Shet just got soo real. But didnt expect Class C to pull the highest score. Though its hard since Class D has to work together in harmony to aim for highest score.


Spread your legs/ wing - damn that was on another level (that was hot).

I am starting to like Karuizawa, Kei more as shes def can be a player while Horkita is probably cant fool as many people while Karuizawa can play both sides of a coin.

It seems like Ichinose is able to reveal Ayanokouji plans or seeing through it

Same. What in the actual fuck is going on in this anime? Scenes just get put together to barely have any impact on the presentation level. Everything just happens with no emotional depth.

Finally, we get to see Ayanokouji back in action. It has been a while.

Also, I don't have any complaints regarding the animation.

I am a big fan of this ANIME but I feel that this particular test should have remained in LN only bcoz this test is 1000% suited for reading which is LN and not for Animation...Its not that I didnt understand this test..I fully understood it but in animation form it felt boring as its just discussion based...This whole test was so boring that I couldnt even enjoy that Spread your Legs scene😬😬😬😬😬

Man, they really nerfed this episode from the LN. The bullying was less brutal, the Ayanokouji scene was less chilling and the final test was breezed past. Also, in the LN Ichinose shows Ayanokouji how smart she is and he marks her as someone to be wary of. Here, it seemed like she just heard him and Kei talking about the plan. Makes me a bit mad since this is where people should begin to consider Ichinose as someone to look out for, but I doubt any anime only people will feel like that.

Despite my rant, the episode wasn't bad. Just a bit disappointing. I really feel like they should have gone for 4 episodes. But it is what it is.

Ayanokouji is such a bad ass to watch Karuizawa suffer in her own well of emotions, and too bad for you Yukimura, your interruption didn't help much.

More groups are wrapping up their investigations, and there is Ryuuen doing his own thing. But man, Karuizawa's bullying is hard to watch, though this proves a point in Ayanokouji using her as his tool to save time with Manabe and gang against her, and he has a point to contend against her as well. Though I certanly didn't expect him to say "Spread your legs" for Karuizawa's blackmail, this is the same Ayanokouji chad after all to acquire his chess pieces.

What Ayanokouji mentions is true: the world has far more cruelty, and for Karuizawa to get out of her spiral, she is the key to reuniting Class 1-D, and Ayanokouji will support her if it aligns to his goals. With that, the final discussion to find out the VIP...is to reveal their individually given identities to disguise out the person...and while the real VIP turned out to be Karuizawa herself, it's just a matter of playing this mental game to his liking to distract people with as few loopholes as possible.

In the end, Class C won, and Ryuuen held his stance well. This will be a problem for Class D going forward...

I'm sorry all COTE light novel fans, but this season is awfully more rushed than the first season and it's sad to see that. But I don't really know who to blame 'cuz they are trying to adapt like 3 or more volumes in 13 episodes or how many episodes we will have.

Peak COTE ongoing.

They chose to show a lot of the bullying scenes for the impact and yes it did have a lot of impact. From the start when Ayanokoji was watching her getting bullied, I was wondering why doesn't he just record it to later use the footage for his own use, I'm glad he chose to actually do it.

I have no idea why Ichinose is so nice to everyone.

As expected from Ayanokoji, that was a top-tier plan.

I wonder when they will reach school.

5/5 episode. Can't wait to watch next one.


Yeah his plan was top/tier but Ichinose saw through it and he wasn’t even surprised.

This episode was really epic. Ayanakoji stalking his prey and using it to his advantage. His plan was really top tier but I have to admit that he was outsmarted by Ichinose. She’s really clever and she saw through his plan. She’s kinda suspicious too. Ayanakoji should be very wary of her and also she has too many points. How did she accumulate that many points?

We're only 3 episodes in so I don't think we can compare it to the entirety of season 1, personally, I like those first 3 episodes more than the first 3 episodes of season 1(well, not taking the bad animation of episode 2 into account), it has more interesting stuff in my opinion, but to each their own.

Ayonokoji would watch a woman get her ass beat for his plans. I mean yeah he got video which is great but they better follow up with Kei being the leader of the girls becauseI feel like shit like this will get put on the back burners.

Idk that ending was kind of abrupt as well.

Good episode but idk felt weird.

Brrr brrr alright so guys you know that meme where they're in a church and the people inside points their gun to the front (aka the Assassination Chain meme), well obviously Yukimura is at the front praying (that he won't get reported in the AmongUs meeting), Ichinose is at the back, Class A is the other one, and then Ayanokouji is up top pointing at them all. Yeah that was the end of the exam in a nutshell.

This was a somewhat mild ending for the exam, I thought it'll be better than what we saw but for Kiyotaka it's pay to win at the end of the day. And hey aside from that, she got a battered Karuizawa at his helm right now after all that bullying, Rika bullshit, and Kei exposing her scars to him. The method was pretty rugged and somewhat heartless, but who cares +XP and an added ally for our boy, just an additional tool for his set.

I hope they get the hell out of that cruise ship after this arc though.

If you are going to be upset at the anime adaptation, be upset over their complete mishandling of the test. They even screwed up the rules in episode 1.

I was so hyped for the confrontation scene since that was what got me hooked on the LN. It's such a shame that they didn't adapt it to the T and instead cut out certain scenes. Maybe they're afraid of the backlash if Ayanokouji actually did what he did in the LN??

Now look, I love Kei but this adaptation simply doesn't do justice to how it was in the LN. If I hadn't read the LN, there's a high chance I would have been bored in this episode due to the pacing. At the very least, it captured what was going on, awkward though it may be.

Adaptation is better then season 1, but mediocre non the less.
Hirata's backstory - cut. Ichinose's story bits - almost all cut. Even with all cut content it is still very rushed. And they even botched exam results by geting extra 50 negative points out of nowhere.

Our MC didnt really do much for the class overall, everyone praises him for a plan even Ichinose came up with, but Class C got the big win here. If he wants to get into A he should step up his game.

What happened to the girl leader from A? She wasnt on the island but is she also not on the boat at all? I thought the guy from A lost his standing as leader after the Island fuck up.
Seriously A is looking like a class of noobs, how are they even in A lmao.

Ryuen is a scumbag but he has the class under control (maybe its time for a rival to show up to keep things interesting) and he is working hard and smart. You have to give him credit.

Anyone feels like Horikita is falling off as a character? She kinda doesnt do anything without MC kun telling her lately.

MC kun is a psychopath but because he is the MC I guess the anime cant make him look all that bad, I mean the scene with Kei ..

PS: If I interpret the score corrently Koenji guessed right? The guy who said "this is boring" and skipped the test on day1? Secret chad?

Good chapter, the animation seemed good to me, the scenes are well done.

Those who read the novel and comment here, mostly pirate it and come with the argument that this adaptation does not help the author. When in reality after this adaptation the novel will officially reach many places... and that is what really helps the author.
Thanks to that I will be able to read officially and properly the source material.

Not LN readers again!!! they are ruining the experience of us Anime viewers. This episode was lit, felt like 2 min episode. I was literally at the edge in whole episode, for me this surpassed EP 12 of season 1. Since I got spoiled pretty early on I know what's coming, and I am eagerly looking forward to it.

EDIT: I get the frustration of LN readers, they had invested a lot in this story, emotionally that is. But this is not a light novel, it is expected to have some slight differences. ANd I think the anime did justice to the scene. MAN!! it sure was entertaining and intense.

i kinda get them tho, they adapted half assed a scene thats a major plot-point in the whole series, even i got a lil mad over it. But thats just my opinion. what I dont get is when they get upset over the most little things and write about it here all the time.

First thing, like who the hell accepts the invitation to meet at such a suspicious place lol, and I in all seriousness burst out laughing when Manabe and her baddies started bullying Karuizawa. Though little did they know they themselves are just pawns in Ayanokouji’s grand game plan. Got evidence against them, and now even have Karuizawa as a new tool to play with. Sasuga Ayanokouji, killing two birds with one stone.

Though there are times when someone can even outsmart Ayanokouji too, and that’s exactly what Ichinose did, felt like one of those JoJo scenes, I outsmarted your outsmarting lol. And it wasn’t just Ayanokouji’s group, even the result from Horikita’s group dipped the overall results of class D, with Ryuuen and class C having the last laugh this time around as in polar opposite to what happened on island test.


How did Ichinose outsmart Ayanokouji ? She called his phone thats all, he anticipated this, so it was 2 layered trap. They didn't know who VIP really was. Ayanokouji said that she still played in their favor.
The teacher of class B said she places her in that group so that she could see her shortcommings, but i couldn't see that happenning.

It was stated more clearly in novel, but you see her conversation in the end with Ayanokouji when he was with Karuizawa, as we know she already figured Yukimura wasn't the VIP back in discussion room which in turn led everyone to believe Ayanokouji is the one, but she still didn't stop anyone even though she knew either class A or class C will betray them and will reveal the identity of VIP before anyone to score the maximum points, and that's all because she had seen through the plan behind the plan.

She knew neither Yukimura nor Ayanokouji was the VIP but someone other from class D, so that mistake from either of the traitor class will atleast won't do any loss for class B, and that's just all she wanted.

the 50 negative because of arisu absent i think , but yeah , they are rushed the anime too fast , i mean it's still ok because they can't adapt 1:1 like the LN but tbh , if they could cut the op or ed and add some important scenes like explain how class C win or add more details in some scene , it's will be better.

I feel like they are dragging the plot so slowly. At this pace they'll need another 2 seasons to finish the boat trip.

I'm not sure why they had to dedicate 3 episodes to this one game that, in the end, didn't even result in an impressive trick.

Every game ends in him buying something with points through some loophole with his teacher. If the show is supposed to be about him being a genius I'd like to see more impressive schemes.

Have you heard of media-mix project? This is not new for Lerche: Danganronpa and Idoly Pride has also been cut a lot of story material before too ...
Everyone in anime community especially in Japan know this case.
