Everything we know about Classroom of The Elite so far

There is a renowned high school that is known to raise the best students in the nation. With four classes, namely A, B, C, and D, D-Class students are mainly delinquents. The audience observes this story from Kiyotaka Ayanokōji’s perspective.

He is a shy, quiet, and somewhat underconfident kid of D-Class. Students Suzune Horikita and Kikyō Kushida are also in the same class as him.

Being in an inferior Class, Suzune pledges to change her Class from D to A. After mid-term exams, everyone from D-Class passes except Sudo, who faces expulsion. Kiyotaka and Suzune try to help him.

Sakura, a key witness, refuses to testify and is later stalked by a mysterious man. Working behind the scenes, Kiyotaka and Suzune hope to change Sudo’s fate and the verdict in his favour.

Suzune sets a goal of improving her Class rank, by studying alone in the summer. Amidst all this, Kiyotaka invites her to join him and his other classmates at the pool.

A luxury cruise to some tropical island sets sail with newcomers, where D-Class students enjoy the rest plan. Later, being dropped on a remote island, students are in disbelief.

Popular Classroom of The Elite Characters

The Series is filled with some amazing characters. Our discussion will be incomplete if we do not cover some of them. Below we have mentioned important characters from the series who returned in season 2.

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji

Ayanokoji will be the main protagonist of the Classroom of the Elite Season 2 as well. He seems to be an introvert and consecutively, is not very good at communicating with his fellow mates.

He is a student of Class-D. Ayanokoji is a very mysterious character and most of his classmates, somehow or the other, get attracted to his character. I hope that we get to know who he is, in the upcoming season.

Suzune Horikita

The cold-hearted human, of Class-D. She doesn’t seem to be an introvert but is unfriendly. Might be she isn’t good at communicating with others as well. Horikita seems to be interested in Ayanokoji’s mysterious personality.

In the upcoming season, we will see, how she fights and paves her way toward Class-A. Or maybe she fails!

Kikyo Kushida

Heard about people having a double personality? Kushida is one of them. She is sweet, but inside, she is as cold as ice. I hope that in Season 2 we get to know more about her double personality, and the reason behind it.

Airi Sakura

She is the photography geek of Class-D. Sakura was saved by Ayanokoji once when she was being chased by a stalker. After that incident, she became an admirer of Ayanokoji.

Kei Karuizawa

In the light novels, Karuizawa is shown to have developed a crush on Ayanokoji. The best part is, that Ayanokoji too seems to be quite close to her. Don’t you want to know what happens to these unspoken feelings? Wait for Season 2. Lol!

Honami Ichinose

Ichinose is one of the toppers of Class-B. Unlike others from her class, Ichinose is very amiable, as well as down-to-earth. She doesn’t mind being friends with the students of Class-D. That’s a rarity!

Arisu Sakayanagi

She is the leader of Class-A! That speaks a lot about her I guess. She is exceptionally intelligent, and yes, she behaves like the “queen” of the school, as said by a Class-D student.
