I wake once again to a sleepy morning
Eri no tai wo kitsuku shime
襟のタイをきつく締め
And carefully fasten my necktie
Kyoushitsu no doa kuguru to honno sukoshi
教室のドアくぐるとほんの少し
As I pass the door to the classroom
Mune wo hatte arukidaseru
胸を張って歩き出せる
I walk with my chest held just a little high
Sonna nichijou ni fukinukeru kaze
そんな日常に吹き抜ける風
The wind blows through the days spent just like this
Kikoeta ki ga shita
聞こえた気がした
I thought that I heard it
Kanjita ki ga shita n da
感じた気がしたんだ
I thought that I felt it
Furuedasu ima kono mune de
震え出す今この胸で
Now, with these hands that tremble
Mou kuru ki ga shita
もう来る気がした
I felt it would happen soon

幾億の星が消え去ってくのを
I watched the millions of stars as they disappeared
Miokutta te wo futta
見送った 手を振った
And waved them goodbye
Yokatta ne, to
よかったね、と
So happy for them
I'm TK. I'm goin' my way.
Anti-Angel Operations Headquarters
This is the reason I've gathered you all here.
We will now commence Operation High-Tension Syndrome!
Ope erati ion
Operation
High-Tension Syndrome
Operation
High-Tension Syndrome
Huh?
Why isn't anyone reacting?!
So this is a new operation for us, isn't it?
Yep, I just came up with it.
Yurippe, what kind of operation is it?
It's very simple.
We just perform high-tension activities all day.
That's all.
Huh?!
Operation
High-Tension Syndrome
Everything we do must be high-tension.
When you're going somewhere, do it at a full sprint.
When you drink something, you have to chug.
When you have a conversation, be sure to shout.
And don't forget to smile.
That's how we'll keep everything high-tension.
We'll make it seem like we're having the best school life ever.
And what will that accomplish?
I mean, won't we disappear if we have our fill of normal life?
No, we won't disappear.
Just like the operation's name, we'll be so strung up it'll look like we're mentally ill.
This is almost like a punishment!
What? What gives?
How foolish.
Yes.
This will certainly be difficult for us.
But Tenshi is a very simple soul.
So she'll wonder why we won't disappear even though we're having such fun living such a fulfilled school life.
She'll be sure to find it strange.
At that point, what do you think she'll do?
You think she'll do anything?
Of course she will!
We'll be enjoying our school lives.
That's supposed to be the condition for us to move on.
Yet, we aren't disappearing.
"What's going on here?!"
She'll begin panicking over this unprecedented irregularity.
At that point, she'll surely try to establish contact.
You don't mean...
Yes! With God!
She'll definitely try to tell him that something's wrong here.
If we follow her, then...
She'll lead us there!
To God!
This sounds like an incredible plan...
But how far do we need to go?
The operation will begin at 9:00 AM today.
We'll end at 9:00 PM.
Twelve hours?!
We only have to act high-tension in front of Tenshi, right?
That's easy. Yeah.
You never know when she might be watching. Do it all the time.
Come on dance around follow me, everybody.
Wait, so you mean we have to act high-tension for twelve straight hours?!
That's easy, alright everybody.
That's right, okay follow me. Hahaha, yeah.
Yep.
That's right, that's an easy dance.
Oh by the way, if you mess this operation up...
No food for a week.
What?!
My character could never do that. This is a terrible operation...
Incidentally, I'll just be in charge of monitoring Tenshi.
I'm counting on you all!
She's a demon!
I wonder if I have to play along too...
Alright.
Operation...
START!
Whoa, what's with these?!
So good! So damn good!
It's so good, I can't stop!
I've never had such delicious potato chips!
Hey, Hinata-senpai! Let's play!
A cute girl like me is inviting you to play, you lucky thing!
Come on!
That certainly does sound like fun, but unfortunately...
I'm gonna go play catch with Otonashi!
What?
Guys just can't help but want to play catch!
Then I'll go practice with GirlDeMo!
Since I love playing in a band!
Whoa!
Are you gonna compose an awesome love song?!
Yeah! I'll go compose the best love song you've ever heard!
Later!
Alright, Otonashi! Let's play catch!
Let's swat this puppy around!
Just thinking about it is so much fun!
I'm getting the shivers here!
S-Sure...
Wait just a minute!
Lemme play too!
Put that thing down!
What are you talking about?!
If both of you are gonna toss the ball around, having someone hit would make it even better is what I'm saying!
I didn't see that!
That sounds great!
That's why I told you to count me in!
Count me in!
Oh! Join on in!
You guys! Then you'll want someone in the field, right?!
Oh, Matsushida-godan! You've said it!
Yes! I'm in!
Would you allow me to join you as well?!
Whoa! You're totally ready for this!
I've been training my body for the sake of baseball!
So that's why?!
Damn, this is gonna be so damn awesome!
Alright, let's get to the field!
Yeah!
W-Wait a minute!
Hooh! Sexy, sexy, baby.
So what are you guys going to do?
Sexy.
Hey, Ooyama!
If you're that hungry, let's stuff ourselves at the cafeteria!
Yeah, I was waiting for you to ask!
TK, it'd be awesome if you could come with us!
How about it?!
Dive into your body!
I don't know what the hell you just said, but I'll take that as an okay!
Shiina, how about you?!
Wait, she's already gone!
Alright, let's get outta here!
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo...
We're gonna eat everything they've got!
Delicious! This is incredible!
Academy Cafeteria - Interior
This omelette rice is the best!
No way! The cafeteria's all about the udon!
Goddamn that's good!
Mmm, Szechuan Tofu Crazy Night!
Woohoooooo!
Oh no, I'm finished already!
I've gotta lick it all up!
Alright, I'm going for seconds!
That's nothing! I'm going for seconds too!
Szechuan Tofu gimme back!
Wahoohooo!
I'm so excited, I'm shaking!
Oh man, me too!
Me hoo! Mo hoooo!
Me too! I've been training my body for this!
You too right, Otonashi?!
Uh... yeah!
All of you. What are you doing?
Out of nowhere!
Baseball, man! Baseball!
That's what youth is all about!
Youth?
Right, guys?!
Youth!
Right?
Second period is about to start.
I forgot!
But that's nothing to worry about!
Studying is part of youth too!
You're coming to class?
Of course I am!
Right guys?!
Yeah! Youth is all about studying!
Forget about stupid baseball! Let's study!
It's time to learn!
Yes! I've trained my body for learning!
Studying! Studying! Studying! Studying!
Student Building B - Classroom
So... in 1858 during the Ansei Purge,
the Edo Bakufu's chief minister Ii Naosuke was-
Ii Naosuke, hell yeah!
W-What?
Sorry!
Ii Naosuke is a superhero of mine.
I couldn't help but get excited.
I see...
Honnoji...
When are we gonna get to the Incident at Honnoji?!
We've already covered that...
Akechi Mitsuhide!
Shorui Awaremi no Rei!
TL note: This was an edict issued by Tsunayoshi Shogun in 1687 that prohibited the killing of animals.
Talk about the Shorui Awaremi no Rei, Sensei!
What is it now?!
This is the time to discuss the Shorui Awaremi no Rei!
But we've already covered that too.
Edo... Bakufu...
Shut up over there!
You guys think you're Soga no Iruka?!
TL note: He tried to assassinate Prince Yamashiro in the Asuka period and rule the emperor's family.
Let's just focus on our Japanese history.
Was that supposed to sound clever?
That's right, Sensei!
Let's leave them alone and continue!
Please teach me more! I want to learn more!
Teach me! Hey, come on!
Okay, let's move onto the next page.
Student Building B - Classroom
In the French Revolutionary War, as a symbol of the privileged classes, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were-
Marie, hell yeah!
W-What?
Sorry!
Marie is just so moe to me that I couldn't help but get excited.
Moe?
She died a tragic death by the guillotine...
Steam engine...
When are we gonna get to the invention of the steam engine?!
It's already been invented...
Choo-choo! Choo-choo! Choo-choo!
Uh... steam trains haven't been invented yet...
The Second Punic War!
We need to learn about the Second Punic War, Sensei!
We've already covered that.
Punic... Bakufu...
There was never any such Bakufu.
Shut up over there!
You guys think you're Genghis Khan?!
Let's just focus on our world history.
I don't even know what's going on anymore.
Alright! This time, we're playing baseball for sure!
You guys ready?!
Of course we are! Baseball, go!
Bring it!
My body is on standby!
There's still cleaning to be done.
That's right!
Let's forget about our grief in death through cleaning!
Nice idea!
But we can't rely on easy tools like mops.
As men, we have to use dust cloths!
Yes!
Let's have a floor wiping battle!
I've trained my body to wipe floors!
The time to unseal my power has come!
They're just making it harder for themselves...
Here we go.
Rea-go!
Hey, false start!
Outta the way!
What the hell are you guys doing?
Uh... I think they've always been like this.
Don't worry about it.
I win!
Not so fast! There's still the second floor!
I've only just warmed up my body!
Alright, I won't lose the next one!
They actually look like they're having fun.
UTW Presents:
Student Building A - Unused Classroom
Hell yeah!
Wasn't that love song just perfect?! Damn!
That was some serious rock, yeah!
I just can't get enough of those touching lyrics!
I'm just a simple girl from Osaka.
In order to protect Osaka...
You have to follow your own path...
So she's shouldering Osaka all by herself?
What a woman.
Don't forget we're in the middle of Operation High-Tension Syndrome!
If we screw this up, we won't eat for a week!
Sounds good!
I know, right?!
Men and women all over the world will go crazy for Osaka!
Totally!
What a touching love song!
Yui, you're a genius!
Hisako-senpai, your killer bass and lyrics show even more genius!
I've always wondered what's going through your head!
Are you trying to pick a fight?!
T-Then how about we go outside and do an outdoor concert?!
Sounds good!
Oh man.
Academy Cafeteria - Interior
I ate way too much because it was so delicious.
Yeah.
After eating this much I should be able to last a week, right?
Yurippe's fasts mean no water too.
Whoa! Now that I'm full, I suddenly feel like moving around!
Let's go do some exercises to help the digestion!
Sounds good!
I know! Let's ask TK to teach us how to dance!
That's a great idea, man!
Hey, TK!
Stomach Destruction...
No time for destruction!
Come teach us how to dance!
We need a nice open area! Let's go to the grounds!
Sports Ground - Equipment Shed
What are you guys doing here?
What gives?
We're obviously doing an outdoor concert, hell yeah!
Sports Ground
Everyone's looking forward to it and gathering around!
Bring the noise, damn it!
We were about to play some ball here!
Hitting the ball, running, and fielding is what youth is all about!
You "I love playing in a band with all my friends" freak!
Bands are way more youthful than baseball!
You "I love baseball, baseball is awesome" moron!
Nuh-uh! Youth is all about dancing!
Dancing together is the happiest solution!
That's right! Happy dance!
What the hell?!
You guys look like you're full and happy!
Turning this place into a dance floor would make us all happy!
Dancing? Lemme in!
Matsushida-godan!
Since you're the happiest one around, I've got something to say to you!
It's gotta be baseball!
Exactly what Takamatsu said!
We're doing a concert!
You stupid or something?
We've gotta dance!
You don't look like you're dancing at all, but you sure seem happy!
Isn't that gap exactly what makes it thrilling?!
Then why don't we just make this a Sports Festival?!
A Sports Festival should be fine, right?
Most of the regular students are already here.
If you're looking for something to do with this many people, then it's gotta be a Sports Festival.
Hell yeah, a Sports Festival!
Smells like youth!
Yes, I've trained my body for Sports Festivals!
That should help my digestion!
We're gonna be totally happy now!
Yeah, yeah!
Let's hit it, you guys!

How is Tenshi?
Let's find out. Yurippe-san?
Yes. This is Yurippe on the scene~
Wait, what are you making me do?!
I guess you're being high-tension in your own way.
Student Building A - Student Council Room
It looks like Tenshi is discussing something in the Student Council Room.
She should be finished soon.
Oh man, those guys are incredible!
Yeah, I'm getting really fired up!
Listen up, you guys!
Whoever wins this cavalry game gets 1,000 points!
We're gonna turn it around now!
Hey, that team over there is kinda scary...
Huh? Where?
Hey! No weapons, no weapons!
Are you trying to kill us?!
Tch. No good?
Geez, those guys...
What's that?
The general's symbol.
I'll stand out more and capture more headbands than anyone else!
You bastards ready?!
Charge!
She must be getting more and more confused watching this spectacle from the Student Council Room.
She's probably wondering why they aren't disappearing despite their energy.
This is perfect.
Too perfect!
Operation High-Tension Syndrome!
So you're the villain?
Thank you for that high-tension jab.
Huh?
It's all ruined...
Miss President, you can't.
We aren't done yet!
I'll be right back.
Straight into the worst possible situation?!
What have you all been doing?
Look at this.
What about it?
It's CUTE!
What an idiot...
No intention to fight, huh?
How can I report this?
Report?!
What?
No way!
Guys, wake up!
We're going after her!
How weak are you guys?!
Medical Offices (After Hours)
What's going on?
I'm not sure.
But she said she was making a report.
Report? Don't tell me...
To God, right?
So you were right.
Having so many normal students down at once is definitely an unprecedented irregularity...
The SSS always made sure not to involve the NPCs.
But we broke that rule.
Regardless of the operation's outcome, we are still closing in on the goal of the SSS.
There's an entrance to the basement here?
Medical Offices - Basement (Entry Prohibited)
Could this be... the pathway to God?
A password?
This place has security as strong as the Guild.
There's no question about it.
God is waiting beyond that door.
Charge!
Anyone who doesn't make it will be left behind!
What is this place?
Wonderful.
It's so cute.
This is...
Hydroponic cultivation.
Yurippe, look at this.
Gardening Club
What?
Alright...
I was reminded of the turnips I had been raising for the now disbanded Gardening Club after hearing the word "cute"...
...so I snuck out in the middle of a meeting and came here...
How do I report that to the Student Council?
What the hell?!
Oh, everyone's here.
What was with the security at the entrance?!
Security?
Ah, we're finally in.
I didn't expect it to open with just the push of a button.
Huh? What about the password?!
Password?
Weren't you just punching it in a minute ago?!
I was just calculating the remaining funds of the Gardening Club...
A... A calculator?
Starting now, the Shinda Sekai Sensen...
...will fast for a week!
No!
One Week Later
Everyone... I'm sorry...
I've come this far alone to honor your memories...
But this is all...
I can take...
The GirlDeMo members have been wiped out.
It's not like they're really gonna die anyway.
You really do make the best villain of all, Yurippe-san.
