:05] ---
    Oh? Then what?\n
[21:08] ---
    We'll get revenge on them\ntwofold in the end-of-term exams!\n
[21:13] ---
    This is no laughing matter!\n
[21:15] ---
    Honestly!\n
[21:16] ---
    We ran smack into a wall\nthere with our midterms,\n
[21:18] ---
    --Aren't you thoroughly disappointed?!\n--a big thick wall surrounding the E Class.\n
[21:23] ---
    \n--But inside, I was proud.\n
[21:25] ---
    --Ready, now, after me: fight! --But inside, I was proud.
[21:27] ---
    --Ready, now, after me: fight! --Proud to be in the E Class.

    *With notebook and pen in my leather bag *
[22:01] ---
    *C'mon, let's go walking *
[22:06] ---
    *I draw and I draw *
[22:10] ---
    *But they don't get any neater *
[22:12] ---
    *There's nothing wrong with the paint I've chosen *
[22:18] ---
    *I still remember the shooting star *
[22:25] ---
    *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 *
[22:44] ---
    *All this time, ah ah *
[22:50] ---
    *Just like she was that day, ah ah *
[22:56] ---
    *Shine again *
