I wont get into much detail here, but basically the reason this anime will most likely not get a season 2 is because, well, Japan is pissed.

If you read the LN im sure youd be pissed as well, I am too. This anime could of been amazing, it had great potential which is why people hate the fact that they screwed it up. Let me explain a little.

The problem is the anime adaptation is like 100x worst than the LN. It feels like Lerche thought this anime was only getting 1 season so they kind of just... made the anime how he wants?

But lets get into why Japan is pissed. Basically they all are hating Horikita right now (especially after episode 7). Why? She's stealing every other female character's spotlight. Lets take episode 8 for example (I was really pissed this episide). I was happy today expecting to see some deveolpment between Ayanokoji and Ichinose (Class b girl). But no, instead we get more Horikita. Honestly she's starting to get annoying at this point. Not only me, but everyone in Japan was excited for this. Also, dont mind my all caps here, THEY DECIDED TO COMPLETELY TAKE OUT THE AYANOKOJI AND KARUIZAWA ARC! I was pissed. You remember the episide when Horikita gave that cringey ass speech? That episode was supposed to be for Ayanokoji and Karuizawa, but no lets just give it to Horikita. Those two were supposed to have an intimate and memorial moment but they completely left her out of it. I was really looking forward to that, and so was Japan. Theres more but ill end that there.

Next let talk about the annoying 3 stooges. Ya know Sudo and his 2 friends? Well they are getting too much screen time. All this screen time being wasted on them could be used for the MCs development. Ayanokoji is pretty much carrying this show right now, which wouldn't be happening if they didn't waste valuable screen time on these lame asses and Horikita and used it for Ayanokoji and the other female characters. Like what was the point of wasting 5 minutes watching Ike tell Kushida can he call her by her given name? All 3 of them are annoying characters that get to much screen time. I get it, Sudo is a hot headed fucker, you dont have to tell me every episode. I swear this anime could of been so much better.

Next is the fucking fanservice. There was one episode that felt like a damn ova. Just like the 3 stooges, fanservice is taking up too much valuable screen time. Every likes some fanservice if course, but not when its fucking the anime over. Anyone who can control their libido knows that.

Also, as you know, anime getting a next season depends on the producers and the sales in Japan. Welp, it aint looking too good. The sales were doing ok (not good not bad) but after the release of episode 7 and 8, the guys in Japan have been boycotting the BD reservations for this anime. They are completely pissed and expected a lot more out of this anime. Im pretty sure this wont get another season especially after I found out what hapoened in Japan.

To sum this up, Japan is pissed, they fucked the anime adaptation over, and the sales are starting to do bad in Japan now. I had very high hopes for this anime, but I'm very disappointed in Lerche.

This was typed on my phone so please excuse any spelling errors :p

If theres something I missed feel free to say so.

Hmm I am not reading the LN but all those things you pointed out are basically my problems with the anime lol. Horikita annoys me, I am more interested in other girls like Kushida and Sakura, I think Sudo and the other guys are very dull and there's no reason to focus on them that much and I think the excessive fanservice is taking over valuable screen time.

Is it confirmed that this will be a one cour adaptation though? Because afaik and from what I see on MAL there's still no episode count lol. That being said, I didn't know about the dvd sales but the anime has at least boosted quite a bit the LN's sales, which is a good thing, right?

I had doubts about this anime from the beginning, but it seems like it's not a great show after all. I mean, episode 7 could be passable if it wasn't followed by almost the same fanservice-filled episode 8. If there'd be 24 episodes overall they might still save the story but if it gets only 12, I don't think so.

I can understand the anger. I'd be annoyed myself if I was a LN reader. I mean, I'd pretty annoyed if they adapted Ballroom e Youkoso or Kakegurui badly or in a very different way that is arguably not nearly as good or enjoyable to me (which luckily they didn't, even though there's quite a good amount of still shots of the dances in Ballroom e Youkoso and they've changed things up a little or skipped a few things a bit in Kakegurui), so I can empathize how you guys feel.

Though even though I didn't read the LN, the series has been going downhill since episode 7 so far to me, which is a huge shame since this was pretty interesting to me beforehand. I don't mind the fanservice, but I didn't like how it suddenly went in episode 7, like when it came to Sudoh, what with going through something else that would have gotten him easily expelled (and it was a really dumb plan), and this was after all they've went through to prove that he was not the only one at fault in that conflict he's involved in. It's like they didn't learn anything at all.

I suggest you finish it through. Even though they fucked it over the arc coming up should be very exciting (if they dont screw up these last 4 episodes).

No its not confirmed. I'm just assuming it is, but there is still a possiblilty for a season 2. There only hope is to pull off these last 4-5 episodes of perfectly. And yes the LN sales are amazing right now. But that usually doesnt mean much for the anime. It feels like they made the anime just to bring popularity to the LN. Even though I'm reading the LN as well, I always prefer anime over manga and LNs but anime producers seem to always screw up the anime.

You guys honestly dont realize how much better this anime could of been/pulled off. This anime would of had a 8.5-9 rating had they animated the series correctly.

No, before anime she's number 2 in favorite girl poll in Japan. (1st is Ichinose and 3rd is Karuizawa). But after ep 6-7-8 she is hated because director replace competely other girl:
+ Ep 6: Ichinose is the one who gets the ideal and traps 3 guys from class C but replace by Horikita.
+ Ep 7: It's come from vol 4.5 and Karuizawa story BUT they replace COMPLETELY by Horikita.
That's why Japaneses and Chineses (they have all 6+ 4.5 volumes translation) are pissed now. They replaced top 1 and 3 favorite and important girl development (especially Karuizawa Kei who is the closest person to Ayanokiji and the person he trusts the most right now)

Really hope that this anime ended getting 24 episode, seeing that ep 7 & 8 are almost completely fanservice-based and add little to nothing to the main plot.

I just want more screen time for development between Ayanokoji with other heroines especially Ichinose, she's totally my type.

You don t know It won t get season 2 just wait and see. Do everyone have to bitch about every little flaws in every anime?? Youkoso at least don t drift off from Light novel completely. I agree that episode 7 and 8 have been not that good In my opinion as well. Due to unneccesary, fanservice and comedy. Plus It seems Drama and pschological work better for Ayanokouji and Horikita much better than Comedy and Fanservice.

It seems when Comedy and Fanservice happens, Ayanokouji and Horkikta looks out of place due to their personality. This what happen In this last two episode. Plus many annoying characters such as Kushida,Honami,Ryuen,Sudo and those other friends of Sudo.

Judge this anime until It finish.

In the first place, actually wishing for a series with little source material to actually receive another anime adaptation is purely dumb. As you know, this has just to be for the sake of selling the source material, in which I think has done its purpose.

What are you talking about? These flaws are not little. I already said im not 100 percent sure it wont get a second, i said most likely. Comedy and fanservice arent the main reason people are beginning to dislike what theyre doing to this anime

The anime is alright. Could be better. The problem is if you read the LN they destroyed what could of been amazing episodes. Like why would they not even introduce one of the top 3 most liked girls in the anime? They literally replaced her. The only reason this anime is at 7.99 rating on myanimelist is because ayanokoji is carrying the anime to be honest with you.

If they made this anime just like the LN, and it was 24-25 episodes plus OVAs, id consider this to be AOTY. But they screwed it over. Thats how good the LN is. Which is why its sells are doing amazing in Japan right now

There are plenty of anime that got a second season when it started with little source material. Its not like im saying a season 2 could of came in the next season or two. But if it got good sales and popularity in Japan, possibly in the next 1-3 years.

I don't think it could've ever been the next Oregairu given how one note the cast is in Classroom of the Elite and the general lack of depth in comparison. I kept on watching the show because of how fun it generally is--I wanted to see Ayanokouji punch holes into the system and build a small army of upper-class confidants, but these last two episodes aren't giving me any of that.

Still going to watch this show until the end anyway; curious to see how bad a trainwreck we're going to get.

So much truth...

I think it still has potential, but the characters are all lacking in depth and it's a bit too edgy, not in the good way either like Oregairu. It's like an edgier Oregairu with less likable characters, hotter girls and more fan service. Entertaining, but average.

You guys complete wrong. They're complete different. People compare this and OreGairu but they are have different setting and character.
Story:
OreGairu: story about Volunteer Service Club helping hand other student in school and development about personality, life each of character. SoL is the most focus in this.
Youkoso Jitsuryoku: it can say "baka to test" but serious and darker. And author confirm that vol 6 is just begin story. Vol 1-5 are just build up. So about development is hard to say what about.
Character: most of us mistake about this because the setting "3 characters: 1 lazy ass, deadpan eyes guy with 2 girls. 1 genius black long anti-social has small boobs/ flat and 1 genki girl has big boobs". But:
OreGairu:
> Hachiman: a narcissistic and semi-nihilistic tendencies guy who just a normal human had problem about his past made him a loner. He helps people because he is forced but in sometimes he does because he want.
> Yukino: a genius "Yamato nadeshiko" who has problem about social but willing helping people and doesn't look down them. She wants to becomes the ideal girl like her sister.
> Yui: genki girl, big boobs, a normal girl who try her best to help people and club.
Youkoso:
> Ayanokiji: a genius/ superhuman (can say so because he can effort any strength to pass or get scores as he want), a lab rat, psychopath (many LN readers say that because he kinda crazy and he has twist personality like Kushida). He never think people in his eyes is his friend or comrade include Horikita (although he want to make friend) and using/ manipulate people as his tool to achieve the goal (kinda crazy right?). In LN, he has more emotions and kinda pervert in someway but overall he is still cold af.
> Horikita: maybe can say she like Yukino but bigger boobs but she completely anti-social because she want not because the past herself. She looks down most people and think they're idiot. She also use other people to achieve her goal but less crazy than Ayanokiji.
> Kushida: yeah, nothing like Yui (i must say Ichinose is "Yui-like" more than Kushida). She "kind, friendly" with big boobs but she has twist personality and totally antagonist (in current volume she's completely enemy now and she gonna get ass kick because she pissed Ayanokiji too much)

In Anime, they cut and replace many things to build up (epscially like most of LN readers say they replace Horikita to 2 important girls lines/ role). And ep 7 they bring the side story to main story so it becames waste and useless ep.

I disagree. How are they trying to make Horikita like Yukino? They are completely different imo.

Horikita is a loner who doesn't like to associate herself with people. She opens up a bit to the mc because she trust him a bit. She still doesn't try to associate herself with anyone else.

Yukino is somewhat of a loner herself, but she doesnt necessarily try to be one. And she isnt just friends with the mc, she has more friends (obviously she likes the mc the most). Of course id take a yukino over a horokita any day.

Im not even going to start on how different Hachiman and Ayanakoji is.

Give it up dude. There are many retards comparing this to oregairu. In terms of depth and legendary quotes then oregairu wins. Youjitsu honestly feels like Grisaia giving more emphasis to the school settings. I got downvoted to death in other forums since they cant accept the fact that this is different to oregairu.

Though i'd probably cringe if they change the victim from karuizawa to horikita in this arc. Like horikita discovering class a hideout instead of sakura and horkita's underwear being stolen instead of karuizawa.

If lerche is still retarded and heads over heels to horikita then IM CALLING IT. I genuinely hope im wrong though.

Well, i know this LN because manga (when i know it come from LN and writen duo Kinu and illustration by Tomose) i kinda like Horikita in the 1st place because her look. But after i read spoiler and read chinese translation by... google trans make me more exciting other girls than her especially Karuizawa and Ichinose.
But right now, anime made me hating her because they replace other girls development by her. It's annoying.

So much negativity here. I mean, I understand that people are disappointed that one of their favorite parts and/or arcs of a light novel are changed for no good reason, and though I understand why they did it (establishing a strong female lead to draw the audience in, giving them a ship and all that), having Horikita take up the roles of other characters seems like a pretty lousy decision that was inevitably going to backfire with light novel readers. Having said that, from what I've read about it (not a light novel reader myself), not adapting the Karuizawa arc seems like a good choice to me. Sure, they shouldn't have been adapting a story from two volumes ahead to begin with, but given that they decided to do so, replacing Karuizawa was the correct decision. Why? Because you can't just take a significant character moment from two volumes ahead and expect it to fit in. It would have revealed important information and would have changed the character dynamics prematurely. More importantly, though the filler/fanservice episodes were annoying and broke up the pace of the series, and some characters are probably getting more spotlight than they should, for the regular viewer, there's still a lot to like. Ayanokoji is my favorite MC this season (maybe even this year), with how mysterious and composed he is, and the atmosphere is quite nice. It strikes a good balance between comedy and tension, and the soundtrack is fitting. Could this show have been better? No question. But it's still pretty good, and all this talk of dropping it because of a few admittedly questionable decisions seems like a major overreaction to me.

I didn't read the LN and everyone is talking about Karuizawa... As far as I understand from anime she is totally in love with Hirata and dates him. What she has to do with Ayanokoji?

You can read about it here (spoilers, obviously).

I'm loving this show (btw, I'm pretending the Operation: break into girls bathroom's episode never happened), It's a rare case that makes me want to read the novels. I hope to buy them soon, not sure from where to import it though. If it really is that better then the anime, dude in heavens... I'm going to have a great time!

Well, I enjoyed this show more because I dont read the source material.

If season 2 happens then f**k yeah

But seriously, it's kinda pathethic this show gets flanked just because they deviate a lil' from the source (LN). The show hasn't even finished airing yet. Obviously they will cut some stuff out where necessary.

I don't see the 'wow' factor if you already know what is ahead of the episodes (from reading the LN), which is why I'd stay away from the LN until a show ends no matter how great they are.

Ignorance is a bliss :)

Edited:
And can someome share/point me the statistics showing that the number of LNs reader watching this show is more (majority) than the viewers who never read the LNs?

Then i'd agree with your opinion at face value.

So much negativity here. I mean, I understand that people are disappointed that one of their favorite parts and/or arcs of a light novel are changed for no good reason, and though I understand why they did it (establishing a strong female lead to draw the audience in, giving them a ship and all that), having Horikita take up the roles of other characters seems like a pretty lousy decision that was inevitably going to backfire with light novel readers. Having said that, from what I've read about it (not a light novel reader myself), not adapting the Karuizawa arc seems like a good choice to me. Sure, they shouldn't have been adapting a story from two volumes ahead to begin with, but given that they decided to do so, replacing Karuizawa was the correct decision. Why? Because you can't just take a significant character moment from two volumes ahead and expect it to fit in. It would have revealed important information and would have changed the character dynamics prematurely. More importantly, though the filler/fanservice episodes were annoying and broke up the pace of the series, and some characters are probably getting more spotlight than they should, for the regular viewer, there's still a lot to like. Ayanokoji is my favorite MC this season (maybe even this year), with how mysterious and composed he is, and the atmosphere is quite nice. It strikes a good balance between comedy and tension, and the soundtrack is fitting. Could this show have been better? No question. But it's still pretty good, and all this talk of dropping it because of a few admittedly questionable decisions seems like a major overreaction to me.


Usually when people say theyll drop an anime theyre lying. I wont drop this anime but im simply disappointed. Yes, to someone that hasnt read the LN i can see why this anime is still really good to thim. Ayanokiji is a great relief for anime watchers that are getting tired of these lame ass MCs with a horrible character. But, im not sure, you seem like a casual anime watcher. In Japan they are hardcore anime watchers and dont play around when it comes to this shit. It may not be serious to me or you, but it is to them. And anime producers dont care too much about us in America (or where ever you live) they really only care about what people think in Japan. Also i cant agree with you on the not putting karuizawa in was a good idea part. It makes no sense not to. She wouldnt of revealed anything lol she literally would of just did exactly what horikita did. And the MC trusts karuizawa more than anyone so why wouldnt they put her in the anime? It just doesnt make since.

I disagree. Watching something you read makes it that much more amazing. I get your point though.

Did you say "Deviate a lil" lol they literally didnt introduce a main character. Like I said above i can tell you arent from Japan, also what we think dont matter only Japan :/. Like how people outside of Japan hated ReZero because of Subaru, but Japan loved it

I dont know the statistics about that, hopefully someone else does, but im pretty sure the majority are LN readers. If they read the LN im sure theyd most likely watch the anime.

Deviation seems to be a huge predictor in whether an adaptation gets a second season, because the more deviation there is the less likely it is for the series to be corrected.

In this case though I'm not sure the deviations are plot-significant enough to warrant some doomsday prediction. Well, if people cared about deviations that much, anime adaptations wouldn't be as free-wheeling as they are now. We'll see.
