teach me how to get through the end without crying pls. I want to watch it again multiple times but always back off cus the end is soooooooooo frickin painful
i love all of nagisa’s fight scenes. he’s definitely no fighter, but an assassin, looking for that one weak spot. it’s one of the reasons why karma and nagisa’s fight is my favorite. the contrast between the two styles...muah. chef’s kiss. both geniuses, both approaching a kill in a different way.
This is how a lot of the fight scenes go in Assassination Classroom. Often the person whose side we're on is the one struggling the most throughout the fight, but eventually they find that right opening to strike. The biggest example is probably Koro Sensei's first fight with Itona. He struggles a lot at first, but towards the end develops a strategy that catches Itona off guard, leading to Koro's victory. It's a great way to showcase how power isn't all that makes a fight, & ties in very well with the theme of power present throughout the series.
I love the implications of "Killing Intent", between Nagisa and the Principal. Nagisa is symbolized by a snake, something quick, agile, and tends to move his knife to the most vital spots. The Principal's centipedes represent a similar thing to killer intent, used as force of subjugation by fear. Fun fact, there are those that believe individuals that enjoy scaring others are reincarnated as centipedes.
Also some snakes are often know for hiding in plain sight, which Nagisa replicates rather well with him being able to act like a normal person until just the right moment to.... *STRIKE!*
Ayo, that snake vs centipede theme is very prominent in the game Sekiro, with snakes being closest to dragons and centipedes being "imposter" dragons, essentially.
Bro "killing intent" who tf can feel it bro, if a person with a knife just walks up to you with a smile you just gonna stand there like a literal dummy?
@@ichathesleepless between him and Nagisa this would have been an incident. Karma is strong enough and belligerent enough to rule him up, and Nagisa would have recognized the opening before Takaoka had a chance to react.
To the people confused why he said “I don’t need to fight him, just kill him”, it means several things. Killing people is easier in a way, it’s like he doesn’t need to hold back and can use any tactic necessary. He is also using a real knife this time, reminding himself that the handling is slightly different than what he has been training for. After all, I doubt at that point he believed that he would be the one to kill him (he probably thought someone like karma or maybe other characters would be able to). Considering the fact he takes into account all skills and abilities of everyone, it would be strange for him not to notice he doesn’t have a knack for fighting but rather assassination. Therefore, yes, this is his way of comforting himself.
The point is more that he doesn't need to act tough or try to be moral superior than his opponent just because his opponent is a dickhead, he understand the situation as "cut the bullshit and just do the deed already". That is why he was able to go full assassin mode there, because he understood he could ignore the full context of the supposed "fight" completely.
Also because with Assassination, if it's done right you won't need to worry about physical superiority or anything. You won't need to get in a fight and struggle, you'll just take the kill and move on. Here he didn't fight, he didn't get a chance to. He just moved in for the kill and took it swiftly.
I love how someone like Koro Sensei, when non-transformed was the most dangerous assassin in the world, could immediately point out Nagisa’s innate ability to kill
my family too, me and my mom and my cousin live in hong kong and my dad lives in china so I never listened to him other than the time he kick me is the car because im slow
I Typed this when im a bit out of myself, and its also the reason why there's a war-like in the reply section so I'll just renew the message which is this to stop it Sorry.
Love the point of this scene. They’re not being trained to “fight.” A fight would give the target a chance. Assassins stack the deck. They don’t give a target any chance of escape. A perfect assassin strikes once and the job is done. No ifs, ands, or buts, and usually no trail to follow afterwards. That’s what Nagisa realized, and that’s why he’s so good at it. All that matters is being the first to strike, and making sure there is no reply from the target after that first hit. That invalidates all other skills or talents involved automatically.
Yep, that's when he realized what "assassination" was about. The goal of an assassin isn't to fight their enemies and be stronger. The goal of an assassin is to kill their target. You don't have to be stronger, smarter, or more well armed than your target to kill them. You just have to find a weakness, exploit it, and don't give the target an opportunity to attempt to fight back.
@@ShaggyRogers1 Generally an assassin would want to be smarter, being able to plan ahead and accurately predict the events that will transpire beforehand is usually what separates an assassin from a fighter. If the fighter is smarter the assassin, the plan likely wouldn't unfold as he predicted.
Karasuma and Nagisa both have good instincts for people. Karasuma figured that if anyone had the aptitude to take out Takaoka, it’d be the one who had put even an inch of fear into his mind while training them. In return, Nagisa, who felt there were few who would look at him in a “respectful” way, immediately trusted Karasuma because he knew that behind those eyes were a calm judgement. I doubt even Karma could have taken on Takaoka.
I agree on the karasuma part but for nagisa I think it's less instinct and more just severe signs of abuse and neglect causing him to be starved for any kind of affection basically. Also on the Karma part yes and no. Karma as we've seen at this point many times does not fight fair so he definitely would've not fallen for the trap of a fair fight but I don't think he has any skills he could use in this situation to make it not just a normal fight as he doesn't have nagisas talents for assassination something I believe if memory serves me right he actually knew about nagisa from the beginning at least to a degree. So yeah he'd have lost but not because he'd have fallen for a trap but he might actually have suggested nagisa if karasuma had asked him to fight but I'm much less sure on that part as it's been a while since I watched the show.
If I didn't watch assassination classroom before, and someone showed me the dialogue where karasuma handed the knife to nagisa, no way on earth would I believe nagisa was a boy
Sniper Wolf's quote from the first Metal Gear Solid rings true, generally; the best snipers (and by extension, assassins) are women. And I faintly remember that before the manga was drawn fully, Nagisa would've been a female character.
I really love this episode because not only was the fight badass, it also subverted our expectations. Nagisa's the main character but after the Pilot he hasn't done anything for a while, he's kind of just there to add dialogue every now and then. But then here he just drops in like a boss.
If you're referring to Gordon Ramsay, I assure you that he indeed does not hate everyone. I've seen how he is with kids and he's such a sweet heart. :>

@@tsukasayugi8416 I know. I meant the fact that this person commented that they couldn't believe people thought Nagisa was a girl... because he's scary. That's the reason. I was just like uh, if he'd actually been a girl he could be pretty damn scary too
@@stormbreak7003 That'd only happen if you have both time and writing skills, which I unfortunately do not possess. Flus my current standard for stories is higher than ever and would take years to top given the level I'm at now. I simply do not that much time on hand.
I remember reading this in a manga that if you don't have any experience with a knife, you're better off not using it takes up one of your hands and the fact most people can't slash people without any hesitation. There is also the risk of aggravating your opponent who may easily steal your weapon and use it against you, and since you would have used it first, they are less likely to feel guilty using it
Karma: the first classmate notice nagisa's bloodlust (hence he's semi scared of him) Korosensei: the first "assassin" notice nagisa's potentials (hence he told nagisa to rethink his future career) Takaoka: the first "teacher" notice nagisa's devilness (hence he tried to kill him twice, and failed twice) Karasuma: the first sub-teacher recognize nagisa's power (Hence he in-trust nagisa to battle takaoka)
In the manga Nagisa freaks out about idea of stabbing another human after he defeats Takaoka. He then asks Kurasama if he actually wants him to cut Takaoka.
4:18 when the platoon gets excited over how the private kicks the drill instructor's ass, but the general strolls in to calmly remind everyone who the final boss really is
Everyone else has kinda said this already, but a fight is a long drawn out thing that usually requires some kind of physical domination. The really hard bit (that Naigsa glosses over) is how to turn a difficult, drawn out combat into an assassination when your opponent sees you coming and is combat-ready. But if you can work out how to do that, the assassination part is relatively easy.
This is one of the most brilliant moments I’ve seen. Small, epic moments of triumph and slice of life that shows them getting used to this and building their abilities. Then, all that buildup culminates into this moment where Nagisa absolutely dominates him. Absolutely amazing.
I love the smug grin Koro sensei gives throughout this scene it is holy shit levels of chilling and awesome knowing he expects the outcome before it happens and before everyone else finds out which goes to show how confident he is in himself and the others in their teaching skills which makes it all the better knowing that nagisa won by the skills he learned alongside his natural talent to remain calm in serious situations
everyone is the comments was so shocked when nagisa said "I don't need to fight him, I just need to kill him." but when i heard that i was just like "yeah makes sense. how smart!"
I don't know if you've seen it, but the reason Nagisa is the best in class is because he's from an abusive household, and uses the lessons he learned there to fade into the background and go unnoticed. As he demonstrated in the video he could appear harmless and unthreatening even in a combat situation, and that's what makes him terrifying
@@gavinkaufman3274 oppressive parents think they teach you how to behave What they teach you: Listen well Lie on the spot Appear busy Move naturally Pretty much you learn how to be a really dangerous person
I'd just add that he knows how others' emotions fluctuates. That's how he knows "when he's about to go out of line" and stop before getting beaten up. As such, he knows the right moment where his target's guard is the lowest and the right time to show his bloodlust. I indeed got interested with his family with that line of his.
"I don't have to fight him, I just have to kill him" resumes the entirety of nature. Any true predator lives by those words -- there is no reason to fight if you don't have to. Winning without fighting is the ideal.
Takaoka: "He will realize stabbing a person will kill them, and won't use it. I can take him if we fight bare handed" Meanwhile Nagisa : "Oh right, he gave me the knife himself. I don't have to fight him. I'll just kill him."
I'm watching this show for the first time right now and I got to say, I've been enjoying myself up to this point, but this scene made me realize like, "Oh this show actually has style."
This guy looks like a girl , kills like a silent anaconda , best assassin, the main protagonist and narrator of Assassination Classroom this guy is dangerous 🥶🥶
Did you cried hearing assassination classroom ended? No matter weather koro sensei die at the end or not. But seeing them not together was very emotional. Afterall The were a Family
I love the fact that how koro sensei has absolute confidence on Nagisa that he'll be successful in the assassination.... Who better than the Reaper to know how good an assassin is!!!
@@BygoneT That actually is precisely what objectivity is. You remove the subjective aspect, aka the emotions, from the thought process, to then arrive at the conclusion that why do you need to fight the guy, aka playing his own game, when you can just quickly slit his throat and thus eliminate his strength. That thought process Nagisa showed was pure logical calculation on a machine level.
@@buragi5441 Emotions have logic behind them, the only difference is that feelings don't allow you to push back unless you train yourself to do so. If you're angry, you can use that to give yourself energy you wouldn't normally have through channels you mostly don't use. Logic lacks energy, it's only there to sift through choices, and in the end it's a feeling that makes you go through with acting, some spontaneous feeling you can't control that just lets you know it's the right choice. If you're disgusted by someone, your logic is informed in different ways from anger or sadness. You might go further in destroying the body after you kill them because the idea that their body can be useful to the enemy, someone associated to the victim, is also disgusting. I disagree on basically everything you wrote at the end, not only do I not think subjectivity exists at all (It's been a while since a read a halfway convincing argument), your own emotions are most definitely not exclusive to you, because they're the result of chemicals and nerves doing their job. Which obviously means other people can feel the same things, just not the identical feeling you had yesterday at midnight, because time and space can't be shared with others. It's downright bizarre to see someone arguing that a lack of emotions would make you better at reaching a goal, when in the first place feelings are what make you want to do anything at all. It's not just about energy, it's method and understanding that is just infinitely harder without emotions. Sure, most people think putting aside your feelings is more efficient but that just means you don't really know what you're doing or what you want. There are people who killed people who didn't really think much of it and they're not psychos, riddle that one.
@@BygoneT The existence of emotions has logic behind it, but emotions themselves defy logic. If you are emotional, you are illogical. Acting based on emotions means acting based on ignoring facts.
The real reason Takaoka lost: Crippling Overspecialization He's a combat specialist, which isn't a necessity for assassination; so he treated his match with Nagasaki as a fight and was caught off-gaurd because Nagasaki didn't try to fight him.
0:07 a reaction born from instincts older and sharper than fight or flight so old are these instincts that nothing alive can remember the time those came to be part of living things
It's a nice callback to the foreshadow from Nagisa's first assassination attempt, the suicidal grenade one. He purposely pick a time when the target is the least on guard (after lunch), hides killing intent perfectly, and made the best attempt overall for the entire year. He had amazing talent from the beginning. This is just the first revelation of his talent to most people and for us the audience. Korosensei definitely already knew.
Everybody's talking about how awesome Nagisa is (and that's true), but can we take a moment to spotlight the beautiful mentorship between Karasuma and Nagisa? Go to 2:32. Nagisa is awesome, but I believe what brought out that potential wasn't the fight, but the trust Karasuma showed by choosing him and making it clear that it was a decision that he could make without judgment. I don't know much about Nagisa's mother because I haven't watched/read that far, but from what I understand, this type of support isn't something Nagisa gets at home.

Nagisa is so fucking scary dude. "I don't have to fight him, I just have to kill him" holy shit, is this seriously the same kid that people thought was a chick?
I think people still think he's a chick
What, girls can't be ruthless??
@@RavenSutcliffeNagisa is a male.
@@tsukasayugi8416 I know. I meant the fact that this person commented that they couldn't believe people thought Nagisa was a girl... because he's scary. That's the reason. I was just like uh, if he'd actually been a girl he could be pretty damn scary too

I like how some random school principal is more threatening than a guy who’s trained in the military for years
I remember reading this in a manga that if you don't have any experience with a knife, you're better off not using it takes up one of your hands and the fact most people can't slash people without any hesitation. There is also the risk of aggravating your opponent who may easily steal your weapon and use it against you, and since you would have used it first, they are less likely to feel guilty using it
Everyone: "It's okay, you don't have to fight him!"
Nagisa: "Yeah.. You're right! I just have to kill him!"
Everyone: "Exact- *wait what"*
Karma: the first classmate notice nagisa's bloodlust (hence he's semi scared of him)
Korosensei: the first "assassin" notice nagisa's potentials (hence he told nagisa to rethink his future career)
Takaoka: the first "teacher" notice nagisa's devilness (hence he tried to kill him twice, and failed twice)
Karasuma: the first sub-teacher recognize nagisa's power (Hence he in-trust nagisa to battle takaoka)
In the manga Nagisa freaks out about idea of stabbing another human after he defeats Takaoka. He then asks Kurasama if he actually wants him to cut Takaoka.
Demn this scene gave me chills nagisa a snake🥶😳🤯

Oh hey, I haven’t seen you in a comment section in awhile
So weird to hear Gintoki without the perm
Everyone else has kinda said this already, but a fight is a long drawn out thing that usually requires some kind of physical domination. The really hard bit (that Naigsa glosses over) is how to turn a difficult, drawn out combat into an assassination when your opponent sees you coming and is combat-ready. But if you can work out how to do that, the assassination part is relatively easy.
Karasuma: in the end of the whole thing:
I create a monster
4:01 he sounds so innocent
I watched it in dub so he kept calling himself daddy people don’t talk about that enough
okay dubs are kind of stupid but it funny lol
Wtf LOL
This is one of the most brilliant moments I’ve seen. Small, epic moments of triumph and slice of life that shows them getting used to this and building their abilities. Then, all that buildup culminates into this moment where Nagisa absolutely dominates him. Absolutely amazing.

I love the smug grin Koro sensei gives throughout this scene it is holy shit levels of chilling and awesome knowing he expects the outcome before it happens and before everyone else finds out which goes to show how confident he is in himself and the others in their teaching skills which makes it all the better knowing that nagisa won by the skills he learned alongside his natural talent to remain calm in serious situations
Nagisa: I don't have to fight him...
Karasuma: Mhm! That's it!
Nagisa: I just need to kill him.
Karasuma: *What*
everyone is the comments was so shocked when nagisa said "I don't need to fight him, I just need to kill him." but when i heard that i was just like "yeah makes sense. how smart!"
Takaoka: *This is what happens to kids who don’t rely on their dad alone!*
Me: *Karasuma is there dad!*
What’s sad is that he said “no one in my family in the eyes like that” and that meant they didn’t trust him
I don't know if you've seen it, but the reason Nagisa is the best in class is because he's from an abusive household, and uses the lessons he learned there to fade into the background and go unnoticed. As he demonstrated in the video he could appear harmless and unthreatening even in a combat situation, and that's what makes him terrifying
@@gavinkaufman3274 oppressive parents think they teach you how to behave
What they teach you:
Listen well
Lie on the spot
Appear busy
Move naturally
Pretty much you learn how to be a really dangerous person
I'd just add that he knows how others' emotions fluctuates. That's how he knows "when he's about to go out of line" and stop before getting beaten up. As such, he knows the right moment where his target's guard is the lowest and the right time to show his bloodlust. I indeed got interested with his family with that line of his.
"I don't have to fight him, I just have to kill him" resumes the entirety of nature. Any true predator lives by those words -- there is no reason to fight if you don't have to. Winning without fighting is the ideal.
Nagisa: *literally terrifying Karasuma and Takaoka*
Also Nagisa: "Oops, was I not supposed to use the back of the knife?"
From badass to cute in 2 seconds

Nagisa: *clapped takaoka's cheeks* nothing personal kid
That "I just have to kill him" is what gives you goosebumps like you're his target. It's so casual.
Takaoka: "He will realize stabbing a person will kill them, and won't use it. I can take him if we fight bare handed"
Meanwhile Nagisa : "Oh right, he gave me the knife himself. I don't have to fight him. I'll just kill him."
Love how the first time Nagisa first showed his talent, Karasuma freaked out.
3:27 Omg this scene is scary as hell save me
This is honestly one of my favorite anime moments. I’ve rewatched this scene so many times.
I'm watching this show for the first time right now and I got to say, I've been enjoying myself up to this point, but this scene made me realize like, "Oh this show actually has style."
Pffft typical bully, I loathe that kind of people..
This guy looks like a girl , kills like a silent anaconda , best assassin, the main protagonist and narrator of Assassination Classroom this guy is dangerous 🥶🥶
when the MC looks innocent but actually uses it to their advantage 👏👏👏
Did you cried hearing assassination classroom ended? No matter weather koro sensei die at the end or not. But seeing them not together was very emotional. Afterall The were a Family
4:35 This man literally came out of nowhere and dealt the killing blow
2:31 his silver soul shines through
Good reference
"I don't need to fight anyone. I just need to kill them."
-Agent 47, probably.
I love the fact that how koro sensei has absolute confidence on Nagisa that he'll be successful in the assassination.... Who better than the Reaper to know how good an assassin is!!!
The moment he slapped Kanzaki, I punched my wall so hard
I literally felt my blood start to boil
I have no complaint on that moment and your action has no meaning
No remorse, just purely objective.
This is why sometimes I envy psychopaths.
Objective doesn't mean what you think. Not comprehending others' emotions, and not having empathy is far from it.
I saw that as Psychopath but my mind recognized it as Suicopath.
I'm deep on the rabbit hole, yeah, so I will head to the exit.
@@BygoneT That actually is precisely what objectivity is. You remove the subjective aspect, aka the emotions, from the thought process, to then arrive at the conclusion that why do you need to fight the guy, aka playing his own game, when you can just quickly slit his throat and thus eliminate his strength.
That thought process Nagisa showed was pure logical calculation on a machine level.
@@buragi5441 Emotions have logic behind them, the only difference is that feelings don't allow you to push back unless you train yourself to do so.
If you're angry, you can use that to give yourself energy you wouldn't normally have through channels you mostly don't use. Logic lacks energy, it's only there to sift through choices, and in the end it's a feeling that makes you go through with acting, some spontaneous feeling you can't control that just lets you know it's the right choice.
If you're disgusted by someone, your logic is informed in different ways from anger or sadness. You might go further in destroying the body after you kill them because the idea that their body can be useful to the enemy, someone associated to the victim, is also disgusting.
I disagree on basically everything you wrote at the end, not only do I not think subjectivity exists at all (It's been a while since a read a halfway convincing argument), your own emotions are most definitely not exclusive to you, because they're the result of chemicals and nerves doing their job. Which obviously means other people can feel the same things, just not the identical feeling you had yesterday at midnight, because time and space can't be shared with others.
It's downright bizarre to see someone arguing that a lack of emotions would make you better at reaching a goal, when in the first place feelings are what make you want to do anything at all. It's not just about energy, it's method and understanding that is just infinitely harder without emotions. Sure, most people think putting aside your feelings is more efficient but that just means you don't really know what you're doing or what you want. There are people who killed people who didn't really think much of it and they're not psychos, riddle that one.
@@BygoneT The existence of emotions has logic behind it, but emotions themselves defy logic. If you are emotional, you are illogical. Acting based on emotions means acting based on ignoring facts.
The real reason Takaoka lost: Crippling Overspecialization
He's a combat specialist, which isn't a necessity for assassination; so he treated his match with Nagasaki as a fight and was caught off-gaurd because Nagasaki didn't try to fight him.
Yeah he pretty much gliched when he saw Nagisa walk straight to him without freaking out or trying to attack
Damn, I forgot how good this show was. I need to go back and watch it again
If Karma was there I think Karasuma would've chosen him. But Nagusa blew me away the first time a watched this completely

Legend says that that piece of paper never hit the log.
Takaoka: I'm the father here!
Nagisa: I had a *terrible* relationship with my parents.
Takaoka: *thinking Nagisa is getting squeamish from holding a real knife*
Nagisa: "i just have to kill him"
XD
It's a nice callback to the foreshadow from Nagisa's first assassination attempt, the suicidal grenade one. He purposely pick a time when the target is the least on guard (after lunch), hides killing intent perfectly, and made the best attempt overall for the entire year. He had amazing talent from the beginning. This is just the first revelation of his talent to most people and for us the audience. Korosensei definitely already knew.
That's new gym teacher really scared me, he was terrifying
Every human eats, sleeps, shits, pisses, showers, falls sick. Many chances to fuck him up since he works in a school.
Everybody's talking about how awesome Nagisa is (and that's true), but can we take a moment to spotlight the beautiful mentorship between Karasuma and Nagisa? Go to 2:32. Nagisa is awesome, but I believe what brought out that potential wasn't the fight, but the trust Karasuma showed by choosing him and making it clear that it was a decision that he could make without judgment. I don't know much about Nagisa's mother because I haven't watched/read that far, but from what I understand, this type of support isn't something Nagisa gets at home.
The fact that a full grown up lost to a kid in a fight 2 times in a row...future reference
