Kaede Kayano hates big boobs because she is insecure about her own size, and will often get upset whenever big boobs are brought into her attention. Principal Asano is one of the emotional variety to his son Gakushuu, needing little prompting to rattle about how all of his son's plans ended up in failures. Gakushuu usually responds in kind but it's clear his father terrifies him sometimes (just look at Gakushuu's face when his father beats up the foreign students who were defending him.). Also, Gakushuu's been slapped by his father at least once (by pointing out how his plans ended in failure, ironically enough). A tentacled creature of unknown origin destroys over seventy percent of the moon, and he announces that he will destroy the world in one year. Nonetheless, Ministry of Defense government worker Tadaomi Karasuma allows the creature to be the teacher of Kunugigaoka Junior High School's Class 3-E. The students are given weapons specially designed to hurt the creature and are offered a reward of ten billion yen to whoever can assassinate him before graduation. However, none of the students are able to assassinate him due to his Mach 20 speed. Class bully Ryōma Terasaka convinces Nagisa Shiota to wear a grenade filled with pellets. When the creature gets sleepy after assigning the students to write a poem, Terasaka detonates the grenade once Nagisa comes within close range of the creature, but the creature sheds his skin to protect himself and Nagisa from the blast. The creature threatens the other students to refrain from coming up with plans that will harm others. Kaede Kayano names the creature Koro-sensei, seeing him as an "unkillable teacher".

Although initially it began with Irina's ruse to get information on Korosensei with a 'Kiss of Death "30 hits"' and timidity on the part of Nagisa, the two eventually become good allies with the good bonds of teacher and student. On several occasions, Irina demonstrated some valuable techniques as an assassin to Nagisa, and was surprised by Nagisa's hidden talents and bloodlust, the more notable examples being outsmarting a combat veteran such as Takaoka in a fight and subduing Kaede Kayano with her own technique: the Kiss of Death. Nagisa has shoulder-length hair that he ties into pigtails in the source material, but he has short boyish hair in the live action movies.
