N-Now, now, let's calm down, Ryuko.
Screw you! What the hell is going on?
Were you in cahoots with the mohawk man, too?
I-I dunno what you're talking about.
Keep playing dumb after you see this, I dare you!
See? The two of you are in the back of this picture together!
Th-That's not—
After I got attacked by Mohawk Man,
I asked Mataro to track him down!
The kid's got connections all over town.
And he found pictures of a guy who looked like him, drinking.
It also explains why he brought me over to your place.
I was at death's door, dammit, so tell me what your deal is!
But because of him, the bond between you and Senketsu has grown stronger.
His name is Kinagase Tsumugu.
I confess, he's a member of my organization.
But as a result of you two fighting,
you and Senketsu have become true partners!
Now that Kiryuin Satsuki has her hands on a Kamui,
it was necessary to put you through a trial by fire so you could defeat her.
Now it just sounds like you're using what you know to justify what you did after the fact!
I knew it!
That bastard tried to kill Senketsu!
Who are you people?!
I thought you were fighting against the Kiryuins!
Didn't you say that you'd need Senketsu to do that?
What are those "Life Fiber" things, anyway?!
What was my dad researching?!
Don't get so angry.
Once I'm convinced that you're someone I can trust,
I'll tell you everything.
I'm tired of hearing that excuse from you!
Nudist Beach.
Huh?
We belong to Nudist Beach.
Are you insane?
It's the name of our organization.
Nudist Beach!
Forget it.
It was stupid of me to try to get a straight answer out of you.
Ryuko?
Fine, I get it! I'll keep fighting and keep growing stronger.
That's what you want, right?
But that really is our name.
Oh well, it worked out in the end.
Episode 6
Don't Toy With Me On a Whim
My whole life used to be guided by others
I will shed those days and run barefoot
I might fall, I might make mistakes,
but I will brush away the pain to make way for my tomorrow
The oath my raised hands bring to the world
will be my guiding light
One day it will shine for you too
Until then,
I have no time to spend crying
My burning feelings are hidden no longer
and light the night sky
I feel like I understand why I was born now
With my own hands I will grant
all my wishes
Sewing Club Research Lab
Underground Parking Lot
Okay. Load the Life Fibers into the vault.
Sewing Club
President
Iori Shiro
I wonder what Lady Satsuki is going to do with so many Life Fibers?
Mass production of Goku Uniforms.
What else could they be for?
Life Fibers
But every time we've proposed increasing the number of Two-Star Goku Uniforms to bolster our ranks,
she was the one who shot it down.
Because prioritizing the quantity of club
presidents has a very real risk of lowering the overall quality.
Lady Satsuki was worried about that.
But even so, she decided that we needed to increase the number of club presidents.
I guess this means that Matoi Ryuko's
arrival set things into motion in a big way.
Yeah, even the Anti-Uniform Guerilla showed up the other day.
And the real clincher is the
fact that Lady Satsuki has donned a Kamui herself.
There are two people who can wear a
uniform that's one hundred percent Life Fibers and make it work...
Personally, I can't believe it.
Wow! There's something that not even Information Chairman Inumuta can believe?
It's one unbelievable thing after another here.
That's what makes this academy so fascinating.
Ah, I see.
Personally, I came here because I heard that I'd be able to cut loose.
That Matoi is worthy of my full attention.
Hold on, Sanageyama.
Have you forgotten Lady Satsuki's order that the Elite Four were to do nothing but watch?
Oh? Is that what she said?
It is rather draining, isn't it?
Do try not to overexert yourself, Milady.
Don't worry. This is the path I chose.
Your tea warms me through and through, Soroi.
Thank you, Milady.
Do you think you've snuck up behind me, Sanageyama?
Not at all.
Even if I was only slightly intent on attacking you,
you could easily kill me with just that teacup.
What do you want, then?
Let me fight Matoi.
Why?
Do you even need to ask?
I believe you know perfectly well what happens when I see someone powerful.
Just like three years ago, then?
Three Years Ago
Northern Kanto, Susukigahara
One against five hundred, eh?
This will make it clear as to whether or not Kiryuin Satsuki is worthy to lead us.
I suggest you start practicing your bowing, then.
I'm Sanageyama Uzu, Northern Kanto Gang Leader Alliance Representative!
Northern Kanto Gang Leader

Sanageyama Uzu
(Third Year of Middle School)
You've got guts, Kiryuin, picking a fight with me!
I have no intention of fighting.
Kiryuin Satsuki
(Third Year of Middle School)
I'm telling you to surrender.
Who do you think you're messing with?!
You used a "chi" technique, huh? Impressive.
But that won't work on me!
I can see right through you!
You're mine!
You think you've snuck up behind me?
Come.
I'll provide you with the ultimate stage to unleash your strength.
A stage called Honnouji Academy.
My bamboo sword is itching to test out the skills of this girl
who's infiltrated the stage you've provided for me.
You know the price of failure, I assume?
Not to worry.
I have these eyes. I can't possibly lose.
Nicely blocked.
I'd manage to win in a fight against you now if you were still in middle school.
That was the way you moved three years ago.
I assume you were holding back.
As you wish. See what you can do.
Thanks, I appreciate it.
If I win, treat me to tea or something.
That was rude of me, Soroi.
No, Milady, though I do find it a shame. That was your favorite cup.
Make a fresh pot for me.
Very well, Milady.
Hello, you've reached the office of Honnouji Academy's Student Council President.
Y-Yes, ma'am. One moment, ma'am.
It's Mistress Ragyo.
This is Satsuki.
What's this I hear about you putting on your wedding dress?
Attention, Matoi Ryuko of Second Year, Class A.
I will be waiting in the Kendo Club dojo after school.
–Sanageyama
I Challenge You to a Duel
Sports Gym 1
That wild monkey beat us to the punch.
If I'd gotten permission to make a move, I'd have taken her out first.
Where is Lady Satsuki?
She has stepped out.
She said that this battle wasn't worth watching.
What's that mean?!
So you've come, Matoi.
I was called out by name by one of the Elite Four.
I couldn't run away from that, could I?
I like your spirit!
Let's get right to it!
Three-Star Goku Uniform: Blade Regalia!
Three-Star Goku Uniform:
Blade Regalia
It's not just the Kamui that can transform!
Hey, I'm impressed, Elite! Then I'll do the same!
Life Fiber Synchronize, Kamui Senketsu!
Kamui Senketsu
Why, you!
I can see right through you!
Senketsu! I'm going full-speed!
Understood.
What the— Ow!
Ow! Ow! Ow!
No matter how quickly you move, you can't escape my blade!
Behold! Secret Weapon: Higi Tengantsu!
Secret Weapon: Higi Tengantsu
As long as I have these eyes,
I can anticipate any move my opponent makes!
Say what?!
For every motion a human makes, there is a preparatory motion.
Orbicularis
Oculi
Of the eyes. Of the muscles.
Dorsal Interosseous
Adductor Pollicis
Sanageyama instantly reads all of those preparatory motions
Pectoralis
Major
Gluteus Maximus
and preempts any move his opponent makes.
That is what the Tengantsu does.
And his Goku Uniform succeeds magnificently in amplifying that ability.
Gosh, Mr. Wild Monkey has learned some new tricks, has he?
Is that what Lady Satsuki meant when she said this fight was not worth watching? But—
I didn't hear it that way at all.
Keep it together, Ryuko!
I'd love to, but it's all I can do to deflect all these strikes!
I'm impressed!
But let's see how you handle this!
Shinsoku-Senbonzuki!
I've read all your blocking moves now, too!
Even your Scissor Blade that can slice a Goku
Uniform to pieces is worthless if it can't hit its target!
Come on, are you done already?
That's a little disappointing, don't you think?
That's more like it!
Senketsu. I need you to do me a favor.
I understand. Bet it all on a single roll of the dice, eh?
Ryuko!
You're mine!
Th-They won't come off!
M-My eyes!
Now!
Finishing Move: Fiber Lost!
Fiber Lost
Oh, dear. He went and lost.
It would appear that this is what Lady Satsuki meant.
You did it, Ryuko!
You beat one of the Elite Four already!
You're amazing! And so fast! And so awesome! Yeah!
This isn't over yet!
I can still fight! Come on, Matoi!
Don't be pathetic, Sanageyama!
You have disgraced the Elite Four!
One who relies so much on a single skill will
be brought down by that very same skill, huh?
Back-Alley Clinic
Mankanshoku
Ah, that hits the spot.
That feels good?
Yes, irons are wonderful.
It feels like all the wrinkles in my body melt away,
and my Life Fibers line up one by one.
I'm glad my plan for you to blind Sanageyama worked.
Being cut up was rather painful, I'll have you know.
Sorry about that.
Don't worry about it.
If we hadn't won, I wouldn't be enjoying this pleasant ironing.
True.
And make sure to get behind my lapels, too.
Be thorough about it.
Man, you're one demanding article of clothing, you know that?
Ryuko's mumbling to her uniform again.
I think it's fine.
Who's there?!
Iori, I have a favor to ask you.
How was your mother's mood?
I explained to her why I took out Junketsu.
You needn't worry, Soroi.
I've no time for losers, Sanageyama.
I was overconfident in my eyesight.
Give me another chance!
I'll defeat Matoi for certain next time!
Pathetic.
I don't need subordinates who lack resolve.
I have resolve!
And I'll prove it!
Challenge
Honnoujigahara
Giving someone who was beaten a second chance...
You've gone soft, Kiryuin Satsuki!
Tell me again after your fight just how soft I am, Matoi Ryuko.
Watch closely what happens when you force a man to change.
Three-Star Goku Uniform: Blade Regalia MKII!
Three-Star Goku Uniform:
Blade Regalia MKII
Be careful, Ryuko.
I'm getting a totally different vibe than last time.
Let's work fast, then.
Life Fiber Synchronize, Kamui Senketsu!
Kamui Senketsu
Sorry about this, Senketsu.
I've covered up every last eye you've got!
Now you can't use your Tengantsu!
Look, Ryuko!
His eyes are shut!
Iori, I want you to sew my eyes shut.
But if I did that, you'd lose your Tengantsu!
That's all right.
It was my overconfidence that made me lose.
Unless my eyes are sewn shut, I won't be able to beat Matoi!
This is the resolve of a man who has realized the error of his ways and sacrificed everything!
Know that as you face him, Matoi!
Here I come.
What's this intimidating aura?
Head!
Body!
Wrist!
Oh, crap! These aren't the moves of someone with no eyes!
You're terrified, aren't you, Matoi?
Say what?!
Your breathing. The smell of your sweat.
I can see the inner workings of your mind as clear as day.
I can see it far, far more clearly than I could with my eyes!
Everything about this world!
Shingantsu. The eyes of the mind.
Sealing his eyes shut boosted his affinity with the Goku Uniform.
Head! Body! Wrist!
The Goku Uniform is now Sanageyama's eyes!
His nose! His ears!
Head! Body! Wrist!
He has acquired the Shingantsu, which surpasses even the Tengantsu.
Shingantsu
No one can evade his attacks!
Head! Body! Wrist!
Without your weapon, you have no means of turning the tables this time.
You'd think so, wouldn't you?
What the—
I thought I told you that I could see the entire world.
Did you think your pathetic little trick would work?
Head!
Body! Wrist!

What?!
What? What happened?
The Goku Uniform overheated!
This was no disgrace, Sanageyama.
It was the result of your power outstripping that of the Goku Uniform's.
Yes, ma'am.
Matoi, you got lucky this time.
That was a close call.
Yeah, I guess the Honnouji Elite Four aren't all show.
That dude was seriously tough.
But I can't run away from this.
I have to learn the secret behind Dad's death!
I swapped out the Life Fibers in your Goku Uniform and restitched it.
It should be able to keep up with even your movements now.
You think that you've snuck up behind me, Sanageyama?
Front and behind mean nothing to me now.
Thanks to my eyes being sewn shut,
I can now sense the world in its entirety.
I only came to thank you for giving me a fresh start.
Wait.
We had an agreement. Let's have tea.
Thank you, but I'll pass.
My other senses have become so heightened
that my tongue is sensitive to heat now.
I leave before the school bell rings
The adults around me look to the firmament with grey eyes
Talking about inconsequential things
without ever falling quiet,
they descend the slope
I have no plans
I have no goals
Right now, all warnings
are falling on deaf ears for me
I just want to do my own thing for now
Sorry I'm not cut out to be some perfect honor student
Two buttons on my shirt are open
as I walk through the back alleys
Nothing tempts me in this world
Tonight I've told you my secret,
and you're the only one who knows
