Classroom of the Elite (Light Novel) Vol. 8

It's not bad bad but somehow it feels more like a side story than an actual main story arc. Like everything happen seems like had nothing to do with the main character, which actually okay, sometimes a series need something like this to develop other characters, too. But this one is pretty boring and somewhat pointless.

> You don’t need to change your personality to be a part of society. You’re free to express your individuality, of course, but you must take other people’s feelings into consideration as you venture out into the world. Short summary of the review Due to a new enemy being introduced in this volume it might it immediately appealing and interesting …

After 7 and 7.5 there was a high bar to reach and frankly volume 8 didn't come close. Especially since the real meat of the story is in the last 100 (or fewer) pages. Not to mention the totally inexplicable episode in the middle of it all. On the whole I was just a bit disappointed in this book. I …

this exam was pretty pointless ngl

3.25 I liked this one more in the anime. But quite a fast read nonetheless. Interesting to see all the ally ships building. But the measurement competition in the middle.... What was that

"You don't even need me to answer, do you? I won't let you get expelled. No matter what methods I have to use." Nagumo plays dirty. He's clever and sneaky like a rat, but that's actually why I like his character. Other than Ayanokouji, the other characters aren't very deceptive. I guess you can argue that Kouenji is also that …

The whole training exam seems stretched out and the ultimate outcome was not that impactful as well. It did not change the progress or put any proper characters in danger as well. In reality the whole exam seemed irrelevant with any major character development or change. This edition did not add any value to the contents and one can easily …

2.5/5 بعد چند سال که ولوم 7(پیک ناول) خونده بودم و برگشتم ادامه بدم ولی الان خیلی راحت با خوندن ولوم 8 ناامید شدم... بنظرم باید ضعیف ترین ولوم کل سری باشه و در نهایت یکم بهتر شد ولی درکل کاری کرد که فعلا سری کنار بزارم تا ببینم فصل دوم در چه حدی اقتباس میشه و بعد تصمیم به …

3.5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (spoilers for future volumes!!) Definitely more of a chill volume after the craziness that was volume seven, but I still really liked this one!! As I predicted from 7.5, there was a lot of development from the upperclassmen this arc. From the beginning to the climax / plot twist at the end, Manabu and Nagumo’s rivalry was …

This was volume was one of my favorites as well! I know some people say it's boring since they're at a camp and are following the same set schedules. But I just enjoyed the dynamics between the guys from other classes. Yes there was one I didn't like and I'm glad the anime skipped it idc. Koenji was the golden …

A new Game Theory aspect on display. Cooperation and weaponized sacrifices. Some nasty shit. I'm really enjoying the mechanics in this series. It can teach quite a bit about politics. :) Personal note: If anyone reading my reviews is be interested in reading my SF (Very hard SF, mind you), I'm open to requests. Just direct message me in goodreads …

Okay this is the first volume so far that i give 3 stars to instead of 5... it's just a whole bunch of nothing. If i could i'd give it 2.5 simply because even though stuff happens, it feels like nothing happens at all. Last few pages were somewhat interesting, but again, it was just... nothing, lmao. Volumes 4.5 and …

I say I love this series, but it's a lot more I like how it plays out more than other works, the whole, "Look at this mess we made for ourselves, now we have to fix everything" setting. It's less that the solutions are particularly clever or anything so much as the fact that they're nonviolent and relatively ordinary (no …

Okay, this is a WEIRD one. After the Sports Festival and the abdication of Council President of Horikita's brother, we've got a semi-big bad start up in this with Nagumo (and I hate him) who is sort of a semi-retarded Light Yagami if I were to give him a term. The volume involves a winter excursion to a school camping …

Even though this volume meanders quite a bit and ultimately doesn't achieve much, it's still Classroom of the Elite. I'd read 500 pages of Kiyotaka pondering his way through math homework with pleasure. Nagumo isn't quite the villain that Ryuuen was for me at this point. It's going to be hard to top that fight in Volume Seven, but Ryuuen …

There is something about these books that take space in a specific bubble of time and/or event, and I will still read hundreds of pages about it. I love delving into Ayanokoji's mind, and discovering his plans, even if they are simply doing nothing. He's an unreliable narrator, so it's fun to pick out bits and pieces of what are …

A very interesting volume, to say the least. A number of silly things happened, like the whole measuring contest for example. On the other hand, a more serious theme throughout was the introduction of Nagumo's methods. It seems he is shaping up to be a kind of "super villain" for Ayanokoji to take down. Koenji also got some more spotlight, …

Classroom of the Elite Vol. 8 By Syougo Kinugasa Another special exam is finally here. This one felt a bit, lacklustre compared to the others. There was progression, but it seemed rather slow. This gotta be my least favourite volume in the series. The special test was okay, nothing too exciting. I thought the anime had done a better job …

**Crazy test** It’s been a while since I’ve read a COTE book, so I was a little overwhelmed with all the names. But, it quickly became like riding a bike. I missed these too smart for their own good high schoolers and this exam pushed them like never before. Well, not all of them. We get to learn more about …
