01x03 - Cyberkinesis Output Test

[bunniefuu]

[Emergency Exit]

It's so dark and scary.

How can a spirit medium be so scared?

Stop chatting and focus
on finding the signal device.

Seriously, can't the GPS be more accurate?

What's wrong?

A dead...body...

Look at that.

That must be the device
we are looking for.

Noise detected.
Everyone, get ready to engage!

Yes, sir!

A child's Ghost Account?

Scanning.

Database entry is...

[Warning]
Oh, no!

Everyone, run! This guy is Autophobia...

His username is "Autophobia K".

[Dead Account, Autophobia K]
His personal data is unknown.

Currently, he's the number one enemy
of the Society of Spirit Mediums.

And Enishiro...

He's also the Ghost Account
that k*lled your sister.

[Five Hours After the Fight with Kasubata]

Azure... flames.

That's his ability, "Ghost Fire".

A cursed flame that sucks the life
out of anyone who touches it.

Tears of Blood.
It's the same as Akari's symptoms.

Wait, if that's the case...

Do I have the same ability
as the m*rder*r?

Why?

That's my question.

Did I fight Kasubata
with such a dangerous power?

I'm glad no one died.

But why am I unharmed?

It's like a blowfish that can't be
poisoned by its own poison, right?

Anyway, too much happened
in the heat of the moment.

My brain is overwhelmed. I need to go home
and sort out my thoughts.

How can you go home, you dog-sh*t b*stard?

My apologies. I accidentally swore.

[Miden Academy, Class 1-B]

Kasubata and... Who are you?

Class 1-B.

They are my students.
They will be your classmates from now on.

Let's all get along, okay?

Hey!

You finally understand
what kind of person you are, don't you?

What?

Classmates?

There's no way we can be classmates
with a guy who shoots deadly flames!

But I can't let him out of my sight...

Hey, I told you to get along.

What a crappy situation.

Excuse me.

All right, that's enough.

All right, that's enough.
I'm Renri Hasumi.

I'm Renri Hasumi.

I'm sorry.

Kukuru may be like this,
but he's actually quite fun.

Kukuru? Can I call you by your first name?

No, you can't.

Kasubata is just frustrated.

Well, he did get punched.
That's 'Aoringo' for you.

I'm Haijima.

Haijima... The doll talked!

I also stream games.
Let's collaborate sometime.

Let's take a commemorative photo.

Um…

Ready? Three, two, one.

You piece of trash...

He's so photogenic.

How can they be nonchalant
- Is... is that so?

about approaching the Ghost Fire guy...
- Let's take another one.

It seems like we can all get along.

Then let's begin the first trial
right away.

It feels so light
that it's hard to move in it.

You'll get used to it soon.

It suits you.

Good!

What is that?

I'm going to test your cyberkinesis now.

If you pass the test, I'll allow you
to join the frontline exorcism missions.

Frontline...

It's a face-to-face battle
with a Ghost Account.

Someday, you'll have to face K, too.

Akari.

Let's get started.

I'll do anything to get rid
of that phantom brat.

That's a good answer.

[Appear]

Let me introduce them to you.

This is Yumomi-kun.

You need to defeat 100 of them to pass.

Although it's just a training simulation,

if you let your guard down,

you could die.

Cyber out.

It's a piece of cake.

Compared to Kasubata,
no matter how many of them come...

That's enough.

What? Why?

Just check your smartphone.

My phone?

When you activate the cyberkinesis output,

the battery of the phone
is synced with the ability user.

Simply put,
your psychokinesis is drained... No.

Your battery is drained.

In layman's terms,

this is a test of endurance.

It's to test
if you can make it through 100 ghosts.

But Aori-chan just fought Kasubata.
He used a lot of psychokinesis.

I want him to have an idea
of how it's like to feel drained.

I see. I get it now.

But then again,

this place really is a hotel, right?

Enishiro, take a seat and join us.

Kukuru, take my konjac.
- Food here is awesome.

Hand it over.
- There's meat.

This meat is delicious. Awesome!

[Canteen, Yoyo-Tei]
Wait, it's already night?

Once your power is drained,
you'll sleep for at least five hours.

You won't wake up, no matter
what's done to you during that time.

No matter what... How horny.

If that happens during a real combat,
you'll hold us back or just die.

So, endurance is a must.

In other words, no quickies.

So vulgar.

I'm so lame.

I was even so confident previously...

Doesn't that imply
you have powerful cyberkinesis?

Anyway, eat up.

The real test is in a week.

You only get one shot at it.

If you fail, you'll...

They'll likely lock you up
for interrogation. So, be prepared.

What?

Well, the academy is in an uproar now
because of you.

Quite a few people suspect
that you're in league with K.

After all, Ghost Fire is unpopular.

You're in a tight spot in the academy now.

Your training starts tomorrow.

Eat up and get a good sleep today.

Sleep is the best remedy
for recovering psychokinesis.

This is very important.

Good night.

Um... Where is my room?

Stop daydreaming.

I told you, you are under surveillance,
right?

We're sharing a room?

Towel, bathrobe, toothbrush
and other amenities are in that basket.

Don't use the public bath.

Just shower in the room.

If you try anything,
I'll punch you to a pulp.

Kasubata.

Your face says,
"Why do I have to sleep with this guy?"

I feel the same way, you dogshit.

My apologies.

Please!

Please train me!

Please let me master
cyberkinesis within a week.

That's not something
a flamebaiter would say.

You're acting so subserviently
after being roasted?

Where's your pride?

My pride doesn't matter.

I'm weak and you're awesome. That's all.

How vulgar.

I'll teach you even if you don't ask.

Really?

It's Mr. Azaki's order.

Thank you! I'm so happy! I'll do my best!

Don't touch me.

Why me?

Shouldn't you
be teaching him yourself, sir?

You're the class rep, right?
I'll leave it to you.

Are you kidding me?

You know why I don't like
enflamers, don't you?

You're messing with me, aren't you?

I'm sure it's better this way.

It's not just for Enishiro.

It's for you, too.

Have I ever lied to you?

I understand.

But a week from now,

he's going to run away
right before the real deal.

My mouth hurts.

Those enflamers are all the same.

I can't sleep. It's only ten o'clock.

I'm a night owl, and I slept
for a long time just now.

Hey, want to have a pillow fight?

Shut up.

[The Next Day]

It's depleting so fast.

You're releasing your cyberkinesis
without any restraint.

Restrain it more.

How do I restrain it?

Psychokinesis is affected
by your mental state.

You can imagine anything.

Imagine suppressing the flame.

Turn down the lighter
or extinguish the campfire.

Find your own "imagery."

Once you do that, you'll be able
to control your cyberkinesis.

My own "imagery"?

What the heck is that?

[Record 35]

[Day 2]

[Day 2]
It's finally over.

I wonder if the training is over.

Let's go see how
Aori-chan's training is going.

Are we really going?

Let's go.

Wait, I'm going too!

Take this!

It's halfway through.

Didn't he just awaken his power?

This is too hard on him.

It took Haijima about six months, right?

Shut up!

[Record 31]

Don't spill your manju!

[Day 3]

Fill myself up with caffeine.

[Record 41]
It's not working, you idiot.

[Day 4]

Not bad.

There are fewer unnecessary movements.

He's really trying hard.

[Record 49]
Imagery.

[Day 5]

Good, go for it!

He seems to be getting into the rhythm.

But he's making more
unnecessary movements.

My own imagery.

[Record 38]
My own imagery.

[Day 6]
I told you, your imagery isn't clear enough.

You piece of crap... My apologies.

I'm trying!

Is there no other way
than just imagining it?

No!

[Record 44]

It's still not working.

Aori-chan, this isn't good.

Hey, you're awake?

I failed again!

The imagery you capture
is all superficial.

Imagine it with real feeling,
with your whole heart and soul.

That's easy for you to say...

Let's eat today's Failure Manju.

You have no sense of crisis.

The real test is tomorrow.

What happens if you don't pass?

You think they are just bluffing,
don't you?

What?

You're really going to die.

The opposition has threatened
to dissect you alive.

They won't even spare your bones.

Bones...

Hey, Kasubata.

Can I just go home already?

Just as I thought.

All enflamers just live
for fleeting emotions, you piece of trash.

I just remember...

I left Akari's photo and ashes at home.

You mentioning the bones reminded me.

My front door wasn't locked!

Did you lock it for me?

Why would I lock your door?

What if a pervert breaks in?

Akari's photo is so cute.

Are you listening to me?

You're the one who's going
to the grave in a day.

Or was that just an excuse to run away?

What? Who would run away?

There's no point in running.
This is the only path for me.

[Cyberkinesis Output Test Day]

He's the 'Ghost Fire' user...

Disgusting. But he won't
live to see another day.

Are you ready?

Let the test begin!

Bring it on!

Go, Aori-chan!

The fire is too strong!

Damn it!

Halfway through.

How can he control 'Ghost Fire'
a week after awakening it?

It's like asking a newborn to walk!

Aori-chan!

Damn it!

Hang in there, newbie!

That's right, Enishiro!

You can do it!

Go!

Damn it!

You're so lame! What's wrong with you?

And you say you're going to
be stronger than anyone?

You 'flamebaiter' trash!

What... what are you doing, Kukuru?

Are you a demon?

Come on, just lose already.

You 'flamebaiter' trash!

He's still cursing?

You 'flamebaiter' piece of trash!

Disappear from this world!

Scumbag!

Looks like things are getting out of hand.

Hurry up and die!

These people have no dignity.

Die! Just die!

You scum!

Get lost!

[You b*stard!]
Scumbag!

[Get lost]
You piece of trash!

This is my first time being called
trash and scumbag by so many people.

When I first became a flamebaiting
streamer, I was actually scared.

I was scared of the malice pouring in
from all over the world.

But...

Akari.

Akari.
When I saw Akari vomiting blood,

When I saw Akari vomiting blood,

When I saw Akari vomiting blood, I thought there
was nothing scarier than that in this world.

I thought there was nothing
scarier than that in this world.

I thought there was nothing scarier than
that in this world. I needed money.

I needed money.

I needed money.
A huge amount to save Akari's life.

A huge amount to save Akari's life.

The heated insults
on the screen just now...

The heated insults on the screen just now... all turned
into the cries of fools bringing money to my door.

all turned into the cries of
fools bringing money to my door.

Actually, even back then,

I had already learned how to
extinguish the flames in my heart.

The fire is getting smaller.

He's suppressing the flames.

How is that possible?

He's got hold of it...

His own 'imagery'!

Go!

Just a little more!

How is that possible?

It can't be...

He passed the test!

He really did it!

Kasubata, well done.

Using the crowd's provocation
to recreate a "flamebaiting" scene,

and in this real situation,
igniting Enishiro's 'imagery'.

These two... are truly interesting.

I won't accept it...

I won't accept this result!

[Appear]
Yumomi-kun, maximum power!

Yumomi-kun, maximum power!

Watch out!

Not enough...

Damn it.

It's not enough!

[Appear]

The device has stopped functioning!

That's insane!

It's over 160!

Isn't that a new record
for the output test?

The title is "Dance of the Azure Fool".

No good. Eliminated.

Now, it's finally time for real combat.

This is exciting.

What kind of chemical reaction
will those two create?

He said he had no choice,
but he's just a flamebaiter jerk.

Even though this is a school
that trains spirit mediums,

they still have regular subjects
like mathematics?

It's an officially accredited
high school, after all.

I never thought
I'd be a high school student again.

Feel free to ask me
if you don't understand anything.

Thanks, uh... Hasumi.

Call me Renri.

But only his childhood friend
Kasubata calls him that.

I want to be in it too!

Emoto, join us too.
Let's take a picture together.

Uh… I'm not very photogenic.

I wonder what kind of
cyberkinesis they each have.

But it's a relief you weren't
taken in for questioning.

That's all thanks to Kasubata.

Come to think of it, I haven't
properly thanked you, Kasubata.

Thank you very much.

You piece of crap.

What was with you yesterday?

You went on a rampage,
ran out of power, and passed out.

Admit it, Enishiro.

You're just a guy addicted to violence.

Th-That's not true!

You don't have to say it out loud.

All attack-type cyberkinesis exorcists
have terrible personalities.

That includes Kasubata, of course.

This is just awful.

Now we've got another
attack-type in our class.

Come on, Urusugawa.

Let's get along.

Don't act like you know me.

Wait, Urusugawa.

Take back what you just said.

There's no way I'm the same as him.

All attack types are pretty much
the same, aren't they?

We're completely different!

Enishiro is evil, and I am justice!

What?

They're always like that.
- I don't see any difference.

Evil?
- You don't see it? How is that possible?

Evil?
- It's worse if you don't realize it!

They're so noisy.
- It's worse if you don't realize it!

What? What are you talking about?

Hey, youngsters!

The Intelligence Division
has given us a mission.

There's been a Ghost Account
incident in Tokyo.

Enishiro, this is your first mission.

A mission? A real one...

So, how should we form the teams?

Am I not going alone?

Of course. Humans can't
fight non-human evil spirits

one-on-one. It's impossible.

Exorcism requires teamwork.

Teamwork...

That's the ironclad rule.

Teamwork?

You piece of trash! I'm sorry...
- What?

You piece of trash! I'm sorry...
- What?

You piece of trash! I'm sorry...
- Huh?

You piece of trash!
- Huh?

I'm sorry...
- They're fighting again today.

But now...

I don't have to tell you
who your partner is, right?
