My Instant Death Ability Is Overpowered (2024) s01e03 Episode Script

[opening theme]
[upbeat music]
Oh, hey, I can see
the city of Hanabusa!
It looks like a Japanese city.
- [Yogiri sighs]
- Come on, perk up a little!
Don't you wanna hone
your skills any?
There's no point. I just
kill enemies one after another.
Huh?
Demons and thieves
were coming after us,
so I did what I had to do.
Let me know about those.
Carelessly walking around
is pretty dumb.
I'm very aware of
that fact, thank you.
But if you always get tired
after using your ability,
then maybe your power
can only be used
a limited number of times.
Getting tired
lets me use it even more.
As much as I want.
There's seriously no limit?!
[upbeat music]
Yoo-hoo!
Oh!
Seems like instead
of castle walls,
they put up a barrier!
[Tomochika and Mokomoko gasp]
[Tomochika] Whoa!
A high-rise hotel!
Miss Celestina told me
about this place.
This will be our base
for a while.
I'm so down! [giggles]
[Tomochika squeals]
This is pretty swanky.
I knew it!
It's you, Miss Dannoura!
Oh?
That's wonderful.
I'm glad you're safe.
Tachibana? Why are you here?
Everyone should still be
in that primeval forest.
The truth is, I move
separately from them.
There's no need for me to work
with those who
level up inefficiently.
Oh, if you say so.
Who is this strange woman?
You're being awfully
friendly with Yuuki.
What?
Lay off there, Erika.
These guys here
are my classmates.
If you say so, Yuuki
Master, you are so noble!
Your spirit is so tolerant
even when dealing
with rude people!
Very befitting
of a true champion!
Hey, Takatou, who
are these weird people?
Your guess is as good as mine.
[laughs] I have yet
to introduce you.
These girls are my bodyguards,
specially chosen from
among all of my servants.
Ladies, introduce yourselves.
Hi, I'm Erika, fifth rank.
Honestly, I have no desire
to give my name to you two,
but I have no choice
since Yuuki said I had to.
Hi, greetings to you!
My name is Stephanie,
fourth rank!
But I don't wanna talk to you
unless my master orders
me to do so, though!
Welcome, classmates.
I'm Chelsey, third rank.
Miss, will you die, please?
Yeah, I'm Euphemia,
second rank.
Frankly, I find you unsightly,
so would you please
do me a favor
and disappear from my sight?
My name is Riza and I serve as
the captain of the bodyguards.
Don't be so arrogant as to think
of him as onlya classmate.
Would you girls
quit smacking us
with the hostility already?!
Oh, my apologies. I'm no
good at being harsh with girls.
All of you keep quiet, okay?
[bodyguards] Yes, sir.
Tachibana was one
of the students
that got brought in on the
bus with us, wasn't he?
I don't know what kind
of power he acquired,
but he sure is confident.
Uh, actually,
Tachibana has always been
self-assured like this.
He's been popular with
the girls for a while
and always so cocky.
Sounds like high school is
actually
a much more interesting place
than I thought it would be.
That's right! Meeting you
here is some sort of destiny.
Will you become my mistress?
[bodyguards growl]
[Tomochika sputters]
I am perhaps too hasty in
my asking you such a thing,
or maybe you are concerned
about your friend, Takatou.
I don't usually accept men
as a rule,
but since he's a classmate,
I can take him in as
some sort of servant.
It's come all the way back
to not being funny anymore.
I have no urge to kill him
when he lacks this
much common sense.
[Tomochika] What is it that
makes you
so confident in yourself?
[chuckles] I am what you
would call a Dominator,
the strongest class.
I control all. So that is why.
I don't think I've ever
seen you look so smug before,
but you still haven't had
much training
in honing your new Gift,
have you?
All our classmates are
still training themselves
back in the forest.
You're just so taken
by me, you can't help it!
- [Tomochika] What?
- It's okay.
I'll tell you a little
about myself.
It was a victory party
at the town I arrived in
after clearing my first mission.
[Ootori] Hey, do you
have a moment, Tachibana?
[Tachibana] Hmm?
Ootori, what do you need?
I'd like to give you
a bit of advice.
The Gift I was given
is Consultant,
my role is to provide
good counsel
in order to resolve
any problems.
That's great and all, but
why are you giving me counsel?
Since you are a dominator,
everyone is looking to avoid
coming in contact with you.
What are you saying?
You don't have the time to
squabble amongst your peers.
If no Sages arise
from our classmates,
everyone will be made
into livestock.
[glass thuds]
What you should do
first of all, Tachibana,
is purchase a large amount
of the weakest level-1 servants.
If the servants are
victorious in battle,
the defeated enemies
can become my servants
and their experience
becomes mine as well.
But that sort of thing
wasn't listed
as part of my abilities.
A consultant's abilities
also include
knowing some of the hidden
specs of how Gifts work.
Why are you making an effort
to tell me all this?
We need various approaches
in order to bring forth a Sage.
Everyone using the same
methods is just suicide.
Giving advice to those
who seem to be promising
raises our chances of success.
This is my survival strategy.
I pray for your good fortune.
So that's why!
There is way too much
effective support personnel
existing in this world!
I get it.
Even while you're
building up the number
of weak subordinates like this,
you're raising your
level too, right?
Yes! My level's increasing by
leaps and bounds by doing this.
What do you think,
Miss Dannoura?
- [bodyguards growling]
- Wanna rethink my offer?
Nothing in me would want that!
It doesn't have to happen
now, just think it over.
Well, let's head out, girls.
I'm still a little
ticked off about all this.
Well then, I say we
should just leave him be.
But I will tell you this:
If you join forces with him,
you may be safer
than you are with me.
[growls] You're gonna
make me mad saying that.
What? I'm not sure why.
Sorry.
[light playful music]
[upbeat rock music]
[wind blows harshly]
This is the Aggressor,
The Darkness.
It doesn't stand
a chance against me.
How much longer can we stay
here like this, I wonder?
Perhaps until the boy
awakens from his slumber.
We're already on day three.
I know, how about you go
and check in on him for us?
I would rather not!
[Tomochika] Huh?
There's no telling
what will happen
if I enter that room without
permission!
Training all the time
is exhausting.
I'm gonna get some air.
What? What's that black stuff?
[car horns honking]
[crowd yelling indistinctly]
Yee-haw! An invite
from the Immortal Corps!
If you're run over and killed,
you are a third-class zombie!
You should volunteer!
- Huh?
- Oh dearie!
I think these
are some very bad people.
They're riddled with
the stench of death.
What is up with this world?
This is totally weird!
People are dying far too easily.
[Mokomoko] Hey, didn't you say
you wanted to take
a look outside?
Not anymore, thank you.
Man, pretty rooms
in a high-class hotel
sure are super cozy.
You can't just lay there and
spend the rest of your days
waiting for all
of this to go away!
- And furthermore
- [Tomochika grunts]
There's someone secretly
watching us here
with hostile intent,
but I can't see them.
What do we do
if we can't see them?
I know, I'll try to wake
him up with a phone call.
Wow, what a very
refreshingly reliant idea.
[phone rings]
[Asaka] Yogiri! Yogiri?
[Nikori barks]
Huh?
Morning, Nikori.
[Nikori barks]
Oh good, you're already up.
Your breakfast is ready.
'Kay, I'm coming.
[birds chirping]
[phone rings]
All right,
I'm on my way there.
[door clicks]
[Yogiri yawns]
Hm?
[eerie music]
[Yogiri sighs]
[mysterious music]
[power shimmering]
[blade clatters]
[muffled] It's me.
Get in here right now!
There was something here.
[Tomochika] Huh?
The hostility was
aimed just at you.
But why come after me?
Huh?
[Yogiri] I'm gonna
use your phone.
Hello? A woman collapsed
in the fifth floor hallway.
What are you talking about?
Wouldn't it be weird
for me not to notice
a dead body while in the hall?
A dead body?! What?
[wind blows]
[alarm sounds]
- Huh?
Erika's signals disappeared.
- [Stephanie] Master!
- Huh?
Takatou, to this person
is definitely one
of Tachibana's girls.
She's the bodyguard named Erika.
Not good. I guess we'll
have to fight that guy.
Maybe it's best we leave.
Right, I'll hurry and
get my things together.
Miss Dannoura,
you seem pretty calm for
a situation like this.
To be honest, I'm pretty
freaked out about it,
but I guess I'm used to it.
Everyone must die
one of these days!
The daughter of a warrior
family wouldn't get upset
over something
so trivial as this.
I'm not that
spiritually enlightened!
[upbeat rock music]
[electricity fizzles]
Ugh, what a disappointment.
Very impressive, Master!
Level 100 demons stand
no chance against you!
[bug] Hmph! Who are you cretins?
Huh? Oh, let's go with
Flare Bomb.
[bomb explodes]
Contract.
[bug] M-master
[Stephanie] Heal!
[limbs cracking]
What floor do
these ruins go to?
[bug] It goes to floor 150.
Get more allies
as you progress down
to the lower layers.
[bug] As you wish, master.
[Stephanie sighs]
So what is going
on with Erika?
She should be on standby
at the hotel.
I'll check the log.
Hmm. This makes no sense.
She was attacked from behind?
It's hard to imagine that
Erika, being an assassin,
would be taken by surprise.
Why was Erika even in the
hallway in the first place?
If I may make a speculation?
Go ahead.
Maybe she was trying
to please you somehow
by bringing you that
female classmate of yours.
Or perhaps she was
trying to get rid of her
as she thought
her unworthy of you.
"Get rid of her"?
Aren't servants
supposed to act in a way
as to not put their
master at a disadvantage?
It's possible that
what each of us thought
was good for the other
did not exactly align
with your own wishes, Master.
If Erika has done
something extraneous,
miss Dannoura might have run.
I'll have Riza and
Chelsey go and secure her.
[wind howling]
[wind blows]
[energy charging]
No matter what I do,
nothing works.
My high-speed revival
is much faster
than its crumbling
upon being touched.
Nevertheless,
The Darkness doesn't seem
to be taking any damage at all.
[tense electronic music]
[Riza] Oh, my. Where are
you going in such a hurry?
[Riza laughs]
What do you want with us?
Something like this.
[ice crackles]
[Tomochika yelps]
Yuuki instructed us to bring
Miss Dannoura back to him,
and I so want to please Master.
If you come quietly like a
good girl, we won't hurt you.
[ice crumbles]
Huh?
Wow, this is
pretty weakly made.
That sucker is cold and hard!
I tried to kill the icicle.
It looks like I can do it.
What do you mean
"kill the icicle"?
[Riza laughs nervously]
Why didn't that spell work?!
[ice crackles]
[Tomochika yelps]
[power shimmering]
[ice shatters]
[Riza yelps]
Magic wand, die!
[wand crunches and clatters]
As you can see, I can kill
anything with just my thoughts.
Try anything and I'll kill you.
Now, will you answer
my questions honestly?
Fine. I'll do as you say.
Can you use magic
without your wand?
I am what's known
as a Wandmaster.
Therefore, I can only use
the magic inside the wand.
Since you're a wand user,
that must mean you have
more than the one, right?
This is the
only other one I have.
[Riza moans]
[Tomochika] Why'd you
bother hiding it there?!
And you! You're staring
pretty hard, Mister!
Sorry, I didn't know it
was something you could hide.
You were ordered
to capture Miss Dannoura
by Tachibana, weren't you?
What about the rest?
Come now. What do you think?
They were all given the
same order as me, of course.
[Tomochika gasps]
[dramatic music]
[Tomochika pants]
Whoa, Miss Dannoura!
Finally, the gift of
the Dannoura way
has started to manifest!
[Tomochika] What is this?
A doll?!
I thought I would be
able to manage these two
all on my own.
Oh, well. [laughs]
[power shimmering]
[body clatters]
They move a lot better
than I thought they would.
Everyone, beat that woman
half to death for me, please.
[Yogiri grunts]
[power shimmering]
[dolls clatter]
[Chelsey gasps]
Oh no, Morurun,
Jennifer, Jackie, my dolls!
Come on, move, please! [gasps]
[door creaks]
Stop it! That's enough!
I beg you,
don't do anything mean!
It's like, somehow,
we're the ones
who are seen as being
the intensely bad people.
[Chelsey] I'm so sorry!
[Tachibana gasps]
What is it, Master?
What seems to be the trouble?
Riza has been killed.
[Stephanie] No way!
It seems Chelsey lost
the will to fight
and gave them our intel.
That guy says
he can kill anything
with just a mere thought.
Your thoughts?
It sounds highly
implausible, Master.
I'll lead them to a place
that will be easier to
observe them while attacking.
[insects buzzing]
[Tomochika screams]
Can't you scream a little
more cutely than that,
my dear ancestor?
- Oh yeah, cockroa-
- Don't you say it!
I feel like just that word
will fill my brain with them!
[Mokomoko] Tachibana
has come to observe us
by using all the bugs
under his control!
Can you do something
about the cockatiels?
By cockatiel,
you mean these things?
I can kill them, but they'll
just plop down on our heads.
Okay, scratch that idea.
Are you sure?
'Cause even these little things
may be able to kill
a full-grown human.
Whoa, whoa,
what are you on about?
It's not like these things
can really kill people, right?
Maybe if a huge amount of them
got stuffed into your mouth,
they could suffocate you.
[Tomochika squeaks]
[cockroaches] Wah! Wah! Wah!
[Tomochika screams]
Yuuki Tachibana!
You royally messed up and
have completely pissed me off!
This is awful! At this rate,
I believe all living things
in this world
have potential to become
our mortal enemies.
[chuckles] Your ability
can't be used
if you're surrounded.
Maybe they'll give up if they
keep getting chased around.
Please, Master.
There's no need to make an enemy
of a mysterious and
unknown powerful force.
Why should I have to be
the one made to retreat?
That wouldn't be the action
of a Dominator, now, would it?
[Euphemia sighs]
Those who run pathetically
are the ones who have made
an enemy of a Dominator.
Yogiri Takatou! Kill him.
[tense music]
[electricity buzzes]
[cockroaches mumbling]
[Tomochika] Um, Takatou?
It's like the bugs are-
[Yogiri] It's like they're
watching our every move,
waiting for any chance
to kill us.
I'm sure we're gonna die
an awful death
with them swarming us like this.
I'll kill Tachibana, then.
Huh?
If this goes
how I think it will,
it won't be that hard to do.
[intense dramatic music]
The source of this
desire to kill
Got him.
Yuuki Tachibana, die.
[power shimmering]
[Stephanie gasps]
[body thuds]
No! Was that
an unexpected dud?
The cockatiels are still
alive and doing well!
Everything's okay.
We got to this place
because my abilities work.
You mean it works even if you
don't know where the target is?
If he can reach us
to try and kill,
then we can reach him to kill.
This world isn't so kind as
to allow one-sided attacks.
That's a bogus line that
only you can say, Takatou!
And these bugs seem to
be getting more active!
[cockroaches cheering]
I wonder if they were
released from his mind control
since Tachibana is dead.
No, no, no! That's not good,
not one single bit!
[gasps]
- Let's run.
You're not gonna kill them?
Don't you think maybe
it's bad to kill something
just because it's
a bit unpleasant?
[Tomochika] Arguments about
fairness
are not what I wanna hear
in a situation like this!
Heal, heal, heal! [sobs]
Master! [cries]
We have finally been released
from this man's control.
I will be taking my leave.
Do you know what you'll do?
I don't know.
Goodbye.
[footsteps clicking]
Where's this light coming from?
Something's off.
[wind blows]
[gasps] What in
the world is this?
[mysterious music]
[Euphemia gasps]
Oh, where did you emerge from?
I don't think you can survive
an attack from The Darkness.
There's nothing that can be
done about it and I'm at a loss,
so I'll hear what
you have to say to me.
[Euphemia gasps]
Now Charm.
[Lain hisses]
I am Lain the Sage,
an Origin Blood.
Become my follower and tell
me everything you know.
We should probably head
back to the royal capital now.
[crowd yelling nearby]
- Huh?
What's going on?
I feel like this isn't over yet.
[intense music]
[zombies groaning]
[Masayuki] Sorry this
is coming outta nowhere,
but the zombie party's
startin' now!
Zombie survivors, have a good
time with whoever you want!
[Masayuki laughs]
What the?
[zombies growling]
I thought this other
world would be a fantasy,
but now we're
in zombie panic mode!
[ending theme]

You're Watching This Video"
