Well that was pretty good, honestly much better than S1 was.
The animation seems a lot better and the OST really surprised me.

It seems the conversation between Ayanokouji and Hirata was cut from the episode.
And the group names are related to planets instead of animals as it was in the LN.

Overall solid adaptation but could still be better.

For the first episode, I think it's pretty good from the anime graphics and the explanation of the story makes the brain to think more about the dialogue. As a novel reader, I feel nostalgic from the ship's discussion atmosphere. I'm quite satisfied for Ayanokouji's part, yes he really doesn't really stand out in this episode but that's enough for Ayanokouji's part judging from the novel, for Kei, oh yeah Kei finally debuted, and look again, gosh I was so happy when Kei's part, honestly I'm not satisfied that key is treated as an NPC in season 1, I've been waiting to see Kei's part from season 1, great job.

Maybe It wasnt the Best adaptation of the LN, maybe they change some things about It. but seeing agains Ayanokiuji and finally Kei as the protagonist Is all I wanted. And It was a good first chapter, maybe with fast pace but atleast we got It back love to see it

The very first moments i saw the scene , the animation looks really balanced in every frame and more perfect than season 1 . Excellent opening for the comeback from ZAQ , who sang the first and this second season . It also potrays her efforts into this song : In "Caste Room" the tune is light-hearted and makes you feel motivated , but in the next song "Dance in the game" , you can see the tune and vocal is heavier than the former , makes me think the line between truths and lies is closer to the point of intertwining . We will get to see Kiyotaka struggle against many forces from both the inside and outside the school .......But things can be complicated sometimes so who knows what would happen next.

For the ending , the singer is Mai Fuchigami . It's a coincidence since she voiced Shiota Nagisa in Assassination Classrooom , one of my favorites anime of all time . For the ending , there is a hidden message related to the position of each character in school . I will stop here for now , but the ending scene between Kei and Kiyotaka proves their relationship will bloom in some way

One surprise i think those who read the light novel would recognize is the name of the test from The Zodiac Test to The Solar System Test , I won't dig deeper into it since this is a "light novel-based" anime ........

There are complications for the anime the first is the episodes count which is 13 and the other is the episode duration time from 24 minutes to 23 minutes and 40 seconds . I wonder how Lerche would adapt each arc from now on . But for now all i could say is splendid comback and expecting more twists from the next episodes

One of the first seasonals I ever saw is finally back with a sequel after 5 years and it was pretty damn rushed overall, which isn't too shocking given how the first year arc still has many volumes to be adapted. As an adaptation of the source material, it was really rough too given the pacing issues sadly. on top of additional odd changes. Not a great return to be frank.

This went as I expected it to. The part where they explain the test was boring but the scene where Ryuuen confronts them and Kei's scenes were handled well. Animation also improved.

Well, it's a dumpster fire and a half. It is extra-rushed.
Lots of changes to cover up all the BS in the first season. Or changes just for the sake of changes. And A LOT of missing content that is very important. Like Kei's monologue.
And I wonder what they will do with the important scene with Kushida, which they adapted in the eighth episode of the first season.

As a ln reader, I am really shocked about what they did in the anime. I am sure that the anime watchers right now are very confused about the way they portrayed the zodiac arc. Btw, In the ln it is not the planets but the zodiac signs. In the light novel they expressed properly the mechanics of the game but in the anime, they are missing lots of points but dont get disappointed about it, keep on track on the next episodes and I am sure you will get the gist of it.

I'm seeing people saying there were changes? I'm a LN reader and I don't notice anything different.

The pacing was a bit too fast, but not too confusing if you go back to understand the rules, I think we can all agree this is the most confusing exam. The LN definitely drags out stuff a bit too much, I think this is great. You LN readers need to stop bitching about everything.

they changed the anime AGAIN!? how many time the producer need to learn? I now just lost hope the adaptation will be good throughout season 2 and upcoming season 3, because as we can see right for the start, the first episode already trash.. ugh

You should know, the author said in the LN (at the end of the novel of Y2V6 if I remember well) that the production team tried their best to connect s1 story to LN material, of cource changes are expected. Well, if you can't deal with it, just stop i guess. Please don't encourage others to not watch it.

It was a good start to the season, a lot of things were complicated like the exam itself you have to keep up with what the characters say and their planning also for the exam, things are getting to spice up from the next episode due to this special exam, all the characters are introduced and Kei was given a lot of importance in the ending and the episode also? looking forward to what it maybe?
I give this episode 6/10.

Straight to an exam in the first episode. I remember reading those rules in the novel like 5 times because I couldn't remember them 😂

Also, they changed the zodiac signs to planets??? 🚨🚨

Key is going to be the main girl this season, I'm really looking forward to see her interactions with Ayanokouji 0.0

I thought it was only me, but yeah, it felt really rushed

It's been 5 years now since the first season aired, but after an unexpected sequel announcement, Classroom of the Elite is back and picks up right where it left off at the end of S1.

The pacing did feel oddly fast which made it a bit difficult to keep up with the infodumping, so I might have to go back and rewatch the episode. Also, it looks like there's more changes and cuts happening according to LN readers. I know that was a big complaint back in S1, so it's a shame it's happening more (though I guess not too surprising). Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing the mind games at play in this special exam.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Totemo interesting episode. Nothing felt different from Season 1, it was as if we are just watching episode 13 after a very long break. The animation was good but now when I think about it, I didn't like it much, maybe it was because I rewatched the BD version of Season 1 a few weeks back.

We go right into the aftermath of island test and a new test is awaiting thr students. The 4 cases they showed really were difficult to keep in mind lol. And a expected Class A is as uncooperative as ever and Class B acting all friendly and nice.

It seems the focus is going to be on Karuizawa for a few episodes at least.

The test is really difficult, every class thinks of other class as enemies and are constantly competing to reach class A, so cooperation between them is going to be the most difficult thing and we can already see that in Mars group.

I think this arc will go on for lots of episodes, they will maybe show POV of all the 8 groups and stuff.

We can't deny how good this opportunity is for Class D to get private points, they seem to be the most low on PP.

It's gonna be nice to see how all these scenarios work out and who wins and stuff. I'm looking forward to seeing how Ayanokoji is gonna handle this and what stratergies he comes up with.

After last episode of Season 1, I totally thought Suzune would come off her shell a bit more and act all cutesy and stuff but eh anyway.

After seeing everyone in Class B be so nice, friendly and well-mannered, I wonder how the whole class manages to be like that, there's gotta be some secret like it was with Kushida.

5/5.

people are just f*cking about things that doesn't matter at all. Like the zodiac thing what nobody cares. It won't affect the story a little bit if it's planet instead of zodiac

People complaining about the exam changes have no idea what they are talking about. They literally just made it simpler and easier to understand. 90% of people here have no idea about the 12 zodiacs. Changing that to solar system is pretty logical. The only big change is them keeping the number of students to 25 and not going to 40. But that is irrelevant since most of those characters might as well not exist. Though some future exams will need to be changed a bit because of that. Overall episode is 9/10. I took 1 point off because they didn't adapt the Kei monologue, but everything else was good. Kei shined as she is supposed to.

I’ve missed Ayanokoji and those dead fish eyes of his lol. The kid is always observing, always scheming. I wonder what he’s got cookin for this special test.

Something seems to be up with Karuizawa. That last scene (unexpected fanservice) had me thinking she must have some kind of trauma? It’s been a minute since I’ve seen the first season but somethings up. Also, is there something going on between her and that Class A guy? She seemed kind of please when he showed up. Idk might just be reading into things too much.

Anyways, curious to see how this test plays out and what other schemes these other students have going on.

How much did I wait for this second season, and finally we got it!!! I like that the episode wasn't playing around and went straight into the "action" or I should say mind games. Of course, that doesn't mean that later in the season we won't get more backstory and chill episodes, but for a starter it was pretty good, but that just my opinion.

Always good seeing Ayanokouji back in action, carefully watching and planning out his next move. Now as a person that hasn't read the manga but enjoyed the first season a lot, every minute passes in this second season in a minute that i'm almost sucked in into the screen. That's how much I don't wanna miss any detail. It seems Karuizawa will get more of the spotlight this season, so that an interesting thing.

But yeah expecting great thing from this season.
