******************SPOILER WARNING**************************
When I saw that the show was going to be set in an advanced engineering high school run by a megacorp on a space colony, that sounded amazing, and when the first episode showed that the program was being shut down and they needed to save it, I thought it was also going to be great! Love Live was one of my favorite high school anime, and they did the "save the school" plot very well, so I was expecting similar themes running in Classroom Crisis- namely, the class pulling together and making a stand to save the program with their own hands. Now, this did technically happen sorta, but it was merely a background event, and most of the class did not have much in the way of character development or exploration.
What ended up taking center stage most of the time was the business end of the corporation, intra-family backstabbing at the top of the ladder, and political bullshit less interesting than the US primary races happening now. Only towards the end did we get some interesting development with our resident anti-hero/anti-villain (he swayed back and forth for a while) essentially finding out that he was a kagemusha for one of the other students, but that didn't even get revealed properly at the end to the other characters, so it was a bit of a waste of a plot point for so few of the characters to even find out about it.
***************SPOILER WARNING OVER************************
With that said, if I weren't forced to watch it for TLC purposes, I would have dropped this show quicker than a hot frying pan. It was far too boring most of the time, and we didn't have too many well-developed characters to like. I give it a 4/10.
