| I really like Horikita, she is like an extremely elitist version of Yukino lol. Ayanokouji is also pretty interesting, didn't expect that fight scene at all. He is clearly lying about his past. Kushida didn't turn out to be the super annoying character I envisioned her to be yet so that's also a plus. |
HereticHunter said: wow lol, only the LN readers noticed the "rush" that was on this episode, for me it felt quite well paced, the MC is quite an interesting subject, can't wait for next episode It isn't just rushed, numerous points changed But yeah, it is going extremely faster than the LN for sure. |

| A lot of people seem to be saying that this was a really rushed episode, but to me it honestly felt as if it was reasonably well-paced. In any case it was interesting to learn about the S-System and also to see some developments in the main group dynamic. It's also nice to see that this S-System does actually provide the students a chance to improve themselves rather than the system being used for arbitrary discrimination like in Assassination Classroom. |
| Not as good as the first episode, but still very strong and interesting. |
| Kiyotaka is surely an interesting guy alright, he has those fighting skills, that's for sure. Wonder what's up with this whole S-system. Nice episode. |
  |
| Well MC caught me off guard, despite his monotone no fucks given face he dodged those attacks like a pro, MC pulled a 180 on my list. This episode just got me more hooked, cliche BS beta MC would have gotten his ass kicked then and there and have the girl stop his bro thus saving his ass, glad this didnt pull that route. |

But yeah, I liked the episode but the pacing was questionable at parts. There's literally 0 explanation how the whole class passed the midterm; hopefully they'll have an info dump explanation next ep at least. Also looks like they're probably saving a certain scene for later, which actually might not be a bad idea tbh. |
| Seems this school doesn't place much emphasis on values and moral behaviour . the student council president is the kind go guy who on the sly was going to strike his little sister in her stomach. Some leader he is. I like our MC. |

They'll probably explain it that they did a 2nd group study session as mentioned by LN reader above, that moe blob girl said she will help them too anyway. The pacing is quite good actually, there's seldom "wait, whut?" moment. |

i was kinda like "wtf" at the "we all achieved high scores" when they didn't really show any studying.. however sexy big boob girls in swimsuits >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> plot ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)  BAE<3 ill be waiting for her merch for sure but every girl in this show is fine as fuck, and gat damn is that teacher sexy, she can talk me down any day |

| I can now see why this was labeled a comedy. My dude has some amazing reflexes, and good fighting skills and he credited that to piano and calligraphy. That caught me off guard. |
 |
| @CreativeMax They'll definitely show rooftop scene and 2nd time group-learning. At least in flashbacks... @EcchiLordMamster finally someone acknowledging Kushida's beauty. Most beautiful and kindest girl ever <3 and those eyes Aaah. Horikita is fine in swimsuit as well, but she was just sitting straight without showing off anything :P @ButadonMeitante The reason why he scored 70 on the most recent exam is because if you score beyond average you would be kicked out. But they dont know what that average is gonna be, so he cant risk it. If everyone in his class do very well on exams and average is higher than 65 then him scoring low there will result in him being expelled. So not risking too much he tried to aim to score relatively high, 70 is not that high but definitely enough to score higher than classes average. The reason why he tries to score 50 and lower is because he doesnt want to stand out if someone didnt realize. Btw pretty funny how their smartphones look way too good (Sasuga Lerche) they look even better than smartphone in Isekai smartphone <3 And that fight animation Aaah Hands down to Lerche... |
| To be honest, this episode wasn't as great as the first but it was fairly enjoyable and interesting itself. Ayanokouji seems like a really strong main character as well as an intelligent one so that's nice to see. Personally, I found the ending where the whole class passed, that too with high grades, was quite the shocker. Seeing Ayanokouji's eye enlarge makes me think there was an involvement from a third party perhaps which he is already aware of or something of the sort, I mean its highly unlikely that he would do something out of the ordinary for his fellow classmates. |

| Interesting..... never knew piano and calligraphy would allow you to fight like that :P Obviously there's more to Ayanokouji than meets the eye. Looking forward to seeing just what it is that motivates him to score so low. Also, how the heck did everyone else manage to boost their scores so suddenly? It makes no sense.... Are their whole class full of lazy geniuses??? And LoL at the ED where they showed how many points everyone has left. That was a nice touch. |

The pacing is quite good actually, there's seldom "wait, whut?" moment. I know how it happened because I read the first volume of the LN, but I'd be surprised if they gave more than a brief explanation here. I'm just wondering how much of the skipped content they'll cover in the next episode. If they're just rearranging scenes that's fine with me, if they're completely glancing over them I'll be somewhat bothered. Guess there's nothing to do but wait in that respect. But oh well, soon enough they'll start covering stuff I didn't read so the pacing stuff will probably become less noticeable. |
| Enjoyable episode. Plenty of mysteries and interesting character interactions. |
 |
| MC is something here...he is strong and looks like he intentionally gets that kind of scores. Anyway, I don't like Kushida at all. She is somewhat annoying... Suzune on the other hand, she is awesome. |

|
| That little fight at the end completely surprised me lol, |
 |
| That pool scene though, his body totally turned her on lol |

| Whoa whoa, for real? They jumped to the hi-scoring test without explaining what led up to it? Or are they going to reverse-tell the story next episode? *blinks* Now I'm curious how they're going to resolve this... |
| I most certainly wasn't expecting to see that short fight between Ayanokoji and Horikita's jackass brother. It was pretty cool, and there's definitely something the MC is hding (I highly doubt he knows how to fight because of piano, calligraphy, and tea ceremony). Not to mention the whole thing about him intentionally rigging his entrance exam scores, which also adds suspicion in regards to his past. I think it didn't really come as a surprise that Class D did well on their exams but I hope they explain how that happened. It feels like it just simply happened out of nowhere, so hopefully they fill in the gaps. |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Even if it is rushed I think this pacing is more appropriate. Plus the anime is really just there to boost LN sales anyways... so details can be omitted. They would probably have to explain how the high scores came about in a flashback. This happens all the time. A sort of cliffhanger type ending to keep us guessing or wanting more. |
 |
| This MC dodges that stupid punch like a pro. Very interesting story, I hope that it will get explained how they suddenly raised their scores? There is also no way that scoring all subjects on 50 is a concidence. |

| I like this anime, the MC dodging surprised me |
| I don't know what to put here |
| I'M LOVING THIS! RELEASE ALL THE EPISODES THIS INSTANCE! Ayanokuji is a great MC, been a while since I liked a MC alot! That mini fight scene was so well done! Of course he plays the piano so that's why he's that strong. Also Horikata definitely got turned on by his body LMAO |
 |
| Really interesting episode. Nice to see a different side of Horikita, Wish the mc had hit her brother in the face. Epic short fight scene! Can't wait to see more! |
 |
| Amazing episode again, only cliffhanger I'll gladly accept. |
 |
| This MC is an absolute badass and elite student. I wonder what he is actually trying to do though? What his goal he, he intentionally went into that lower class. Really looking forward to watching the next episode. |

| Episode 2 delivering again, my expectations are increasing. The phone scene was hilarious, Horikita doesn't approve. That action scene against the student council president was short but super intense, loving the art and animation of this anime. Dat cliffhanger, that caught me completely off guard, I need to see how they made things change that hard. |
 |
| well, it was a pain in the ass to finish this episode ill try another episode but i think ill end up dropping after that pretty surprised by the high amount of people enjoying this so far :/ |
 |
| Dam those dodging skillz. He really needs to be apart of a sports club or some shyt. |
| 1- Thanks god we have a good MC that dodge from Ayanokouji and those fighting defensive skills, this guy has alot of secrets i like it. 2- I guess Suzune has brocon (or just want to really prove herself to her brother) 3- That Kushina Swimsuit scene plus the after shower scene "the plot" was intense LEL ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 4- I would totally love if this anime got 24-26 episodes.. but i can see already 12-13 lol coming around the corner. |

| going to practice piano and calligraphy later on. damn, already expect something from him but that was really caught me off guard, obviously he is smart or somewhat at least play it cool, now that really made me curious about his careless on his entrance exam. Barely see the fourth mc, karuizawa or I didnt see her at all(?). and finally, something school life anime that is worth to watch. anyone can update me, are anime still adapting in volume 1? |

| I like how much we don't know about the MC and the system. With the revelations that the MC is actually pretty badass, I'm finding it hard to wait another week for this. |
bobzanny said: Wow so they do almost all of vol.1 in 2 episodes, cutting out most of the classes character development. Not too happy about that especially since it hurts the MC the most and the setup for vol.2 will be lacking. At least the parts that were adapted were done well. Indeed im sure it is cutting stuff; but if it adapted everything wed likely be sitting at ep 3-6 and still be in vol 1 ; likely trying to do what they can in the time allotted though I understand I never like the cuts/ |
| Ayanokoji is too smart able to rig his test. This show makes me want to dig more about each characters' personality. Cause those students able to score high points in the exam. Ayanokoji got 70. Did he rig or it is true? What true purpose of him getting into the school? |
