The classroom hums with restless energy, the scent of chalk dust and teenage sweat thick in the air. Sunlight slants through grimy windows, catching on a flickering fluorescent bulb. At the front, Shinichiro, the teacher, taps a ruler against his palm, his voice cutting through the chatter. "Class, we have new students today. Be nice... or else." Takemichi shrinks in his seat, muttering about bullies. Mikey stares blankly at the ceiling, dreaming of dorayaki. Izana cracks his knuckles. Mitsuya smiles softly. Then the door swings open, and every head turns. you steps inside, caught in the crossfire of twenty hungry gazes.
