Kill la Kill (キルラキル)

Honnouji Academy

In 1933, the National Socialist German Workers' Party came to power.

Second Year Class A

The year of Chancellor Hitler's birth.

Eventually, Germany's postwar democracy gave rise to fascism.

Excuse me, we're in the middle of a lesson.

I'm on official business!

Y-Yes, Sir!

I'm Gamagoori Ira, Disciplinary Committee Chairman!

Disciplinary Committee Chairman

Gamagoori Ira

Students of Second Year Class A!

We have determined that there is

someone among you who intends to harm Honnouji Academy!

Any excuses will fall on deaf ears! This person will be punished immediately!

You seriously think a tear gas bomb would help you escape?!

Damn it!

One-Star Goku Uniform

So, you actually did steal the One-Star Goku Uniform.

What's the matter? Try it on!

Amazing!

It's as if power is flooding into both my body and spirit!

T-This light, it's—

M-My body is moving incredibly fast!

Of course! That's the power of the Goku Uniform!

All right, then! Eat this!

My uniform, however... is a Three-Star!

An attack from a lowly One-Star won't even touch me!

What were you planning, stealing a Goku Uniform?!

You must be a spy from Kobe!

It's such a waste on the likes of you!

You aren't cut out for a Goku Uniform.

Take it off!

Listen up, students of Honnouji Academy!

As long as Gamagoori Ira draws breath, this academy's rules will stand firm!

The ironclad rules created by Student Council President Kiryuin Satsuki!

Lady Satsuki...

Students!

Salute our student council president, Kiryuin Satsuki!

Student Council President

Kiryuin Satsuki

Kiryuin Satsuki

Contradiction is truth! These are the truths of the world!

You will surrender to the truth, pigs in human clothing!

Episode 1 If Only I Had Thorns Like a Thistle

Whoa, sorry!

Piece of cake!

I coulda sworn I grabbed her wallet!

You're pretty talented, stealing a lemon someone else had just started eating.

Are you that desperate for an indirect kiss?

Bitch, don't try to be all witty! I've had my first kiss already!

Then I guess you don't have any regrets.

That's my line, lady. Come on out, guys!

You've insulted the great Lightning Speed Mataro.

Honnou Town Blind Alley is my turf. This is my neighborhood!

It's a feared hangout for drifters and a dead end for the living.

If you want to go home in one piece, drop your wallet and leave.

Come on, what's with the anachronistic street punk routine?

I thought this town was weird,

but I guess the people who live here are nuts, too.

Fine then.

It's my policy to finish what I start.

Come at me.

Get her!

Please excuse us!

What the hell?

We're really weak against strong people!

It's our only strength.

I just can't bring myself to beat up somebody who's bowing.

I guess I'll let it slide this time.

Hey!

Out shaking people down at the crack of dawn again, I see!

Oh no! It's my big sister!

You can't get away!

How many times do I have to tell you to stop mugging people and get your butt to school?!

I'm sorry! I'm going, I'm going, I'm going!

Dumbass, I ain't got time for no compulsory education! No way, bitch!

That little jerk!

Oh, I'm sorry! Are you—

Oh, no! I'm late, I'm late!

Let me on, please let me on!

Let me on, please let me on!

I'm on, I got on!

What on earth

is wrong with these people?

Honnouji Academy

"Here hangs a naked pig who dared to defy Honnouji Academy."

"As such, justice was dealt," eh?

The city's dangerous, but the school is just as bad, I see.

Interesting.

Something tells me I'll find some leads here.

This is Matoi Ryuko, who has transferred to our class today.

Matoi Ryuko

Ryuko! Ryuko!

Over here, over here! This desk is free!

Oh.

Suzuki used to sit here, but he was

You know each other?

I wouldn't say that we're acquaintances exactly...

killed by the student council yesterday, so it's open now!

Well, that's how Mankanshoku is. That'll be your seat, then.

I can't believe you're gonna sit next to me!

Want it? Don't want it? Want it? Don't want it?

I'm Mankanshoku Mako!

Mankanshoku Mako

Well, I'll be! You're a transfer student, huh? Nice to meet you!

The boy you said was killed by the student council, was that him out front?

Right, right!

That kinda thing happens all the time, so don't worry about it!

All right, let's begin the lesson.

With the Nazi rise to power, Germany became—

She's already asleep!

Ryuko!

Aw, why'd you dodge?!

Isn't it normal to dodge something that comes flying at you from out of nowhere?

I was just giving my new bestie a hug!

Bestie?

We sit together, so let's try to get along, okay?

That reminds me, do you play guitar?

Play it! Come on, play! I'll sing!

I sing a song of skipping town... I sing a song of going to ground...

Calm down!

I want to ask you something.

Who's the top dog at this school?

Why, that's—

Watch out, Ryuko! Bow! Bow!

Is he a bigshot?

Yeah, he's a Three-Star!

Three-Star?

Yep.

That's Disciplinary Committee Chairman,

Gamagoori Ira, one of the Four Elites of the Student Council.

Compared to the Starless peasant students like us,

he's a super elite who's three whole ranks above us!

Starless?

Right. Our school uniforms have amazing powers,

and it's just incredible when you wear one.

Starless

They give you superhuman power.

They're called Goku Uniforms and they run from One-Star to Three.

One-Star

Student Council President Kiryuin Satsuki

Two-Star

Three-Star

bestows Goku Uniforms to students based on their ability.

Student Council President

Long story short, they're awesome! Got all that?

So in other words, the top dog here is the student council president?

Right, right!

Ah, speak of the devil! That's Lady Satsuki there!

Kiryuin Satsuki

So, I hear you're the queen bee here.

I have a question for you.

Bitch! How dare you?

A huge—

Pair of scissors?

Half a scissors?

It's a huge scissor!

That's right.

This is half of a giant pair of scissors.

I'm looking for the owner of the other half.

I noticed that you were shocked to see this just now, Ma'am.

You've seen it before, haven't you?

You've seen my Scissor Blade!

And what if I have?

With such an attitude...

You're the Woman with the Scissor Blade, aren't you?!

Tek

Ken

Fun

Sai

Fukuroda, eh?

Yes, Ma'am. Boxing Club Captain Fukuroda Takaharu.

Fukuroda Takaharu

Fukuroda Takaharu

Fukuroda Takaharu

Fukuroda Takaharu

Permit me to finish off this insolent wench!

She is yours.

Stand aside, you bastards!

Your glove is made of iron?

Don't you even know your uniforms?

You're not even wearing a uniform!

The only uniform a boxer needs are gloves and trunks!

As well as the athleticism-augmenting

Athleticism-Augmenting Two-Star Goku Uniform

Two-Star Goku Uniform given to me by Lady Satsuki!

Imbue even ordinary gloves

with the power of a Goku Uniform,

and they'll be as strong as steel!

I don't know what you're talking about,

but if they're made of iron, I guess I won't be pulling any punches either.
