She also supports her questions by stating he was awfully nice to Anya during the Traitor incident. Tsugumi questions whether Akane is romantically interested in someone or is naturally nice. She then calls out Tsugumi, ensuring that she is listening. She also explains that when one hits puberty, the weapon gene may make itself known. One theory is that a Demon Weapon could be born from a family that has the genetic trait. He assures her that if she does not find a reason within a year, he will find a reason for her.Īt the Academy, Tsugumi attends a class taught by Mira Naigus on the theories of how one could be a Demon Weapon. He remarks that she only joined the Academy two weeks ago and shouldn't rush into finding a reason. He holds her hand and asks, "Will you be mine?" While Tsugumi blushes and is lost in a love-story reverie, Akane then reveals he was just joking.

But in order to do so, after she goes into E.A.T., she needs to be near him. Class would be too much.Īkane says he will look out for Tsugumi, and watch over her should she ever get go into the E.A.T. She also says she could barely handle the Traitor incident and that the E.A.T. Class, in which Tsugumi denies strongly, stating it would kill her. She then apologizes, not wanting to turn the talk into a "sob session." Akane calls her "kind of cute" and asks If she intends on joining the E.A.T. Tsugumi admires Akane's reasoning, stating she only went to the DWMA cause she was a Demon Weapon and is unsure of what she wants to do in the future. Tsugumi wonders If Akane plans to go into the E.A.T. He found he could use what he learned to help others. Tsugumi found them pretty.Īkane resumes his explanation. He takes off his glasses, saying he normally wears glasses to conceal a certain eye trait within the clan, which was the stars in their eyes. Akane explained they were a group of assassins that were notorious for killing anyone for money.His family's dojo was a branch of the Star Clan. When Akane asked if Tsugumi has heard of the Star Clan, she said no. He was born into a family who ran a dojo that taught the Star Clan's Martial Arts. Akane reveals that his reasoning was for family reasons. Tsugumi then questions Akane's reasoning to join the academy. The Academy's motto is "A Sound Soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body." With that motto, it seems many people go to the DWMA in an effort ot become heroes capable of saving the world. Akane also explains that the reason people go the DWMA is not for Authority. Akane then somewhat agrees with her, explaining that the reason it's heaty is because how they manage their allowance is a quality a student is evaluated on. Tsugumi comments that peace seems rather costly with the Allowances they receive. Most countries affiliate themselves with DWMA because of the trust and the Academy prospers because of it. DWMA is a tremendously trusted organization. He also explains the DWMA is known as a World Police Force, Political Figures having been in the DWMA.

Akane explains that the DWMA is a great way to gain a career. Tsugumi asks what would be a meister's reason for joining the DWMA, despite the risks. She then asks If she could have a talk with him. When he question If something was wrong, Tsugumi denies. Akane appears, saying he noticed Tsugumi appears somewhat down. Tsugumi continues to ponder on her reason of being in the DWMA, trying to find a reason to encourage herself that she belongs. Both of them then leave to class, which is a meister class, leaving Tsugumi to herself. Meme says she's forgotten, and Anya refuses to reveal why she went to the DWMA. The girls then go to wash their faces.Īt the Cafeteria, Tsugumi ask both her meisters of their purpose in going to the DWMA. Tsugumi teases Anya, calling her a big eater despite her appearance. As Tsugumi greets her waking friends, Anya ask what they'll eat for breakfast. Anya and Meme would wake up shortly after she arrived back in her dorm. She gets up and takes a walk around the academy before going back into her room, finding herself homesick. She then awakes from the Nightmare, finding Meme sleeping beside her. She says no, as she cannot control her Transformation. She witnesses Anya killed by the Traitor. Tsugumi has a nightmare of the Traitor that she and her friends had encountered.
