The Disciple is Ready

is episode 10 of the Beelzebub anime.

Originally, this was to be the twelfth episode aired, but following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, the anime had been skipped for two weeks because of the provocative nature of the series. The original episode 10 had been postponed to become episode 13, while the original episode 11 had been postponed to become episode 15. This episode and the next episode had had their airdates left intact. As a result, these two episodes were aired first. The opening and ending sequences for this episode have been modified to remove scenes suggesting the disaster.
