00:00The story begins with a boy named Soji, whose sister Akari, is sick with a deadly disease,
00:05and he can't afford to pay for her treatment, so he makes rage-bait content online.
00:10He attacks another creator unprovoked, which makes everyone not like him,
00:14but he only cares about making money to save his sister.
00:17He visits Akari in the hospital, but he finds her sitting up, and tells her she needs to lie down,
00:22but she notes that she's been resting all day, and wonders why he didn't reply to her messages.
00:28He explains that he had to take care of something, and notes that he brought her cake,
00:32but she knows that he also likes sweets, so she wonders how many of them he's had.
00:36He tells her he only had three, but she asks for the real number, and he admits he had six
00:41or seven of them.
00:42She scolds him for not sticking to his diet, and decides to eat his cake as punishment,
00:47but she suddenly starts to cough, which makes him worried.
00:51She apologizes for scaring him, and explains that she doesn't know what's wrong with her body,
00:56but he tells her not to lose hope, since they will visit the US for her surgery next month.
01:01She's happy to hear it, but notes that she doesn't want to be a burden on him,
01:05so he assures her that money won't be a problem, because he found a great part-time job.
01:10He recalls how the orphanage's warden taught them never to hurt others,
01:13but he knows his only talent is fighting, so he can't get a decent job.
01:17He knows that people don't like him, but he doesn't care about his reputation,
01:21since he's willing to burn the world to save his sister.
01:24A month later, we see people talking about Soji since he hasn't uploaded a new video,
01:29and they start to wonder if he retired.
01:32We see Soji eating a pudding, but he suddenly receives a message from Akari,
01:36and she tells him she feels better now, which makes him relieved.
01:40At night, Soji falls asleep while holding his phone, but he wakes up as he senses someone's
01:45presence, and a boy named Kuru suddenly attacks him with a hammer.
01:50Soji realizes he's trying to destroy his phone, so he grabs it and runs outside,
01:55but Kuru follows him and takes another swing.
01:57He blocks the hammer and starts to fight back, but Kuru dodges his attack,
02:02and continues to target his phone.
02:04Kuru reveals that he's seen Soji's videos, and Soji thinks he must have hurt him in the past,
02:09so he apologizes for his content.
02:11He begs Kuru to spare his phone, since he needs it to contact his sister,
02:16but Kuru explains that he needs to destroy it, and tells him that Akari is already dead.
02:21We learned that a month ago, Soji watched Akari as she passed away,
02:25but he couldn't accept it, so he didn't even go to her funeral.
02:29He kept texting her, and one day she actually replies,
02:32telling him he needs to eat healthy, which made him believe she was still alive.
02:36In the present, Soji's phone starts to glitch out, and Akari appears on the screen,
02:42which makes him happy, but Kuru knocks it out of his hands and smashes it with his hammer.
02:46They're shocked since it didn't break, and Akari comes out of the phone,
02:50as she thanks Soji for always protecting her, but she suddenly transforms into a monster.
02:55Kuru steps in to protect him, and notes that she isn't his sister anymore,
02:59revealing that he's been talking with a ghost.
03:02Kuru explains that ghosts used to get trapped in places where people spent most of their time,
03:07but in today's world, people spend a lot of their time on their phones,
03:10so the spirits have started to appear on social media.
03:13He reveals that when a deceased person's social media account transforms into a ghost,
03:18they call it a ghost account, but since he couldn't destroy the phone in time,
03:22he now needs to fight her.
03:24He notes that physical attacks don't work against ghosts after they appear,
03:28so he drops his hammer and takes out his phone,
03:30as he explains that traditional exorcism methods won't work on digital ghosts.
03:35He takes another hammer out of his phone,
03:37as he explains that they must also digitize their spiritual power to exorcise ghosts,
03:42and he lands multiple hits on Akari, but Soji can't bear it and begs him to stop.
03:47Kuru tells him to wake up, since his sister is already dead,
03:50and explains that everyone suffers after they lose someone important to them,
03:54but they need to accept it and keep on living.
03:57Akari comes out of the phone completely, and Soji tries to calm her down, but Kuru pushes him back.
04:03She sends him flying, and traps Soji in her mouth, telling him he's helpless without her.
04:08So he recalls how his sister was always worried about him, and thinks he's the reason why she
04:13can't leave this world. But he taps into his spiritual energy, and Akari lets him go,
04:18as he finally accepts that she's gone, and Kuru is amazed as he pulls blue flames out of his phone.
04:23He realizes that Soji's powers have awakened, but the flames remind him of someone.
04:29Akari rushes at Soji, but he tells her she doesn't need to worry about him,
04:33since he'll take care of himself, and he finishes her off with his flames.
04:37After that, Kuru's friends arrive to check on him, and they're disappointed since he couldn't
04:42exorcise a weak ghost, but he tells them how Soji awakened his powers. They think it's tragic
04:47that he had to exorcise his own sister's ghost, but Kuru mentions that his flame was blue,
04:52which shocks all of them. They wonder what they should do with him, and their teacher Izaki,
04:57tells them they'll take Soji to the academy. The next day, Soji wakes up and thinks it was all
05:03just a dream, but he notices Kuru in the room, so he realizes it was real. Kuru returns his phone,
05:09and notes that he even charged it, but Soji can't find Akari's profile,
05:13so Kuru explains that dead accounts disappear when their ghosts are exorcised.
05:18Soji is sad that he can't even message her, but he puts on a fake smile,
05:22and notes that he needs to accept her death. But Kuru knows that he's only pretending to be strong,
05:28so he reminds Kuru that he was the one who told him to let her go and continue living.
05:32Kuru takes him outside, and Soji thinks they're at a hotel, but Kuru notes that they're at a school
05:38for exorcists. Soji can't believe a school can be that fancy, so Kuru explains that it
05:43was built to look like a hot springs hotel, to emphasize how they clean the world of evil
05:48spirits. As they walk through the campus, the students start to talk about how Kuru failed
05:53his mission, and they don't like Soji because of his videos. Kuru takes him to the hot spring,
05:58and Soji notices that all his wounds have healed, but he tells himself not to relax too much,
06:04or he might break down and cry thinking about Akari. Azaki suddenly emerges from the water,
06:09and introduces himself as a monk and a teacher, but Kuru tells him it isn't safe to stand up too
06:14fast in hot water, since it causes their blood vessels to expand. They head inside, and Kuru
06:20notes that he has already shown Soji around the campus, but notes that he isn't comfortable being
06:25around Soji, since he's a rage baiter who uses the blue flame. He notes that he likes the school,
06:30so Azaki invites him to join them as an exorcist, and Kuru thinks Azaki is taunting him since he failed
06:36his mission. But Azaki notes that he's doing it in good faith, because Soji just awakened his
06:41cyberkinesis. He can't understand what they're talking about, so Azaki explains that for centuries,
06:47exorcists have been in a constant battle against evil spirits, but everything changed after the
06:52introduction of the internet. The exorcists couldn't deal with ghost accounts using their
06:56old powers, which led to the creation of cyberkinesis, but Soji gets bored and goes to scroll on his phone.
07:03Azaki is disappointed, but Soji notes that he doesn't need to know anything about ghosts or
07:07exorcism, because he just wants to return to his normal life. Soji prepares to leave, but Azaki asks
07:14him if he wants to know what really killed his sister, so Soji notes that she died because of
07:18her disease. But Azaki reveals that she was murdered by a powerful ghost account, which targets victims
07:24with a strong tie to the world. Its victims shed tears of blood just like Akari, and Soji wonders where
07:30he can find the ghost, since he wants to kill it himself, but Azaki tells him he can't do anything
07:35since he's weak. He becomes angry and charges at Azaki, but Kuru blocks his attack, and Soji notes
07:41that he'll beat Azaki to force the information out of him. Azaki tells them to calm down, and notes that
07:47if Soji defeats Kuru, he will tell him everything he knows. Kuru becomes excited, since he can finally
07:53take out his anger on Soji, and Soji charges at Azaki again, but he dodges it and starts to run
07:59away. Soji chases after him, but Kuru hits him from behind, and tells him it felt better to smash
08:05him than his sister. He becomes angry and decides to fight Kuru seriously, which draws everyone's
08:11attention, including the principal Yabami, who decides to let them carry on. As Kuru hits Soji again,
08:17he taunts him for being a rage baiter, but Soji explains that he only did that to make money for
08:22his sister.
08:23Kuru continues to smash him, as he notes that he doesn't believe him, since there were other ways
08:28to earn money, and he thinks Soji just did it because he wants attention. Kuru multiplies his
08:34hammer and launches them at Soji, who gets knocked down, and he wonders what kind of move Kuru used to
08:39beat him. Azaki explains that it's cyberkinesis, and he teaches Soji how to draw out his weapon from
08:45his phone, but as Soji follows his instructions, a blue flame erupts from it, which shocks everyone.
08:51Azaki warns Kuru not to touch the flame, and asks Soji to show them what he can do.
08:56So he channels it into his feet to increase his speed, and charges at Kuru, but he goes right past
09:02him and falls over. Everyone's amazed by his speed, and Azaki realizes he's a fast learner,
09:08but notices that his flames are fading quickly. He channels his flames into his feet again,
09:13and charges at Kuru, who dodges his attack, but gets a cut on his cheek, so he's annoyed and starts
09:18to fight back. Everyone's impressed that Soji has improved so much in just a day, and Azaki tells
09:24another teacher named Kakiko, that Soji has incredible talent, but she thinks that he should
09:29end the fight. He tells Kuru and Soji to stop, but Kuru tells him to mind his own business,
09:35and Soji thinks no one can beat him with his new powers, but Kuru increases the size of his hammer
09:40and shatters the ground. Soji is stunned, and Kuru prepares another swing, but Azaki deflects his attack,
09:47telling him he went too far. Azaki apologizes to Soji since they couldn't save Akari, and explains
09:53that he only provoked him to draw out his powers, but Soji begs them to let him join the school,
09:58so that he can become stronger. Azaki shows Soji a video of a team of exorcists, who run into a
10:04ghost
10:05account during their mission, and their leader uses his phone to scan him. He realizes that the ghost is
10:10extremely dangerous, so he tells his team to fall back, but the boy kills all of them with his blue
10:16flames.
10:17Azaki tells Soji his account name is Sad Boy K, and they don't have any information about his past,
10:22but he's the most powerful enemy they've encountered so far, and Azaki reveals that he was the one who
10:27killed Akari. Soji is shocked that K has the same blue flames as him, so Azaki tells him they call
10:33it
10:34the Demon Flame, and explains that it's a cursed ability that drains the life force of anyone it
10:38touches. Soji wonders why he has the same power as K, and asks Azaki why he let him fight Kuru
10:44if he had
10:45such a dangerous ability, so Azaki tells him he just had a feeling they would both survive.
10:50Soji wonders if he would get burned by his own flames, so Azaki explains that he won't,
10:55and notes that animals don't die from their own poison. Soji wants to go home, since he needs time
11:01to process the information, but Kuru and the other students tell him he can't leave. Azaki introduces
11:06them as his students from class B, and notes that they will be Soji's classmates, but Kuru notes that
11:12they don't want to be around him since he can kill them with his flames. A student named Renri apologizes
11:17for Kuru's rudeness, while a doll named Hiyori tells Soji that Kuru is just upset since he was
11:23able to hit him. Soji is surprised to see a talking doll, but she tells him she's also a streamer,
11:29so she thinks they should do a collab in the future. Renri takes a selfie with Soji, but another student
11:34named Naruhiko wonders how they can all be so relaxed around a Demon Flame user. Azaki tells Soji he needs
11:41to pass one more test before he becomes a proper exorcist, and he takes him to the training room,
11:46where he needs to fight the artificial spirits. Azaki mentions that he needs to defeat a hundred
11:51artificial spirits, and explains that if he succeeds, he will be sent out into the field,
11:56where he might face K. He's determined to do whatever it takes to succeed, and the spirits charge
12:02at him, so he destroys them with his flames, but he starts to feel dizzy. Azaki tells him to check
12:08his
12:08phone's battery, since it's synced with his spiritual power, but he notices that it's at 0%,
12:13and he collapses from exhaustion. When he wakes up, he sees everyone having dinner, and Azaki tells him
12:19it was a test of endurance, but notes that he wanted Soji to experience running out of battery.
12:25Soji notices it's already late, and Azaki explains that once his battery runs out, he will be unconscious
12:30for about 5 hours, so he needs to be careful since he might die in the field. Azaki tells him
12:36his real
12:37test will be next week, but he won't get any retakes if he fails, and he'll be punished since
12:41there are people who believe he has a connection with K. Azaki tells him to rest, and notes that
12:47they will train the following day, but he's surprised to learn that he needs to share a room
12:51with Kuru. Kuru thinks he'll be upset, but he instead asks Kuru to train him, since he needs to
12:57pass the test, and he can't let his pride stop him from getting stronger, so Kuru notes that Azaki
13:02already told him to do that. The next day, Soji charges at the artificial spirits with his
13:08full power, which drains his battery, so Kuru tells him to control himself instead of going
13:13all out. He tells Soji to find something unique to him, like putting out a campfire to control
13:18his flames, but Soji isn't able to do it, and collapses after defeating 35 of the training
13:24spirits. Over the next few days, Soji continues to train, and the other students are impressed
13:30by his progress. But he still can't defeat more than 49 spirits, and they think he's doomed
13:35since he needs to defeat a hundred of them. Kuru tells him he needs to think of something
13:40tangible, but he still can't do it, and decides to stress eat instead. Kuru notes that Azaki
13:46wasn't lying about the punishment, and tells Soji they will strip him to the bone, but he
13:50suddenly remembers that he left Akari's memorial picture and remains on the table. He recalls that
13:55he forgot to lock the front door, so he wants to go home, and Kuru thinks it's just an excuse
14:00for him to run away, but Soji tells him he's not running, because his only goal is to avenge Akari.
14:06The day of Soji's test arrives, and Soji starts to defeat the spirits, but he makes the same mistake,
14:12so his battery drops to nearly 30% after he defeats a few monsters. His classmates cheer for him,
14:19but Kuru starts to mock him, which shocks everyone. The ones who don't like Soji start to curse him as
14:24well,
14:25but their remarks remind him of when he first started making his videos, and the negative
14:29comments scared him. But he eventually started seeing those haters as people, who helped him
14:34make money for Akari. The memory helps him control his emotions, and he manages to restrain his flame
14:40to conserve his power, allowing him to defeat the hundred spirits. Azaki knows that Kuru turned the
14:46crowd against Soji to push him forward, and he thinks they will make a great team, but a teacher
14:51named Nanzo releases even stronger spirits since he hates Soji. Everyone becomes worried, but he
14:57easily destroys them, and the machine stops as he sets a new record of 161 spirits. After that,
15:04Soji attends the classes at the academy, but he's surprised that they need to study normal subjects.
15:10He thanks Kuru for helping him, and Kuru isn't happy that he passed out after the test,
15:14but a girl named Kiyomi notes that anyone with offensive powers has a reckless personality.
15:20Kuru doesn't like being in the same category as Soji, so they get into an argument, and Azaki tells
15:25everyone about their new mission. He wonders who to send with Soji, but he notices Kiyomi and Kuru
15:31arguing, so he tells them they will team up with Soji. We see K after he kills people in a
15:36cinema,
15:37and he notes that he's sad, because they erased Akari just as she was born. His friend Garin,
15:42tells him to forget about her, since it's already been 8 days, and he notes that they finally found
15:47Soji, which makes K happy. At night, Soji's team arrives at the place where they need to exercise
15:53a spirit, but Azaki shows up in a disguise, and notes that they need to keep a low profile.
15:59But a group of girls finds him charming, and they drag him off to have dinner with them.
16:04Kakiko tells everyone they detected spirit signals, and she thinks they might be dealing
16:08with a ghost account nexus. But Soji has no idea what that is, so Kuru explains that ghost accounts
16:14will be erased if they don't recharge periodically, which is why electronic stores become hotspots of
16:20paranormal activity. Kiyomi wonders why she was placed on the same team as them, and Kuru notes
16:25that he also isn't happy with their team, telling Arazaki must be doing it for his amusement.
16:31Kiyomi wants to leave, because her favorite streamer Kuya, will start his stream in about 2 hours.
16:36She thinks he'll forget her if she doesn't send a super chat, but Soji wonders if it's more important
16:41than the mission, so she tells him it's a big deal. Kakiko tells them their mission is to clear all
16:47the
16:47ghost accounts in the building, and notes that only low-level spirits are inside, but she still tells
16:52them to be careful. They enter the building, and Kiyomi walks through the aisles, but a ghost suddenly
16:58appears behind her. She dodges its attack and pulls Gu out of her phone, which attaches to her arm,
17:04and transforms into a pistol. She pins the ghost down with her goo, and Kuru tells Soji that she
17:10has no right to call him strange, since she's a clingy fangirl obsessed with Kuya. He notes that
17:15she's been banned from his profile multiple times, since she leaves toxic comments, but she creates
17:21new accounts to continue stalking him. Kiyomi tells them she isn't a stalker, and explains that she's in
17:27love with Kuya, but Kuru warns Soji to be careful how he uses his phone, since it has a major
17:32effect on
17:32how their powers work. They work together to defeat the other spirits, which amazes Soji,
17:38and he realizes that exorcism is about teamwork. A ghost appears behind them, so Soji jumps in and
17:44destroys it, but they're angry since his demon flame could have killed them. We see thieves in the store,
17:49and we learn that they broke in while everyone was busy with the evacuation, but a spirit suddenly
17:54attacks them. On the other side, Kiyomi notes that she never wanted to be an exorcist, but explains
18:00that it's the only thing she's good at, and mentions that she needs money to send super chats to Kuya.
18:06She uses her goo gun to immobilize the ghosts, which allows Kuru to finish them off, and she notes that
18:12he's a talented attacker even though she doesn't like him. She explains that they don't need another
18:17attack-type exorcist in their class, especially not someone like Soji, who could kill them with one
18:22touch. They reach the top floor, where they find the thieves, and Kiyomi sees the evil spirit,
18:28so she fires her goo to restrain it. Kuru smashes it with his hammer, but it immediately heals,
18:34so he realizes it has a curse. He tells Kiyomi they need to escape, but the spirit breaks free
18:39and grabs onto her. Kuru slams it with his hammer again, but it has no effect, and the spirit sends
18:45him flying. Soji asks him why the spirit is so powerful, so he explains that ghost accounts can
18:51have special abilities, which are known as curses. He notes that spirits can become mid-to-high-level
18:57threats if they have curses, so the exorcists usually form a dedicated team before engaging
19:02one of them, but he thinks they stand no chance in their current condition. The ghost breaks Kiyomi's
19:07arm and slams her into the ground, which knocks her out, and Kuru tells Soji to run, since his blue
19:13flame will only get in the way. Kuru launches his hammers at the spirit, but it has no effect,
19:18and the spirit prepares to kill Kiyomi. Soji throws a bear covered in his demon flame,
19:23which causes the ghost to drop her, and Soji notes that he can't leave them, because exorcism
19:29is all about teamwork. They hide on a lower floor, where Kuru grabs Soji's arm while his flames are
19:34active, but nothing happens, so he realizes that the flames' effects are reversed when a human wields
19:40it. They notice that the ghost's hand hasn't healed after he used his flames on it, so they come up
19:45with
19:45a plan to defeat it. Soji attacks it from behind, and leaves an opening for Kuru to land hammer strikes,
19:51but it suddenly spins around, and slams Soji into the wall. He realizes he's in danger and gets an
19:57adrenaline rush, and as he dodges its next attack, he throws another flaming toy at it, but the ghost
20:03avoids it and grabs onto his leg. Kuru rushes to save him, but Kiyomi shoots her goo at it, and
20:09we
20:09learn that she's angry since Kuya's stream has already started, and the ghost broke her streak of
20:13being the first to send a super chat. She tells the others to finish it, so they attack it with
20:18everything they've got, but it starts to tear through her goo. She struggles to keep it restrained,
20:24but another girl's super chat announcement comes through, so she becomes enraged. She squeezes the
20:29ghost even tighter, while Soji and Kuru attack it together, and they manage to exercise it. Soji
20:35notes that he had fun, and accepts that even though he became a rage baiter for his sister, he also
20:40enjoyed
20:41it. He thinks he's trash, and Kuru agrees with him, but notes that trash tends to make a good
20:46exorcist. As they prepare to leave, Soji senses a presence, so he turns around, but he sees blood
20:53coming out of Kiyomi and Kuru's eyes, and Kai suddenly appears. Soji loses his mind as he sees
20:59memories of Akari, and he charges in, but his attacks have no effect, and Kai wonders if that's
21:04the best he can do. He collapses as his eyes start to bleed, and he pushes himself to get up,
21:10because he
21:11needs to avenge Akari. Kai thinks Soji will turn into a ghost after he kills him, since he has such
21:16a strong tie to the world, and Kai prepares to finish him off, but Ozaki suddenly protects him
21:21with a gust of wind. He introduces himself as an exorcist in Soji's teacher, which excites Kai,
21:27but Ozaki checks on the others, and assures Soji that his friends are dead. He wakes them up,
21:33but Ozaki starts to cry, because he feels guilty for leaving them alone to fight a mid-level spirit.
21:38He blames himself for their suffering, but Soji notices Kai charging his flame to burn them all,
21:44so Ozaki creates a barrier around them. Soji is shocked to see it, so Kuru explains that it's a
21:50special device that keeps ghosts away for three minutes, by blocking electromagnetic waves.
21:55Ozaki praises Soji for standing his ground against Kai, and tells his students to stay inside the
22:01barrier, while he goes to face Kai himself. Ozaki summons a koi fish, which he uses to send Kai flying,
22:07and he creates a powerful splash of water to attack him. Kai is unaffected, and thinks killing
22:13Ozaki would create an even stronger connection between Soji and the world, which will surely
22:18turn him into a ghost. Kai launches multiple fire blasts to burn Ozaki, but he dodges all of them,
22:24and launches a counterattack, and Soji wonders what kind of cyberkinesis he's using.
22:29Kuru notes that older exorcists like Ozaki don't use cyberkinesis, which is why they struggle against
22:34digital spirits, but Ozaki is running his spiritual power through a digital converter to make his
22:39attacks effective. But his eyes start to bleed, which worries Soji, but Kuru tells him to stay calm,
22:46because if Kai were just a regular ghost, Ozaki could have already erased him. Kuru reveals that when
22:51analog powers are converted through the digital converter, they drop by 90%, which means Ozaki is
22:57fighting with only 10% of his true strength. Kai starts to overpower him, but he smiles as he
23:03summons two more fish, and attacks Kai with all three of them. Kuru reveals that Ozaki is a legendary
23:09exorcist, who made his name at a young age, when he defeated a calamity class demon and earned the
23:14title of a living legend. Soji realizes his teacher is an actual legend, but Kuru notes that Ozaki retired
23:21from active duty, and devoted himself to raising the next generation. He knows he can't afford to
23:27embarrass himself, and he continues to attack Kai, but he suddenly disappears, as Garen pulls him back
23:33into the internet, and tells him his battery is running low. Kai is disappointed that as a ghost
23:38account, he can only stay in the real world for a short time, but Garen assures him that it will
23:43be
23:43solved once the ghost world is complete. Ozaki tells the students that Kai was fighting in power
23:48saver mode, so Kuru thinks they missed a chance to defeat him, but Ozaki is just glad they're all
23:54safe, and Soji tells him he wants to become as strong as him. At the school, the officials hold a
23:59meeting to discuss Kai, and they learn that his account is still active, but those who follow him
24:04end up dead, so people treat him like an urban legend. They ask Ozaki why Kai appeared, so he explains
24:10that Kai came for Soji, since he plans to turn him into a ghost account, and Nanzo thinks they should
24:15get rid of Soji. Ozaki notes that his flames are harmless to humans, and he's sure that Soji isn't
24:21a spy, because Kai attacked him earlier, so killing him would count as murder. Yubami agrees with
24:27Ozaki, but asks him what he'll do if a situation comes where they need to eliminate Soji, so he notes
24:32that he'll kill Soji himself, but he doesn't think it would ever come to that. Soji and Kuru head to
24:38the nurse's office, where Soji is surprised to see that Kiyomi has completely healed, but she tells him
24:44to stop staring at her. The nurse Mina, tells them to stop arguing, and she takes a picture of Soji
24:49with her phone, so that she can use her cyberkinesis to heal him. He's embarrassed because
24:54he was in terrible shape the last time he came there, so she must have undressed him and took a
24:59picture of his whole body to treat him, but she explains that it was for medical purposes.
25:04The rest of their classmates come to greet them, but they aren't in the mood to relax,
25:08because they want to continue training so that they can defeat K. But Mina tells them to check their
25:13phone batteries, and they realize they're nearly out of spiritual energy. So she tells them they
25:18need to rest, reminding them that they will pass out if they keep using their cyberkinesis,
25:23so they decide to do physical training instead. Soji realizes he can't fight at his full potential,
25:29because his physical strength can't keep up with his cyberkinesis, so he asks Kuru to train him,
25:34but Kuru is busy with his phone, and mentions that he hates everyone.
25:38Renry tells Soji to wait, because Kuru is busy with his daily routine of posting hate comments,
25:44and after he's done, Kuru tells Soji he should drink tea, because it calms the mind.
25:49Soji wonders if he was ever part of a gang, because he noticed a tattoo on his arm,
25:54so Kuru tells him not to judge him just because of his tattoo.
25:58Renry mentions that Kuru was part of a gang in high school, and he shows them an old photo,
26:02so Kuru notes that Renry was also in that same gang, but he explains that he just followed Kuru,
26:08and tells Soji they've been friends since they were kids. Kuru asks Soji why he came,
26:13so he notes that he wants to learn hand-to-hand combat, but Kuru sends him to Hiyori instead,
26:18since she's an expert in it. Soji finds Hiyori on a shelf and tries to talk to her,
26:23but she doesn't respond, so he looks around and finds multiple copies of her, which freaks him out.
26:29The real Hiyori appears behind him, and explains that Denmi is the academy's official mascot and
26:35best-selling merchandise, while her cyberkinesis allows her to remotely control the dolls,
26:40revealing that her real body is in her dorm. He asks her to train him, and she immediately
26:45agrees to do it, because she always wanted to fight him. They head to the training ground,
26:50where Hiyori tells Naruhiko to bring out a large doll, and she asks him to serve as referee.
26:56Soji wonders how he can fight such a cute doll, but Hiyori launches a barrage of attacks and shows
27:01him no mercy. Naruhiko tells Soji to take her seriously, because she's an esports champion,
27:07and we learn that she enjoys playing fighting games. Soji becomes serious and channels his blue
27:13flame, so Hiyori also decides to go all out, and shifts into the larger doll. He thinks she's an easy
27:19target, but as he gets closer, she surprises him with her speed, and lands multiple hits.
27:25She explains that she competes at a pro gaming level, where every moment matters, so she knows
27:30how to predict her opponent's next move through their breathing and rhythm. Soji decides to copy
27:35her, and he manages to dodge her attacks, which surprises Naruhiko. He blocks her kick, but she
27:41tells him not to get cocky, because he still lacks something important. She finishes him off with her
27:47special move, and tells him it's what he's lacking, so he accepts that she's strong, and asks her to be
27:52his teacher. She reveals that only a few people can block her attacks in that form, which means he has
27:58potential, and she knows that he'll get even stronger. After that, they head to the nurse's
28:03office, where Mina heals them, but she tells them to go easier on each other, since she needs time to
28:09help Yabami with her anti-aging treatment. On his way to the bath, Soji wonders what the real
28:14Hiyori looks like, but he runs into Kiyomi and a shy pink-haired girl. Kiyomi reveals that she's
28:19the real Hiyori, which shocks Soji, because she looks nothing like her doll. He tries to talk to
28:25her, but she runs away and returns in her doll form, to hit him for bumping into her. Kiyomi explains
28:31that Hiyori is an introvert, who doesn't like interacting with others, and she tells Soji she
28:36looks forward to their next training session, which makes him happy. He receives a message from
28:41Izaki, who invites him to a meeting, where they discuss their strategy for exercising K.
28:47Izaki notes that they've already failed to kill him twice, and most of the students who tried
28:51didn't make it, so they want to go fully prepared. Kakiko notes that the intelligence division is
28:56analyzing K's past movements using their server, and explains that they will carry out their mission
29:01the moment they find him, which will probably be at the end of the year. Soji thinks two months will
29:07be enough to train, but Izaki reveals that first years aren't allowed to fight high or extreme
29:12level ghost accounts, so they won't send him to fight K. He notes that he'll go even if it gets
29:17him expelled, so Kuru mentions that a student can participate, if they have cyberkinesis skills
29:22essential to the mission, or if they have already proven themselves. Soji wonders how he can do that,
29:28so Izaki tells him about the annual competition between class A and class B, which is the perfect
29:33chance for him to demonstrate his abilities. He decides to prove himself in that event,
29:38and they all start to train for the competition, but Soji suddenly runs into a spirit.
29:44Naruhiko creates a barrier to block it, and Soji thinks he's amazing, but he can't hear Soji,
29:49so he gets the wrong idea and thinks Soji is making fun of his abilities. His barrier breaks since he
29:55can't focus on the music, and the spirit continues to attack them, so they run away. Ren rejoins them,
30:01and leads them into better positions, which allows them to surround the spirits. Soji wonders how he
30:07did that, so Hiyori explains that his cyberkinesis works like a CCTV camera, and he can create windows
30:13from photos he's taken with his phone. They defeat the spirits, and Izaki thinks they have improved a
30:19great deal since their last battle, but when he sees Soji calling Hiyori his master, he becomes jealous
30:25and starts to cry. Ren re-thinks Soji is a great addition to their class, but they notice that he
30:30burns through his spirit power too fast, which eventually slows him down. Soji thinks he should
30:36only summon his flames when necessary, but Kuru explains that cyberkinesis burns the most energy
30:41when it's activated, so it might be better to just leave it running. His classmates decide to call it
30:47a day, but he wants to keep training, so he goes on a solo session. He takes out his sister's
30:52hairpin,
30:53but he runs out of spiritual energy and collapses, but a boy named Tsurugi catches him.
30:57He thanks Tsurugi for catching the hairpin, and reveals that it's important to him since it's his
31:02sister's favorite, but Tsurugi suddenly burns it. He reveals that he's also a rage baiter who enjoys
31:08the suffering of others, and notes that he likes Soji's reaction, so Soji becomes angry and prepares to
31:14fight. Tsurugi wants to bully him even more, but Hiyori suddenly arrives, and tells Soji he's a master troll
31:20who enjoys bullying others. She reveals that he's also part of class A, and their class head Wagari,
31:26tells him to rejoin their training, but she warns Soji to stay away from them since they aren't
31:31friendly. They prepare to leave, and Soji charges at Tsurugi from behind, but a class A student named
31:37Eru, works with Wagari to take him down. Kuru suddenly arrives with the others, and he clashes
31:43with Wagari, telling him to stay away from Soji. K is sad since he's alone again, and he wonders what
31:49Soji is up to, so Garam tells him to cheer up, and notes that they're slowly gathering all the
31:54resources they need to make his dream come true. Meanwhile, Soji uses his flames to push himself up,
32:01and he chases after Tsurugi, while Wagari notes that they can't tell a rage baiter what to do.
32:06Kuru agrees they're all the same, but he thinks Tsurugi is worse than Soji,
32:10and a boy from class A named Iwata, is jealous that Eru has a crush on Soji.
32:15Tsurugi dodges Soji's attack, and he's impressed by the blue flames,
32:19but he shows Soji he can summon his fire without using his phone.
32:22He tells Soji they won the previous terms competition, and notes that class B is full
32:27of incompetent students, so Soji becomes angry. He grabs Tsurugi's burning hand, which makes Tsurugi
32:34excited, but Wagari interrupts them as he cuts the surrounding trees. He apologizes for Tsurugi's
32:40behavior, but he thinks class B is trash, since they accepted a demon flame user.
32:45Kuru is confident in Soji's abilities, and thinks they will win because of him,
32:49while Tsurugi tells him they shouldn't hold back the next time they face each other.
32:53After that, they visit Mina's office again, and she reminds them to take care of themselves.
32:59On his way out, Soji runs into Izaki, who tells him his friends are preparing for the competition,
33:04and he asks Izaki to help him train. They all train hard in the following days,
33:09and even prepare a strategy for the upcoming match, while class A just relaxes since they're
33:14confident they'll win. Yubami and the teachers discuss whether class B has any chance to redeem
33:19itself, because only Kuru performed well in the previous term, and their defensive cyberkinesis
33:25failed to function. Yubami wonders if Soji will bring them good or bad fortune,
33:29but we see someone send a message to K, that his wish will be fulfilled soon.
33:34On the day of the competition, Naruhiko is nervous since class A is full of offensive
33:39cyberkinesis users, who kept chasing him in the last competition. Soji wonders why he's still an
33:45exorcist if he's scared of everything, but Hiyori mentions that everyone has their reasons,
33:50and Soji wonders if her real self didn't come. Kiyomi points at the cardboard in the back where the
33:55real Hiyori is hiding, and she explains that she joined them, since the doll requires less spirit
34:00power when she's nearby. Soji is excited for the match, because he wants to try out his new move,
34:06but they're surprised to learn that the competition will take place in a replica of Kuzatsu.
34:11We learn that they have Mina in the area, so the participants are allowed to harm each other,
34:15but killing means instant disqualification. Kakiko notes that Izaki will join them through
34:21video conference, and he tells them to do their best, as he mentions that everyone has their eyes
34:26on the battle, since they're being evaluated for potential use against K. Kuru promises not to
34:31embarrass him, but he tells them it's okay if they lose, and notes he really loves them, so he doesn't
34:36want them to die when they go on dangerous missions. Meanwhile, Nanzo tells class A to win at all costs,
34:43and he reminds them to stick to their plan of one target per person.
34:47Surugi tells everyone he'll go after Soji, but another student named Ban, also wants to fight
34:52Soji, because blue is his favorite color. Wagari tells everyone to just target whoever they meet
34:57first, but we see that class B is ready to take them on, and Renri thanks Soji for standing up
35:02for
35:03their class. He mentions that they remain silent, because they were saving it for the big day,
35:08and as the competition begins, Kuru instantly splits his hammer. They fly straight toward class A,
35:14so Ban creates a massive statue of ice to block them, and his friends think it's beautiful,
35:18but they wonder how much spirit energy he used to create the statue. He reveals that it took 50%
35:24of his charge, which angers them, but Wagari launches a counterattack, so class B hides behind
35:29Naruhiko's barrier. Kuru notes that Wagari is a genius, who has been on several high-level missions,
35:35and he's even defeated mid-level spirits on his own, so they should run when they see him.
35:40Class A can't find their opponents, but Wagari spots the moving cardboard, and he thinks Hiyori
35:46is hiding inside, so he follows it into a narrow alley. He cuts it open, but realizes that only her
35:52doll is inside it, and we learn that they plan to ambush him while the rest of his classmates are
35:56far
35:57away. They attack him at the same time, but he manages to defend himself. Renri notes that Wagari's
36:03teammates are on their way, so Kuru realizes they need to defeat him before the others arrive,
36:08and he launches his hammers at him. He easily blocks them, but Kiyomi suddenly freezes his hands,
36:14and Soji kicks him in the head. The academy's teachers watch the contest, as Yobami notes that
36:19she's impressed by class B's teamwork, and she thinks Soji has ignited a new spark in them.
36:25Wagari stabs through the goo, and Soji thinks he took his own life, but Kuru knows that he's using
36:30his cyberkinesis, which allows him to cut only his chosen target. He unleashes a deadly slash,
36:36which slices through everything in the area, so Naruhiko protects everyone with his barrier,
36:41but Hiyori isn't able to reach him in time. Wagari realizes he almost killed them since he
36:46lost his cool, so he takes a breath to calm down, and tells them he'll only cut their hands and
36:51feet.
36:52Renri notices that Wagari has blocked their escape route, and Soji thinks they'll be okay as long
36:57as they have Naruhiko's barrier, but he realizes it's gone since Naruhiko can't focus. Wagari tells
37:03Naruhiko to leave the academy, and thinks he doesn't have what it takes to be a successful
37:08exorcist, since he can't even conquer his fears. His friends become angry and tell Wagari he doesn't
37:14know Naruhiko, so he slashes them with his cyberkinesis. But they suddenly disappear,
37:19and Renri reveals that he used his windows to teleport them away.
37:23The teachers are amazed by his ability, but they think Class B is in trouble since they got split
37:28up, and his friends don't understand what happened, because he didn't tell them about his powers.
37:33Kuru realizes that none of them can beat Wagari in a one-on-one fight, so he thinks they need
37:38to
37:38set up another ambush to take him out, but Wagari suddenly follows him through the window.
37:43He reveals that his family taught him to be a perfectionist, and notes that he can't stand
37:48Kuru and his friends, because he thinks all of them are flawed. He explains that he chose Kuru's
37:53windows since he hates him, and Kuru charges in with his hammer, but Wagari dodges all of his
37:58attacks, and cuts through even his clothes. He tells Kuru to stop acting righteous, because he's
38:04wicked by nature, and notes that he should be like Tsurugi, who doesn't go against his nature and acts
38:09like a true villain. They continue to clash, and Wagari can't stand to look at Kuru, since he reminds him
38:15of
38:15the masses who can't accept their mistakes. We learn that Wagari started an advice blog, where people tell
38:21him about their problems, but he gives them blunt advice, since he can't stand their nonsense. He thinks
38:27Kuru is just like them, and he slices through his shoulder, telling him to run away as he did in
38:31the
38:31past, but he refuses to give up. Tsurugi finds Soji, and attacks him with his flames, but Soji jumps away,
38:39telling him he'll make him pay for insulting his friends. Tsurugi reveals that he can sense people's
38:44negative emotions, so he knows that Wagari is destroying Kuru, and he thinks Kuru will run and
38:50beg for his life, but Soji tells him it will never happen. Kuru fights back, but Wagari easily overpowers
38:56him, and he falls into the water. Wagari tells him to admit defeat, and take back his warped idea of
39:02righteousness, but he refuses to do it and prepares to fight on. We see Renri as he meets Awada, who
39:08wants
39:09to defeat him to impress Eru, and he summons his cyber beast Teddy Kong. In a flashback, we learn
39:15that Awada always loved animals, but he couldn't afford to feed them since his family was poor,
39:20but Nonzo asks him about the virtual pet flying around his house. Nonzo realizes he was the one
39:25who summoned it, so he took him to the academy, where everyone is impressed by his ability to
39:30summon Teddy Kong. Nonzo realizes his cyberkinesis is extremely rare, so he invited him to join the
39:37academy, and told him he would get paid if he became an exorcist. We return to the present,
39:42as Awada mentions that Teddy Kong can crush boulders, so he thinks Renri doesn't stand a chance,
39:47but Renri is determined to find Kuru. In another flashback, we see Kuru as he meets Renri,
39:54who has a little brother named Rhoda, and their parents want them to awaken their psychokinesis.
39:58We learn that their families are toxic, since their relatives tortured them in the name of training,
40:03and Kuru complains about his parents' treatment. Years later, Renri's relatives think he and his
40:09brother are failures, since they still haven't awakened their psychokinesis. Their father decides
40:14to starve them for three days, since he thinks it will help them awaken their powers, and as they're
40:19locked up in their room, Rhoda tells Renri to take a good look at his face, and never forget about
40:24him.
40:25After three days, Rhoda starves to death, but their father thinks he's pathetic,
40:30since he was killed by a basic training ritual. Their relatives behave as if he never existed,
40:35and his father tells Renri to pretend that he never had a brother, but he doesn't want to forget
40:40about Rhoda. At night, Renri realizes that the bars on his window are being twisted,
40:45and he sees Kuru outside. He tells Renri to run away with him, since he's fed up with the way
40:50exorcist families treat their kids, so Renri escapes through the window, and they dye their hair so that
40:56their families won't recognize them. They join a gang and enjoy their life together, but after some
41:01time, Renri starts to cry, since he can't remember what Rhoda looks like. Kuru gives him a phone,
41:07and tells him to take pictures of the people he doesn't want to forget, since human memories fade
41:12with time, but photos can stay with them forever. He takes a picture of Kuru, and starts to treat him
41:18like family, so when he decides to return to the exorcist world, Renri follows him without
41:23hesitation. Back in the present, Iwata orders Teddy Kong to attack Renri, but he traps it in a window,
41:29and hits Iwata with a metal pipe. Nanzo panics as he gets knocked out, and Renri knows that Kuru
41:35is in danger, so he rushes to look for him. But that's where this video ends. Remember to like,
41:40and subscribe to the channel. Thanks for watching and I'll see you next time.
