Jingai Kyoushitsu no Ningengirai Kyoushi Ep.06 - First graduation! Now new students?
Episode 6 of Jingai Kyoushitsu no Ningengirai Kyoushi (人外教室の人間嫌い教師) closes the first story arc with a student, Kyouka Minazuki, graduating from the school and becoming human. This is an important moment for two reasons. First, it might explain to us how the whole system works. Second, it means we are likely going to see a new group of students joining the main cast.
The episode was centered on a final exam that all the students in the class must take in order to graduate. This is mandatory even though not everyone has enough points to graduate yet, such as Usami, who has a 150-point deduction due to the events of her story arc where she broke a series of rules.
The tasks are pretty mundane, such as "write a 30,000-character novel" or "write music and lyrics for a school song for next year". These are generally connected to the reasons why these students want to become human. The girls seem to make progress on them, except for Kyouka, who appears to be stuck on one issue.
Unfortunately, she is stubborn and unwilling to accept help from others, as she is worried about wasting their precious time. It takes Isaki’s "gal" personality (see the attached video) to push her enough to convince her to accept the help of everyone else, which was not against the rules. This leads to her finally being accepted for graduation in an emotional finale.
However, the episode ends there, which is why I am left with many questions. What happens to her now? She will become human, which is fine, but will she lose all memories of her time in this school or of her previous life? Does she incarnate at her current age, or does she revert to being a baby somewhere? I sure hope they do not gloss over these details next week, as I am curious to learn more about this system.
This also means that we are probably going to get a slew of new characters next week. The opening sequence shows a goth-clothed, black-haired beauty with animal ears and clear "yandere" vibes; a classic "drill-haired" ojousama with red and black horns; a smaller, gray-haired girl with obvious mouse ears; a green-haired fairy; and a gal-like girl with two strands of differently colored hair, pink and blue.
I can easily guess that the species of two of them are mouse and fairy, but what about the remaining three of them? Perhaps the goth girl is a cat, but I am really unsure about the other two. I guess that is something to look forward to next week.
