All men have a dream.
To go to and from school with a cute girl.
Even better if that girl is someone you have a crush on.
I never thought I, Kuromine Asahi, would see such a day.
But... But I...
I finally made it!
To this Shangri-La!
Shangri-La?
Oh, you know, I'm just so stoked that my dream came true.
And to top it off, we live near the same station.
This totally means we're—
Whoa! Shiragami!
Kuromine-kun, what are you going on about?
N-Nothing.
Yeah, nothing.
Well, I don't really get it,
but I'm happy you live near me, too.
R-Really?
Well, I never thought I'd get to go home this way.
With a friend, I mean.
Friend?
Friend...
Friends!
Why?!
Why didn't I... Why didn't I...
Kuromine-kun?
Yes,
my crush, Shiragami Youko, and I
have become friends!
I'll Keep This Secret!
I never thought things would turn out like this.
I discovered her secret in our classroom after school,
just as I was about confess to her.
That she's actually a vampire.
And that if her father finds out I know,
she'll have to leave this school.
I decided to keep it a secret in order to protect her, but...
Is something wrong, Kuromine-kun?
Ah, just...
To be honest, I'm really worried about whether or not I can keep your secret...
Er, wait, no! It's no problem at all!
I'll try really hard!
Crap, I keep blurting out the truth...
You don't have to try that hard.
My school life ended when you discovered my secret, anyway.
Yet you became my friend,
and you said you'd help protect my secret.
So, well... I can't really explain it,
but I guess what I'm saying is that I trust you, Kuromine-kun.
So you don't have to try so hard.
I'll live with however things turn out.
Oops, my fangs were showing.
Okay! I feel pumped now!
I'll try my best!
Huh?
Were you even listening to me?
Huh? Of course I was.
Really?
So, how'd it go?
Your confession to Shiragami-san.
Ah, well, how do I put it...
That's our leaky basket.
You confessed and got rejected, didn't you?
Didn't you?
N-No, it's nothing like that.
Shiragami and I, uh...
We became friends.
What?
Friends?
Man, I'm tired.
Sorry for the wait.
Koumoto-sensei, with all due respect,
I must present you with a remonstration.
You arrived in the classroom a minute and 34 seconds after class began.
As an instructor, is that acceptable?
Look, I'm sorry, Aizawa.
You can lecture me later.
Do you really understand?
You're making class start even later.
F-For that, I apologize.
I wasn't thinking.
The class rep is such a stiff.
Y-Yeah, she is.
That's the Iron Lady for you.
Who are you calling "Iron Lady"?
My name is Aizawa Nagisa.
Kuromine Asahi, ever since I caught sight of you yesterday,
something's been bothering me.
It was last summer...
Kuromine Asahi, I'll get right to the point.
If you wouldn't mind, I'd like you to stop staring at me.
I'm completely uninterested in you.
Completely Uninterested
It's irrational of you to continue pursuing a battle you have no chance of winning.
Irrational
No chance
But failure in a reckless battle opens the path to a good battle.
A new path
You ought to begin looking for a new path immediately.
Hang in there, Asahi!
The wounds aren't that deep!
Are you okay?
Some time passed after that,
and Kuromine Asahi seemed to have discovered a new path.
He must have taken my advice.
That makes me happy.
That's fine.
That's fine, but...
Something is still bothering me.
The class rep's glaring daggers at me!
No, I must be calm.
I know, Kuromine Asahi, this isn't your fault.
But I feel the need to at least lecture you.
To ask you: were you really attracted to me?
Really?
Come to think of it,
I rejected him before he could convey his message to me.
But if I was mistaken about him having feelings for me...
There's no mistake that he was looking at me.
If it's not because he was attracted, then why?
What was he looking at?
Surely not...
Kuromine Asahi!
C-Class Rep...
Sorry, this is about what happened in class, isn't it?
I'll be more focused from now on.
I don't care about that.
It's about last summer.
Tell me the truth about what happened.
Huh? The truth? About what?
Enough! Just tell me clearly!
I mean... about... you know... were you really, well, um...
You're not being very clear yourself.
No, I mean, in other words,
I'm asking you if you really liked me!
Huh?
Uh, yes...
R-Really?
What am I doing, asking such a thing?!
What's going on? Lovers' quarrel?
I thought the class rep rejected Asahi.
But isn't she making a move on him?
No!
Absolutely not!
I hate men like him!
Who would love a man who goes straight to another girl right after being rejected?!
I-I'm sorry.
Give him a break, Class Rep!
Asahi's going through a lot now.
Yes, yes.
Give him some space.
He got friend zoned.
N-No!
Oh... She hates me that much, huh?
That's not it.
That's not it!
One, two, three, four...
Everyone else is gone, right, Kuromine-kun?
Yeah, Shiragami.
Now we don't have to worry about anyone seeing.
No one will interfere.
Finally...
Finally, I can have lunch!
Oh, so you've been eating lunch after school?
I can't let people see my fangs.
Wait, was it your stomach that was growling all afternoon?
K-Kuromine-kun!
Sorry.
A-Anyway!
Time to eat!
Is something wrong, Kuromine-kun?
Why are you staring at my lunch?
You can't have any!
Not even you, Kuromine-kun!
Not my last shrimp!
No, that's not it.
I thought since you're a vampire, you'd be sucking blood for lunch.
I guess not.
Kuromine-kun, that's sexual harassment.
Huh? Why?!
Sucking blood? As a meal, no less?
I'm not a slut!
I'm not sure I get it, but sorry.
No, I'm sorry, too.
Of course, I can't expect people to know common-sense stuff about vampires.
Common-sense stuff about vampires?
Like, when you suck someone's blood,
it means you're pledging your love for them.
It's like a kiss.
Like, in a wedding, you suck your partner's blood instead of kissing.
Oh, really?
Okay, enough of that.
I'm going to have my last shrimp.
I want her to suck my blood!
Thanks for the meal.
I-It's not like I still want more or anything.
S-Seriously, I never said I wanted dessert!
Cream puffs!
Why are they on my desk?
You prepared them for me, didn't you, Kuromine-kun?
Thanks so much!
No, it wasn't me...
Thank you!
Hot!
Tabasco!
Habañeros!
Chili peppers!
Extra-hot?!
This one's weirdly heavy... And some of them are moving!
Shiragami, your wings!
Watch your wings!
W-Water!
Right, I should...
You again, Kuromine Asahi?
What are you doing here so la—
Sh-She saw her!
A-Aizawa-san...
W-Wings...
I have to do something, or Shiragami will...
C-Class Rep, this isn't what you think.
It's, well... It's just not what you think!
Please, forget everything you just saw.
Kuromine-kun, it's fine. It doesn't matter now.
Please, Class Rep!
Shiragami Youko.
Which planet are you from?!
I wonder what this cream puff tastes like... Sh-Shiragami, you shouldn't...
Pant... Pant...
A tiny Class Rep popped out of her!
Aizawa-san?
It's you, isn't it?
D-Don't move!
Don't you see this gun?
What's this? A tentacle?
It's so cute!
Don't touch it!
This planet is a theater of our operation.
State your affiliation and planet of origin!
You are an alien, too, are you not?
No, I'm a vampire.
Shiragami! You just told her!
Vampire?
Wait, Class Rep, you were talking about planets and aliens just now.
Are you actually an alien?
What's up with this surreal scene?
A depressed vampire and alien...
Vampire
Alien
How could I? How could I reveal my true identity?
I'm so stupid!
Why did I just give it away?
So you're an alien, right, Class Rep?
Wh-Whatever are you talking about?
Yeah, nothing you say will convince me when you look like that.
Very well.
This is my secret.
I, Aizawa Nagisa, am actually an alien.
And I am an External Unit.
External Unit?
Is that like a robot?
Yes.
I'm currently conducting an undercover investigation of this planet.
Speaking of which, while I was on duty yesterday,
I saw you two walking home together.
Remain calm.
I am not so foolish as to reveal another's secrets.
Really?
You were just spilling all your own secrets, though.
I'll keep your secret,
but will you be okay, Aizawa-san?
Not to worry.
I have been commanded not to reveal myself to the humans,
but I was never told not to reveal myself to vampires.
You're splitting hairs.
On that note, Kuromine Asahi,
I must make a request to you, human.
I regret that I will have to remove some of your memories.
Not to worry. It is only your memories regarding my secret.
You can do that?
I apologize, but you wear your emotions on your sleeve.
You cannot keep a secret.
Hey, relax, it'll be over in a second.
I'll wipe everything out just like that.
You're trying to erase something more precious than my memory, aren't you?!
Why did you dodge?
That's just a hammer!
Do not worry.
This is a cutting-edge hamm— Memory Erasure Apparatus created on my planet.
I heard that slip of the tongue!
U-Um...
Of course. Shiragami Youko,
is it not a problem for your identity to be discovered, as well?
Well, yeah, but...
How about this?
If you so desire,
I can also remove knowledge of your secret from Kuromine Asahi's memories.
I would like your opinion as well, Kuromine Asahi.
I was careless!
How could I so easily allow my target to escape me?
Hey, Aizawa-san!
Wait, Kuromine Asahi!
No running in the halls!
You're totally running, too!
Just trust me!
The manga on this planet show that a strong impact to the head can remove memories!
You're just making it even harder for me to trust you!
Please, listen to me!
If word of this gets out, I will be court-martialed,
and then, to set an example, I will receive...
a public spanking!
No way!
No way, Class Rep!
Yeah, that's embarrassing,
but why do I have to get hit with a hammer so that you won't get spanked?
But I'm seventeen this year!
I'm seventeen!
Not my problem!
Then don't mind me.
We still have not settled Shiragami Youko's situation!
Shiragami?
You can't keep a secret.
But with this... With this Memory Erasure Apparatus,
I can erase your memory of her!
Really?
No, wait! Time out!
Let me think about it.
You truly are easy to read.
You really do like Shiragami Youko.
And more than that, you desire to keep Shiragami Youko's secret.
Uh, Class Rep, would that erase everything about Shiragami Youko?
Or just everything about her secret?
Yeah, just everything about her secret.
That might give Shiragami peace of mind.
Try it, Class Rep.
To be honest, I'm a little— rather, I'm really scared.
Please, make it as painless as possible!
And if you can do it in one go, erase your secret, too.
Thank you.
And I'm sorry.
I promise to erase only those memories about our secrets.
No!
Shiragami...
Why?
Wait, this positioning is really bad!
Kuromine-kun, you idiot!
I told you, I don't mind if you know my secret.
I really should have had to quit school the moment you found out my secret.
I told you that you don't have to try so hard to help protect my secret.
Yet you try so hard,
and you even try to get yourself hurt to forget my secret.
I don't want to go that far just to protect my secret.
More than that, you need to realize how grateful I am, you idiot!
Um, ah... I...
Sorry, Shiragami.
No, I didn't mean for you to do that.
I'm sorry, too.
No, I'm really sorry, too.
No, really, I'm sorry.
I'm defeated.
Kuromine Asahi, let's pretend this matter about your memories never happened.
I'll try trusting you a little, as well.
Class Rep...
Wait, defeated? By what?
By how big that was of Shiragami Youko.
Yes, how big of her.
This is not a frivolous emotion.
Besides, Kuromine Asahi's feelings for Shiragami Youko are...
And in all likelihood, Shiragami Youko's feelings for Kuromine Asahi are also...
Man, what a relief.
Hey, I know all about it.
About what?
You used to like Aizawa-san, didn't you?
There were rumors about it last year.
I'm rooting for you.
I think you have a chance.
Believe it or not, I'm pretty sensitive about relationship stuff.
In what way are you sensitive, Shiragami?
And which one of us is the idiot?
What? Why?
I'm not an idiot.
No, you are an idiot.
You are a complete idiot.
What? Me? An idiot?
What? What did I do wrong?
Never mind her being a vampire,
is there any way to fix how dense she is?
I see, so the feeling isn't exactly mutual.
But...
It seems I will become good friends with these two.
Tell me, what did I do wrong?
Please? Come on, Kuromine-kun!
I hope I got a good story.
Just you wait, my cute Asahi-chan.
Actually I Am Quiz!
Can you guess?
Time for the Actually I Am Quiz!
Now you, Class Rep?
This is from my planet. It is a cutting-edge...
Basin, right?
Incorrect.
Do you know the correct use of this?
Let's see...
Oh, I know! It's one of those things that fall on people's heads—
I don't think you even see that on TV anymore.
I give up.
It is an Emergency-Avoidance Compact Stealth Craft for when you need to get away unnoticed.
Next Episode: "Beware Childhood Friends!"
So it's a basin.
No!
It's an Emergency-Avoidance Compact Stealth Craft!
