On his way to school, Natsuru tries to catch the bus to school but it drives past before he gets to the bus stop, but luckily his crush, [[Kaede Sakura]], also misses it and they decide to wait for the next one together. Unfortunately mid-conversation with Kaede the bracelet starts to glow so Natsuru tries to leave before transforming in front of Kaede but before he gets away the same red-haired girl with the pistol from his nightmare appears. A bus drives past and Natsuru takes the chance to run away from the scene and turns back into a girl with a brief magical girl transformation sequence.

Eventually arriving at school as a guy, Natsuru's friend, [[Mikihito Higashida]], tells him there's a girl outside wanting to see him who introduces herself as [[Akane Mishima]]. Akane reveals that she is that red-haired girl that attacked him earlier, except this time she's a shy, bespectacled librarian who seems to apologetically find lewd double-entendres in everything that is said. She explains that there are 2 types of Kämpfer, Blue and Red. Also it is explained is that each Kämpfer carry one of three weapons: [[Schwert]] (sword), [[Gewehr]] (gun) or [[Zauber]] (magic), kind of like rock-paper-scissors, except no weapon type appears to have a natural advantage over another. Also it is hinted that Akane may have gained a crush on Natsuru after saving her from the falling lamppost. After a bit more conversing Akane goes to grab a German dictionary but it's to high for her to reach so Natsuru grabs it for her but as he pulls it out a bunch of books falls making them both fall as well and Natsuru landing on top of Akane. After a bit of confusion and misunderstanding they are interrupted by the Student Council President and as she walks away Natsuru bracelet begins to flash. Akane then escorts Natsuru to the roof of the female side of the school where they hide and talk about why they turn into Kämpfers.
[[File:Kampfer1_86.jpg|thumb|left|Akane getting attacked by mysterious Kämpfer]]On the way home after school, Natsuru, who has now changed back to a boy, is wanted by Kaede and he thinks that she finally wants to confess her love to him. Instead, she asks Natsuru to introduce her to the female version of himself, without knowing that they are actually the same person. He decides to ask Akane for advice the next day, but as the two of them are talking in the school's library they find themselves under attack by another Kämpfer with a chain-blade weapon that cuts through the bookshelves like paper. After one attack, Kaede is shown standing in the rubble. Thinking she's the attacker, the transformed Akane points her gun in Kaede's direction and fires as the episode ends.

Natsuru: They're bigger... My hair has grown longer... Don't tell me... I've never had this underwear...
Akane: I'm gonna shoot you 'til you die!
Akane: I remember I woke up and felt really hot... B-By hot, I don't mean it that way! Natsuru: Then what do you mean? Akane: T-Then I was holding a big and black and shiny Gewehr... Natsuru: Big and black? Akane: P-Please don't misunderstand me!
Akane: Senō your stiff thing is... Natsuru: Come on, stand up. Akane: I-It's standing up?! Natsuru: Hold it. Akane: H-Hold what?! Natsuru: What? Akane: What do you want me to hold?! Seppuku Kuro Usagi: Are you an idiot?
Natsuru: Wait, so why do we suddenly transform? Akane: One reason is like this morning when I got aroused and felt like fighting... Natsuru: Aroused, huh? Akane: No! Not that kind of aroused!
Natsuru: Can you watch my back? Akane: I'm not into that- But if you insist... Natsuru: Huh? I just want you to watch out for me.
Natsuru: D-Do I have to flip up my skirt? Or take it off?
Natsutu: Akane. Akane: Hello, idiot. You have some nerves to call me "Akane".
Natsuru: Akane! Akane: Seriously, for crying out loud. Natsuru, friends don't address each other with honorifics. Natsuru: Akane! Akane: Wanna die? Natsuru: A-Akane.
