On the whole, I really enjoy the concepts presented in the novel and the characters will surely become more interesting as the story goes on. A businesswoman noticed this and asked a high school student who was sitting in the priority seating section whether he would be willing to give the old woman his spot. The next day, Chabashira arrives in the classroom and presents the scores for all five tests of the midterms.

Well I read this because the anime was taking off, obviously, the Light Novel and the anime have some glaring differences, but what else is new? The entire first volume has crux moments like this and all of them are well-executed in terms of just keeping the tension and suspense high; something that I love seeing in novels. The teacher starts the swimming class and eventually instructs the class to compete with each other in a 50m freestyle separated by gender. Kiyotaka asserts that not being informed about the change in the material for the midterms was done intentionally to give Class D a disadvantage, which Chabashira admits is being unfair to them. With over 6 million of the world’s best eBooks to choose from, Kobo offers you a whole world of reading.One student, Yōsuke Hirata, speaks up to the class and proposes that everyone do introductions, while also introducing himself to the class. They ask her how she managed to rescind the expulsion, but she states that it was a secret, showing that Kiyotaka had her take credit for his plan once again. She had noticed that the Idiot Trio refused to join the study group created by Hirata, and wants Kiyotaka to get them to join a study group created by her instead so that Class D could pass the midterm exams and potentially raise their class points.

However, high school isn’t mandatory in Japan, so the concept is a little more plausible than if it took place elsewhere, such as the USA, where many states require students to attend until they are 18.Honestly, I’d like to give this light novel a high score, but the first half weighed it down too much.

Almost immediately, it is apparent that the Idiot Trio are farther behind in their studies than was initially believed, and Horikita's harsh attitude discourages them from trying further.Volume 2 serves the dual purpose of giving closure to Sudou’s subplot while expanding the scope of the cast and story significantly.

Horikita comes in second overall, with Kushida coming in fourth, and a girl named Kayano Onodera taking first place.

However, even though I really liked the premise, the nature of the school actually isn’t revealed right away. Attempting one last try, Kiyotaka requests for her to sell him a point to add to Sudō's test score and pulls out his student ID card.

A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. Chabashira reveals that Class 1-D received all of the points they were supposed to get, and goes on to reveal that their constant poor behaviour over the last month had decreased their monthly point earnings to zero as the school has evaluated them as being worth that much. They're in this government advanced school that nurtures students to support the country in the future. Also one of the girls after having her true nature and personality revealed uses false accusations of sexual assault to blackmail a male character into keeping her secret and working with her.
