Somehow the synopsis never appealed to me so I never bothered to check this show out. But recently with the announcement of S2, I finally decided to check this show out. What I didn't expect was for it to be a stupid unrealistic highschool drama. The characters are fine. They are average anime school characters that are present in every 7/10 anime. But what ticks me off are the absolutely unrealistic and stupid drama that they create among themselves. I have lived through both my highschool years and college years but never have I seen such BS drama in any stage of my life.

I am not going to try and explain why people like it
Since it's subjective
I liked it because of the setting, the main character (reason I picked up the Ln) and the character development and the special exams just become better and better
I advice to try and read the Light novel it explains alot the of things mostly the setting and why and how such drama is inevitable

Just try it's light novel and you'll find out " why people love this anime?" .The anime itself is not that appealing tbh still 8/10 for me and when i read it's light novel it's too good . It got such a high rating for a reason .

p.s. Don't compare your life with fictional character's XD .

so basically this is fiction and the setting is in an advanced school that is so big that it is basically a mini-city. You expect us (ordinary people) to relate the school life of these students when they are in an "advanced fictional school".

this anime is a 7/10 for me...
in other words i like it+

I guess there's a huge gap between the LN and the anime adaptation then. Not all fiction translate well to different mediums. That would explain the ratings for each of these mediums.

I feel it's really edgy and the show isn't aware of that itself, which makes it worse, the premise of the show really doesn't make much sense to me, like how the show begins with that monologue but doesn't have much weight later on, the mc is just "badass" and pretty much acts indifferent to everyone, probably one that 15 year olds or so would like and take after his personality or something lol, and yeah about the drama, it feels really underwhelming everytime, bc the mc solves 'em pretty easily, like, there's not much struggle is there? no real tension at any point in the story 'cus mr badass mc is there who can do just about anything it seems, the little bits of flashbacks about ayanokoji's backstory isn't interesting at all, you can pretty much guess what happened, although I may be wrong here, so yeah I feel this show is really underwhelming and uninteresting, let's see if it gets better now that there will be a s2
edit: oh yeah that scene where ayanokoji tickles horikita, like, wtf was even that lmao

While I do admit the at Light Novel is better, this still doesn't dismiss a person's dislike towards the anime. Afterall, the anime is inferior.

That's a shonen show that specifically has a plot based around being not too serious and it doesn't even take itself too serious. Unlike this show that does take itself serious with cliche characters and unwanted drama. There's fiction that displays one's imagination and then there's fiction that has no base whatsoever.

it's a high school anime show.90 percent of them are completely unrealistic How on earth do you think it would be anything similiar to anything you've experienced in college or high school? Are you new to this genre or new to anime in general?

Yeah I also started it cause of the s2 announcement. But it was overall meh except like 3 or 4 episodes which I liked. I had to watch it in 1.25x cause it just felt slow.

But still I would watch s2 cause Horikita lol ๐Ÿ˜


But yeah like others said, it's kinda dumb trying to find your personal life in an fictional anime. I think you should go for Slice of Life stuff if you want to see something relatable

7/10 is extremely high for what you are describing. 7 in MAL’s scoring system is “good.” And man you expect the summary of the anime to be realistic? From the first few minutes you know it would never happen in real life. It was a fun anime.
The right mindset when watching an anime is hoping that it will break your top 10

because it's good,bruh. some people just have a better taste,that's all. though I admit that LN is better. I don't see any "over drama" scene,rather,just enjoyed mc manipulate others with his plan,and the exam and school system is interesting,which make the story enjoyable. drama is not even the focus in this show,so it didn't effected me in any way. kind of worry how they would continue the story with all change that they make in s1. you should watch others show if you want some "realistic drama",like,maybe a slice of life show?

Umhmm, You were also not in a Highschool with elite students too man. It's not just a regular highschool. Just see how the highschool functions. Plus you are really comparing Real life to anime man.

What you are doing is like comparing your life to One Piece. Anime is meant to entertain us, not bore us. If your daily hs life was an anime, I would be bored to death for sure.

sheeeeeesh ppl got mad

I also dislike it a lot and it's the exact reason I'm waiting for season two. Season one has no plot (go on and tell me about the game on the island, if that's what yall call plot then miss me with that) except for a five minutes long cliffhanger at the end, obnoxious fanservice (pool episode), and a superedgy mc who hates all people because he is so edgy. It's so unenjoyable that I had to reform my rating system to grasp how boring it was.

However, season two seems promising. I know how praised the rest of the series is, and the numbers on mal/sales figures speaks for themselves. IMO depending on how big of a rabbit hole the plot's gonna be, it's either gonna be good or very good. I don't expect season two to be as bad.

That's dumb you shouldn't expect realism with this show, In the first place, no school in the world gave you 100,000 for the first month. That alone should signify that this is literally fiction, Second of all the MC personality is totally different from your usual HS boy, and third of all why even expect realism in Anime? I think the perfect show that you're talking about is Oregairu

Don't even get me started on oregairu. I never had such a depressed school life so sitting through that show was pure agony for me. I never thought highschool kids could talk like 40 year olds going through some wack shit mid-life crisis.

Isn't that why its Fictional? The premise of the entire anime is about students with unique traits in a school thats about taking others down if you wanna advance, so the drama makes sense.
