A student who studies in an elite famous school Mc's identity is unknown, we don't know much about him / mysterious The academy's system is similar, the way you live depends on success and intelligence 

Set in school, the protagonist is sort of a loner with the some problems regarding human interactiong and regardless of being clever they have degrading views of other people ("normies"/"tools"). There is a also a a female character with long black hair that too has superiority complex towards other people. Those slightly disfunctional people then try to get through their school lives. 

The protagonist of these light novels is someone who appears/attempts to appear as someone uninteresting and normal, and they just want to live a "normal life" - while they are actually highly abnormal existences that often throw off the plans of others with their thinking. 

Both MCs are skilled manipulators focused solely on coming out on top no matter who they have to step over in order to do it. 

Simply said, YouJitsu is basically if Baka to Testo was written not as a comedy, but wholy unironically - classes fighting each other to climb the rankings. 

-Both MCs are extremely similar, as they are both calculating and manipulative + have ulterior motives for doing what they are doing -Both have a chapter / arc that is EXTREMELY similar, premise wise / with respect to their premise The first nine chapters of Oshi no ko is like a completely different series though, and serves as a prologue of some sorts 

Both psychological games series with overpowered MC. Main difference is there is not super power system in Classroom of the Elite but the games/events are pretty similar. 

(there is a button "read more") While the settings and personalities are totally different, there are still big similarities. :: Both Ayanokouji and Sora are experts in mind games. They can figure out how their opponents think, and act accordingly. They both are most of the time steps ahead by having counter measures which will make them win in the end. Both Light Novels don't explain what countermeasures they are preparing until the very end, where they explain how they predicted everything. :: Each volume introduces you to new characters, which involves around a new game (NGNL) / event (CotE). These games / events are becoming more difficult or are at least troublesome for the MC. - Notes * NGNL is about an isekai world based on games where the MC wants to unite the world. * View is 3rd-person. * Writing style uses many symbols to express characters and emotions, furthermore using a simple speech element to important characters. * MC never lose in the end. * CotE is about a school where classes battle each other for points to reach the top. * View is 1st-person. * Writing style uses the monologue of MC and how he reads expressions of everyone and their possible thoughts. *MC strives to do whatever benefits him, even if it means losing on purpose. For CotE readers I have to highlight the tag Ecchi for NGNL, since you will encounter many Ecchi jokes and statements. For NGNL readers I have to mention CotE has a slow start, from volume 4 it gets better. read more
