Summer is really hot.
That's what people in Osaka say during hot weather.
It's very hot.
Why are we hiking to the back of the mountain?
The pool is at the main campus, isn't it?
-I think you're lost. -Right.
Nagisa.
I heard you did well the other day.
If I knew that would happen, I'd come to see your assassination skills.
It may be a useful tactic on humans, but it's meaningless in this classroom.
We're all still practicing assassination tactics every day.
But until now,
no one has found an effective way to assassinate Mr. Koro.
We're here. Come and see, everyone.
I made this pool specially for Class E.
-Cool! -Let's go!
Look at me!
It's because he's so good to us
that makes it hard for us
to kill him.
I'm happy, but I feel a little down. I can't really swim.
And my swimsuit is too revealing.
Relax, Kaeda.
Someday, you'll find someone who can appreciate your physique.
Taiga.
Don't wear the face of a lady-killer while taking pictures sneakily.
Nagisa.
You...
You're a boy?
-You just found out? -You can't blame her.
Masayoshi, don't run along the poolside!
You'd risk falling down. It's dangerous!
I'm so sorry.
Sumire and Rio!
Don't hold your breath for too long when underwater.
If you stay under for too long, you might drown.
I'm confiscating your camera, Taiga.
Kirara, don't just read. Go and swim.
He's so annoying.
People like him do exist.
They think they can control everything they've created.
Our gratefulness is diminished by his attitude.
I made full use of nature in my plan, from the scenery to the surrounding.
So, everyone must follow the rules as you have fun.
Please don't be so rigid, Mr. Koro.
Otherwise I'll splash you!
What was that blood-curdling shriek about?
Karma, don't shake it! I'll fall into the water!
I'm serious! I'll fall!
I beg of you!
Mr. Koro.
Are you...
Of course not. I just don't feel like swimming, that's all.
It's not like my tentacles will swell until I can't move.
Mr. Koro
can't swim.
MR. KORO'S WEAKNESS, NUMBER 23, CAN'T SWIM
This might be the most useful information to date.
You were holding that kickboard.
That's why I thought you wanted to swim.
This isn't a kickboard.
-It's a pancake. -That's actually food?
EPISODE 14
What did you say? You're happy that your grades improved?
Say it again if you dare, Takuya!
This is the highest I've ever scored!
It's thanks to that octopus.
He started the "After-school Session Revision Before the Trial Examination."
You actually went to that revision class?
Well...
Didn't the three of us agree not to attend that revision class?
But attending that revision class made a huge difference.
It's disgusting to listen to you!
You went with the flow just to improve your grades.
You're a traitor.
I'm so angry.
Everyone is won over by that octopus.
I can't take it anymore.
Is that real, Mr. Koro?
It looks so real.
What are you doing, Taisei?
Hey, Ryoma.
I was having a good chat with him about motorcycles the other day
because no one else in school is interested in them.
I'm not just an adult, I'm also a man amongst men.
That's why I'm very interested in these things.
I heard this machine can reach 300km per hour at top speed.
I've always wanted to ride one.
Idiot.
You'd be faster flying while you hold the machine.
Ryoma, what are you doing?
Apologize now!
Mr. Koro who's not just an adult, but a man amongst men is crying right now.
-That's right! -That's right!
You're all buzzing away like insects.
I'm going to kill you, pests.
What's this?
Insecticide?
Ryoma, there's a limit to pranks too.
Don't touch me, beast.
You're disgusting.
You're disgusting and so are those whose hearts are won over by you.
Why are you so unhappy?
If you're so unhappy with him, just kill him then.
Isn't this exactly what this class is for?
Are you picking a fight with me?
That's exactly what I want.
Actually, right from the start, I've...
Ryoma, this isn't right.
If you want to fight me, use your fists and not just your words.
Let go of me!
What a bunch of boring people.
What's wrong with him?
He just can't be friends with anyone.
What world crisis?
What self-discipline for the sake of assassination?
And breaking away from underachievers?
Honestly, I couldn't care less.
I just want to live as I please.
So, I...
Well done.
Here's the 100,000-yen reward we agreed on.
Thanks to you, we managed to prepare well.
This is a situation I'm comfortable with.
The octopus is very alert.
That's why we had to look for an inside man
to help set the stage for Itona to show his true ability.
Ryoma Terasaka, I completely understand your feelings.
Don't worry.
As long as you follow my plan,
we can kill Mr. Koro in no time.
And Class E will return to how it was before he appeared.
You are weaker than your red-headed classmate.
You're clearly bigger and stronger than he is.
Do you know where your problem is?
You have no vision in your eyes.
You have no will to win, no strategy, no passion.
You're a dimwit who only lives for the moment.
You're no match for a wolf whose eyes are set hungrily on the target.
-Jerk! -Calm down.
We'll make our move tomorrow. Please do your best.
What's the matter? You've been crying nonstop.
No, this is my nose.
I'm not crying, it's my nose that's running.
-My eyes are here. -How would we know?
I've been feeling weird since yesterday.
Ryoma!
I was so worried you'd skip school today.
The canned stuff you sprayed in the class yesterday was fir pollen.
He's the only one who is allergic to it.
It dulls the senses for creatures with tentacles.
Now is the time to lure him out.
Octopus.
I'm actually going to kill you this time.
Come to the pool after school.
I hear water is your weakness.
All of you should come and help me.
I'm going to push him into the water myself!
Ryoma.
You've never helped us in our assassination efforts.
But you're suddenly asking us to help you.
Do you think everyone will simply follow?
It's okay if you don't come.
The reward of ten billion yen will be all mine.
What's wrong with him?
To be honest, I don't know.
I'm not going.
Me neither.
Let's all go together.
His mucus is going to dry up.
Ryoma is actually going to kill me.
Everyone should help him and make up with him.
Firstly, you're not making us happy!
Ryoma.
Do you really mean to kill him?
What do you mean Nagisa? That goes without saying.
In that case, you should tell everyone the details of your plan.
Be quiet!
You weaklings always go around in a group.
You clearly don't have enough vision to assassinate him.
I'm not like the rest of you.
I have the vision to kill him easily.
Ryoma may have an advanced plan to kill,
but he doesn't seem to have the confidence in himself.
Even his speech sounds scripted.
This incoherence makes me uneasy.
That's good. That's the way.
Spread out in the pool just like that.
Look at that guy.
I have my doubts.
Do you really have what it takes to lead everyone?
Be quiet, Kotaro. Just hurry up and jump in.
Ryoma has become a real tyrant.
It's just like when he was in his freshman and sophomore year.
Is that how it is?
You want to push me into the water and let everyone kill me?
So, how do you plan to push me in?
That pistol won't get me to move even half a step.
This is not a pistol. It's a transmitter to send us a signal.
When everybody is standing by in the pool, signal us to let us know.
Are you ready to die, beast?
Of course, I'm ready. Even my nose has stopped running.
I've always hated you.
I wish you'd disappear from this world.
I've always known this.
Let's have a long talk after this assassination.
You take me so lightly.
Come now, Itona!
My students!
We're being swept away.
You'll have to jump in to save them, Mr. Koro.
This can't be happening.
No one told me it'll be like this.
There are sharp rocks ahead. They will be killed if they fall!
While he's busy rescuing his students, his tentacles will absorb water.
His mucus can protect his tentacles from a bit of water.
You're right, Itona.
Mucus can be used to set the water and adjust osmotic pressure.
But he has run out of mucus.
What is happening?
I didn't do anything.
This isn't what we agreed on.
The plan was to get Itona to come and push him in.
It that so?
This is not your own plan. You were being manipulated.
I told you, I didn't do this.
Blame the mastermind of the plan.
They are the ones who have caused everyone to be swept away.
They weren't the ones who were swept away. It's you.
Instead of wasting time blaming others,
how about coming up with a way to redeem yourself?
That's the last one.
It has been a while, Mr. Koro.
By the way, what you've absorbed is not ordinary water.
It has a substance that dulls your tentacles' movements.
Everything went well for us, thanks to Ryoma.
Itona.
Come.
Let's have another match to see who's stronger.
I thought I was strong.
I targeted the weak and controlled them.
That was how I ensured my victories.
But this way of existence was totally inapplicable in this school.
Let's skip the next class and visit the convenience stores.
No, I need to prepare for English class.
You won't lose much by skipping one class.
Here's an ape trying to scare a human.
What?
But this way of existence was totally inapplicable in this school.
Let me tell you, Ryoma.
No one in this school does this.
You may be a tough gang leader,
but in Class E you are just a weakling.
You would come in last in class, right?
I can't wait.
Once we get to Class E, I'll strike you when you're down.
That was when I understood.
My cheap weapon was ineffective in this class.
In fact, it'll be that way forever.
They have a vision for their future and work hard towards it.
When they grow up, they will use it over aimless people like me.
When I ended up in Class E,
I thought I could continue with my aimless way of life with my classmates.
But even in this place,
a monster suddenly appeared
and gave everyone an important goal to reach.
Being last in class,
I'm also used and manipulated by calculative people with ulterior motives.
Damn it!
He hits fast and hard.
Faster and harder than before.
I reduced his tentacle count and increased his strength and speed.
It's easy for a child to control.
Is this real?
He only absorbed a little water. He should be able to fight back.
It's not just water.
Ryoma.
He couldn't use his true strength because he had to save you all.
Look above him.
Sumire is about to fall!
Mr. Koro is trying to protect her and the boys.
She's too fat and heavy. It's too dangerous.
-We must help him. -How do we do that?
What happened here is all because you let them use you.
Yes, that's true.
A person with no goals, no vision and no foresight
is bound to be manipulated by smart people.
But at the very least, I should decide who will manipulate me.
I've been manipulated by them.
I definitely won't let them get away with what they want.
So, Karma. Manipulate me if you can.
Use your cunning brains to give me a battle plan.
I will follow it closely and rescue them.
All right.
But can you really carry out the plan I have in mind?
A wrong move can be fatal.
I'll do it.
I'm an offender who gets things done.
It's time to finish him, Itona.
-Hey! -Ryoma?
How could you take me for a fool?
Don't be so upset.
We only gave your classmates a little role in this.
Isn't it perfect for someone like you who couldn't fit in with Class E?
Be quiet!
I won't forgive you both.
Itona, let's have a duel.
Stop, Ryoma! You're no match for him!
Don't interfere, you water-logged octopus.
You're brave.
Silence him, Itona.
-Karma! -Don't worry.
Shiro's aim is not to kill us.
By letting us live, Mr. Koro's attention will be divided.
Sumire may seem to be in danger, but Itona won't attack her.
That's why I told Ryoma
that Itona may hit him hard enough with his tentacle to knock him out.
On the other hand,
his speed and power has been increased at this level.
I told him to hold out with everything that he has.
You're good.
Itona, hit him again.
Ryoma's wearing the same shirt that he wore yesterday.
That means
that shirt was also sprayed with that weird substance at close range.
So, Itona won't be spared from the allergen either.
With that moment of distraction,
that octopus will immediately rescue Sumire.
Taisei! Takuya!
Make a huge splash!
-Seriously? -Goodness.
He has the same weakness as Mr. Koro.
We're just giving him a taste of his own medicine.
-Great! -Take this!
You've absorbed a lot of water.
Your advantage has now diminished.
What are you going to do now?
We don't want you to claim your prize.
Also, you nearly killed everyone.
And Ryoma got painfully beaten.
If you still want to continue,
we'll go all out and splash water on you.
Well, you got us.
We'll have to retreat.
Even if we kill these kids,
we don't know how out-of-control his antimatter organs would get.
Itona, let's go home.
How was it?
Didn't you have fun with everyone?
How about you join us?
Itona.
We finally got rid of them.
That's wonderful, Mr. Koro.
We managed to save your life.
Of course, I'm grateful to all of you.
But I still had some tricks up my sleeves.
By the way, Ryoma,
you said some cruel things about me just now.
You said I was heavy and fat.
No, it was just an objective analysis of the battlefield situation.
That's criticism!
Do you want to see how scary an agile fat person is?
Ryoma, you really are insensitive.
That's why you easily let people toy with you.
Be quiet, Karma!
Don't you dare judge me while standing up there.
Hey!
-What have you done to your boss? -Who's my boss?
What kind of boss would ask someone to block a tentacle with his body?
You're the king of delinquents, yet you want the credit for yourself.
I feel the same too.
This is a good chance for you to taste a little muddy water.
-Take this. -This is great!
Ryoma is not fit to plan something from up high.
His strong points are only displayed on the battlefield.
He shines through physical might and prowess.
And he lets others shine too.
He's an assassin worth waiting for.
That boy, Ryoma.
He may be rough, but he's starting to adapt to the class.
Karma, me, also everyone else are sincerely happy about this.
We're so happy that the whole class overlooked something at this point.
Compared to this mere water,
Mr. Koro's biggest weakness is...
