Kōdo Ikusei Senior High School, a leading prestigious school with state-of-the-art facilities where nearly 100% of students go on to university or find employment. The students there have the freedom to wear any hairstyle and bring any personal effects they desire. Kōdo Ikusei is a paradise-like school, but the truth is that only the most superior of students receive favorable treatment.

The protagonist Kiyotaka Ayanokōji is a student of D-class, which is where the school dumps its “inferior” students in order to ridicule them. For a certain reason, Kiyotaka was careless on his entrance examination, and was put in D-class. After meeting Suzune Horikita and Kikyō Kushida, two other students in his class, Kiyotaka’s situation begins to change.

Classroom Of The Elite Year 1

The special exam was a difficult subject to talk about in class.


There was such a bad atmosphere hanging over the classroom that it felt like you could reach out and feel the tension in the air.


I exchanged greetings with Haruka as I sat down in my seat.


I couldn't feel any enthusiasm from the expressions of the students who had already arrived in the classroom.


The idea of being targeted by censure votes had gotten in the way of normal class relations, making them impossible to maintain. This was probably going to continue until the end of the special exam.


And it would probably even continue for a while after that.


[The classroom's atmosphere is super gloomy, isn't it?]


[Nothing yet. Sure enough, they're all on guard, aren't they~?]


In the classroom, it was impossible to know when somebody could be listening. 


No one would carelessly drop specific names about who they intended to vote for. 


[Here's hoping for better luck tomorrow, then.]


After this short exchange, I put away my cell phone.


Without standing out or causing any problems for the class, we'd simply sit back and wait for the storm to pass.


If only our classmates would allow us to have such an easy way out of this.
