Classroom of the Elite (ようこそ実力至上主義の教室へ)

Hey, Kiriyama, doesn't it seem like Nagumo's been struggling lately?

I'd have thought he'd be running away with it by the time the late game started.

Top Group List Rank Year Group Name Points 1 3rd Nagumo Group 236 2 2nd Koenji Group 230 3 3rd Kiriyama Group 188 4 3rd Ochiai Group 167 5 3rd Mizoe Group 166 6 2nd Sakayanagi Group 161

But he keeps putting off dealing with Koenji, and now they're neck-and-neck.

No one expected Koenji to take this test seriously.

He went from completely off our radar to the biggest threat we face.

So, what do we do about it?

I'll activate all the groups Nagumo left me in charge of.

Are you serious? It's just one guy!

Koenji's our only real threat.

I'll take point on directing his takedown.

You?

Let me do it!

I've gotta get in Nagumo's good graces, too!

No.

Nagumo and I are the only ones capable of stopping Koenji.

Recognize that we're dealing with our ultimate enemy.

#14 The Extraordinary Prodigy

What's the situation?

He's fast asleep.

How about we surround him while he's still in his tent?

And if someone were to see us, how would we explain ourselves?

Don't forget, GPS searches aren't perfect, either.

As initially discussed, we'll make our move as Koenji starts his travel.

Let's go.

Is there some way I can help you?

We'd like you to remain in this spot for the day.

I have no idea who you are, but you must realize I won't agree to that.

I promise to make it worth your while.

You'll have a far easier time at school with

Student Council President Nagumo on your side.

I'm in quite a hurry, so I'll just be going now!

A-Are you kidding me?!

Stay calm, Mikitani.

How the hell can I be calm?! He just got away!

He'll have trouble participating in challenges if he's focused on evading us.

And if he does decide to try one, we can catch up to him there.

You're taking a nap right after you shake us off?

I guess you must be pretty exhausted.

But of course.

I'm just as human as you are.

Why not take the whole day off, then?

It's good advice from your senpai.

Take the day off? What a funny thing to say.

Do not think of me as an ordinary man.

My stamina is already perfectly recovered!

You've been running on all cylinders these last ten days.

Even with superhuman stamina like yours, you should be reaching your limit.

Sorry to disappoint, but I'm what's known as a short sleeper.

A short sleeper...

That's a serious problem if true.

What's it mean, Kiriyama?

A short sleeper is someone

who can maintain perfect health with fewer hours of sleep than most people.

In other words, he can fully recharge with only short breaks throughout the day.

If you don't mind, I'm on my way to the next designated area.

Hey, wait!

Enough. We'll change tactics.

We'll follow him and keep him out of challenges.

I'm the leader here. Respect the chain of command.

Koenji! Quit playing tough!

Goodness, it's noisy here.

Perhaps I'll have to up my pace!

You're kidding me!

Damn it. Go after him!

Wait. That's not up to you.

Shut up! I won't let him get away again!

Honestly...

The effort you're putting in is palpable.

Like we give a damn about appearances right now!

This is your last warning.

Save it for tomorrow if you prefer.

Just stay in place and don't do anything.

H-Hey, Nagumo said to hold him down for two days!

It's not wise to spend so long on Koenji.

The eve of the last day is two days from now.

We should focus on getting points of our own.

Then we'll set small teams to watch and harry him for those two days!

You think Koenji will let that happen?

You just have to do it right!

You think you can "do it right"?

Hell yeah, I can!

And I'm gonna want a ticket to Class A when I do!

You heard all that, right?

I want you to stay right here until the day after tomorrow.

I fear I can't agree to that, but what happens when I refuse?

We could have you expelled, for one.

I don't take orders from anyone.

I'll make sure you don't have a choice.

Goodness me. This is hardly a beautiful situation.

What'll you do, then?

The minute you try to push us out of the way, it's game on.

Is it really?

I'll be going now.

Ow! My arm! He broke my arm!

What disgusting behavior, Koenji.

You just crippled Moroka.

Looks like he took a flop to me.

Say what you want. You still pushed him!

I show no mercy to those who attempt to halt my advance.

And if we report this to the school?

Admitting to ganging up on a younger student...

Wouldn't that merely cement your disgrace?

Would you kindly allow me to leave now?

Entertaining your nonsense has put my arrival order reward at risk.

Sorry, but you're not going anywhere.

Ready to bare your fangs at me, then?

Time is money!

Just do it quickly.

You sure about this, Mikitani?

You're really gonna mess him up?

Yeah. If it comes to it, I'll take him down with me.

Let's go!

Damn it!

Damn it...

Damn it... Who the hell are you?

Wouldn't it have been easier to just shake us off?!

Your constant company has been a thorn in my side.

I see.

Break their spirits by demonstrating your overwhelming superiority.

I must be going now.

Damn it. Who the hell is that guy?

Is he even a high schooler?

There are times in life when you'll have to deal with

someone you didn't account for.

Just like Nagumo.

Hey... Are you gonna tell Nagumo that I failed?

Don't worry.

We knew from the start that Koenji was a rogue element.

But everyone has a weak point.

Koenji will be convinced that the third-years are no threat to him.

We'll use that against him.

Oh?

If it isn't Ayanokoji-kun!

You're looking better than I expected.

Everyone's been working really hard.

What about you? Are you taking care of yourself?

Yeah, I'm feeling fine for now.

I hope you'll be careful, though.

You could always get hurt and have to drop out.

Three days left, right?

It appears so.

Hey!

It's you, Ayanokoji!

Sorry to intrude on your class.

Nah, it's great to have you!

It's hard being the only guy around.

Test's over for the day.

Come camp out with us!

What a lovely idea!

Sounds fine to me.

Ayanokoji-kun's got that harmless vibe.

He really does!

Senpai.

Ayanokoji-senpai.

It's me, Nanase.

What brings you here at this hour?

I have something urgent to tell you.

It's about a major plan to force you to drop out of the test.

Seems like you were having a grand ol' time with Ayanokoji.

Anything to show for it?

No.

He proved to be beyond my ability.

So you skipped the feminine wiles and took him on face-to-face, huh?

"Feminine wiles"?

Forget it.

H-Hosen-kun...

I'm K-Katagiri of Class C.

Don't give a damn.

What's the matter?
