After the revolutionary war, Tatsumi was able to survive the fight with the emperor. No longer willing to stay in the Empire after seeing so much death, so he leaves in search for a new start in his life, and this journey starts with a girl named Ry...
Ryuko gets up and dusts herself before going over to put on a workout outfit before Tatsumi stops her.
Tatsumi: I want you to put Senketsu on while you train, you don't have to power up or anything, just wear him again.
Ryuko: No way. I don't want to freak out and hurt you again.
Tatsumi: If you're so afraid of hurting me then you should be alright to at least wear him again while training.
Ryuko: Are you sure it's ok for me to wear Senketsu?
Someone opens the window to her room and shouts through it.

???: Please do!
Ryuko: What the?
???: Please put it on!
Tatsumi: Who are you and how do you know where we live.
Mako: Mom I brought a new friend ho- Oh he's already here.
He hands them a newspaper telling them about the city-raid field trip.
???: Satsuki and the Kiryuin conglomerate are trying to turn the students into soldiers. I can't let that happen. I tried to make a newspaper about it but it got denied by the committee! Dammit, this just goes to show how useless I am!
Tatsumi: Ok chill out with that useless shit firstly. Mako, who is this guy?
Mako: Nagita said that he got on the student council's bad side and has been banned from student grounds ever since.
Nagita starts punching the ground, making Tatsumi cringe a little.
Nagita: There's no freedom of speech here at all! Nobody was willing to step up beside you two. You two however are different Ryuko you fought and won against the Elite Four and Tatsumi you helped her!
Tatsumi: Why do I get the feeling that I'm being cast aside... Again.
Nagita: You two are the revolutionaries of Honnouji Academy, with your help we can fight Satsuki and end this reign of Tyranny.
Ryuko: Beat it. I'm not fighting because I want to.
Nagita: Then what are you fighting for?
Ryuko: I don't even know anymore.
Nagita: Please one person was inspired by your actions and chose to stand up for himself and make a change so please put on the uniform and help us!
Ryuko: I don't fight for the sake of other people, leave that to Tatsumi over there.
Nagita: But he's not nearly strong enough.
Tatsumi holds his head down while Ryuko just kicks him out of the house.
Ryuko: Beat it! Just give up and go home!
Nagita: No I won't, you are the star of hope for Honnouji Academy!
