Episode 1

**She Cried Inside When the Monster to Strike Fear into the Hearts of Men Was Born into the Evil Secret Society Plotting World Domination** is the 1st episode of the Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department Anime.

## Summary

Kuroitsu of the Monster development department has to give a hastily prepared presentation due to her superior's incompetence. A new wolf-themed monster is created by the department, but some changes are made by Akashic's suggestion.

### Plot

Megistus meets Lady Akashic to report that everything is on schedule for their world domination plans. On the other hand, Akashic notes there are rival organizations out there and that they should act with more urgency. However, Megistus shows Akashic video evidence that their competition was eliminated by their hero rivals. Although impressed by the evaluation, Akashic notes how they struggle with their own hero problem. To that, Megistus reveals that their research department is already developing a new monster for their disposal. Meanwhile, at the research department, Kuroitsu argued with Professor Sadamaki about the presentation he wrote haphazardly in 10 minutes. In his defense, Sadamaki claimed that he suffered from severe writer's block and insists that Kuroitsu give the presentation, much to her dismay.

Afterward, Kuroitsu gives her presentation to Akashic and her board members. Despite her anxiety and her disdain for her superior's lackadaisical interest in doing his job, she improvises and shows the board the fruit of her department's labor. To nobody's surprise, the monster's revelation gets a mix of tepid or dissatisfaction with its simple and unoriginal design. Despite her cohort's opinions, Akashic loves it, but Megistus notes that her final decision would affect the morale of the organization. He then allows Kuroitsu to continue with her presentation and chastises the monster she presented. Regardless, Kuroitsu claims that the monster has the capability of evolution once it's afflicted with enough damage. Intrigued by this, Megistus notes that such a feat would be impossible due to budget constraints and is therefore rejected.

At the development office, Kuroitsu talks with Sadamaki about their rejected monster proposal until Megistus appears. On the contrary of believing they were to be fired because of Sadamaki's incompetence, Megistus was concerned about their health affecting their work performance. Hence he suggests that they take proper breaks and use their vacation time. Furthermore, he praises Kuroitsu for her out-of-the-box thinking and notes how he looks forward to her next presentation, but warns them not to make the same mistakes again.

Kuroitsu buys some lunch from some place and has a pleasant chat with the employee there. She then returns to the research department where their newest monster named Wolf Bete was near completion. However, due to abrupt last-minute changes imposed by Akashic, Bete's gender was switched from male to female, much to Bete's dismay.
