Classroom of the Elite

Ayanokoji's second year begins with a new threat from the White Room and a new special test.

Ayanokoji and Horikita's quest for a partner for Sudo brings them to a first-year with unusual demands.

Class 2-D continues its negotiations with Class 1-D as the state of the field becomes more clear.

Negotiations with Hosen come to a head with little time left before the end of the special test.

Ayanokoji's class reacts to his newly revealed skill as the stage is set for the next special test.

Ayanokoji's class embarks on their first trial as the ascended Class C, the mixed training camp.

Yukimura injures his leg while the group is training for the upcoming tests. He later devises a plan for how the group should handle the marathon and then the day of the four tests arrives.

While Class C are discussing Karuizawa and Hirata's break up Yamauchi is approached by Sakayanagi from Class A. Horikita warns that it's a trap, but Yamauchi pays it no heed. Meanwhile, Horikita tells Ayanokoji that rumors are swirling around Ichinose.

It's Valentine's Day and the boys of Class C are excited about whether or not they will receive chocolates. Meanwhile, Karuizawa seems uneasy over Ayanokoji's request to meet up and while doing so an unexpected person appears...

Turns out the one spreading the rumors was Hashimoto, who did so at the behest of Sakayanagi. Shortly thereafter, Sakayanagi appears before Class C and she informs them she has evidence regarding the rumors about Ichinose.

Everyone in Class C has passed their year-end exam. While relief flows through the classroom, Chabashira announces a special exam. It will be a class vote to choose three people worthy of praise and three worthy of censure.

With the approaching class vote, a disturbing atmosphere hangs over Class C and fills them with suspicion. Second-year Class A's Asahina informs Ayanokoji that Ichinose has asked for cooperation from student council president Nagumo.

After conversing with her brother Manabu, Horikita offers Yamauchi name as the one who should be expelled. Not only has he made few contributions to the class, but he also worked with Sakayanagi in Class A to expel Ayanokoji.

The class vote has seen the first student expelled from Class C. Sakayanagi meets up with Ayanokoji and they're approached by a man named Tsukishiro sent by Ayanokoji's father. Afterward Ayanokoji challenges Sakayanagi to compete on their next exam.

Class C considers various strategies for the special exam, but they all lack a decisive factor. Hirata remains disappointed in the class vote result. Ayanokoji calls out to Hirata, who acts coldly towards Mii-chan who is worried about him.

As Hirata recovers and the class shows unity, it's finally Ayanokoji vs. Sakayanagi. The final special exam has begun and the first round is basketball. Class C puts up a good fight, but Sakayanagi plans to mentally shake Sudo so he will fall.

The class narrowly lost to Class A in the final exam, and were demoted back to Class D. However, the students showed growth throughout the year. Horikita, in particular, having grown as leader requests to dissolve the alliance with Class B.

With the island test over, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and the others are enjoying their summer vacation on a luxury liner. Suddenly, they're interrupted by a new special test. Ayanokoji is called into the same room as Karuizawa Kei and others, where they learn that this test isn't strictly along class lines...

With Day 1 of the "thinking" test over, Ayanokoji is talking to Hirata and the others about a way to break out of the stalemate when he receives a message on his phone from an irritated Horikita. Meanwhile, noticing something strange about Karuizawa's behavior, he seeks information from Horikita, but...

Karuizawa is pushed to her breaking point by the girls of Class C. Ayanokoji watches impassively, but Yukimura flies to her aid, unable to bear it. Noticing Karuizawa's abnormal levels of fear, Ayanokoji seems to get an idea...

At the start of the second term, preparations for the sports festival begin. The students are nervous about the fact that performance in the events will affect their written tests, and even more pressure is added by the unique team breakdowns and freedom given to the students to decide who takes part in what event...

Ayanokoji brings Kushida, whom he suspects of being a traitor, to observe the other classes alongside Horikita. When the day of the festival arrives, Team Red pulls into the lead with great performances by Horikita and Sudo, but Ayanokoji merely watches with disinterest...

As the sports festival comes down to the wire, Horikita must deal with Sudo, as well as Ryuen's threat.

Class D prepares to face their next major challenge, a test called "Paper Shuffle" where the price of failure is expulsion.

Horikita decides to use Paper Shuffle to settle matters with Kushida, and Ayanokoji finds himself caught in the middle.

As the day of the Paper Shuffle draws near, the plans of the various forces in play collide.

Ayanokoji receives a visit from outside the school, and learns more about the conditions of his stay.

Ayanokoji makes his final decision on how to deal with Ryuen and the Class C threat.

The aftermath of the gymnasium incident plays out as Christmas brings romance to the school.

Melancholy, unmotivated Ayanokoji Kiyotaka attends his first day at Tokyo Metropoiltan Advanced Nuturing High School, a government-established institution for training a generation of Japan's best and brightest. In this school, it is said, everything is decided based on merit, which includes the generous monthly "point" allowance students can spend at local shops. As Ayanokoji begins navigating this system, he also nurtures curious relationships with aloof fellow outsider Horikita Suzune and the terminally gregarious Kushida Kikyo.

With their first midterm exam approaching, Class D needs to find a way to improve their class average, or face another month with no points to spend. Even Horikita decides to take part, forming a study group to help the class underachievers. But can the stanoffish Horikita really inspire her classmates to succeed?

Thanks to a lot of hard work and scheming, Class D managed to get surprisingly high scores on their midterm exam. But when a student fails a single test, Ayanokoji makes one final play to save his classmate from expulsion.

Sudo has been accused of fighting with a student from Class C, and depending on an upcoming ruling, Class D might have its few remaining points stripped away.

With the hearing for the assault approaching, Ayanokoji and Kushida attempt to secure the cooperation of Sakura Airi, possibly the only person who can testify that Sudo was acting in self defense.

Sakura's testimony has bought Class D time, but Horikita and Ayanokoji still need to find a way to tilt things in their favor. Meanwhile, Sakura senses the presence of a strange man nearby.

Even during summer vacation, lone wolf Horikita would rather remain locked in her room studying than interacting with others. One day, Ayanokoji invites her to visit the pool with some of the others.

It's summer vacation! The first-years get to board a luxury cruise ship, where they're allowed to sample the highest class facilities available.

As part of a special test, the school has brought the students to an uninhabited tropical island where they must now live for a week. Their performance on the test can have an enormous impact on the point standings of the four classes.

Class D has achieved a degree of unity in facing the special test, so Ayanokoji and Horikita head out to see how the other classes are getting along. Class B is working together to make a comfortable life for themselves, while Class A remains secretive.

With the panty thief incident already eroding Class D's trust, Horikita finds her leader key card stolen. While they try to figure out who did it, the base camp is thrown into chaos with a new incident of arson.

Ibuki has stolen the key card, and Horikita's condition has deteriorated. Over Horikita's objections, Ayanokoji forces her to drop out.
