Classroom of the Elite: Year 2 (Light Novel) Series

The cutthroat school drama light novels that inspired a manga adaptation and a spin-off series starring fan-favorite character Horikita Suzune (both also from Seven Seas)—and don’t miss the anime!

As Ayanokouji and his classmates begin their second year at the Advanced Nurturing High School, they’re greeted by a fresh gauntlet of exams and a fresh batch of rather unique first-year students. They’ll have to get to know each other quickly, because the first special exam pairs the first-years with the second-years on a written test—with only the second-years facing expulsion if their team performs poorly! Worse yet? It seems one of the new first-years is also from the White Room. Can Ayanokouji avoid expulsion while sussing out the identity of this hidden foe?

COME OUT ON TOP, OR SINK TO THE BOTTOM

Winter vacation is over, and there’s no time to lose. The third semester kicks off with the announcement of the “Survival Elimination Special Exam,” a battle between the four classes! They will face off against each other in various subjects to see who reigns supreme. But this isn’t any ordinary exam: fail to snatch first place, and your class’s points will be slashed! With the stakes this high, nobody can afford to hold back!

CHRISTMAS CONTROVERSY

The second winter vacation at the Advanced Nurturing High School has arrived at last! But Ayanokouji’s Christmas plans with Karuizawa fall through when she comes down with the flu, leaving him to spend the holidays alone… Or so he thinks, but the other classes’ leaders won’t stop blowing up his phone! Meanwhile Ayanokouji himself seems to have become the subject of gossip and speculation, as his classmates wonder: is he hiding something?

100 QUESTIONS, 100 ANSWERS

The final special exam of the semester is on the horizon: a cooperative written test where students answer problems in turn. Horikita’s class is up against Sakayanagi’s, and everyone rushes to prepare. As this goes on, Nagumo poses a question of his own—who will be the next student council president? The candidates are Horikita and Ichinose…or are they? Does Ichinose have other plans? December may be the end of the year, but the school’s new state of chaos is only beginning.

DESTINATION: HOKKAIDO

It’s school trip time! With a promise of no special exams, students assume it’ll be a normal school outing. However, they find themselves split into groups that include students from all four classes, not just their own. With Ryuuen in Ayanokouji’s group, is there any chance this trip will go smoothly? Meanwhile, something happens that may significantly change the relationship between some students…

A TALE OF TWO CAFÉS

It’s time for the school’s first-ever Cultural Festival! Some refuse to participate, but the rest of Ayanokouji’s class secretly works to build the maid café of their dreams. Ryuuen realizes what they’re up to and declares war, forcing a head-to-head battle to see which café is more profitable. But as this goes on…what business does Ayanokouji have with Kanzaki and President Nagumo?

A CLASS CRACKS UNDER PRESSURE

The results of the Unanimous Special Exam weigh heavily on Ayanokouji’s class. Kushida, Hasebe, and Wang haven’t come to school in days. But time marches on, and when details of the Sports Festival are announced, Horikita’s opponents disrupt the planning meeting. The class is now behind before the games can even begin! Can everyone live with the choices they’ve made and come out on top?

A UNANIMOUS DECISION

As the second semester begins, two additional events are announced: the school’s sports festival and its first-ever cultural festival! But before these two can kick off, an unexpected special exam will be held. The rules seem simple, but the questions might be heavier than anyone expects… Are the students truly ready to cast their final votes?

SUMMER VACATION ON THE OPEN SEAS

The exam is over and the students’ summer break has started aboard a luxury cruise ship! Unfortunately, it’s not all fun in the sun. Ryuuen is on the hunt for the person that attacked Kinoshita and Komiya on the island, and for some reason, the entire third-year class seems to be watching Ayanokouji very, very closely… Can everyone enjoy their vacation despite the rough waters ahead?

“I’M NOT AFRAID OF BEING EXPELLED”

Tensions are high as the students of the Advanced Nurturing High School enter the second week of this special exam taking place on an uninhabited island. Students from all grades are getting ready to make their final moves, and so is Acting Principal Tsukishiro. Who will come out on top? And who will be packing their bags to leave the island–and the school?

THIS ISLAND’S NO PARADISE

The special exam on an uninhabited island has begun! For two weeks, students will do their best to visit checkpoints and complete challenges to gain points with their groups. Well, except for Ayanokouji, who has opted to tackle this exam on his own… or has he? Nanase, a first-year student from Class D, breaks off from her own group and asks to tag along with him, but there doesn’t seem to be anything in it for her. Just what is this under-classman’s goal?

TROUBLE ON THE ISLAND

Ayanokouji’s relationship with Karuizawa deepens, while the aftershock of his perfect mathematics score ripples through the school. Horikita asks to join the student council, and is accepted by Nagumo. And summer vacation brings with it no rest, but another special exam–a reprise of the earlier deserted island test. Except this time, it’ll be a battle royale with all three grade levels duking it out against each other!

NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK
