My Instant Death Ability Is Overpowered (2024) s01e09 Episode Script

It's Like a Class Full of People Who Only Want to Save Themselves

[curious music]
[footsteps]
[portal warbles]
Aoi.
[Aoi] This is all because
you summoned that monster here!
This is the end of the world!
Um.
[Aoi] The whole world!
I didn't ask to
be involved
Dammit
He's not at all human!
[voice echoing]
Not even a living thing.
[Aoi's knife] She's been
like this for a while.
I figured there'd be a
change if you were here, but
[Sion] So this is what happened
when she encountered
Yogiri Takatou.
Did you happen to learn
anything about him on your own?
This is intel from Sage
candidate Daimon Hanakawa.
[Hanakawa grunts]
I'm positive if I tell
you about him,
you'll immediately kill me!
Though he looks like a pure
and childlike young man,
he'll easily kill and then
say, "Oh wow, that's strange.
Didn't know I could
kill someone like this.
Good to know."
Like it's absolutely nothing!
What happened to
that idiotic look
of utter desperation
written all over your face
that said you would do
absolutely anything to survive?
You happened to
notice that, did you?
I cannot believe it's
possible to kill someone
just by wishing to do so.
[Hanakawa] But!
I understand.
Killing that Yogiri Takatou
guy is top priority for me.
How can you, though?
I'm able to get
help from someone
that's even stronger
than Master.
[Hanakawa] What is that?
[Lute] The key to the seal.
[Hanakawa] What are
you talking about?
Master's younger sister.
Her acts were sometimes
overly chaotic.
So when Master had the
chance, she was sealed away.
If that sort of person exists,
then I suspect you
won't need me.
[Hanakawa groans]
Not so fast. I don't know
this Takatou guy very well,
and that's why I have to
have you along with me.
No, well, it would be
super embarrassing
if someone saw us and
thought we were together!
In that case, I can
cast a recognition block.
Uh? Please increase our
friendship level before that!
No! Stop pulling!
I mean, what even is this?
Just as I was used to doing
the bidding of some tomboy,
I'm stuck being a slave
to a shota?
Or is this one of those
twists where you'll say,
actually I'm a girl
or something?
In that case, I might
be on board with that!
[opening theme]
[king] If you can traverse
the underworld beneath us
and defeat the Dark God,
the Sages have said it will
be quite an achievement,
but I happen to believe that
you all lack what is necessary.
However, this is our
pact with the Sages.
At the very least,
we'll prepare a base.
Also, remember this:
The royal family has the ability
to cause the Gift to weaken.
Oh, and your fingers
should reattach eventually.
[dramatic music]
[students murmuring]
What now?
Hey!
[Jiyuna] How is she here?
[Romiko] Tomochii! You're alive!
[student 1] Tomo!
[student 2] Dannoura!
Someone acknowledge
Takatou here as well!
[Romiko] We were all
so worried about you!
[Jiyuna] We sure were!
[train horn blares]
[dramatic music]
[Divine King] It never
used to be this big.
Welcome back, Your Highness.
It is a great honor.
I am Holaris, the
archbishop of this church.
Allow me to serve you.
Honestly, my first thought
was just to go home,
but everything has changed
here, and I'm a little unsure.
[Holaris] I understand.
This way.
We are all overjoyed at
your return to the palace.
However, we thought
Your Highness
might still be suppressing
the Dark God in the Canyon.
The Dark God in
the canyon is dead.
In that case, what about
the sealing key then?
What is the sealing key?
It doesn't seem as if
you are feigning ignorance.
[item hums]
[Divine King gasps]
[Yazaki] The decision
to leave you guys behind
wasn't wrong, I don't think.
[Yogiri] I don't really care.
To be honest,
I'm upset about it,
but complaining now
will just irritate me.
Or are you saying it's bad
that we're here in the capital?
Both really.
[Sora] Well, since
we have so few allies
in this other world,
shouldn't we be helping each
other out as much as possible?
- Who's
- Miss Sora Akino.
She's a famous idol at
school and entertainment.
But I'm not sure if
we can trust them.
Well, yes. But that's
because if you went through
what they did,
you are the type of person
who would undoubtedly
seek revenge upon those
- who had left you for dead.
- Hm.
I thought you said
Yazaki was the leader.
Pretty sure he was.
[upbeat music]
[Yuugo] How's it fair the girls
can move around both floors
when us boys are banned
from the second floor?
Hey, Yuugo, he's acting like
he doesn't know who we are.
[Yogiri] Not acting.
Who are you guys?
Are you serious?
I used to talk to you all the
time back in the other world.
You always looked like you
were half asleep in class.
We're fellow class losers.
Nice to meet you.
Except we don't know
if he's actually a loser.
[Yuugo] But Takatou's
class is an insect hunter.
You can only kill bugs, right?
Yeah, what are
your abilities then?
You are looking at
someone in Cook class.
And I'm a Reader.
I can read any kind
of given text.
[knock on door]
Hm?
Who's that?
Oh, it's Fukai.
Takatou, can I talk
to you for a sec?
Huh, what the hell
is an "Eroge Master"?
Can you lean in any further?
It's a class name.
Eroge Master Shinya Ushio.
Eroge Meister Keiichi Munakata.
Eroge Maniac Mitsuo Yatate.
The three of them together
like that
are called the
Three Eroge Nobles.
[depressing stinger]
[Tomochika] And?
And each of their Gift abilities
seem to be a reflection
of their unique characters.
So what are they?
Ushio can stop time,
Munakata: x-ray vision.
Yatate: tentacles.
Tentacles?
[knock on door]
Huh?
Dannoura,
I want to talk to you
about your traveling partner.
Okay
So what is it, huh?
Lord Okakushi.
[ominous music]
Just who are you?
A Death God
So there is no reason to
leave everything to you,
the "Taker of Souls," anymore.
[Yogiri] I know you can't say
much, but why did you come here?
[Seiichi laughs]
Up to this point,
even though I was told
to keep tabs on you
in the other world,
I was never allowed
to get close to you
or look you directly in the
eye when we were at school.
[flesh squelching]
[all gasp]
This is an eye that can
detect the supernatural.
However, I lost that
power when I got here.
[Yogiri] Is that all
you wanted to say?
I know you haven't unleashed
your ultimate power here yet.
Uh
[door opens, closes]
He really is a freak,
isn't he?
- Want this?
- Hell no, man!
[knock on door]
Takatou, can we talk?
Uh, sure.
[Ryouko]
I am truly very sorry!
Hey, you need to apologize too!
[Carol] Why? Why should I?
[angry grunt] The first gate
is opened, you idiot!
That means no matter
where we are,
he can kill us instantly
if we happen
to get on his bad side.
I wouldn't do that
for no reason.
But the way you phrased that
really kind of irritated me.
Oh no!
It's so funny to see
Ryouko freaking out
when she's normally so calm.
Okay, so I take it you two
know about me, don't you?
Yep, I'm from the agency,
and Ryouko, the Institute.
Fukai with the long hair
who just left your room,
is from the Cult.
We've been dispatched to
keep an eye on you, Takatou.
I thought I had
surveillance on me,
but I never imagined
there'd be three of you.
By the way, since it
was just the two of you
who came here together,
did you two do it yet?
What?! We didn't do
anything like that, geez!
Now that we've met each other,
tell me about what's going on.
[crow caws]
[Euphemia] I wonder what you're
doing now, Big Sister Theo.
[woman] I've been searching
for you forever.
[Euphemia gasps]
And you are the last.
I will become the heir to the
Origin Bloods with you gone.
[Euphemia gasps]
[Euphemia] Please stop!
[shouting]
[Euphemia gasps]
[power pops]
[Euphemia gasps]
[Euphemia] Are these
Mistress Lain's memories?
In other words, Miss Akino
uses her skill called "vow"
and the classmates
she uses them on
aren't allowed to
use their gifts anymore?
Yeah, that's about right.
And as long as they weren't
stopping time,
it wasn't a big deal.
But we weren't certain whether
or not x-ray vision
was being used.
I sure don't wanna
be in the same place
as a guy like that.
And Yazaki couldn't manage
to get us together.
So Miss Akino became
the new de facto leader.
If you break the vow,
do you die or something?
Bingo! Speaking of death,
why did you two meet
back up with us anyway?
I wanted to get a hold of
that Sion the Sage person.
I thought she
might know something
about how to get back home.
Oh, I guess that'd be
the normal thing to do.
Oh yeah. I thought that
we had no other choice
but to become a Sage here.
Say, you think we
could find a way home
with everyone else's help?
Probably not.
I think our only choice
now is a great achievement.
Or else it'll just be chaos.
For now then,
we can consider ourselves
on the same side, right?
What? I thought
we already were.
Ah. I will do
anything you need.
[light playful music]
[upbeat rock music]
[gentle music]
[Tomochika]
That doesn't look like it's
from a parallel world at all.
[Carol] It's almost
the exact same outfit
you wore at your concert.
But this has a decent
defense value.
What are you wearing?
I'm a ninja, of course.
[Tomochika] Where's the stealth?
You stand out like a sore thumb!
[Ryouko] I apologize.
[traditional Japanese music]
I hope you don't
take great offense
and think I'm here to goof off
by wearing a
stupid outfit like this.
My silly little outfit
probably makes it look like
I'm goofing off the most.
[Tomochika] How did
you get all these anyway?
Runa Harufuji, the dressmaker,
made all of these.
It's her specialty after all.
Look at you all fired up and
getting ready all on your own.
[Tomochika]
Oh, come on, you guys.
I don't look like this because
I want to either, you know?
Is that outfit because
of your class ability,
the Self-centered Blacksmith?
Uh, wait, are you
talking about me?
It's like a class full of people
only interested
in saving themselves.
That makes us seem so awful.
[Sora] I see the
guide has arrived.
Huh?
Good to see you again,
Miss Dannoura.
[Tomochika] Mr. Rick?!
[Yogiri] Why are you here,
Mr. David?
The royals have the
ability to seal things.
My power, for example,
can suppress a low-rank
demonic creature.
We also want to measure our
capabilities while down here.
Are you able to suppress
our power too?
Of course. If that's the case,
then perhaps I should guide you
to where the
demonic creatures are.
[Ryouko grunts]
[Carol grunts]
[monsters growl]
Looks like there
was no reason for me
to be down here with you all.
Mr. Rick, I didn't realize
you were the prince of
the Kingdom of Manii.
[Rick laughs]
Sorry, I didn't
tell you earlier.
Apologies for interrupting
your little chitchat here,
but are you ready to
go now, Miss Dannoura?
Yes, are you, Miss Akino?
Seems it'll be a cinch
with Carol and Miss Ninomiya,
so I may not even
need to fight at all.
[Tomochika] Do you think
that martial art attacks
will work on this thing?
[skeleton rattling]
Since it has a human form,
it should be fine.
Ah, right.
[Tomochika grunts]
[upbeat music]
- I need something heavy!
- You got it!
Now long!
[group gasps]
She's strong.
[creature snarls]
[Yogiri] Avoid the line
of murderous intent.
Put the end of the sword
along that line and wait.
The enemy will stab themselves.
I'll keep doing this.
And finish them off.
Wow, he's not too bad.
Well now, with
moves like those,
I wouldn't mind having you
in my battle formation.
How in the world do you do that?
You move like an amateur, but
easily avoid the enemy attacks
and still manage to hit them
and deal a fatal blow?!
What about my bug-killing power?
Want to see my gift?
I'm good.
[whimsical music]
[Hanakawa] No!
This isn't what I was
thinking about at all!
What's wrong with you?
Don't you like women?
You can't just
crossdress like that
and think everything is okay.
If you want to pretend
to be a femboy,
then you must start
from the ground up
with your personality!
[Lute sighs]
[Hanakawa groans]
What a huge crowd gathering.
I wonder if there's a festival.
[Hanakawa]
Ugh, you're like a bumpkin
that doesn't know a thing.
Hey, ever since you learned
you wouldn't be killed,
you've been getting
too carried away.
I can sense the
younger sister we seek
is somewhere under the ground
near where we are right now.
And since I don't know where the
entrance to the underworld is,
I suppose we'll gather
intel first.
In that case, good master,
ye old tavern
is the place one must go!
[Euphemia] At last,
I am Origin Blood's
[girl] Wait, hold on!
[horse galloping]
[horse neighs]
Calm yourself.
[girl panting]
Thank you!
That silly old horse won't
listen to a word I say.
[Euphemia gasps]
[regal music]
[girl gasps]
What?
My name is Euphemia,
young madam.
Hello, I'm um
Oh! You know, I don't
think I even have a name.
Hmm, what should I pick?
I'll think up something random.
[Euphemia] Is this
Risley!
My name will be Risley
from now on.
[Lute] So this is my
first time at a tavern.
How exactly are we
supposed to gather intel?
How about we eavesdrop on
the conversations around us?
For real?
You were so confident
when you said to come here
that I thought you would
have some sort of plan.
- Excuse me, miss.
- Hm?
Is there some sort
of festival today?
Why yes, there is.
[Hanakawa spurts]
Apparently, the Sage
candidates have already reached
the fifth level of the
underworld only a few days
after starting their conquest.
So everybody in town's
out celebrating.
Are you serious?!
[Lute chuckles]
Hm?!
[Lute] What's wrong?
[Hanakawa] It'd been bad
if those guys found us.
Can't we do
something about this?
Let me think here.
[Hanakawa groans]
[power shimmers]
I used a recognition blocker
so that they won't be
able to notice us in here.
[Hanakawa laughs]
If we won't be noticed,
then we can draw a bit closer.
[Ushio] What's that
Takatou loser's problem?
He just popped up halfway
through,
snatched up all the hot girls
we have, then freaking left.
I envy his game level
every single night.
Even though we've done
way more than that guy.
Why aren't we getting
all the attention?
Maybe because we're called
The Three Eroge Nobles.
Evening, you three are
all Sage candidates, right?
Oh, hey, maybe heroes
do get attention.
Sure do!
Yeah, what?
[warning beeping]
[all] Ayaka Shinohara?
I've caught you now.
[blow thuds]
Ushio!
Awesome, are we fighting?
Yeah, get him!
Stop it!
[customers shouting]
[Mitsuo screams]
Oh god, please stop beating him!
[Ayaka] Sorry,
but this is for revenge!
Ushio, hit her back!
Defend yourself!
[punches slam]
[Hanakawa groans]
[punches slam]
[Ayaka sighs]
[Ayaka] Now then, Munakata.
[Keiichi] Oh crap.
[Ayaka] From this point on,
I'm going to kill
one of you each day.
Enjoy shaking in your
boots while you still can.
Let everyone in the class know.
Can you do that for me at least?
[patrons scream, voices overlap]
I'm going to do that
until there's no one left.
[students scream]
That was Miss Ayaka.
From what I saw from
that display earlier,
she was pretty pissed off
being left behind as
dragon bait for her class.
Ah, but if that's the case,
that means I may also
be a target of hers.
[dramatic music]
[Sion] Did something happen?
[Hanakawa yelps]
What?
I guess my recognition
blocker isn't working.
Good evening.
You're Mr. Hanakawa,
isn't that right?
I am Sion the Sage, the one
that brought you to this land.
Do you remember me?
Yes, well, nice to see you.
I shall take my leave now.
[awkward chuckle]
[Sion] To where?
We are researching
the underworld.
So I thought we'd
leave this place
and visit another shop for
a little more idle gossip.
If that's what you want,
then I will tell you
all about it.
[Hanakawa groans]
Just give up on escaping.
Nothing good will come
if you keep on offending
her like that.
I would like to ask you
about your famous classmate,
Mr. Yogiri Takatou.
[Hanakawa groans, gulps]
[Sion] This is the first
I've heard of him
having the ability to
sense murderous intent.
[Lute] What will you do
with him once you have him?
I think immediately disposing
of him is the wisest course
to prevent trouble
in the future.
But I also think I could
make use of him in many ways.
I'll take care
of Yogiri Takatou.
I can't imagine what someone
like the Dark Lord's underling
can possibly do.
Come again?
If you intend to fight,
please do it in a place
where I won't get.
Ah, what's that hand doing?
You're no longer of any
use to me, Mr. Hanakawa.
So
I'm dead!
[cream sloshes]
What's the big idea?!
[Hanakawa groans]
Well, that's interesting.
My heat ray seems
to have transformed
into yummy whipped cream.
I beg you,
please wait a moment.
You told us that you'd tell us
more about the underworld,
didn't you?
Yes, I completely
forgot about that.
What exactly is it that
you would like to know?
Where might the entrance
to the underworld be?
[Sion] If you mean in this city,
then you can frequently
catch sight of the entrance.
In fact, try purchasing
a ticket from the tavern.
What's that mean, huh?
I may be swinging
at the hornet's nest,
but are you done with me now?
I took the time to tell
you about the underworld,
so if I killed you now,
that would be a complete waste.
That lady's bonafide crazy.
I have no idea what
she's thinking at all.
Wow, who could possibly
wanna see someone like me
just dripping in mounds
of luscious whipped cream?
[Tomochika] Hey, Takatou, what
is it you do during the day?
What? Not all that much.
Gaming, reading books.
Ugh, and I'm out there slaying
and slaughtering
magical creatures.
So how is the Underworld
invasion going?
We've reached the
edge of the fifth level.
So I guess we'll start
with the sixth tomorrow.
There's a Dark God
on the seventh level.
Do you think it'll be this easy?
At this rate, we're barely gonna
make the one month deadline.
Even if we do fail,
if that Sion person ends up
showing up, then it's okay.
And what about
those eroge idiots?
It seems that
Mr. Ushio was killed.
Mr. Munakata says
Miss Shinozaki did it.
And according to him,
she swore she would come
and kill us one by one
for revenge.
But I thought Miss Shinozaki
was dead, wasn't she?
Yeah, she was.
[wind blowing]
[Youichi] The sage
candidates have arrived
at the sixth level
of the Underworld.
It's only a matter of time
before they reach the seventh.
Since it's far
too easy for them,
let's throw a little
wrench in their plans.
Yes, but defeating the Dark God
should not be all
that simple on its own.
And what about Yogiri Takatou?
I haven't made up
my mind just yet.
[knock on door]
Who in the world is that?
Don't worry. It's just a
door-to-door transporter.
[Haruto] Please pardon
my intrusion.
You must be the Sage
candidate, Haruto Ootori.
How did you know
about this place?
I gave my problem-solving
skill a try.
Oh, of course.
Good for you.
But why are you in my room?
I'm afraid that
we need more time.
I'm asking you if we
can get an extension
on the time limit,
my beautiful liege.
The time limit is built
as a means to encourage you.
So as long as everyone
is giving their best,
I don't see any problem
with that at all.
I'm grateful, thanks.
[Sion] However, there's no fun
in extending the deadline
without any compensation for me.
[Haruto gasps]
So here's what I'm asking for.
Could you please get
rid of your classmate,
Mr. Yogiri Takatou, for me?
You want me to kill him?
[Sion laughs]
[Haruto laughs]
[ending theme]
[Tomochika] "A Woman
from the Past Appeared.
Tomochika is Shocked
to Her Core"
