Angel Beats! (エンジェルビーツ!)

Reflection Room 1

They finally let us go...

My neck hurts after sleeping on that hard floor for so long.

Weren't we supposed to have the advantage after taking down Angel?

Why are you topless?

What the hell's with those guys?

Under First Contact Bridge - Passageway

Next time they come we'll pay them back like we usually do to Angel.

They're ordinary students so we can't.

Though it's pretty weird.

What is?

Ordinary students have never sent us to the reflection room before.

You mean Angel was keeping them in check?

Maybe.

NPC actions are generally supposed to be models for how we should act, but their emotions are exactly like any normal human.

No matter how weird someone acts, they're supposed to think it's normal.

So basically,

you're saying this shows they can go farther than that?

That would seem to be how the acting student council president is reacting.

He's more bothersome than Angel. She never turned the tables on us.

What should we do, Yurippe?

Let's take him down with sex appeal!

What kind of sex appeal do you have?

What was that? Have you seen these?

I can tell just from your shirt.

You think that's the same as touching them?

Their absolutely exquisite form?

How the hell should I know?!

How shallow-minded.

So, how should we proceed from here?

Anti-Angel Operations Headquarters

Time to decide, huh.

We'll experiment a little.

For now, attend classes and do whatever you want during them.

Just try not to get in the way of the ordinary students.

That's all. Dismissed.

Alright!

Otonashi-kun.

I want you to take this.

Isn't that pretty valuable equipment?

Why are you giving it to me?

Just take it.

Angel won't get in the way anymore.

Last night was proof of that.

Now the problem is the acting student council president.

What will he do if we screw around with the school?

Study Block A — Classroom

I'm so nervous...

Eating snacks in the middle of class...

I ate one!

I just ate one!

I never thought I'd ever eat snacks in class like I want to!

If it gets through, it's mine!

Too bad.

Ouch! Are you serious?

Riichi, chitoi, dora, dora, oyaman.

Dammit! It's all going to Hisako!

Just wild heaven.

Losing to a girl...

What shame!

You lot there, could you be a little quieter?

Ah, sorry about that.

Sensei!

I need the bathroom!

You again?

Go ahead.

What's she doing?

She's playing a student that needs to go to the bathroom every minute.

What an idiot.

What are we going to do?

Just sitting here's fine.

Though, look over there.

Sensei, bathroom!

Yeah, go ahead.

What an idiot.

That's enough!

Here comes Naoi Ayato-sama.

I need the bathroom!

Oh crap!

Let's beat it!

I'll be back.

What are you doing?

It seems you can't hear me.

That's fine.

Take him to the reflection room.

What the hell are you telling me to reflect on?!

You were blatantly sleeping in the middle of class,

and then you threatened an innocent student.

You've got some nerve asking that.

Quite commendable, in a way.

The hell did you say?!

Dammit, are you running away?!

Hey!

I'm right here! Come right at me!

Where do you think you're going?!

Is there really any point in keeping this up?

Main Dining Hall 3rd Floor — Rear

Whoop.

Hey...

Are you hungry?

Not really, it's not even lunch yet.

I see.

The cafeteria has this ridiculously hot Mapo tofu that no one dares order.

When I tried some, it was surprisingly good.

So yeah...

How about I... treat... you...

What are you doing?

Oh okay, let's go!

Main Dining Hall Interior

It really does look scary.

So freaking hot!

I heard you're normally supposed to eat this with rice...

Really?

"Really"? Isn't this way too hot?

Not really. It's just...

Just?

Delicious.

I see.

So it's not that you particularly like hot food, just that Mapo tofu is your favorite food?

What's wrong?

I like Mapo tofu?

Well, even if you ask me...

I never realized it.

Tachibana-san.

What are you doing at this time of day?

Can't you tell?

We're eating.

Eating during breaktime is a violation of school regulations.

I forgot.

That's right, it's a violation of school regulations...

I forgot.

There's no mistaking that she knew.

It's pretty scary what her favorite food can do to her!

Take them.

Dammit!

Simply eating Mapo tofu during breaktime shouldn't warrant this!

And where is this, anyway?

It's like a prison!

I'm sleepy.

I'm going to sleep.

Hey, this isn't the time to do that!

What else can we do?

Doesn't this seem strange to you?

Throwing us into this jailroom?

We're supposed to reflect on our actions, so there's no helping that.

Still!

How can you sleep in this sort of situation?

Good night.

She seriously went to sleep.

What was that sound?

An earthquake?

A battle?

They're here to save—

Oh right!

I had this!

Yuri, we're trapped!

It's broken...

Piece of trash!

...shi-kun?

Otonashi-kun?

Can you hear me?

Otonashi-kun!

I can hear you!

Hear me out and believe what I'm about to tell you, Otonashi-kun.

Listen carefully, Naoi Ayato isn't an NPC.

He has a soul.

He's a human just like us!

No way...

It makes sense.

As the former vice-president, he was supposed to be a paragon of student life.

If that were the case, he should have accepted his life and disappeared.

But I discovered that he'd been beating up ordinary students under the table.

He acted like an exemplary student publicly, but in the shadows he was doing terrible things.

That's how he maintained his balance in this world.

No way...

And when Angel lost her position, he obtained the freedom to do what he wants with this world.

I don't know what his objective is yet, but we've started battle against him.

It's a terrible fight like you've never seen.

He knows we won't harm ordinary students, so he's using them as shields and hostages.

We have no choice but to submit.

It's turned into a one-sided massacre.

Our friends are falling one after another.

I think Angel's been imprisoned somewhere.

We went to the reflection room to find her, but she wasn't there.

I think they put her in a different place, one not so easy to release her from.

And so I thought, maybe you're with her right now?

Otonashi-kun...

Get Angel out.

We need her to stop this terrible fight.

There's no time left.

Come to the grounds.

I'm heading out now too.

Be careful!

Dammit!

Why am I here at a time like this?

Wake up, Tachibana!

Help us!

My friends are in trouble!

That's a strange thing to say.

Aren't we the ones in trouble?
