To all current and future students of National High School,
Next year, the board has decided to implement a modern, progressive schooling system by the name of the Tachibana System. This will include major changes to all aspects of a student's schooling experience. This email is being sent to inform you of some of the major changes.
We are cancelling the fourth term of this year in order to accommodate new construction and infrastructure plans. The government has provided the school with twenty-million dollars for the purpose of building the necessary infrastructure.
These changes will only affect those who are in high school next year. Our middle school and primary school facilities will be permanently shut down from next year on. This is in order to accommodate the new system.
First of all, all students will be required to live in the dormitory. There will be a major reconstruction and renovation of the dormitory to account for the increased population. This is mandatory, if you do not wish to live in the dorms, you must attend another school.
Second of all, students will not be permitted to leave the campus or communicate with people outside the campus, including parents and guardians, without permission. If a student is caught doing so, they will immediately be expelled.
Third of all, students are not permitted to bring anything from outside of the school on the first day. A student caught with any other items will be immediately expelled. Students are expected to arrive at school in their uniforms. All items such as toiletries, clothes, food and study material will be provided by the school with respect to the Tachibana System.
This is a revolutionary schooling system detailed by Tachibana Kohei, one of the greatest educators of all time. Success in this schooling system directly correlates to success in the outside world. Be warned that if a student does not cope with the increased difficulties, they are likely to be expelled before the completion of their schooling. However, if one managed to complete their scholarship, they are guaranteed great success in the future.
At the moment, we are accepting 180 students per year level. You will be notified if you are successful in receiving a position; students currently attending National High School will get priority. A further 100 students per year level will be added to the waiting list. They may be called to attend the school for various reasons. If you are on the waiting list, please find alternative schooling until you are called up.
If you do not wish to participate in the new system, you are to drop out and or simply not hand in the agreement. You are to use the next few months to find a new school to attend.
Attached is a legally-binding agreement which needs to be completed and returned to the school by the 19th of October. If it is not completed and returned by then, the student will not be permitted to attend National High School.
Kind regards,
Acting Director and Principal of National High School
Hayao Kurosawa

A/N: The next volume might be a little slow at first, but trust me, the main girls do come back (with a very large role, especially Fujiharu Sara). I just need time to develop the school and the setting of everything. I hope the Special Exams are interesting, and feel free to comment if you don't get anything (It's pretty complicated).
Thank you for reading thus far, and I hope you continue with me on this 500+ chapter project~

[Volume 1.5 Afterword]
Well, that was a relatively short volume, but I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless.
It was quite fun writing the beach scene. I enjoy soccer quite a bit myself, so I've been wanting to include it somewhere. Aside from that, I've managed to clean up Kanako-san's arc and wrap it up in preparation for the next volume. I hope you're excited to see the students once they all meet up again at National High School.
In the beach chapters, I've chucked in some cameos of characters that will be much more important once we head into volume 2. Also, Fujiharu-san will be back, and she will continue to be the main heroine.
Actually, while we're on the topic of Yandere, I'd like just to clarify something. As most of you have probably realised, there hasn't been much Yandere action yet. This was a decision by me in order to develop the story more. Naturally, I promise it will be interesting, so just stick with it! (It's for the good of the story~)
I'll write an interlude to drop some final exposition before we dive face-first into Volume 2 and the Tachibana System.
Also, volume 2 will be much longer, and you won't have to hear so much rambling from me.
I've been chugging litres of coffee and staying up late so I can pump out a few more chapters before volume 2. Preferably, I'd like to have a few days where I can just purely plan out the aspects of the school. As a result, I've been stockpiling some chapters.
There will be some short stories and other content for the next day or two as I prepare for volume 2. They'll be a little shorter, but I'd like to spend a decent amount of time planning volume 2.
Anyways, if you're enjoying the story, I hope to see you in volume 2.
It'll truly be a journey from beginning to end.

By the way, the next volume may be a little bit hard to keep track of, so I've left a glossary here and in the Auxillary Volume. There aren't many spoilers, so if you have to switch between tabs, feel free to do so.
You can check this in the glossary section as well.
