Eiyuu Kyoushitsu (Classroom for Heroes)

If you fail to stop me, the world will come to an end, Great Hero.

So this is all I've got?

Enough with the cheap moves.

Let's settle things once and for all.

You and me, going all out.

Very well.

I couldn't ask for more.

Dragon Series, Fifth Sword.

Satanic power at full force.

Be reduced to ashes!

Dragon Annihilator!

It's finally over...

Good morning!

Oh, you're here.

Good morning!

Good morning!

Oh! They're greeting each other!

Is that what friends do?!

Good morning!

Morning. You're here early.

I see! This is what normal people do!

All right!

Starting today, I'm going to make friends and live life as an ordinary person!

Episode 1

Earnest

Okay! Time to make some friends!

Good morning!

Good morning!

Good morning!

Good morning!

Good morning! Good morning!

Pretty funny student we've got here.

Good morning! Good morning!

Do you think he's a new transfer?

Whoa, he's coming this way!

I'm Blade!

Ah, yes.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

I'm Blade!

You sure are a weirdo.

I'm Kassim.

My name's Clay. Nice to meet you.

I'm Yessica.

Oh, um... I'm Claire.

I see!

I'm here to make some friends!

If you don't mind, would you like to be friends with us?

I did it!

I've got four whole friends now!

If this keeps up, I could make ten friends...

No, hold that thought!

Even 100 friends doesn't sound so far-fetched!

If you want to make 100 friends, you'll have to befriend the whole student body.

What are all of you up to?

Why are you making a commotion in the middle of the hallway?

Oh, no!

You are all students at the prestigious Rosewood Academy.

That's Earnest Flaming.

You should strive to always follow the rules and behave in an orderly manner.

She's the top student in this school, so everyone calls her the Empress.

I'm Blade!

Who are you?

I haven't seen you around here.

U-Um, Lady Earnest...

No need for the title!

Well, it seems Blade just transferred into the school...

A new student?

This academy only admits those who aspire to be heroes who protect this world!

There's no way they'd permit such a late admission!

I don't really care about being a hero.

I'm just here to make some friends.

You don't really care?!

What halfhearted resolve you have!

Oh, almost forgot!

I need to go to the headmaster's office!

What?!

Can you show me the way to the headmaster's office?

Go!

Why'd it have to be me?

This is Earnest Flaming.

I'm here with a brat who lost his way and was on the verge of tears.

You may enter.

Pardon me.

Wh-What brings you here, Sir?!

I'm here!

Y-You idiot!

Don't you have any idea who you stand before?!

Sure I do.

Please forgive his rudeness, Your Majesty the King!

I've heard all about you from the previous headmaster, Miss Earnest.

It seems you have quite the excellent record.

O-Oh, no. I have a long way to go...

Excuse me, "previous headmaster"?

Indeed.

As of today, I will be acting as the new headmaster here.

Your Majesty is?!

Why, I hear Your Majesty is quite the accomplished warrior!

To be instructed by Your Majesty himself!

I find myself lacking words to express my joy at the sheer honor!

I could never have imagined I would get a chance to speak with Your Majesty!

How can I put this?

Oh, I really am so truly struck with awe!

That's enough.

Huh?

You may take your leave.

I must speak with him in private.

What's the deal with that boy?!

He's so friendly with His Majesty!

I don't get it!

Hey! Thanks to you, I've gotten on her bad side!

What could be the reason?

Don't give me that!

And what are you doing here, anyway?!

You see, Blade...

I want you to regain your powers as a hero.

I want to be an ordinary person!

Normal as can be!

The students here are really something.

They should serve well in your rehabilitation.

You're not listening, old man.

I plan on making sweeping changes to the curriculum, as well.

My predecessor had a bit of a lenient streak.

We're trying to nurture heroes here.

Great heroes like you—

There's no need for that!

The Demon King's gone now.

I received reports of the Great Hero and the Demon King trading blows,

resulting in mutual annihilation of their powers.

That's right.

But I have faith!

The Great Hero's powers will be resurrected!

And that's because you are the Great Hero!

This old man's gone off the deep end.

Hey!

Why are you here?

This is the advanced class!

I took the exam for the lower classes, but I was told to come here.

Did you bribe someone?!

What?

Did you gain back-door admission into this school?!

You must have cheated somehow to be placed straight into the advanced class!

Besides, this isn't the kind of academy that admits halfhearted people like you!

Don't call me halfhearted!

I'm dead serious.

About making 100 friends here.

What?

I'm Blade!

Let's be friends!

What?

I'm Blade!

Wh-What do you want?

I'm Blade!

Let's be friends!

I'm Blade!

I'm Blade!

Let's be friends!

Listen to me!

I'm listening.

D-Don't pat my head!

Whoa.

The instructor has asked everyone to assemble.

I'll be right there.

I'm Blade!

He's asking for your name.

Is that a command?

She's always like this.

I'm Blade!

You need to listen when people are talking.

Sophie.

I see!

I'm Blade!

Nice to meet you!

Instructor!

Wh-What is it?

I'd like to test the transfer student's ability.

Well, that wasn't in today's lesson plan...

You don't mind, right?

Go ahead...

That's made of enchanted metal, right?

And what if it is?

Just so you know,

simply slicing through it is something all the advanced students can do.

Your job is to prove yourself to everyone here.

If you can't, I'll have you admit to your illicit entry and leave the academy.

The advanced class is on a whole different level.

How many levels are we talking?

Huh? W-Well... two...

No, three!

It's three whole levels different!

I see. Three levels, huh?

Then, Second Sword should do.

Wait, the shape of his fighting spirit...

Dragon Series?!

Dragon Series? Wait!

Dragon Eater!

Cough.

Hmm... Meh.

Blade.

Who in the world... are you?

I-I'm ordinary!
