| can someone pls pls loop Ichinose's laugh at 9:50 best laugh ever. This episode was so great btw, i thoroughly enjoyed it... wasnt my favorite LN for nothing after all, super happy that class D won, i actually felt happiness overfilling my body, that was a great feeling. |
| It was fine. Boring past few episode but they wrapped the important things on this one. I don't see any character development beside the MC(knowing his past and his nature), Kushida became passive after episode 3, Horikita as a stepping stone and this *rumor best girl?* Karuizawa rarely appear. (can't remember if its Karuizawa or Ichinose) I wouldn't hesitate to watch season 2 because my interest to Ayano is in there. |

| god this show is so fucking bad lmao i'm giving this shit show a 1 the mc is straight up autistic he's legit worse than Hachiman bc at least the latter became less autistic by the end of the show how this show is still almost a 8 is beyond me |

| ok so the last episode was so awesome...ayanokoji is something else...the guy is actually dark |
 |
| That ending... everything should've been like that from the start. More Ayanokouji please. Alas, a lot of wasted potential. I don't even know if I want a second season, last episodes were so not interesting. |
  |
| Honestly, this episode has made me interested in what happens going forward, despite the fact that this show as a whole has ultimately been rather boring and pointless. Sure, it was a very nice touch to switch from Horikita's sincerity towards Ayanokoji and his blunt, disinterested internal dialogue, but it's not as if this is new information about him (other than the link between whatever facility Ayanokoji came from and his father). However, all these links to the future will only be worth it if they bother to make a second season, which I honestly doubt; if they did make one, I would be interested despite this first season ultimately doing very little (like, they basically ignored Kushida for the entire second half, as well as ignoring Sakura other than random moments with here, and I'm sure these aren't the only plot threads that came to nothing). 7/10 |
| Yeah, needs another season or something. I guessed pretty early on that he didn't really give a shit about anyone. Turns out I was right. Not sure how I feel about that, though. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| Mind = Blown. But that's the norm of this series. Ayanokoji is double-faced as fuck. WOW, ok he was treated like shit, so now he sees no worth in people. I wonder if teacher wants to change that in her own way? Like by motivating Ayanokoji to get off his comfort-zone, he will inevitably have to interact with others and eventually melt the ice of his heart. Not sure if I'm right, may a LN reader tell me if I'm on the spot? Also that A Class girl, definitely has something with Ayanokoji, given how confident she was on the turnout. All in all he's a much darker and somber Hachiman (for whoever wants to use those silly comparisons). The coldness of his eyes sure is deep. |
 |
| 9/10. Definitely one of the most interesting series of this year. I really hope for second season. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| i have one word to describe (especially the ending of) this anime Im gonna miss you Kushida ;___; |

| Ayanokouji is such an emotionless ball of cold logic, intelligence and cunningness. I seriously hope this will have a second season. 8/10. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| I loved this anime, I need a season 2 now desperately! Darn it, I might just read up on the LN if it's translated |

 |
| Wow.. just wow,, i didn't expect that the last episode left me this satisfied. Actually i was really concerned since there were many loose ends and with only 1 episode remaining i thought they wouldn't do it but hey! they managed to sort things out which went pretty well imo. this tho... it gave me the chills  That's ayanokoyi for you xd.. Now.. I want a second season badly! I feel like i grew so fond of the characters on this anime.. and this open ending makes it possible.. wish it happens <3 |
 |
| So, in the final moments, we finally realise Ayanokoji's true motives (and could be why he was placed in Class D - the teacher knows about him (and his father) so the reasoning might not be just because of his test scores) Although I do find it rather strange that despite the Horikita-centred-ness of the series, she is pretty much rejected in the end. It's not bad - in fact it's great to show Ayanokoji's true nature and not break his character - but it just seems the focus on her was all for nothing in the end. All in all, like many others said, the show was a good concept with a high-school setting reflecting political ideologies and the fundamental problems of society, but could have been better executed. I personally found the first few episodes more interesting than the last, as is the popular opinion, however, the show still provokes deeper thoughts into the subjects it decides to brush up on, however little it actually does to explain. All in all, 8/10. Started off like a more serious Oregairu, started to branch apart into something unique but didn't quite get there. EDIT: Oh, and finally MAL has fixed the genres of this anime. Hooray! |
| Ayanokoji is such a savage. Having a cute girl expressing her gratitude and he just basically tells her to fuck off. I thought there was going to be a fight scene in this episode though, oh well. Heres to hoping there will be a second season. 8/10 |

| Ayanokouji's monologe was totally badass!!! I have hopes for 2nd season. |
 |
| Started promising, turned out below mediocre and the last scene has shown that it could be a pretty interesting series if it wasn't a piece of shit adaptation. If it wasn't just a bait Ayanokouji could be a decent anihero. Probably rather simple since most LN writers are average writers at best but at least it could be a breath of fresh air among all these shitty bland and ballsless "male" leads infesting anime for years already. Seriously, anime is trash if it can't even work as LN adaptation. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
Ayanokoji at the end of this episode... I can't say I'm surprised but wow. He manipulated everyone. Chdata said: I loved it when Horikita's generic tsundere got drowned out by Ayanokoji's utter apathy towards others. This'll forever be one of the most interesting moments I've experienced in anime history. Yes, that was well done. |
| I don't think this anime will ever get an ending and I still like Aya-kun. That ending with him reminded me of myself. |
| I haven't read the novels but plan to read them once my Japanese is on a level where I can actually do things with it lol. To be honest, I liked this show and I'd gladly watch another season of the adventures of evil genius Hachiman. Poor Suzune tho, that burn was real. So the one that wants Kiyotaka expelled is actually his dad who I assume probably works at that research facility or is the boss of it. Kushida seems to be foreshadowing something so I expect a backstabbing from her at one point. |

Even if you don't like this anime to call it the "worst anime of the season" is going way too farInteresting concept terribly executed, one of the worst shows this season. Sry,not for me,while it had some interesting approaches at the beginning it dropped those in order to flash the audience with unexpected/hidden character traits or make us curious about their background. Unfortunately that didn't work for me,cause first, it was a cheap way to create some tension and second, I'm not interested in bland characters whose only remerkable quality is that they have a hidden side which contrasts with their usual outer appearance. It got worse when the show drifted further away from the course and showed two fanservice episodes in a row.Then we entered the last arc and I got my hopes up for a panty thief xD and the last part with Ayanokoujis monologue was the final nail in the coffin, it's beyond me how people can clarify this as badass lmao ...I'm not stretching it, when I say that I had a hard time finishing this anime and I also didn't say it's the worst show, but only one of the worst, then despite being bad there were shows which made drop them this season. And also dat smartphone cancer... |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Well that was a surprising monologue by Ayanokouji there at the end. Faces of Class A and C leaders were satisfying; so much for their respective keikakus. Overall there were more entertaining episodes than the lesser ones, and I've found that my enjoyment is directly proportional to the amount of screentime Ayanokouji gets being badass. Outside of our MC, the rest of the cast are one-note walking tropes who I don't really care for but want to see dominated by MC. Some episodes were just pandering/pointless, and the series doesn't know how to pace itself given how sluggishly slow it can be (really, a whole episode devoted to panty thief). Although the premise about the school and its hierarchical system is pretty cool that leaves a lot of room for exploration, the show decided to say "fuck it" and focused on side characters who don't really change at all or only simply get chummy with the MC if same-age female despite the amount of time they get. I've always found the purple tint on the top of the characters' eyes a little distracting, but whatever. 6/10 I'd watch the second season anyway if there's ever gonna be one. |

| I need sleep. |
| The execution and characterization didnt live up to the promise of the premise. Could have been handled much better. I do confess I am curious about how nasty our MC gets to be further on in the novels though. |

| Ayanokoji made this show amazing 8/10 |
 |
Is this the best final 30 seconds of an anime? this alone made me want season 2 |
animeisbad4realOct 2, 2017 11:46 AM
| Ayanokoji would make an awesome Antagonist :O Awesome reveal! |
| As it is right now, the anime is barely a 5. Most characters are forgettable and those who aren't need A LOT more development. If this gets a season 2 it might change, but right now I think it would be better to just read the LN. |
 |
| really good anime, want season 2 :') |
Lol these eyes are just amazing. I doubt there will be a second season though it would be great to have. Now I wish the english translation for the novel would catch up... it's completely different from the anime. |
 |
| Some LN reader could spoil why the hell does Ichinose has like 2.6m points? Like wth Ayanokoji's finally showing some true colors to us. I really hope this gets an season 2 next year :S Anyways 8/10 for me, hoping for the sequel. |
| Pretty nice conclusion for what I expected, shame that I wasn't too big on this arc since I enjoyed the rest. 6/10 from my part, I read stuff about what Lerche changed and it makes me so sad that they cut so much Ichinose (best girl voiced by my favorite female VA q_q) in favor of Horikita, Ichinose also seems to be the clear favorite of Japan so I can already see them really angry and RIP S2, shame because I still find the setting and MC (and Ichinose, where is more Ichinose?) really nice. |
 |
| Oh god, what an episode I wonder whether they plan on releasing a second season... |
| Great show, great character, but no 2nd season because Japan prefer their idols and other isekai shit. good night. |
| After a debatable middle part, the show managed to find it's original charm right at the end. The final Ayanokouji's monologue was disturbingly good. I didn't think his view was so distorted by whatever happened to him in the past, and I'm happy that he does have the intention to win. I hope the prediction of him dropping out on his own won't happen anytime soon, but I can see them building something around that to expose his "father" and that lab to the outside. Will definitely check out the novel, once/if it gets past what the anime showed. |
