 Publishing company Kadokawa announced on Monday that a sequel anime for the Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e (Classroom of the Elite) television anime is in production. The company also revealed an announcement visual (pictured).An Anime Project Presentation featuring the lead cast Shouya Chiba (Kiyotaka Ayanokouji) and Yurika Kubo (Kikyou Kushida) will stream on the Kadokawa Anime Channel on March 6 at 8:00 p.m. The special program will deliver new information about the sequel anime. The anime series adapting Shougo Kinugasa's school psychological light novel—also known by its short title You-Zitsu—aired in 12 episodes in Summer 2017. Crunchyroll simulcast the anime with subtitles, while Funimation streamed an English dub. The latter also released the series on home video in August 2018. MF Bunko J imprint published the first light novel series in 14 volumes between May 2015 and September 2019, featuring illustrations by Shunsaku Tomose (Ange Vierge). Kinugasa launched a sequel light novel the following January. Kadokawa published the fifth volume last October, with the sixth volume scheduled for release on Friday. You-Zitsu has a cumulative 6 million copies of its volumes in print, including digital editions. Yuyu Ichino began a manga adaptation of the first light novel series in Monthly Comic Alive in January 2016. Kadokawa shipped the 11th volume last July. Shia Sasane launched a second manga adapting the sequel light novel on December 25 last year. Seven Seas Entertainment licensed both the light novel and manga adaptation in English in July 2018 and June 2021, respectively. The tenth novel volume shipped digitally on February 17, with a planned physical release on March 15. The first manga volume will go on sale on March 1. The publisher also licensed the sequel light novel last September with a scheduled release date of July 19. You-Zitsu placed sixth in the 2019 edition, fourth in the 2020 edition, and third in both the 2021 and 2022 editions of Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! rankings. Synopsis On the surface, Koudo Ikusei Senior High School is a utopia. The students enjoy an unparalleled amount of freedom, and it is ranked highly in Japan. However, the reality is less than ideal. Four classes, A through D, are ranked in order of merit, and only the top classes receive favorable treatment. Kiyotaka Ayanokouji is a student of Class D, where the school dumps its worst. There he meets the unsociable Suzune Horikita, who believes she was placed in Class D by mistake and desires to climb all the way to Class A, and the seemingly amicable class idol Kikyou Kushida, whose aim is to make as many friends as possible. While class membership is permanent, class rankings are not; students in lower ranked classes can rise in rankings if they score better than those in the top ones. Additionally, in Class D, there are no bars on what methods can be used to get ahead. In this cutthroat school, can they prevail against the odds and reach the top?

| interesting, haven’t checked out the first season yet but now I’m inclined to doing so |
 |
| A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one! |
 |
| Best news I heard in a while. |
 |
| Holy shiiiiiiit did my eyes read right i mean is it really the most awaited sequel we all wanted from such a long time ofcourse after ngnl s2 but I just can't believe it and I can't be more happy thanks to those who have taken this great decision.... |
 |
| Let's fucking gooooooooooo!!!!!! |
| HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT'S ACTUALLY TRUE |
| Holy shit been waiting for this for a long time, almost lost all hope of this anime getting a sequel |
 |
| It was inevitable eventually. Still, it took five years. Way longer than expected, judging by how successful anime adaptation was in terms of sales. |
 |
| Let's see how this adaptation fares compared to the 1st season |
| Well this is a great surprise, especially considering that the first season got a lot of backlash for cut content and a sequel seemed near-impossible. Either way, I'm happy as long as it stays faithful to the source material |
 |
| i thought the adaptation changed its story from the light novel though.. but another season(?) huh.. lets see how it goes |
 |
| Nice! I think I need to rewatch the 1st season |
My Candies 2024      My Old Candies:      |
| it's actually happening and i'm so ready for it! |
 |
|
| OMG HYPPEEE I NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN |
| Nice one At least, we will get more Akarin and Shikaco as well. |
真姫ちゃん！ 何が好き？ トマト よりも あ･な･た♡  |
| FUCK YESSSSS..... This came out of absolutely nowhere. |
| I'm so happy !!!! I hope it airs this year !! |
| Well, this is one big surprise coming out of nowhere.... I'm curious how they will fix several things from Season 1 |
 ☆ PlayStation: KoitoTV ☆ Discord: Koito ☆ Twitch Koito ☆ @Koito91 |
| About darn time, seriously! Nasty cliffhanger from Season 1’s finale, I still remember the (half-)shocking revelation right then and there. To be able to see the continuation now, is fantastic! Personally, I was fairly confident about a sequel given how successful the ranobe counterpart is but for it to come now after all this time, that caught me by surprise for sure. |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| Welp now i have reason to rewatch CotE anime. |
  I play BanG Dream! Girls Band Party Garupa EN ID: 10759829 Garupa JP ID: 36753163 |
| Now It's like a dream tbh |
Everything is Garbage except LoGH |
| ok, this one was UNEXPECTED AF, but i'm hyped so much !!! |
 |
| ok, this one really unexpected i though this will be never get second season since i heard season 1 not same as what in LN. LN reader tell me is that season 1 really not same as LN or what. |
| im not too good to speak english .. -- / -. --- - / - --- --- / --. --- --- -.. / - --- / ... .--. . .- -.- / . -. --. .-.. .. ... .... |
| Wow. It's finally confirmed? Guess I'll give it a try. |
 |
| AYOOO !! ITS ACTUALLY FOR REAL!! |
  |
| lol I wonder how they’ll adapt the future volumes with how much stuff they changed from the source |
 |
| Holy hell, this came out of no where. I literally gave up on a 2nd season for this and yet.... So hyped for this |
I am a useless student of society. Tests are my body and Grades are my blood. I have done over a thousand assignments. Unseen by teachers, nor done properly. Yet, those hands shall never hold an outstanding grade. So, as I pray... Unlimited Homeworks. |
| LETSSSS GOOOO so happy that we will get to see our Badass Boy Ayanokoji back 😍 Now we just need S2 of No Game No Life & S5 of Highschool DxD |
| "When There Is Evil In This World That Justice Cannot Defeat, Would You Taint Your Hands With Evil To Defeat Evil? Or Would You Remain Steadfast And Righteous Even If It Means Surrendering To Evil?" |
| Absolutely mid anime...... |
| Hmmm |
| The first season was pretty mediocre, but there are some hot chicks in that class so I'll watch anyway. |
| Hopefully they'll adapt it better than they did with season 1, this is an anime of the year contender right here |
| woah i gave up on a season 2 of this its been so long!! |
