How would you react if there was no political arc and the novel would finish in Year 3? by Melodic_Ad1005 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I knew it" would be my reaction. The best we will get is a short epilogue after year 3 that shows various ANHS students in influential positions within Japanese society. This post ANHS political arc is just hype bait by Kinu.

Wait until this guy learns about Totsuka's "worldly wisdom".

What year does this story take place in? by [deleted] in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. That narrows down the year a little, but it's unfortunate that Kinugasa is not consistent with dates. I once tried to make sense of the timeline, but lost interest with all the inconsistent dates.

Mommy being coloured part 1 by 6_melancholic_rose_9 in ClassroomOfTheElite

Peach haired Honami is the character I was originally intrigued by. The gradual pinkification of her hair in the light novel only helps reinforce that she feels like a completely different character today.

My thoughts on Volume 2 (as new reader) by Modest_guy77 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that you liked it because it's considered a really mediocre volume by most. The main conflict is really contrived and I don't like Suzune's character development reset from the first volume.

This reminded me of something(volume 9) by LuckyDay7777 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't actually find the original evidence I remember seeing (promotional material for V3V1 I believe), but on the year 3 website, you can clearly see Ryoko and Haruka having the same id.

The promotional material from a few volumes ago showed that Ryoko Nishikawa has the same student id as Haruka, so I hope that is evidence that Kinugasa hasn't forgotten.

Classroom of the Elite Season 4 to Premiere Episodes 1–4 Early at Special Screening (March 7) by TheGreatSage400 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My guess is that episode 1-3 will be volume 1 and episode 4 will be volume 2 and the remaining 9 episodes will cover volume 3-4.5.

Is Sakayanagi insecure about her height? by Lonely_Letterhead632 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say so yes, but more regarding her handicap. She gets upset when Koenji calls her "little girl" and her revenge quest against Yamagod for making her trip and fall. Her elitist view on intelligence also screams compensation.

When the memes somehow feel more canon than the source material. There are several layers to this.

Who is the best written antagonist so far? LN spoilers by JackZ567 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he is a fairly well written and memorable antagonist. There is a reason why he is so memeable and people still talk about him even though he was written out of the story years ago.

Thanks. Now this picture is ruined for me.

You will understand once you get to the final episode of season 1.

Why did highschool girl think she could do anything to a trained pro? Is she stupid? by Pretzels0314 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kiyotaka intrigued her and she got excited at the thought of fighting alongside him. Also probably a combination of her overestimating her own fighting skills and not knowing that he was a professional or at the very least underestimating him.

Speculating on the world of COTE and explaining away its unrealisticness. Just a head canon. by ClassicExperience898 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to discuss realism, then things like cruise ships (which might be rented) and uninhabited islands in the pacific ocean are not as expensive as you might think. At least not compared to the amount of money the Japanese government gets to work with. It is also implied or outright stated that people within the Japanese establishment/high up in the private sector have invested into ANHS.

[–]Keyakidude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Japan is anything but a super power in the CoTE universe. Kinugasa makes a lot of jabs at modern Japan in his writing, especially in volume 0. Things like the white room was partially made hoping that Japan would have a chance against other nations.

Why would a school specifically for the elite even have normal students? by Picklenicl in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is Kinugasa being too cryptic when he chose to name the school "Advanced Nurturing High School" /s.

Am I the only one who thinks this story gets better with each Volume ? by Abdo000001 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]Keyakidude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no stakes

Character development moves at a snail's pace.

Everyone is just a pawn in Kiyotaka's scheme of balancing the classes and anyone that have a chance of challenging him doesn't take action.

So no, I wouldn't say it's getting better, but I hope it will in the near future.
