Episode 5

The Crimson Black Assassin is the 5th episode of the Black Bullet Anime. It aired on May 6, 2014.

After saving the Tokyo Area, Rentaro and Enju practice along Kisara, who leaves Rentaro in awe as she displays her swordsmanship. Shortly afterwards, Kisara informs Rentaro of a bodyguard mission requested by Seitenshi. Initially, Rentaro refuses. However, after certain events, he decides to take upon the request. Enju tags along with Rentaro, albeit, the trio is attacked by a sniper after leaving the meeting room.

Summary
At a dojo, Rentaro watches Kisara practicing with her Snow Shadow. After she quickly destroys her target, Rentaro is left amazed by her ability; admiring her speed when utilizing her sword, which is only designed for killing. Abruptly, Enju questions how long Rentaro will keep her waiting, shortly before the latter turns his attention towards her and beginning their training session, which involves dodging rubber bullets to improve Enju's abilities. She manages to dodge them successfully and delivers a high-kick to Rentaro, whose only responds is advising Enju to avoid high-kicks whilst donning a skirt, leaving her embarrassed—Enju bashfully claims that Rentaro liked it.

A while later, Kisara and Rentaro walk and talk about Enju. Kisara questions when Enju will be enrolled in another school, but Rentaro informs her that he still has not found a new school fitting for Enju. Kisara suggests that he enrolls her in a school located within the Outer District, but he refuses, noting the condition the area is in. Kisara then reminds him that it is only best to find a place where Enju can be comfortable, leaving Rentaro to consider it. Stopping, and knowing he will be needing money, Kisara tells Rentaro that he has been offered a job as Seitenshi's bodyguard, to which she requested herself. Although he has not fully accepted the job yet, Rentaro meets up with Seitenshi, who informs him that President Saitake, representative of the Osaka Area, is coming to meet her for an informal meeting, but both do not know the reason as to why. Seitenshi believes that it is because Kikunojyo is absent. She then tells Rentaro that she wants him to accompany her wherever she goes, serving her as a personal guard, but Rentaro says that she already has bodyguards, who appear upon their introduction. Yasuwaki Takuto, who serves as the Second Lieutenant, proceeds to shake Rentaro's hand. However, Rentaro says that he has not accepted the job yet, awaiting an explanation.

Seitenshi claims that she awaits a positive response, but Rentaro contradicts her, revealing that she should not expect too much from him. Rentaro later leaves but finds himself lost within Seitenshi's mansion, complaining on how big it is. He is then confronted at gunpoint by Yasuwaki and two other guards. Yasuwaki tells Rentaro to not accept the bodyguard offer, for it was Kikunojyo who entrusted him to protect Seitenshi, but Rentaro informs him that he does not take orders from him. This provokes Yasuwaki, who orders the two men grabbing Rentaro to break the bones in his arms and legs, but one is quickly stopped by Rentaro, who tosses the guard to then shoot Yasuwaki, grazing him with a bullet, angering him. Before Yasuwaki can shoot Rentaro, he hears another guard and leaves before the situation worsens. Just as the guard arrives, who questions what happened, Rentaro tells him to notify Seitenshi that he will accept her offer to be her personal guard. A little while later, Rentaro is seen leaving Seitenshi's home. Now outside, he sees three men shouting at someone for running over one of his lackeys with a bike. He confronts the apparent leader and reveals his Civil Security badge, causing all three of them to leave. The person the men were previously shouting at is revealed to be a little girl named Tina Sprout. She looks up at Rentaro and admits that she has never met a superhero before, leaving Rentaro with a distinguished look.
