Episode 10: Usuper

"'Why he touchin' my man? Where he goin' with my man?' - Nagisa"

Episode Summery
Rei agrees to meet the swim team after Nagisa mentions that the other members could go missing without anyone noticing it. Nagisa introduces Rei to Makoto and Haru, who instantly begins doing his demon impression.

His eyes roll back into his head and turn black, his voice changes, and a pentagram appears on his forehead. The pentagram is not always included in the demon act but his eyes always go black and the voice always changes. During this, he says cryptic phrases and refers to Rei as "usurper" however Makoto and Nagisa pretend not to notice.

Rei agrees to go to the joint practice to observe however once they get there, Nitori lends him a swimsuit and he is pressured into swimming. He jumps into the water despite not knowing how to swim and afterwards agrees to join the team.
