Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun (2019) s01e09 Episode Script

Iruma's Decision and Hard Work

1
Iruma,
what is your real ambition?
A student's main duty is
to climb the ranks.
Why don't you try to be a Beth?
I shall wait for the day
when you stand by my side, Iruma.
Iruma Suzuki, 14 years old.
One day, he suddenly became the grandson
of the demon Sullivan.
Sullivan dotes on Iruma
and even sends him to school.
But there's one problem.
The human Iruma is studying
in a school for the demons,
Babyls Demon School.
I can't let anyone find out I'm human.
Otherwise, I might get eaten.
-"Iruma's Decision and Hard Work."
-"Iruma's Decision and Hard Work."
Lord Iruma, you want to rank up?
Yes.
At least,
I wish to climb up from Aleph to Beth.
So I was hoping you could
show me how to climb--
Azu?
I thought you had no interest in ranks.
I know that you are not willing
to surrender deep inside.
What? Well…
You have the right to be upset!
Lord Iruma did something new
like making the guardian
of Cutthroat Valley his pet,
yet his rank is immeasurable.
He obviously can't be ranked on
the same scale as other demons.
In the end, he was rated
at the lowest rank, Aleph.
ALEPH, IRUMA
I was upset too!
I can't accept the fact that
you are ranked as an Aleph.
I almost gave up because of
our demotivated, foolish classmates.
But moving up the ranks
is a demon's pride.
Let's climb up the ranks together.
I shall get ready.
Get ready for what?
What else?
To prepare Lord Iruma to rise
to the highest rank, Yod
so that…
he can reign over Babyls!
-What?
-He just said something crazy.
Is another legend about to be born?
I'm sure that Iruma can do it.
One rank up, please.
Go away.
Azu.
I'm totally fine with being a Beth.
But…
No.
This is Lord Iruma we are talking about.
I'm sure that he has some profound
reasons that I could never even fathom.
Please forgive me
for making a decision on your behalf.
Don't worry.
Just don't draw too much attention.
Listen.
Lord Iruma is now preparing
to climb up the rank to Beth.
Make way!
Why Beth?
He suddenly brought the expectation down.
I have a feeling something huge
is about to happen.
I am devi-looking forward to it!
What should I do?
If Iruma rises up to Beth,
we won't be in the same rank anymore.
Well, you could move up too.
It seems interesting.
Let's go, Lord Iruma.
Hold on.
Take her away.
Yes.
Take me away.
Where is this?
This is Babyls's underground gym.
It's so impressive.
I never knew a place like this existed
under our classroom.
It shocked me.
It is so wide!
Connor, Murf!
You can run around all you want down here!
Roll!
They are not running.
She is such a nuisance.
Next.
There is only one way for Lord Iruma
to climb up the rank.
That is to pass with flying colors
on the periodic rank promotion exams
we have in class.
Promotion…
Exams?
The next promotion exam is in a week.
What we will be tested on is
execution cannonball.
EXECUTION CANNONBALL
Execution…
-Coming hall!
-It's "cannonball."
None of your pronunciation is correct!
Execution cannonball
was once used as a test to quell
a sudden outbreak of demons
fighting over their territories.
It was a bloody massacre.
Caiman is used as a weapon.
Once it bites,
it will never let go of its prey
until the prey is torn into pieces.
The one that enters the enemy's castle
will become the winner
after every rival is eliminated.
That is so scary.
Yes.
But due to the number of casualties,
we will just use this ball
instead of caimans.
Ball?
To conserve time and money,
we are now using these territories
marked by lines instead of castles.
That is super effective!
Those who hit by the ball
must go to the outfield!
The outfield?
Bring it up!
Even if you're in the outfield,
you can come back on the court
as soon as you hit someone with the ball.
Valac.
Bring out the cursed puppets
so that we can have enough players.
Okay.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-Cursed.
-We shall start practicing.
-Okay.
Cursed!
It's my turn.
This is just dodgeball!
I figured it out gradually
throughout the game.
Are you okay?
I won't let my guard down anymore!
Then again, the Netherworld
is really laid back once in a while.
If it's just going dodgeball,
I think I can--
Sabnock!
A battle to the death to climb up the rank
is the best fit for me.
Turns out you are here.
We are bored, so let us join the game.
-Let's play together.
-Let's play together.
Harmony is precious. Harmony is prized.
How troublesome.
Guys!
It is such a pleasure!
It is a special skill.
Wind Blade Kill!
WIND BLADE KILL
You are so noisy!
I am not done yet.
Go!
That is impressive.
Have some candies.
It's not easy at all.
I shall wait for you, Iruma.
I can't do it, Ameri.
I won't be able
to climb the ranks like this…
Training is not exactly
going to help me here.
Do you need special training, Lord Iruma?
You need special training, right?
Well…
After all, you are Lord Iruma.
Chances are your rank
will be immeasurable again.
I think it is better to be extra cautious.
But I am afraid
that I might not be a substantial
opponent for your training.
Why don't you
discuss this matter with someone
who has a high ranking?
A high-ranking demon?
Yes.
It is someone you know well, Lord Iruma.
You mean…
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
I see.
Please tell me more
about the special training.
Where did they go?
Iruma is completely surrounded by demons.
The difference in strength between Iruma
and the demons is beyond evident.
There is nothing I could
possibly do now to win.
Therefore,
please give me special training.
Mr. Principal.
Jeez, Iruma.
You are supposed to call me "Grandpa"
outside the school.
Why do we bother coming home
if nothing is different?
I am sorry.
Apparently, it is for special training.
Okay, let's give it a light throw.
Throw the ball in that direction.
I am not sure if I can throw that far.
I am really bad at this.
You will be fine
as long as you do what I say.
Spread your legs a little.
Like this?
Yes.
However, don't exert too much strength
on your right arm.
Okay.
Give it a try.
I imagined
something crazy for the training.
Turns out it is
no different from dodgeball.
Anyway, I need to give it a try.
When you throw the ball,
don't forget to say "Libera."
Libera!
That's great!
Well done! You will annihilate them
without a doubt.
The training is over.
I am full of nothing but doubts!
Don't use magic!
Why?
It's very simple.
Well…
It's your power, Grandpa.
I feel as if I am cheating.
This time,
I hope I can do it on my own.
So I don't want to use magic.
It would be difficult without magic.
So…
I am strengthening your hands instead.
Although
it is only to help you to at least
catch the balls thrown by demons.
This will allow you to have a fair match.
Thank you, Grandpa.
What's wrong?
I am saving that image into my heart.
I need to make sure I lock it up.
Saving? Lock it up?
Thank you, Grandpa.
Devi.
Well, I have to go.
No problem.
If you want to train without using magic,
I know a better teacher.
I shall now take over as your teacher.
Mr. Opera?
I shall leave the rest to you.
All the best!
Thank you, Grandpa.
Okay, let's begin.
This is…
Too sudden!
I will keep going.
Wait…
A minute!
Wait a minute!
Mr. Opera!
As I thought, you are indeed
a true master at evading, Lord Iruma.
But if you're serious
about climbing up the rank,
you must not just evade,
you have to hit your opponents.
Hit my opponents?
Yes.
Please figure out a way to catch the ball.
I feel sorry for you,
but I have to keep going.
But…
Wait! Hold on!
I feel really sorry for you.
I don't see that in your expression!
I have to do it
so you don't get hurt in the real match.
If you wish to move up the ranks,
it will require harsher guidance.
Please forgive me.
That's all for today.
Yes.
Catch the ball.
Catch the ball?
Lord Iruma.
How was the training?
Please let me help you out
because we're friends.
You don't have to reply.
It's an honor if you just
"dread" my message.
Go! Go! Irumachi!
Devi, devi! Go, go!
-Do you really have to disturb me here?
-Devi, devi! Go, go!
Azu, Clara.
Thank you.
By the way,
I have to report to Ameri.
Lord Iruma.
All the best!
Today, we shall continue
with the practice.
Yes.
Whenever the ball
is about to hit your face,
I will stop the ball like this.
Try not to evade the ball
and catch it instead.
Yes.
I am sorry. My body has a mind of its own!
Listen carefully.
Make sure you watch the ball and focus.
Here we go, Lord Iruma.
Yes.
Please catch the ball.
Focus on the ball.
Jump over and catch the ball.
No way I can do it!
-Lord Iruma!
-Irumachi!
That's the spirit!
Strengthen your lower body and focus!
Stay focused.
Yes.
SWEET TIME MEMORY
As Iruma has begun the special training,
I guess we'll have to put
the reading of the forbidden book on hold.
We don't have a choice.
I shall wait until his exam is over.
-MY HELLISH TRAINING BEGINS!
-OKAY!
Do your best
Iruma.
You need to strengthen those muscles.
Lord Iruma.
All the best!
All the best, Irumachi!
Lift me up!
Stop disturbing him.
Hurry!
Catch…
Catch…
Catch…
Lord Iruma.
Please have some water.
Thank you, Azu.
Eat more.
Your appetite is good as usual.
Lord Iruma.
Your hands
are full of wounds.
The ball actually hit my hands
half of the time now!
Also, I am finally able to recognize
the different moods of Mr. Opera.
If his ears are flat,
he's not in a good mood.
If his ears are pointed up,
it means he's in a good mood.
I see.
Catch…
Catch…
Irumachi is amazing.
Demons usually get bored easily.
Lord Iruma…
He is a freak.
Okay, let's continue training.
Take that!
Looks like he worked really hard today.
So, how was the training?
Do you think he can make it in time?
He still has yet to catch
the ball even once.
What? Is he going to be okay?
Will he be able to do it?
However,
he seems to have fun every day.
I see.
Just a little bit more.
Tomorrow is the promotion exam.
We are running out of time.
Just a little bit more.
-Lord Iruma.
-Irumachi!
Just a little bit more.
Another one, please!
I'm going to throw the ball!
Focus strength on the lower body.
Focus.
Keep your eyes on the ball!
Keep my eyes
on the ball!
Stay focused!
Keep my eyes on the ball!
Got it!
You are awesome!
Touch, touch! Devi touch!
Lord Iruma, your hands are badly injured.
It's okay.
Do you want to do it too, Azu?
Is that so?
Devi touch!
Devi touch!
-Devi touch!
-Let's continue
before you forget the feeling.
When we are done,
I shall prepare the finest meal for you.
Yes.
It looks like he's ready.
That's right.
Definitely.
NEXT!
EXECUTION CANNONBALL
Bumper.
Ameri.
I can't read the forbidden books
for you at the moment.
I am sorry.
I really want to know
the development of the story.
But
I hope that he can go
to his special training.
By the way, in the forbidden book,
there's a scene where the female lead
shows her sincerity to the other party.
I shall use the same method
to show him my sincerity.
Iruma!
About the reading…
You are still very angry, right?
That move is a failure.
NEXT EPISODE
Iruma, all the best!
Grandpa is so happy!
I will record all your serious looks
during the competition.
I will use the most advanced machine
to record 666k high resolution video.
When you get married,
I will play the video at your wedding
as a surprise.
