Ansatsu kyôshitsu Online

When I watched the final episode, I just stared at my screen for some time. I was left with tears in my eyes, and that's something that has never happened before when I watched anime.

You know what the thing is, this anime has overall little characters starring in it. So it's very easy to care for all of them. And boy, did I care.

Ansatsu Kyoshitsu is about an assassination class, the E-class, who has to kill their teacher. Their teacher has already destroyed the moon, and is about to destroy earth as well. So, as to keep him a state secret, they give the E-class a chance of killing him. I thought this plot to be very strange and appealing. But when I watched the first episode, it was really really strange. But when you get passed that, the appealing part starts. And when you're passed the second episode and you kinda get what's going on, you won't be able to stop watching. The students grow and try out plans to kill their teacher. As the series progresses, they all develop their own skill, which allows the viewer to get to know each and every one of those students. And I really loved them. Especially Nagisa.

The anime itself never gets boring. It is funny, very emotional and it even has plot twists you didn't see coming. It has it all. Lovely characters, romance, bloodlust, secrets, tense music,... Overall, it stays with you.

The lingering and final idea the anime gave me, was that killing isn't easy. It may seem so at the beginning of the series, but it isn't. Not just because of all the planning and the risk of your own life. But because those students got in way too deep. They were too involved. And it is because of that, that this anime is so strong. It wouldn't have been if they followed one of the random assassins the government hired.

I think I'm gonna watch them all again tomorrow.

And like that it's over the two seasons of Assassination Classroom are behind me and though I believe the quality dipped I can confidently say I miss it already.

Now I'm "That guy" who wants to like anime but generally struggles. I like darker stuff and avoid the cutesy stuff which seems to make up most of the anime available. For that reason I've genuinely struggled to find both series & movies to watch.

On this occasion against my better judgement I watched the two Assassination Classroom live action movies first and was really quite blown away with how good they were. I figured the anime would be a let down by comparison and I'm still on the fence as to which is truly better.

Assassination Classroom is a beautiful intricate storyline with real depth and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sadly a large chunk of season 2 feels like filler and that really damaged it but it returned to form in it's final few episodes all leading the incredible finale.

Without a doubt this is heavily underrated as many people I've spoken to have never heard of it. It's well woven, thought provoking and powerful as well as genuinely funny in places.

One odd thing is it's tone, it's so inconsistent. It is fairly cutesy, in places is ridiculously so and yet it can switch on a dime and get really quite dark.

I am so very glad that I experienced the series as it was certainly a memorable one and one that will stay with me.

The Good:

Amazing storyline

Powerful messages

Very well written

Devastatingly good finale

Great characters

The Bad:

Cheesy soundtrack

Some over the top anime tropes

A lot of filler in season 2

Things I Learnt From This Series:

The Japanese are capable of producing something involving tentacles and school girls without blending them in a dirty way

I'm going to miss Koro-sensei and the e-class *Sadface*

The title of this anime makes it sound like a sadistic and maybe lame wannabe thriller, but in reality, Assassination Classroom is an incredibly wonderful and heartfelt story. It starts off purely humorous and light, but oh my god, it blossoms into something amazing throughout it's two seasons.

One of the most admirable things is the approach to every single character in the show; Assassination Classroom features a class of about 30 students, and surely an anime would never take the time to focus on each individual character and their talents and flaws, right?

WRONG!

By the end of the series, you seriously know about every character and get legit attached to them, which is amazing. The relationships in this show are executed perfectly, and when you give them a supernatural edge, the result is absolutely amazing. There's honestly nothing I disliked about this show, and btw, the ending made me cry so hard, and I'm not usually a cryer. Thinking back about literally any episode of AssClass makes me feel really good and happy. 10/10

This anime is true Gem and its one of my top three anime of all time. never in my imagination i would have thought while watching it that it will reach the heights of perfection that it managed to achieve. it might look like a simple average comedy anime from start but by the end of it , it will become your favorite anime and leave you in tears of both sadness and joy.All the characters are amazing and especially Koro Sensei is one of the best characters i have ever seen in anime(don't be fooled by his looks :p). Most beautiful thing about this anime is the real life lessons the students as well the viewer learns which have deep impact and could bring inspiration to someone who is struggling in his own life. Its a must see anime for anyone. even 10 stars might not be enough to justify this anime brilliance.

It's two seasons of fun, laughing, learning, caring for the characters and getting tangled up in trying to figure out how this will all end. The jokes were really well written, making me crackle sometimes with enough life lessons thrown in which made it also a heartwarming show. You really do learn to care about Koro-Sensei and his students who are trying to kill him but are gaining life lessons I wish all kids could get from a good teacher. There are twisted along the way which keep you wanting to get the next episode going.

This show offers a much more unique experience than most of the shonen animes, or shows in general. It is a flurry of different genres, all compiled into a surprisingly good mould. AC has some slice of life elements, comedic moments that fit the situation perfectly, great quality fight scenes and a deep and good character development, which contrasts to the outwardly simplistic plot.

But you have to actually see the show, before you blindly rate it. There was some guy who was complaining about the 'cheesiness' of the show, but what do you expect? It's a show centered around highschool characters, and honestly, AC is deeper than a lot of anime I've seen. There's also a good reason behind the man character's apparent 'girliness', which is very well explained in later episodes.

Season 1 sort of has a lighter feeling around it, and focuses on fun stuff, for lack of better words. Season 2 is a shade darker, with better tension, conflict and much more action.

The best part about this show is the lack of filler, and the fact that the it can match any mood you're feeling with what happens on screen. Overall, currently I name AC as the best comedic anime I've seen, which still retains a serious larger plot.

it was funny, it was witty, it was deep, it was a roller-coaster ride.

Coming from a similar education background, you tend to wonder is all the effort and sacrifice worth it. then came this show and made you look at it from a different angle.

"Tests are a good thing. The knowledge gained from a night of cramming will be all but forgotten once you hit adulthood. And that's fine. The experience you gain through competition, having sharpened your skills and broadened your minds all under the same set of rules? That's the real treasure.- Koro Sensei"

it's pillar is the comedy mixed with the right amount of seriousness with a hint of fan-service but it's core is the lessons Koro-Sensei teaches his students and indrectly to the viewers. using assassination methods as an analogy to how one should live and deal with life.

"As you go through life, the might current of society is bound to get in your way and there will certainly be times that things don't go as you'd hoped. When this happens, don't look to society for a cause. Do not renounce society. Frankly, you'd be wasting your time. Instead just say, "That's life!" and muddle your way through with frustration. Once you're past it, consider: If society's swift current is tossing you around, how should you be swimming there in it's midst. You should have learned how, here in the E class, in this assassination classroom. You don't always have to stand and face it head-on. You can run and you can hide. If it's not against the rules, you can try a sneak attack. You can use unconventional weapons. Stay determined - not impatient nor discouraged - and with repeated trial and error, you're bound to reach a splendid outcome eventually.- Koro Sensei"

like how Shirley died in Code Geass and Lancer's death in Fate Zero, this manga adaption anime brings that sting you know that's coming but you still can't avoid it.

"To kill is an action which overflows in everyday life. In actuality the more you try to be accepted, the more you kill your unrestrained self.- Koro Sensei"

this anime's openings are those openings that are boring at the start but as the story progress you tend to see the meaning behind those opening and it somehow tug that emotional string within as the countdown gets closer. this is helped by the classroom singing them together.

in the end as Koro Sensei said, "Fun times are bound to end."

the important lesson Koro Sensei ever taught Class 3-E was Nothing is ever truly wasted if you view it from a different angle and learn the lesson behind it.

"It's dangerous for them to grow up without experiencing true competition. Because they'll keep whining, even without taking the matter seriously. For those with a high level of aptitude... The sooner they know the frustration of defeat, the greater their growth will be. - Koro Sensei"

Truly, this is a masterpiece worthy of its place among the creams of the crop with Fate Zero, Code Geass, Fullmetal Alchemist, Vandread and others.

I have to say, I was literally blown away by the whole story. I mean, you would never expect a "joker face" smiley alien to become such a role model for the class of 3-E. Like he was planning to destroy the world if he didn't get killed at the end of the year but the rest of the class became so attached to him that they didn't want to kill him at all! He really did everything for them like he did want his students to have bright futures for themselves and of course they did!

I thought in the last season of episode 45, was absolutely tearjerking and heart breaking,I didn't want Nagisa to kill him but he had to since he was the student leader of the class. When Koro-Sensei called out the roll of each students names for the last time, I was trying my hardest to fight back the tears and I could've sworn the voice actor was trying hard to fight back the tears too! Then when Nagisa killed after the roll call, everyone was crying so hard and as the viewer, you just felt sick to your stomach. I was really devastated that Koro-sensei was killed and like regardless if he was a fictional character or not, throughout the series you get so easily attached by him with his humour. Except for the killing bit, I wish I was part of class 3-E because like Koro Sensei kept them all together as friends even if they going about their own ways!

I never expected to enjoy and cry to this wonderfully weird anime, I'll give it a 8/10!

To find a Japanese animated series about a high school is certainly not surprising and it may be enough to make non-fans of the so- called genre 'anime' run away. What is more, even anime fans could think of it as just another series just after watching the opening but don't be deceived by its childish appearance because you'll be missing an amazing show.

So what is the plot? A class of teenagers must kill their alien teacher because he wants to destroy the world. An apparently impossible duty is handed to them given that no forces of law had been able to kill him. However, the teacher and monster itself encourages them to do their best in their studies and in the killing task.

The attitude of the antagonist known as Koro-sense is not the only weird thing surrounding this persona, his physical appearance and sense of humour makes him a certainly flamboyant character. A 'sensei' quite different in manners to the classical mentor in science fiction stories but not less wise or lovable.

The students of this teacher are also characters who differ from typical ones, they are the worst students of an elite school. This means that they are the ones labelled as lazy or simply stupid and the shows succeeds not only in showing us their true selves and development into adulthood but also in giving a very realistic view on teenagers. While many series tend to show us plain teens with one remarkable trait, here I could see real people even in the less protagonist students. One of the most fascinating things about this show is how in the end you get to know all the students in the class and it is all about their story. Even if there are many great adult characters, they seem flawed compared to this group of teenagers. I insist, the depth of the characters makes it difficult to hate them since you are able to understand their position even when they are making mistakes.

Regarding the drawings, we again can see very idealistic drawings with characters that look like they belong to a children's show and the colours only help to convey this idea. Everything is full of colour and life in a series where the main theme is murder. The colour I think matches perfectly the antagonist friendly and joking personality as well as the didactic idea of presenting the show as a series of life lessons that young people can learn from.

As I mentioned previously, the opening of the show may give a kind of feeling that this show is going to be light yet the intensity of the most dramatic parts is well accompanied by songs that succeed in portraying the feelings of the characters as 'Moonlight' does.

The acting of the voice actors in Japanese is key to characters such as Koro-sensei with its characteristic laugh and changes in tone portraying kindness, pride and anger among other feelings. Voice also plays a significant role in Nagisa's androgynous character and Karma's menacing attitude.

In conclusion, I really encourage teenagers, young-adults and specially teachers to give it a try but I believe Assassination Classroom deserves to be among the greatest animated series ever made so regardless of your age or race, don't miss it!

I've watched a decent number of anime series, and this is easily one of i not the best one yet. It can be comedic yet dark and deep, which is hard to achieve.

This anime is very underrated. It's not exactly what you'd expect from a shonen anime, it takes you for a ride in the minds of junior high school kids who are responsible for saving the Earth while studying and learning to become better people. Everything in this anime is well thought out, very minimal amount of plot holes while still making it interesting. Great insight and explanation to some of the characters backstories, my biggest complaint is that some characters are far more developed than others (which is completely understandable, they're working with 28 students and 3 teachers here) 10/10, would recommend, the backstory itself is completely unique to almost everything you've almost seen in a shonen, it's funny and it teaches not only the students life lessons, but the watcher as well.

Such a great and genuine anime loved every minute of it

"Assassination Classroom" is like its protagonist: not without its flaws, but hard not to love. A fresh take on the tiresome 'unconventional teacher that changes the lives of his students' genre, this time with the students trying to kill their teacher.

The set-up is great: Class 3E, the losers of a prestigious high-school are assigned a new teacher by the secret service, namely a betentacled monster that has announced he will destroy the earth in one year, and has requested to teach 3E in the meantime. If the students succeed in killing their teacher before the year is over, they will be granted a lifetime amount of money. And rightly so, for Koro-sensei (as the monster is dubbed) can reach a movement speed of Mach 20, outdoing the world's joint military resources. Mankind's last hope is the students learning Koro-sensei's weaknesses in time, although they may learn a lot more doing so.

"Assassination Classroom"'s biggest asset is also its biggest strength: Koro-sensei. He is one of the most recognisable figures in anime; not only for his great design, but also his lovable personality. A caring and immaculate teacher, but also fussy, gluttonous and an incorrigible pervert.

The series' antagonists become as least as relatable. The demonic principal who created the school's authorial and ruthlessly hierarchic system, and his son, the #1 student who has the others in his pocket - both of whom want to keep 3E subjected - are intimidating in their own right, but their struggle amongst each other, the tyrannical parent who has never shown love, and the bitter son who wants to overthrow him, grant them a certain pathos. Near the end of the series their characters have nicely arched-out and become convincing humans, but not in an overstated way. The series does not ask us to love them, merely to understand them. The other antagonists are more one-dimensional, but then again, they are minor characters.

So far, the character building of "Assassination Classroom" is satisfying enough. The antagonists and deuteragonist (i.e. Koro-sensei) are very well developed. But there is one problem, a big one: the protagonists. Despite Koro-sensei's marketable image, the heart of the series lies with his students, and they are a mixed bag. The series revolves around their growth as students as well as human beings, but only marginally focusses on it. Of course it is difficult to keep up with twenty-eight students, and it would be harsh to demand all of them to have a breath-taking arc, but near the end of the first season, half of them hasn't even been characterized. Where attention is given, it is done well: Nagisa, Karma and Kaede (all provided with a unique hair colour for convenience's sake) have more to them than shows and become endearing characters, but for the rest of the students fairly little happens, besides the establishment of one character trait: 'the one guy who is a pervert,' 'the one guy who wears glasses,' 'the one guy with the mushroom hair.'

Fortunately, the series has a saving grace: It is funny - really funny.

Humour is always a bit of a risk in anime. Take the first half of "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood," for example, where throwaway jokes often undermine the drama. Not so in "Assassination Classroom," which manages to be touching as well as funny in a consistent way. At times it is even surprising how well the situations are handled. Two students pirating a rocket to rob the International Space Station should have been the series jumping the shark, but no: The presentation and explanation are so clear and appropriate, that it all remains convincing.

Even if "Assassination Classroom" does not have a whole lot of substance, and its ultimate goal - to show the development of Koro-sensei's students - is not wholly reached, its heart certainly is in the right place. The characters are lovable, the writing is funny, and the storytelling is adept enough to pull the whole act off. Indeed, the series is like Koro-sensei: The more time you spend together, the more undesirable departing becomes.

Just awesome nothing more or less..???? This anime will not only give you pleasure watching but also teaches life lessons throughout the episodes.. I'll highly recommend to watch. ????????????

When first watching we will laugh because of the humor of koro sensei but the longer we watch the story the longer it gets sad and makes the audience can cry repeatedly when koro sensei dies.

The premise of the show is very intriguing and i enjoyed it a lot the first couple episodes, but as the show goes on there are some really slow episodes in and it had trouble keeping my interest until the end of the 1st season. After a friend told me that there is a good conclusion at the end of it i kept on watching it but was sorely disappointed, i found the ending of season 1 really weird and anti-climatic, there was no real suspense. While the life lessons and deeper meaning through the shows are cool but ultimately very light philosophy attempts they fail to impress me. Character development is well done but the writing in general is average at best, there was no twist where i was like "oh wow".

I guess i just don't understand it, i will not continue watching through season 2.

The title is assassination classroom. It is a series of the action kind. It is a series Japanese the original language of this series is Japanese. There is 1 season composed of 22 episodes. This series speaks of the worst class of an American high school. They must kill their professor, an alien. If they do not kill him before the end of the year, he will destroy the earth.

This show is for edgelords and no one else. This is not a story that can be taken seriously. It's too goofy and the tone is a bit off. The dubstep, along with all the other music decisions are destracting and annoying. The characters are annoying. The visuals are ok, but the actual animation is pretty cheap and doesn't look that good. Overall this show is annoying. Maybe later on it gets good but with a start like this I doubt it.

This show pretends to be edgy but it's grossly cliche. The main character is so boring and not believable(I'm talking about the student not the teacher). They will try to convince you that some of the characters are both cold blooded characters who are born to be assassins but don't worry they are also somehow still well adjusted good human beings and the good people always win because they're good. Barf. There's so much more to complain about but I've already wasted enough of my time on this show. I just hope I save someone else's time by writing this.

I have no idea what the reviewers below were watching. Perhaps they are all 8-13 year olds... I dont know. But this is a very sad anime that goes no where and does nothing for at least the 1st 17 episodes. I gave up on it.

This anime is basically all about tropes and cheesy dialog between kids. Its the definition of generic. If you look up how to create generic characters and used them all in one show, you will have this anime. Each character is the most bland, soulless copy of a character you have seen before but the weakness of this show it does not focus on story so nothing ever develops and no one cares about any of the characters. They use a new character every episode as the teacher helps them overcome their weaknesses. In between they throw in a few action sequences and a big boobed blonde to hold your interest. This is how you know the show is garbage.

There is no story development in this show. Its just a mini coming of age story multiplied by the number of students in the class. Its not funny in the least.
