Classroom of The Elite: Synopsis
Classroom of The Elite will take you to the world of the intelligent protagonist Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, who gets admission to government established school, Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing School (Kodo Ikusei), where the superior students from all over the country get admitted for a better future for the country and themselves. From a career perspective, even Kiyotaka finds this school a better option but clumsily passes the entrance exam.
Even though he gets an admission, he fails to acquire a place in the superior and extra-clever students’ classroom, so, the authorities dump him in a class full of inferior students, popularly known as Class D.
Kiyotaka Ayanokoji’s nature is depicted as a bit private. He is the one who loves staying away from recognition and observing people’s actions to manipulate them. So, at the start, no one gets to know what kind of person he is, but gradually, all the layers of his discreet personality are uncovered.
Kodo Ikusei is the dream school of all students in Japan but very few students can get into it. But those who do, get caught up in certain situations that are beyond the expectations of an ordinary person. Kiyotaka Ayanokoji unveils the darkest secrets hidden behind the pleasant façade of this school that drastically changes his life.
How many volumes of the light novel have been covered in the first two seasons of Classroom of The Elite?
As mentioned earlier, there are 11 volumes and 3 short story collections that the author has published for year 1 of Classroom of The Elite. So how many are covered till now and how many are expected to get covered in season three? Here’s what we know.
As the first two seasons have already been released, those who also read the light novel must have been aware that only the first three volumes were covered in season 1. Subsequently, in season 2, the next four volumes were covered. So; ultimately, only four volumes i.e. volume 8 to volume 11.5, are remaining that fans expect to see in the third season. But if the show concludes with all four volumes, the first year in the classroom of The Elite will come to an end, and then there would be a high probability whether or not the show would renew for the fourth season.
Well, Only time can make things clear. But if the show renews for the fourth season, there is a possibility that it will start with the second year and may continue for the next 2-3 seasons. However, both manga and light novels creations for the second year are ongoing, so fans may have to wait a bit longer for the anime adaption of the Year 2 arc.
