That concludes...

...the detailed data on Kiyotaka Ayanokoji
and the 156 second-year students.

You've memorized it all, haven't you?

Your mission is to have
Ayanokoji expelled by April...

...and bring him back to the White Room.

However, carry this out discreetly.

If this becomes public,
it could damage that person's...

I mean, the teacher's reputation.

You don't seem convinced.

Is it because you don't like how
he's being praised as the masterpiece?

Well then, the stage has been set.

All that remains is for you
to give it your all.

With the level of skill you possess,
expelling him should be a piece of cake.

There's one thing I forgot to confirm.

You're not hiding anything
from me, are you?

A battle between
White Room students...

Hunt or be hunted...

It's just a game between children...

...but it looks like it's going
to be interesting.

Look, the blackboard has turned
into a monitor! Isn't that amazing?

Sup, Ayanokoji.

Miyake, huh.

I was a bit worried since you
didn't show up much with the group

during spring break.

Sorry.

I was a bit busy back then.

Of course, you don't have
to force yourself to join,

but there's Haruka, and more than
anything, Airi seemed worried about you.

Sorry about that.

I'll try to hang out
with you guys more often.

That's good, then.

I was feeling lonely without
you around myself.

What were you guys talking about?

Nothing.

S-Suzune?!

What did you do to your hair?!

Horikita, you've had
a complete makeover.

Is it really that strange
that I cut my hair?

N-No... It's not strange at all,
it's just surprising.

I mean, short hair
actually suits you...

R-Right, Kushida?

Yeah, you're right.
But did something happen?

If I had to say,
it's a declaration of my resolve.

Now that we're second-year students,

we'll be fighting to move
Class D up to a higher class.

And I want to do what I can
to make that happen.

I see.

Then maybe I'll try growing my hair out.

You guys are noisy.

Hurry up and take your seats.

Without further ado,

I need you to complete an important
procedure for your future school life.

Access the school website
and install a new application.

The app's official name is
"Over All Ability,"

or "OAA" for short.

OAA?

This app, which will be
introduced to all grades,

will provide various benefits
for your school life.

For example, it contains
personal data for all students.

Try checking your own data.

M-Ms. Chabashira, my records
look like stats in a video game!

That's right.

Those are your individual records
calculated by the school...

...based on your achievements
up to the end of your first year.

Regardless of class, you can view the
records of all students across all grades.

My academic ability score is E?

Scores will be updated
at the beginning of each month.

Sudo, even if your score is E now,

if you score full marks on the next
written exam, you will be given an A+.

Ooh!

But does that mean our bad records
will remain as a stain on us?

And everyone in the school
can see them too?

Your first-year records are nothing
more than records of the past.

They will not affect your future scores.

In other words, the school hopes this will
help those with poor grades reevaluate...

...and encourage their growth.

A convenient tool
for checking records...

No, it can't be just that.

This app is impartial.

Everyone is assessed equally,

and it will also serve as a tool

to promote interaction
regardless of grade level.

However, I believe that's not all.

This is just my personal
speculation, but...

Students whose overall ability does not
meet a certain standard within a year...

...may face some kind of penalty.

A penalty?

Could it be expulsion?

Y-You're kidding, right?!

Some of you may not be
satisfied with your scores,

but this is your current evaluation.

If you're unhappy with it,

then show what you've got
over the next year,

to convince the school
to change its mind.

It's like an individual battle.

The introduction of this app
seems to overturn...

...the way we've fought
as a class up until now.

It's no wonder students
are confused and dissatisfied.

For the record, this system...

...was proposed by the current student
council president, Miyabi Nagumo.

So Nagumo's dream of creating
a system where individuals...

...are assessed on their own
merits has been realized.

Your first special exam as second-year
students will also introduce...

...a new approach
unlike anything before.

It's a written exam where you,
the second-years,

will be paired with incoming
first-year students.

Paired with first-year students?

Until now, the school

hasn't encouraged deep interaction
between different grade levels.

Which is why,

it has determined that students'
communication skills have been lacking.

B-But we're still competing against
students in our own grade, right?

It just feels kind of off...

Think about it.

When you enter the workforce,
the people you interact with...

...won't all be fellow new graduates.

There may even be situations

where you compete with
first-years or third-years as well.

You're free to partner with
anyone from any first-year class.

The exam will take place two weeks
from now, at the end of the month.

You'll have plenty of time
to find your partner.

Building trust from scratch

with underclassmen
you barely know is difficult.

That's where the OAA app comes in.

The test will cover five subjects,
with a total score of 500 points.

As for the important rules,

there are two areas in which you'll be
competing: as a class and as individuals.

So there really is
an expulsion penalty!

Partnerships are formed
by mutual consent,

and you can't dissolve them
for any reason.

You can already see it, right?

In this exam, students with higher
academic ratings will be chosen first.

Ms. Chabashira, what happens to students
who can't find a partner before the exam?

If you're left unchosen, a pair will be
assigned randomly on the day of the test.

However, you'll be subject to a penalty
of 5% of your total score.

So that means we're screwed
if we don't find a partner...

W-What should we do, Hirata?!

My academic ranking is E!

There's no way any underclassman
would want to pair with me!

I'm not very confident either...

All right, calm down first.

Then let's come up with a plan.

That's right.
There's no need to panic.

Take a look at the exam overview
and the predicted scores...

...based on academic level
sent to the app.

The cutoff for expulsion
is a total of 500 points.

In other words, even a student with
an E ranking can feel safe...

...if they pair up with a student
ranked B or higher.

Just like Horikita said.

If we all work together, we can
get through this exam without a hitch.

What's important is not
to choose a partner carelessly.

If anything happens, be sure
to consult either me or Hirata.

If a student is judged to have
intentionally scored low,

they'll be expelled regardless
of their grade, huh?

Normally, that would be more
than enough as a deterrent.

But for a White Room student,
it's a different story.

If they manage to pair up with me,

they wouldn't hesitate to drag me down
with them and score zero.

In other words,

if I end up choosing someone
from the White Room as my partner,

that alone would be enough
to get me expelled.

Acting Chairman Tsukishiro...

There's no doubt this rule
was created by that man.

Do you need something from me?

You remember our promise
from winter break,

that you and I would compete, right?

So this special exam is
the perfect opportunity, huh?

Yes.

If you win,
I'll join the student council.

But if I win,

you'll have to put the skills you've been
hiding to use for the sake of the class.

I have no problem with that.

That's good.

Then let's move on.

I looked into the first-years
with academic ability of B or higher.

There are 17 in Class A, 13 each in
Classes B and C, and 11 in Class D.

That makes 54 in total.

In our class, there are
only 4 students with an E score,

and even including D,
there are just 12.

The first-years have more
than enough capable students.

The problem is how many of those top
students we can pair with D or E students.

Exactly.

Among them, I think Sudo is the
one we should prioritize.

Hasn't Sudo's academic
ability improved quite a bit?

Academically, yes.

But if you were a first-year
who didn't know him,

would you pair with Sudo or Ike?

True. With his intimidating
build and harsh tone,

Sudo definitely gives off
a scary impression.

Yes.

If things go badly, he might even
struggle just to find a partner.

That's why I want to act immediately.
Will you help me?

That's Ichinose for you.

She's thinking not just about Class B,
but about everyone as a whole.

Class A and Class C will probably
come up with their own strategies too.

We don't know what Ryuen
or Sakayanagi will do yet.

But I think Private Points
will be a key factor.

In other words, a strategy of
buying people off with money.

Yes.

For first-years, points are the most
straightforward form of value.

We should also invest some funds
and secure a certain number of students.

A money-based strategy
would be tough for us,

since our point income is lower.

First, we'll gather intel
at the social event.

Understood.

I'll help you.

Oh? Are you really going
to lend me a hand?

I just want to observe what kind
of strategy you'll use.

I see.

It may have been a bit hasty for me
to call that "cooperation."

She's building relationships
based on mutual trust.

That really is a very
Ichinose-like approach.

But is it really okay to take it slow?

Class B is going to snatch up
all the top students.

Do you really think
we can beat Ichinose

and the others
in a contest of social skills?

I don't think so at all.

Let's go.

Are you sure about this, Suzune?

More than half the students aren't
attending this gathering.

I'll negotiate with
those students instead.

Huh?

Did you notice?

There was a bias among the students
who showed up at the gathering.

A bias?

Not a single student
from Class 1-D attended.

So what?
Does that mean anything?

There are 40 students in a class.

The fact that not even one showed up
clearly reflects the will of the class.

In other words,
Class 1-D already has a leader,

and that person decided
to skip the gathering.

Yes.

If we can negotiate
directly with that leader,

there's no need to bargain
with individuals.

Yo.
Ichinose is the same as ever, huh?

It seems she's prioritizing saving
her classmates and the first-years.

Doesn't she realize what a disadvantage
it is to take in a bunch of weak students?

It's basically the same
as throwing the game.

You Class A people...

Sakayanagi must have
predicted this situation.

That's why she didn't attend.

Well, maybe.

So how do you plan to bring
the top students to your side?

That's all up to the princess.

I'm just following her orders.

Let's hurry.

The Class D students should still be
in their classroom at this hour.

You're pretty late, Suzune.

Ryuen...

Are you here to scout first-years
since you didn't attend the gathering?

The ones gathered in the gym were
all just a bunch of useless idiots, right?

Not even worth looking at.

You've already gone after Class D?!

Relax.

I haven't settled on anyone yet.

You'll just scare the
first-years with that attitude.

I figured if I pressured them a little,
they'd agree to cooperate right away.

You're joking.

Do you really think that kind
of method would be allowed?

Allowed or not doesn't matter.

There's no rule that says forcing someone
to become your partner is forbidden.

It doesn't have
to be written in the rules.

If it becomes a problem,
you'll be the one in trouble.

Then show me where the problem is.

Well, I'm not dumb enough to do
anything that would get me caught.

Let me tell you something interesting.

This year's freshmen are surprisingly
calm for having just started school.

What are you trying to say?

It means there's
a high chance that someone...

...on the school's side
has already told them

how the system works,
at least to some extent.

Well, do your best to keep up.

The first-years might resist us much
more than I expected.

Then let's start negotiating
with them right away!

What the hell is going on?!

This class might be
more troublesome than I thought.

I don't think I can find a partner...

According to the notification, 22 pairs
have been finalized as of this morning.

If I end up drawing a White Room student
as my partner, it's instant expulsion.

For now, I've memorized the faces
and names of all the first-years...

H-Hey!

Some first-years
are coming over here!

My name is Tsubasa Nanase from Class 1-D.

He's from the same class.
This is...

Hosen.

Coming onto the upperclassmen's floor...

That's quite a bold move for new students.

I admire your nerve.

What do you mean,
"admire our nerve"?

Don't act so high and mighty.

Don't get cocky, you first-year brat!

His academic score is E+.

You're just as much of
an idiot as you look.

What did you say?!

Well, this works out.

Looks like this place is crawling
with Class D rejects anyway.

Works for me.

What do you mean by that?

You Class D guys are a bunch of losers.

You can't even form pairs
unless we pick you.

So we'll lend a hand
to useless idiots like you.

You get what I'm saying, right?

In other words,
you want to partner with us?

That's quite a condescending way to ask.

You're the ones who should be asking.

Come on, bow your heads and say,
"Please team up with us."

You bastard!

It seems you're
misunderstanding something.

Our positions are equal.

Equal?

You really don't get it.

If we wanted, we'd have
plenty of ways to handle this.

You don't like trouble, do you?

Sounds like they've realized the special
advantage that only first-years have.

And what kind of methods
would those be?

You already know, don't you?

We can intentionally
get bad test scores.

That's enough already!

If you mess up the exam,
you'll get kicked out of school!

Yeah, if we deliberately throw the exam,
we'll get expelled.

But the penalty for failing to form a pair
before the deadline is a different story.

And the ones who'd be in trouble are you
second-years, who face possible expulsion.

Even if you don't get expelled, are you
really willing to lose Private Points?

Compared to you guys,
that's not such a big loss for us.

Right?

Yes.

It seems we won't receive
Private Points for three months,

but that's at most 240,000 points.

I don't think
it would be a critical issue.

Do you understand the situation now?

Don't get so full of yourself!

Stand down, Sudo.

You understand how
this school works, don't you?

I know...

The only thing big about you
is your height.

Just one little tap was enough?

Bastard!

What the hell are you doing?!

Ishizaki?

They just keep coming one
after another like cockroaches!

Hey!

You're going too far
mocking second-years!

You'd better stop if you don't
want to die, Ishizaki.

W-Why'd you stop me?!

I know all about you.

That this Hosen guy was pretty
well-known back in my hometown.

Y-You know him, Ryuen?

Didn't expect you
to look this dumb, though.

What a coincidence.

I've heard plenty about you too.

Didn't expect the infamous
Ryuen to look so scrawny.

You look just as much like
a musclebound freak as I imagined.

I was planning to beat the hell
out of you next time I saw you,

but you were probably too scared
and hiding from me, right?

You got lucky.

If we'd met, you wouldn't be acting
like such a big shot right now.

We can settle this right here
and now if you want.

I'll pass.

I've got no interest in throwing hands
with a gorilla without any payoff.

You're really fine with letting
a first-year disrespect you like that?

I can settle things anytime.

Wait.
Let's play, Ryuen.

I said I'll pass.

Then...

Try and break free!

Watch this!

Come at me all at once if you want!

Are you out of your mind?!

You!

Hosen, please stop.

The upperclassmen have been concerned

about the surveillance cameras
for a while now.

I've determined there's no benefit
to causing trouble here.

I know that.
I'm just having a little fun.

If you continue this pointless behavior,
I have an idea of my own.

I'm considering bringing that up
and telling everyone here about it.

So you're threatening me, Nanase?

But if you disappoint me,
I won't go easy on you.

I'll take whatever comes my way.

What are you doing, Hosen?

Fights aren't something you
start out with in the open.

This isn't even a fight.

Let's go, Nanase.

That is a wise choice.

If you get on your knees and beg, I might
even pair up with you, Senior Ryuen.

Too bad. I've got no interest
in teaming up with a wild gorilla.

That's a shame.

See you, Horikita.

We apologize for the disturbance.

That probing gaze...

You're the outcast monster

Hidin', hidin', ding-ding-ding

Hidin', hidin'

Hidin', hidin', ding-ding-ding

Tell me what a genius is

The one who creates singularities

Don't you feed the monster

The black outline has gotten bigger again

Everyone is always the king's piece

Hidin', hidin', ding-ding-ding

How does it feel to see into the future?

A monster made of lies

The monster hidin, hidin',
go get him

A twisted, unfair trigger

Hidin', hidin', the maze thoughts

Mysteries swimming in them

Confused by truth and lies

Are we the prey or the hunters?

Hidin', hidin'

Longing for the ordinary

Hidin', hidin'

Yes, you are the outcast monster

Hidin', hidin', ding-ding-ding
