This show confused me it really did. I had no reason to love it so much but I did.
Story: Episodic and even then each episode can have multiple semi linked parts
World: While it looks amazing we find out next to nothing about it and everything we do know is mere speculation
Characters: There are 5 of them and we only care about 2 of them really
So why do I love it if there is so many downsides?
Is it the amazing art? Or even the brilliant sound and music?

The story while stale at points never seems to disappoint with even predictable story arcs being enjoyable to watch. We even got to see more of class E with almost all the characters being characters ...

Ansatsu Kyoushitsu
(Anime)

Ansatsu Kyoushitsu is an interesting anime giving you a new perspective on the OP main character trope.
The anime spends very little time establishing the strength of koro-sensei and instead focuses on character development. We see kids who seem to have lost all hope in E class and we see their development through interactions with koro-sensei.
