Classroom for Heroes is one of those anime that make a revelation, and after watching them, you can better understand the anime.

Let me explain:

Anime, like other artistic expressions, has genres. One of the main ones is comedy.

However, after watching Classroom for Heroes, I realized that anime actually has two types of comedy. The first is the classic, which can be compared to the same comedy from TV series or movies. Examples? Ranma 1/2, Spy x Family, or One Punch Man.

However, there is another branch of humor in anime. I’ll call it “Crazy Japanese Humor.” What kind of comedy is this? This comedy is characterized by being crazy, illogical, and irreverent. To help the reader understand, I will give two examples that take the genre to the limit: Excel Saga or Dotto! Koni-chan.

In these anime, logic loses its meaning. The important thing is to be crazy, and there are no considerations to take it to the extreme. Other newer examples would be KonoSuba or Akiba’s Trip. I invite the reader to compare the humor of any of these anime with Spy x Family, and you will realize that it is not enough to be funny here. You have to be crazy!

Classroom for Heroes is an example of this “Crazy Japanese Humor” genre, although obviously, it does not take the genre to the limit, definitely, its value lies not in telling a great story, but rather, in being crazy, irreverent, and making people laugh.

I make this introduction, dear reader, so that you know what we are talking about with this anime. There are no great mysteries, no great plot, but the value of this anime is not in that. The author neither tries nor seeks it. The important thing is to laugh, and guys, you will laugh a lot here.

Because this anime touches on a niche genre, it is not for everyone, but without a doubt, if you enjoy anime like Excel Saga or KonoSuba, you will find in Classroom for Heroes a good anime that will make your afternoons pleasant.

THE GOOD. You can forget about logic and just focus on laughing.

THE BAD. You laugh, but not that much. It’s an average anime, far from masterpieces of the genre.

THE HIGHLIGHT. This anime has many characters, and I would say that all of them develop well. At first, I thought the author would not achieve it, but in character development, he definitely got a 10.
