"VR Ushijima" (Japanese:
Overview[]
Ushijima is introduced to the world of virtual reality video games.
Plot[]
Seeing a group of zombies before him, Goshiki lets out a scream of terror. The noise attracts the attention of Ushijima. At seeing Goshiki wearing a strange head piece, he asks the others present what they're doing. Tendō explains that he recently purchased a VR gaming system for them to play with.
Ushijima is clearly confused at what a virtual reality game is when Goshiki accidentally runs into him in his panic and mistakes the ace for an android. After calming down, Goshiki apologizes for the commotion he caused during his panic while playing the game. Ushijima thinks that Goshiki simply became too invested and warns the younger teen not to get carried away with a simple game. Tendō warns Ushijima himself not to underestimate the game and suggests that he give the game a try, telling him how things can seem as if it were actually real when wearing the device.
His friends urge him to try the game since he appears to be interested. Tendō notices how Goshiki especially is trying to get Ushijima to play and learns that Goshiki feels he can at least outdo the third-year when it comes to video games. Naturally, Shirabu begins to ridicule Goshiki for his thinking, reminding the first-year that Ushijima has never played virtual reality before and therefore wouldn't be good at it starting out. However, upon hearing Tendō and Yamagata voice their interest in Ushijima possibly being frightened at seeing zombies, Goshiki ignores Shirabu and quietly expresses his own hope that Ushijima will become so frightened that he will not be able to sleep properly that night.
Ushijima finally enters the game and shows the signs of a starter when he tries to press the start button in real life instead of the controller. Thinking that Ushijima is not very invested in the game after the first few minutes, Tendō suggests that the ace wear headphones that will add sound to what he sees. Ushijima starts playing and sees a game character tell him to take a secret pathway. He begins to do so but literally does the walking and runs into a wall.
Ushijima finally sees zombies appear and that he now appears to be holding an axe. Again, acting out what he should do, Ushijima swings his weapon and Yamagata narrowly manages to duck out of the way. Ushijima again swings the controller to attack and Tendō is just able to dodge getting hit. Goshiki tries to warn Ushijima that they are the ones he's swinging at but Shirabu reminds him that Ushijima can't hear them. Yamagata suggests they leave the room so they won't be hurt but Tendō decides against this since the room itself would be destroyed. Hearing this, Yamagata suggests that they just remove the headset and end the game.
Although the others agree this would be the best option, they quickly see that it might be the most dangerous for them as Ushijima continues swinging the controller around. Tendō tries to pass off the job onto Goshiki who right away interprets that he is being used as a decoy/sacrifice. Tendō admits this and explains that the rest of them will grab the headset from Ushijima while Goshiki is distracting him. Shirabu suddenly realizes that they could just unplug the game without anyone needing to get close to Ushijima, but Yamagata points out it won't work since the headset has a battery of its own that will not interrupt the game. Shirabu tells Goshiki that he will have the advantage since Ushijima isn't able to hear or see them but Goshiki thinks this actually makes Ushijima even more dangerous. Despite the protests, Tendō pushes Goshiki forward and the rest get ready to remove the headset.
In the game, Ushijima notices that more zombies are starting to appear but is finding it rather odd that everyone thinks it's as enjoyable as they make it seem. Wishing how the game was a bit more difficult, Ushijima swings the controller and lands a shot on Shirabu. Yamagata attempts to take out Ushijima's feet but is quickly defeated. Tendō next tries a fake-out attack, but he too is taken out with Washijō being taken out right after when he came to find out what all the commotion was. With the game stating that he has cleared the level, Ushijima removes the headset and is startled to see that it appears zombies resembling his teammates are now before him.
Later, Tendō admits to Goshiki that he is better than Ushijima when it comes to games, but Goshiki does not find any pride in this. At the same time, Shirabu and Yamagata ask Ushijima if he was scared when playing the game only to hear him say that he wasn't, not even when he thought he saw real zombies in front of him.
