Product Information

Protective Coloring: Korosensei can change his skin into any color, utilized for expressing emotions as well as disguise and camouflage.

All this changed after assassinating a wealthy businessman and father. The man's child witnessed the killing, and the child became enamored with the beauty of the kill, requesting that the Reaper train him as his apprentice. Eager for the assassination opportunities that an apprentice could give, the Reaper took in the boy and trained him. He taught him everything he knew, all while still instilling respect and fear in him and letting him know the difference in power between them, though he only saw him as his tool rather than a real student. Korosensei then collapsed out of fatigue from his fight with Reaper 2.0, and after noticing the laser's light intensifying, he announced that now was the time for the class to kill him. Once the class reluctantly decided to pin him down, Korosensei tells his students that he left them each a book of advice as a farewell gift and that he would announce one last roll call. As he calls out the list of names, he reminisces how he is proud of his students who gave meaning to his life. However, as time passed, their relationship became close after Aguri taught him what "compassion was". Eventually, Korosensei finally told her of his life, and Aguri expressed her desire to instill courage in her depressed students. Antimatter Physiology: Due to the human experiments of producing antimatter in a living body by Shiro, Korosensei's entire appearance is that of an octopus-like creature with multiple tendrils that function as his tentacles. Anything aside from Anti-Sensei Weapons will be ineffective in harming him. It is initially believed that he would self-destruct by the time of Class E's graduation; however, it has since been proven that the chances are minuscule at best. Class 3-E students: Arguably Korosensei's greatest weakness. Although students of 3-E class are subtly aware of this, only three students ever made actual attempts to exploit this factor: Karma Akabane, Nagisa Shiota (using himself as bait), and Ryoma Terasaka (using Nagisa as a suicide bomber the first time, second when he was unknowingly manipulated by Shiro into nearly drowning his classmates, but has redeemed himself since). Exploiting this weakness means one has no qualms of discarding lives of his/her classmates, and even their own; Yanagisawa has demonstrated these qualities.Genius Intellect: Even before Korosensei gained his powers, he possesses a gifted mind which allows him to learn and understand complex knowledge in a matter of minutes. Since gaining his speed, Korosensei has become hypercognitive, and can process information thousands of times faster than the average human being. His greatest feats appear to be coming up with inventions leaps and bounds above contemporary science in a matter of days.

Korosensei is portrayed by Jun Fukuyama, who previously portrayed another manipulative protagonist, Lelouch vi Britannia, from the Code Geass series. Their shared desire to teach ultimately results in a lot of trust between them. In the final volume, Asano is described as Korosensei's "greatest supporter," and when Korosensei reflects on which assassination attempts were the closest to succeeding, he mentions that he wasn't too worried about participating in Asano's game because he knew the explosion wouldn't be so strong as to injure the other students.The students' actions had also attracted the attention of the professional hit man known as the The Reaper. When Korosensei was away, the hit man took the class hostage to lure the target in and Korosensei was soon captured. They were later freed when Karasuma defeated the Reaper. With the finals approaching Korosensei motivates the class into getting first place in any of the five subjects, with the reward being that they have the right to shoot off one of his tentacles. Knowing that this will slow down his speed, the class takes up the challenge enthusiastically, but also got drawn into a wager with Class A. The results show that Rio Nakamura, Yūma Isogai and Manami Okuda scored first place in English, Social Studies and Science respectively. However Korosensei has been conned to have four additional tentacles destroyed when Terasaka, Hazama, Muramatsu and Yoshida tied for first place in Home Economics, a subject Korosensei tried unsuccessfully to disregard as not being a core subject. The class's plan is to attempt their ambitious assassination on a holiday island resort in Okinawa, which was the prize for winning their wager with Class A.
