Kukuru and Wagari are fighting near the hot springs!
Man, Kasubata's dead meat.
Guess I'd better bail him out again.
Hey, it's Urusugawa-chan!
Hugs time!
Kusaba?!
Are you going to see Kasubata-kun?
I won't let you!
Eru Kusaba...
A self-declared "romantic" who's actually a walking minefield.
She falls head-over-heels for any guy who catches her eye,
then scours the net and uses sock puppets to find out his likes and dislikes.
And once she knows everything about him, she morphs herself into his ideal woman!
She's currently on look number twelve!
Cyber out.

When I step on a mine, I can bring out 120% of the power of a man I've won over.

She hits fast... and hard!
Even guarding with my goo, she throws hands like a man!
By the way, the moment he returns my affection, I lose all interest.
Maybe I only live for the love of the chase.
Lame
That's just the kind of girl I am!
Targeting me so I can't get to Kasubata sounds like playing decoy for your leader.
I didn't think 1-A was into teamwork!
Oh, you've got it all wrong!
Wagari-san's just so much stronger, Kasubata-kun's guaranteed to lose.
Which means...
Kasubata! Speak to me!
Urusugawa... You patched me up?
And then he might totally end up falling for you, right?!
I can't let that happen! Not ever!
Can't you get your brain out of the gutter for once?!

Damn. I spent a ton of spirit power cushioning my fall.
But the goo should have her pinned, so...
Her clothes?

The camera drones can't see us indoors either!
Besides...
This is a changing room, isn't it?
Oh?
You sure you want to drop your guard?
I'll beat you down even worse than last time
so Kasubata-kun will never be attracted to you!
He isn't anyway!
Why do you even like him so much?!
Kasubata-kun...
Those piercing eyes! That wild masculinity seething beneath his serious exterior!
You know, Enishiro-kun's pretty hot, too.
When they're together, it's just not fair!
You've got rotten taste!
You can't even stick to a single guy!
This is what you looked like when you first came to school!
Did you go with the black hair to match Kasubata?
There's not a single part of you that's really you!
What are you into, Kusaba-san?
What about you?
I like tennis.
So do I!
I love pickled sea cucumber.
What a grandpa, right?
No, I love sea pineapple!
She's changing her interests again.
She's got a new man every day.
Like changing phone cases.
It's all me!
I was serious about all of them!
I'm just trying to be honest to whatever moves my heart!
You're just a self-repressing stalker, Urusugawa-chan!
Screw you!
Die!
Urusugawa-chan...
Look at this.
I did it...
With your fave, Kureha-kun.

Good thing I shopped that up in advance.
A twofer of physical and mental trauma.
She'll be totally demoralized now!
Your fave isn't even my type!
She thinks she's so great just because her family's rich.
She sucks.
She gets whatever she asks for.
Even the teachers favor her.

This world is shit, but at least I have my fave.
He exists here in the same world.
That was enough to keep me going.
Kureha-kun's bass playing resonated inside me, kept me warm.
A rope made of goo?!
How did she recover so quickly?
I knew that was a shop job!
It took me out for a second,
But did you think I wouldn't recognize the selfie of him alone in bed
that he posted to his Insta last year on March 2nd at 1:18 AM?!
I stared at it over and over...
imagining I was in that bed with him!
Don't underestimate a full-time fangirl!
She... She's just like me!
A total romantic!
Besides...
What the...
All of a sudden, my phone just...
What did I just do?
Hey, there!
It's not safe for a girl to be out alone at this hour.
Can I take you home?
Buzz off. I don't do the sugar daddy thing.
D-D-D... Daddy?!
Kiyomi Urusugawa-san.
That girl went to the hospital earlier.
I-I didn't mean to! She just kept mouthing off, so I wished she was dead.
A-And then... it just...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
What is that?
A special power only you and I can see.
You've unlocked an incredible talent.
Your classmate is fine.
There are lots of other kids like you.
You've got cyberkinesis.
Cyberkinesis?
Would you like some training to keep it under control?
You'll be with people like you.
It's not just about my fave.
I can't afford to lose!
Neither can I!
Don't underestimate me!
Right back at you!
At this rate...
I'll run out of battery!
Damn it! Any more of this and...
I'm going to pass out!
Cyber off!
Can't move another muscle.
Me either.

You're good, Kusaba.
I take back what I said about you not being you. And having a gutter-brain.
You're strong, too. I'm sorry I said you were self-repressing.
Also... I've never actually d-done it.
Kiyomi Urusugawa Eru Kusaba
Out of the fight
One win, one draw.
Class 1-B is in the lead.
Quite a turnabout from the last A-B Battle.
Class A, under the great Wagari, is losing ground.
Azaki-sensei, it's too early to declare victory.
You know, Nanzo-sensei, this really isn't about me and you.
Sheesh. And you so used to look up to me, too.
P-Principal!
I'm picking up a ghost account in the fake Kusatsu, yes!
A ghost account?
It's very faint, but yes!
Azaki-sensei, is this another ridiculous "surprise" of yours?
Heck no.
Principal, we should investigate.
Contact all staff on the premises.
R-Right!
It doesn't seem like Nanzo-kun or the school set this up.
What's going down over there?
Yeah, it's no use.
I can't stop shaking.
I suck. I really suck.
I...
What's going on?!
I'm not hitting him!
My flames aren't even grazing him!
What...
What's he been doing these last two weeks?!
Azaki-sensei.
There's something I want you to teach me.
Well?
Teach me, Azaki-sensei...
how to use cyberkinesis without a phone!
You can't do that.
But Surugi does it!
Oh, I hear you.
That's right.
It's a bit early, but you might be ready to move on to the next stage.
The next stage?
Listen up. Standard practice is to cyber out directly from your phone.
However...
You can also run spirit power through your smartphone
and back into your body instead of outputting it.
B-Back into your body?
Then you can release the output elsewhere.
Focus on the flow of spirit power in the pit of your stomach.
Not working...
Train hard enough, and you won't have to hold it.
You can just have your phone in contact with your body somewhere.
Your Onipien...
will be able to burn more freely than before!
I had the laboratory division make a smartphone holster for me.
My spirit power's coursing through my body!
What's wrong?
Try harder.
Enflame: Eye!

Thank you, Sensei!
With both hands free, you can integrate more variety into your attacks, Aori-chan!
Thank you, Master!
Why can't I hit him?!
If I can't hit him, then...
Hit me more! More!
Harder, Enishiro...
Harder, harder, harder... Harder, harder, harder!
Enishiro, harder!
Here we go!
Gotcha!
Letting you fry me was worth it!
Let's hear you scream!
Enflame: Shoulder!
Enflame
Shoulder
Nullify Flame Damage!
You'll need a stronger flame than that to burn me.
Well, do you give up yet?
Th-That doesn't feel good... at all.
You're just strong now.
It just hurts!
It doesn't feel like anything!
Because it's not infused with hatred for me!
Love and hate are the same thing.
They're both strong emotions!
Dei Surugi To: atggldq HOLY SHIT UR UGLY LOLOLOL GUESS THEY LET ANYONE BE AN IDOL THESE DAYS WHAT ARE YOU A BEHEMOTH
So many people hate me online.
Mayolar To: sO.nWpYzU Reported
Sayaka-chan stan To: sO.nWpYzU Who the hell is this guy? Pretty sad to get your kicks riling people up online
My only regret is that I can't see their faces.
Pavlov-san To: sO.nWpYzU Nobody likes you
More... More...
Oh, shit!
Hate me more!
You're trash.
Being in a class with filth like you
goes against every righteous fiber of my being.
But you shouldn't change.
You're better than someone who pretends to be good.
Actually, I like you!
Getting love and hate at the same time...
I'd never felt that before!
Such ecstasy!
C'mon, Enishiro! You hate me, don't you?!
Remember when I torched that thing you care about?!
Hit me with that anger and sadness like you did then!
Make me come!
I don't have time for this, weirdo.
Disinterest?
Let's just end this.
Enflame: Leg!
With my enflamed super-jump, I can go fifty meters high!
I'll show you one more thing you're lacking!
A special move!
A flame-powered kick with the power of gravity behind it...
Onibi Skill: Flames Falling from Heaven!
Unbelievable.
I've made it clear I'm better than him. Why does he keep fighting?
Kukuru!
Ren!
I came to save you!
Now it's two on one!
Five Minutes Earlier
Kukuru! Please be safe!
There's a member of Class A whose cyberkinesis you don't know?
That's right. He didn't participate in the last A-B Battle.
He sat out to keep the numbers even.
Kiri Namekawa. Be careful if you run into him.
You don't know what he might do.
Cyber out...
Hypnosis App.
May I introduce myself?
I'm Kiri Namekawa.
My hobbies are watching insects and creating fake news.
There's nothing more fun than watching low-information readers
believe lies and do what I want.
It's a lot like watching insects.
Cyberkinesis: Hypnosis App.
If a target looks at my screen, I can make them follow my orders.
Order: Attack Kukuru Kasubata.
Order
Attack Kukuru Kasubata
I... stabbed Kukuru?
K-Kukuru...
Does that take them both out of the battle now, Wagari?
I thought this might be you.
It's not the conclusion I wanted.
I really dislike you, Namekawa-kun.
I personally like you, Wagari.
You smell good. Like the paste we used in kindergarten.
Well, let's clean up the rest of them.
We'll find the doll-user in hiding, the coward, and...
It's not...
It's not over yet, Wagari.
What?
I personally find this irritating.
You should be controlled.
Don't look, Kukuru!
Don't look at it!
Order
Order: Dance to death.
Dance to death
Wahoo-hoo-hoo!
A sloppy technique can be turned back on its user.
You caught him off guard with a roar,
forcibly canceling his cyberkinesis, which was unstable following output.
So you still have some life left in you.
A slice of true conviction in that warped righteousness of yours.
If I can't cut through to your mind, this time, I'll sever your limbs
and render you physically incapable of fighting!
I can't escape with my windows now.
Don't die, Kukuru! Just surrender instead!
Azaki-sensei, you're watching, right?!
Declare him out of the fight!
Azaki!
Azaki-sensei! Are you trying to kill your student?
Azaki!
Azaki-sensei!
Shut up!
You're all pathetic.
If this fight ends now, it's the end of me, too.
Kukuru... why are you so desperate?
I can't deny I thought it was only natural I lost last time.
I'm on my last legs in terms of output.
Cyber out.
Kukuru...
Is that...
