They turned off my music.

You speak Japanese?

Nice to meet you, Karasuma Tadaomi-san.

Toughened tektite glass...

Not nearly enough to keep me in here, I might add.

But since I was the one to propose this arrangement,

I figured I should show good manners and follow their rules.

I personally requested you to be summoned here.

I don't remember having an unknown life form among my acquaintances.

Karasuma-kun, you must cast aside the fetters of common sense.

All of humanity currently faces an unprecedented threat of unthinkable proportions.

The recent disintegration of the Moon—an incident even the Pentagon could not cover up—

was none other than his handiwork.

It was a piece of cake.

I just blew it away. Simple as that.

For what purpose?

As a demonstration.

Thanks to that, my request was honored without the need for lengthy negotiations.

To this day, the UN has been doing everything within its powers to counter him.

Counter me, eh?

He can fly at a maximum speed of Mach 20.

He's even able to operate in outer space.

And although he has the power to reduce the moon to a crescent shape in the blink of an eye,

the source of his energy is unknown.

He is fluent in languages from all over the world,

has a gentle disposition,

and prefers carbohydrates and sugars.

My hobby is reading.

What does a monster like you want from us humans?

I have decided...

that I will destroy the Earth.

It is a trivial task for me.

However, there would be no fun in simply doing it.

So let us make it a game.

I will give you until March of next year.

In other words, approximately twelve months.

And we just need to kill you by then?

That's right.

I will neither run nor hide.

Oh, I have an idea.

I'll become the homeroom teacher of Class 3-E at Kunugigaoka Junior High School in Japan.

You intend to drag junior high schoolers into this?

"There exists a single path along which no one can go except you:

whither does it lead? Do not ask, go along it."

You haven't answered my question.

I am quoting the philosopher Nietzsche.

Sir, I have no intention of disobeying these orders.

However, I do not understand.

At this point, we have no other means of keeping him under control.

We have no choice but to accept his conditions.

I suppose the game has already begun?

Feel free.

It will be quicker to show you than to try to convince you with words.

Allow me to polish you!

You said we have one year, correct?

What are you trying to pull?

Don't get me wrong.

After considering many possibilities, I concluded this should be a fair condition for both sides.

Talk about a unilateral decision!

It's a compromise!

That was quite...

rude to Nietzsche.

Don't underestimate humans.

While I have no intention of doing so...

As I told you,

you cannot kill me by ordinary means.

Now...

I trust you will come to Japan with me, Karasuma Tadaomi-san?

Were you testing me?

You pass.

You're the first person to beat me so soundly at hand-to-hand combat.

Why, you're quite capable for a human as well.

Those students are lucky to have you as their teacher.

And now that I look at you, you're pretty handsome to boot.

Let's do that again.

And, well...

That's basically how I met Karasuma-sensei.

So that's what happened.

I find it a little hard to believe, though.

You sounded pretty different from how we know you.

I was rather uptight back then.

Let's say I hurt everything in my way.

Enough of your made-up stories.

I only met you after you arrived in Japan.

Oh, hi there.

An octopus...

Yeah, there's no way Korosensei would be that cool.

I know, right?

Why do you agree on that?!

Okay, how about this one?

Frozen since prehistoric times,

I was discovered by the American military, and...

Oh, imagine me as having Brad Pitt's voice.

Like I said, stop making things up.

Really?
