Classroom for Heroes episode 11 recap
The episode kicked off with Blade being attacked by someone who looked exactly like Sophie. However, eventually, the real Sophie came to the rescue, proclaiming she would protect Blade with her life, causing the imposter to flee. The pretender was Sophie’s clone, named Une, who regrouped with the other four clones, each named after the first five French numbers.
Each of the clones attempted to defeat Blade, but their efforts went in vain as Sophie tirelessly defended him. Two of the clones even unleashed a black hole attack, but Sophie managed to suppress it, though she eventually blacked out from the strain. Later that night, after regaining consciousness, she confided in Blade.
She revealed that the five clones, with her as the sixth member, were part of an experimental project infused with the powers of the Artificial Great Hero, all with the sole purpose of eliminating Blade, the true Great Hero. Despite Blade’s desire to befriend the clones and offer them a place at the academy, Sophie explained that they were programmed to fulfill their mission, and they wouldn’t deviate from it.
Their existence was solely to carry out this task, and unlike her, they couldn’t defy their programming or live life on their own terms. In the quiet of the night, after Blade had fallen asleep, Sophie quietly left the location without a word to anyone.
