In Assassination Classroom season 1 episode 9 titled "Transfer Student Time," a new transfer student joins Class E, and the students quickly learn that he is not like any other student they have encountered before. The transfer student, Itona Horibe, is determined to assassinate Koro-sensei, the alien teacher who has been tasked with destroying the Earth but is now teaching the students of Class E how to kill him before he can carry out his mission.
Itona has been trained by his mentor, Shiro, to be the perfect assassin, and his abilities far surpass those of the other students in Class E. His introduction to the class is met with mixed reactions, with some of the students not trusting him and others being curious about his abilities.
Koro-sensei, however, is intrigued by Itona and invites him to stay for the rest of the school year, despite the objections of some of the students. Koro-sensei sees potential in Itona and believes that he can be swayed from his mission to kill him.
The rest of the episode focuses on the interactions between Itona and the students, as well as the attempts by Koro-sensei to win him over to their side. The students try to make friends with Itona, but their efforts are met with resistance, as Itona has been taught to see them as enemies.
Meanwhile, Koro-sensei uses his charm and wit to try to sway Itona, showing him that there is more to life than just killing and that there may be another way to deal with their situation.
The episode is filled with tense moments as the students and Koro-sensei try to figure out what Itona's next move will be. They are all aware that he could strike at any moment, and they must be prepared to defend themselves and their teacher if necessary.
As the episode progresses, it becomes clear that Itona is not the cold-hearted killer that he initially appeared to be. He begins to show glimpses of his true personality and also begins to question his loyalty to Shiro and his mission to kill Koro-sensei.
The episode ends with a cliffhanger, leaving viewers wondering what will happen next. Will Itona be swayed to the side of the students and Koro-sensei, or will he continue on his mission to kill? The next episode promises to be just as action-packed and suspenseful as this one, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end.
Overall, "Transfer Student Time" is an excellent episode of Assassination Classroom that showcases the dynamic between the students, Koro-sensei, and their newest enemy-turned-ally, Itona. It is filled with suspense, action, and heart, making it a must-watch for fans of the series.
