After what seems to be an eternity have passed, with such different personalities with different stories to tell coming through to tell their tales about landing on this mysterious land and learning about the stone-cold fact that they have no choice but to live here, 250+ individuals have drawn interest on working out themselves and to their peers as they all intent to attend this unique and enormous academy known as Kindangakkou Academy.
Adding to its uniqueness, the question of who built or own the place is a mystery of its own as these people personally worked themselves on making this academy, a living institution. But nevertheless, after a few months of meeting with one another to make this plan, it all worked out as they have successfully made it to fruition.
The adult ones, who will act as their teachers, announced to the younger crowd that they have decided to divide them all into three sections consisting of 75 students each per class to avoid any unnecessary mishaps occurring in the future.
To many, it was an excited news because they will actually meet new friends during the school year despite being in this land for several months but regardless of the mystique of every individual that they saw, they were all glee with joy to hear such an announcement. But to some, it's all but fun and games for them and to learn that they have to go back into school makes their stomach churned in disappointment. Although, a few of these individuals, did not care overall, as if they have nothing to do with their life in their past endeavors or they just have hidden agendas sprouting in their minds.
Despite these mixed reactions, all is set for the academy to begin its welcoming ceremony on the next day.
Class A – 8:00AM – Homeroom Class
The students heard a loud footstep coming through the door and once that door opened, they immediately stood up and greeted the teacher, who was prominently built as a muscle rather than a teacher himself and dons a black suit, looking like he was a spy, who turns out that he was actually an agent from Japan's Ministry of Defense.
The teacher gestured for them to sit down as they obliged while he stacks the documents and paraphernalia that could be essential for the homeroom and looked at every individual in the class earnestly. Meanwhile, he somewhat curled his lip and smirked after seeing some familiar individuals in the class but went back on business immediately.
"Good morning, class." He broke the ice. "It's quite an interesting and surreal few months that we are currently experiencing and as of this day, we are still questioning what kind of anomaly has sent us in this peculiar land. But nevertheless, here we are, still breathing normally and comfortably and nothing have happened significantly in these past few months."
"Before we introduced ourselves, I'll be disclosing some information and guidelines about the class for you all to digest carefully." The teacher said before he could pick up a clipboard, containing the information that they need to disseminate to their students.
Number one: The class that the students are currently in is only temporary until the teachers have finalized the list of students who will be in that certain class. If interested, there are sets of criteria that have been put on by the teachers on how a student will be assigned to that class. Also, this applies to teachers as well.
"It means that your current class is only temporary and some of you might change class while some will retain their positions in this class depending on the criteria that we have given out. So, you are currently in Class A and your class will be called 'Alpha', and that doesn't mean you're the strongest class here, so hence, the temporary list has been set on the bulletin board outside. The same rule also applies to us, teachers, meaning that we are your temporary teachers for homeroom as we are all still finalizing all the details regarding the classes."
Number two: Subjects from Japan are also applied here; therefore, everyone should attend the classes accordingly to avoid any inconvenience. Any additional subjects might be added in the future without further notice.
"The second guideline is that if you are familiar with subjects back in your schools in Japan then might as well learn the same subjects here. If anything, else, new subjects might be added some time, it could be your strong suit or not, but we still have to wait for anything to happen."
Number three: For this week, students have no classes to attend to. If an announcement is imminent, call the students and call them back in the class ASAP to disseminate the information.
"Since we're in the beginning phase, the teachers are also assessing the schedules of your subjects. So, it pretty much means that you're all free to do whatever you want to do but remember that when an announcement has been made from the megaphones installed outside of the academy, please do enter the class immediately."
"That's all for the guidelines and if anyone has questions, feel free to ask right after I called your names. But first, let me introduce myself." The teacher said as he picked up a piece of chalk and wrote down his name on the board to let them know his name.
"I am Tadaomi Karasuma, your temporary homeroom teacher, please to meet you all." The teacher introduced himself in a friendly manner and as he drops the chalk, he then brought another clipboard to unveil the temporary list of the current class. "Okay, I'll begin to call everyone's names, so please listen attentively."
Aiura, Mikoto
"Present!"
Aizawa, Tomo
"Present!"
Karasuma smirked when he saw one of the familiar names and faces that he quickly recognizes.
Akabane, Karma
"I'm here, Karasuma-sensei!" Karma spoke, returning the smirk while his feet were resting on the table in front of him, not even caring about the eyes that were glancing over him.
"Still the Karma that I know…" Karasuma muttered and continued the roll call.
Alcott, Cecilia
"Present."
Asahina, Mikuru
"Sensei, present!" She shouted, causing everyone to look at her, and was too embarrassed to look back.
"Uh-huh…" Karasuma muttered.
Ayasaki, Remi
"Present!"
Azusagawa, Sakuta
"Present." The delinquent spoke lazily.
Chidori, Kaname
"Present!"
Dola, Stephanie
"Present!"
Filo
"I'm here! Hehehe…" She chuckled.
Karasuma was baffled when he saw the kid with wings, questioning himself if she is an actual student but he ignored the assumption anyways, continuing his name-calling.
Fold, Scott
"Present."
Fushiguro, Megumi
"Present."
Futaba, Rio
"Present."
Gokou, Ruri
"Present."
Goto, Hitori
"Hitori?" The teacher called the name once again.
But when he looked over, he saw a large ice cube, that covered the pink-haired girl, who turned out to be Hitori. This garnered much attention in the class as a red-haired girl stood up and produce an ice pick to stab the hard ice until it broke on its own.
Hitori gasped loudly and coughed violently as her breathing difficulties were alluded to by the grasp of the presumable friend of Hitori...
"Sensei, she was too frozen to say present. So, I'll say it on her behalf." The red-haired girl individual quipped to Karasuma, causing some students to chuckle at the statement from the girl.
"Sure…" Karasuma nodded as he ignored the fact that a block of ice just covered a human being for no reason.
Gundo, Misuzu
"Present."
Hachimitsu, Yui
"Present."
Hagimura, Suzu
"Present!"
Hikigaya, Hachiman
"Present."
Hirata, Yosuke

Hori, Kyoko
"Present!"
Ichinose, Chizuru
"Present!"
Without realizing it, Karasuma was totally staring at the girl, who was actually quite attractive given her figure and aura while the whole class was cooing at the presence of the girl. Karasuma almost got caught off-guard by the unnecessary alluring presence and continued his attendance.
Iino, Miko
"Present!"
Imamura, Kouhei
"Present!"
Inoue, Takina
"Present, sensei!" She saluted to the teacher, who casually salutes back to her.
"She must be a cadet of some sort…" He assumed.
Inuyama, Aoi
"Present!"
Ishigami, Yu
"Present."
Iura, Shu
"Present."
Izumi, Yuu
"Prese—OUCH!" He spoke before his hand hit the table underneath him.
"Are you okay?" Karasuma asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine, sensei! It's probably my luck still in bad shape." He replied while attending to his hand.
Nadeshiko, Kagamihara
"PREEESENT!"
"That one is energetic…" He thought.
Kamazuki, Suzuno
"Present."
Kanda, Sorata
"Present!"
Kawasaki, Saki
"Present."
Kayano, Kaede
He smiled when he called out the name of the green-haired petite.
"Present, Karasuma-sensei!" She greeted and waved at him.
Kiya, Ikuyo
"Present!" She exclaimed. "I'm Hitori-san's friend, nice to meet you, sensei!"
"Oh, nice to meet you as well." Karasuma returns the greeting back to the ecstatic girl.
Kotegawa, Chisa
"Present."
Kotobuki, Tsumugi
"Present!"
"What in the hell are that eyebrows? It looks like a piece of chip…" He thought when he sights those thick eyebrows from her.
Kousaka, Kirino
"Present!"
Kubota, Junichiro
"Present."
Kuboyasu, Aren
"Present."
Kujo, Karen
"PRESENT!" She shouted as she spoke in a clear and fluent English accent, much to the shock of everybody.
"An English student, interesting…" He said mentally.
Kyon
"Present."
"Kyon-kun, do you have any last name?"
"I don't have any, sensei." He replied.
"Okay…"
Mankanshoku, Mako
"Present!" She stood up and joyously waved her hand in the air.
Maru, Chizuru
"Present."
Megumin
"Present!"
Momonga
"Present."
Karasuma looked baffled at the presence of the only demon-looking individual in the class but disregard it nevertheless and resumed his roll call.
Nakano, Azusa
"Present!"
Nakano, Ichika
"Present!"
Nakano, Itsuki
"Present!"
"Can I ask, are the three of you, sisters?" Karasuma asked the three Nakanos.
Azusa raised her hand. "As much as I would love to be their young sister, I'm not their sister."
"She's right." Itsuki nodded while Ichika chuckled at the fact that the young Azusa is willing to be their young sister.
Nanami, Mami
"Present."
Nase, Mitsuki
"Present."
Nishikigi, Chisato
"Present!"
Raphtalia
"Present, sensei!"
Rayford, Re=L
"Present."
"Is this your given name?"
"Yes, sensei. Sensei gave the name to me."
"Which one?"
"I forgot."
Some students chuckled at how mindless of a response was given to Karasuma, who sighed and just wants to let the blunder go away.
Ryuuguuin, Seiya
"Present." He said then raised his hand to gain the attention of the teacher.
"Yes, what is it?"
He firstly looks around at his vicinity, observing his colleagues, and asked Karasuma.
"Are they aliens?"
"No. But from the looks of it, there's a possibility that one of them is."
"Can I use my powers?"
"Does it work?"
"Can you try?"
Seiya then raised his arm to expect to show a flame on the palm of his hand but nothing happened as he sighed.
"Well, that rests the case," Karasuma said, continuing the flow of the introductions.
Saiki, Kusuo
The pink-haired individual did not speak as he instead brought out a small board of his and wrote 'Present.", indicating that he could not speak.
Karasuma checked the name of the deaf student anyways. But without the knowledge of his teacher, Saiki wrote more on the board and it reads 'Right after I landed in this place, I could not show any resentments to anything. But this is fine, I guess…'
Sakura, Airi
"P-Present!"
Sawamura, Eriri Spencer
"Present."
Serebryakova, Viktoriya Ivanovna
"How do you pronounce your name?"
The girl in her military uniform stood up.
"You can just call me Visha, sir!" She saluted the teacher and sat back down on her chair.
"Alright, Visha-san."
"How ridiculous of a name that it is, maybe Irina can speak to her." He thought.
Shima, Rin
"Present."
Shinonono, Houki
"Present!"
Shiota, Nagisa
His smile widened after seeing the name and the face of one of his favorite students back in Japan as the blue-haired boy chuckled and waved at him.
"Present, sensei! It's been a long time, huh?"
"Yes, definitely." Karasuma nodded.
Shiraha Ainsworth, Raphiel
"Present!"
Shirogane, Miyuki
"Present!" He said before he raised his hand to ask a question until Karasuma noticed the hoisting arm. "Is it possible now to make an election for the class?"
"As of now, since we're still finalizing everything, we could not conduct any activities until all is resolved and finalized."
"Understand, sensei."
Shirogane, Kei
"Present!"
"Are you two siblings?"
"Yes, sensei. We are, in fact, siblings." Miyuki answered on her behalf, causing her to become annoyed at him.
"What do you mean by 'in fact'?" She reacted violently.
"Hey, now, sensei is looking at us."
Kei realized the situation quickly as she bowed down. "Sorry, sensei!"
Soryuuin, Akemi
"Present!" Akemi exclaimed as her eyes shaped like hearts after seeing the physical build of Karasuma. "Hehehe…"
Karasuma raised an eyebrow but decides not to ask anything as he continues to list down the remaining uncalled students.
Tainaka, Ritsu
"Present!"
Uesugi, Fuutaro
"Present."
Wang, Teria
"Present!"
Yoshiwara, Aina
"Present!"
Yuigahama, Yui
"Present!"
Yukinoshita, Yukino
"Present."
Yusa, Emi
"Present!"
Karasuma breathed heavily as he was done calling students on the clipboard and putting it aside on the table.
"Alright, students. I think we don't have anything to discuss for this time unless an announcement has been raised by the megaphone, you can do anything that you want for the rest of the day. Meet your classmates or your friends and go have some fun."
Karasuma grabbed the stuff on the table and looks back to his students to add one more order.
"If you have any questions, you can just look out to me at the teachers' lounge. Got it?"
"YES, SENSEI!"
"That's it for now. Goodbye."
Everyone stood up and bowed their heads to return the greeting to Karasuma, who immediately left the room, causing everyone to begin talking with each other. Some didn't change positions while others stood up and went to their well-known friends to talk.
"Ha! I knew I was going to be in a class with the ones I have known!" Karma cried, huddling up his arms on the shoulders of both Nagisa and Kaede, who were flattered by how Karma missed them in an indirect approach.
"Yeah, I know! But you heard Karasuma-sensei, this batch will only last for a week." Nagisa replied sheepishly, knowing that it would already spoil the fun for the delinquent.
"But who knows? We could still be classmates next week but I get that feeling already." Kaede also added another comment but her attention changed from her friends to her temporary classmates, who were mingling with each other while the others, were not so much. But she did notice an interesting observation of some individuals, who were silently sitting on their chairs.
"Is it me that the ones with pink hair are the silent ones here?" Kaede asked the boys, who were now focused on the said individuals.
"You're right. Airi, Saiki, and Hitori are all pink-haired, alright. Great observation." Nagisa said, commending the only girl in their group, who got flustered by the compliment.
"Hey, guys! I have an idea! How about we throw those three and make them compete on whoever speaks first, gets a special prize! I'm betting on that Hitori girl!" Karma quipped.
"Karma, that's mean." Nagisa scolded his best friend, causing for him to smirk.
"Like always, Nagisa."
Meanwhile, somewhere further in the back, Saiki overheard the conversation between the trio and could only frown in response but quickly took his marker and wrote something to the board, completely showing it to the camera.
'I know I don't have any telepathic power anymore but that delinquent surely knows how to read his environment. I'm impressed…'
On the other side of the room, one Eriri Spencer Sawamura was on her own and felt alone but one thing came up to her mind when the time comes like this – bringing art materials to draw something to ail that lonely tension. She then began scribbling on what seemed to be a figure of a human.
However, one blonde girl took an interest in watching her drawing in progress as her head poked into her table, causing for Eriri to halt her process with a frown on her face.
"Hey, what's the matter with you? Do you have any manners?" She asked the blonde girl.
"Uhm, may I ask what are drawing on your book?" She answered with a question as well.
"Well, before I answer that, may I ask how old are you?"
"I'm 16."
"Ohhh… which makes us both 16, so I guess I'll let it slide and answer your question." Eriri put down her drawing pen and showed the illustration that she is currently drawing. "It's supposed to be a female human figure but I couldn't quite find a perfect reference for this figure."
"So… are you, by chance, an artist?"
"Well, you could say that," Eriri answered.
"Alright. But can I ask? Can you draw…" The blonde girl began to stumble on her wording as if she was forbidden to say the word to anyone.
"Draw what? I can draw, like, anything!"
"C-Can you draw a-a-an… eroge?"
Eriri's eyes widened after hearing a word that is completely associated with her all the time. She couldn't digest it at first because this one stranger just asks her to draw a mature figure.
"Wait for a second, you know eroge?" Eriri asked as the blonde nodded immediately. "What is, if you have one, your favorite series?"
"Well… It's…" The blonde made her way beside Eriri's ear to whisper. "Let's Make Love With Little Sister!"
Eriri's eyes went wider than before as if she was shocked that someone in this class knows or plays the game that contained such controversial content.
"What? Did I hear that, right?" Eriri asked again.
"Y-Yeah… I think it's okay now to confess since my brother's not here in the same class with me and we're in a different universe now."
"Wow… I have never thought of someone liking that at your age… what's the reason that you like it?"
"U-Uhhh… I-I-I think the story's pretty interesting…" She muttered as Eriri saw the nervousness in her voice as she fully nodded in understanding.
"Maybe she has a brother complex? Or rather, maybe she has a full collection of it? I mean, it's possible and also impossible… right?" Eriri muttered the thought inside of her mind.
"Ah… right, the story is people's major preference when it comes to choosing their favorites, right?" Eriri answered properly despite wanting to ask more. "Oh, by the way, haven't asked your name. I'm Eriri Spencer Sawamura."
"Kirino Kousaka." She introduced herself as she offered a hand to Eriri, who gladly accepted the gesture.
"You know what? I haven't heard that game for a while, so I'm giving you a chance to see my work in progress!" Eriri said, offering a free live viewing of his art in progress.
"Oh, really?!" Kirino was elated after hearing the offer from the artist herself.
"Yeah, sure, since my mind's been blank today on what to draw this time."
"Right! Thank you—" Kirino was supposed to say thank you but a shadow interrupted the thanking part. When she turns around, she was not surprised to see a familiar face in front of her. "Kuroneko…"
"Kuroneko?" Eriri also turned around to see an individual who actually donned a gothic attire as she faces both Kirino and Eriri.
"You've found a new friend, huh? How pathetic that you need to rely on someone rather than your brother, who always cares for you."
Kirino's face turned tomato red after hearing an embarrassing assertion from her assumingly friend as she quickly covers the mouth of 'Kuroneko' to avoid any additional spilling of the hidden beans in her mouth.
"You better shut up…" She muttered.
"Who is she?" Eriri curiously asked.
"Her? Oh, this is Kuroneko. She also has a real name and her name is Ruri Gokou. She is a cosplayer at her apex while being great at role-playing and also has a favorite anime and it's called—"
Suddenly, Ruri gasped and covered Kirino's mouth to cover her blabbering mouth.
"Do you wanna die in front of someone who just became your friend?!" She threatens Kirino menacingly while Eriri was unamused by this banter thrown by these two, asking herself if it is worth the time to interact with them.
Meanwhile, a young petite approached a gloomy-looking boy, who was reading something at his desk as she tries to spark a conversation with him.
"Oi, Ishigami." She called.
"Yeah? What is it, Miko?" Ishigami asked the petite girl named Miko.
"Is it just me that this school is way too busy to run a whole day?" Miko asked.
"Yeah, it is. Did you find something troubling?"
"Well, every corner seems to have a moment that can cause disruption and I want to scold them but since elections don't come sooner, then this class could be chaotic as expected," Miko answered with a pinch of fear hinting in her tone. She then sights two men, who were arguing with each other but gladly that one Miyuki Shirogane took things under his control and used their heads to reconcile with each other.
"I mean not everything is as chaotic as you expect it to be." Ishigami removed his focus on what he currently read to turn around to see different individuals doing different interactions. For example, one named Yui Hachimitsu was in a staring contest with Misuzu Gundou, while on the other hand, there was Rin Shima, Nadeshiko Kagamihara, and Aoi Inuyama were eating noodles while talking to each other. "It's quite chaotic but neutral in a sense of order, I mean it's called chaotic neutral, by the way."
"Oh, boy, this week can be chaotic and can be innocuous at the same time but how these guys can control it without any proper guidance and self-discipline?!" She complained.
"Don't fret, Karasuma-sensei told us about the announcements should be disseminated immediately, and if one of those is your wishes, then good for you," Ishigami said reassuringly. "Just let them be themselves."
Miko was somehow baffled by how her colleague answered her with a proper approach, wasn't she in a nightmare? Or did she just hear Ishigami saying words that can be felt comfortable to her?
But in all fairness, everything seemed to be fine in their current state, where they are far away from their lovely planet Earth. Everyone seems fine and did not have complaints about this new living that they're currently in. Was Miko doubting this whole situation? But Miko needs to reassess the situation more to feel that she was in her comfort, where everyone was disciplined and respectful, but this might take a little longer as she sighed, relenting on trying to spoil their own fun.
"I'll guess I'll be back on my seat now." She said.
"Sure…" Ishigami said as he went back to reading while Miko went back to her seat.
A/N: As much as I would like to have more interactions with all of the characters, I wanted to focus on what every class will be like with different personalities in each room, separating from their friends or in any relationships. But so far, they're a few lucky ones that made it to the cut; however, it will only last for a week!
In the next chapter, we will turn the attention to the next batch of students and the teacher who will temporarily hold the Homeroom.
Any suggestions for interactions between characters or any complaints? Let me know!
But for now, this is it! And I'll see ya soon!
