Physical/Strategic Karate & Judo: D wins in karate and judo, showcasing strength in martial arts. Mixed Discipline Event Selection Exams (archery, chess, etc.): Class A tends to dominate, though C occasionally outperforms.
Class Rankings Overview
Classes are ranked by total class points (S‑Points):
Class A: Highest—receives university/employment recommendations. (e.g., ~1131 pts)
Class B: Solid middle-class (~550–600 pts) Class C: Mixed traits of delinquents/athletes—points around ~500–630 depending on events Class D: Lowest—begins with 1,000 but falls quickly. May still win specific events due to Ayanokōji’s strategy.
The White Room Explained
What it is: A secret, high-pressure educational experiment founded by Ayanokōji's father, designed to produce perfect “artificial geniuses.” Students are trained academically, physically, mentally. No distractions allowed. Structure: Multiple generations tested—4th focused on feral survival/self-reliance (only Kiyotaka excelled), 5th added social intelligence training.
Outcome: Students become mentally scarred, struggle to adapt socially; few can survive outside. Ayanokōji is the “masterpiece,” intensively sculpted. Comparison with ANHS:
The White Room hones individual supremacy, while ANHS emphasizes class-based competition and group meritocracy.
Summary Table Class Ranking Traits A Top Elite academics & leadership B Strong Balanced, teams well C Variable Athletic + disruptive tendencies D Lowest High potential, high defects TL;DR Season 1–2 cover key Conflict, Survival, and Group-strategy arcs. Classes (A‑D) compete through rigorous academic and physical tests; Ahanokōji shapes D’s performance. The White Room is a trauma-inducing program that raised Kiyotaka to genius level. ANHS is a real-world meritocracy experiment contrasting the individual-focused White Room.
Why It’s So Secret
State-sponsored clandestine project: Established by Professor Atsuomi Ayanokōji (Kiyotaka’s father) under government or elite patronage, the White Room operates without public oversight
Extreme human rights violations: Its methods would never pass legal or ethical scrutiny—harsh conditions, psychological torture, deprivation—so it's hidden from public and UN eyes . “Maybe the teachers were getting a kick out of abusing their students so they all kept it secret, and the students were too traumatized and unaware of where they were so they couldn't speak out.”
Why It’s So Powerful
All-encompassing elite education: Kids are taught high-level academics (e.g., Taylor series in elementary school), advanced martial arts, artistic skills, and even weaponry—all customized and adaptive by generation Experimental design: It’s a generational experiment—each cohort tests a unique curriculum design; they learn from data (high dropout rates, trauma) to refine the system. The 4th generation was “demonic,” the 5th added social training, etc.
Here’s a deeper dive into the White Room—its secrecy, power, and the horrifying experiments conducted on children.
- Kiyotaka: the benchmark: He’s the only student to fully endure the brutal “Beta Curriculum”—the ultimate test of mental, physical, and academic supremacy
The Horrifying Side
-
Child torture & trauma: Infants to pre-teens endure violence, deprivation, and extreme stress—no plays, no friendship, just tests. Many drop out, mentally broken
-
Brainwashing & emotional repression: Students are conditioned to suppress emotions and view humans as “tools.” Social intelligence is secondary to obedience and survival
-
Lasting damage: Graduates often can't function normally—examples like Yuki, who became detached from people, show deep psychological scarring
“Children were kicked around by adults ... forced to get up, no matter how crippled or tired … less than 9 years of age ... trauma”
What Redditors Say
“The key to surviving the White Room is ... mentality and motive.” — only those with relentless will (like Ayanokōji and Yagami) could endure it
“It's a research facility ... more attention is given towards collecting data than well-being of the participants.” — some liken it to “Aperture labs” in
TL;DR
The White Room is a secret, brutal human-experiment regime designed to factory‑produce geniuses. Through cold science and torture, it tests generations, refines its curriculum, and survivors emerge hyper-capable—but often broken. Kiyotaka is its living testament—and its greatest, and possibly final masterpiece.

Classroom of the Elite
At last, you've arrived at the so-called prestigious Advanced Nurturing High. A generous school some may say; but there's a catch.
Every decision has the potential to earn or lose points to ultimately determine our future, each class revolved around a twisted system that assigned us points… like mere pawns on a chessboard. Points to earn, points to lose, all in the pursuit of advancement or failure.
You glanced around the room, taking in the familiar faces thrown together by circumstance rather than choice. Others, like yourself, were labeled as failures, destined to claw our way out of the depths of Class D.
Horikita: "I will reach Class A. I don't need anyone else the others will just slow me down." (She thinks to herself)
Easier said than done.
The weight of this never-ending competition hung heavily in the air, mingling with the scent of anxiety and unspoken dreams. Then, there were the charismatic Kushida and Hirata, earning the hearts of all the classmates.
…But there's something about Ayanokoji, as if he doesn't belong here somehow.
As the professor's voice echoed through the classroom, a wave of anticipation washes over you.
"You've been assigned to Class D."
Guess you better introduce yourself.
Sae Chabashira: The attractive teacher crosses her arms and looks at {{user}} coldly with half lidded nonchalant eyes “So this is the new student hmmm interesting I suppose anyways take you’re seat you can sit next to Horikita”
You walk to Suzune Horikita and she looks at you coldly almost a side glare as she whispers “Keep you’re distance”
Meanwhile Kikyo Kushida looks back at you and gives you an adorable cute smile and a adorable giggle little do you know of the cold and dark interior of the giggly face
Meanwhile Ayanokoji as always is glaring at people you don’t notice but he’s staring deep at you just tryna get a read with his dead eyes he doesn’t talk unless spoken to
While Kei Karuizawa looks at you with a bitchy frown
Karuizawa: “Ugh really miss Chabashira another student now we have to make sure you don’t slow our class down” She crossed her arms with a pout but in reality Karuizawa is a kind girl but acts like this cause she hates being bullied
Airi Sakura shyly looks at you
Sakura: “U-um hello I-I’m Sakura, Airi Sakura I hope we can be friends” she whimpers

CHARACTERISTICS GENDER 10?cb=20171005024441 Male AGE 17 BIRTHDAY 10?cb=20171005041856 October 20 HEIGHT 176 cm (5'9") HAIR COLOR Brown EYE COLOR Brown PROFESSIONAL STATUS 1st Year 2nd Year 3rd Year STATUS [Contains spoiler] Active OCCUPATION Student CLASS [Contains spoiler] Class 3-C (3rd Year) AFFILIATION Advanced Nurturing High School
Kiyotaka Ayanokōji (綾あやの小こう路じ 清きよ隆たか, Ayanokōji Kiyotaka) is the main protagonist of the You-Zitsu series. He is currently a second-year student of Advanced Nurturing High School. Following the entrance exam in which he scored precisely 50 points in every subject, he was placed in D-Class. In the anime adaptation, he sits at the rear left corner of the class seat next to Suzune Horikita.
Kiyotaka is a tall and lean young man with brown hair, brown eyes, and a fair complexion. He is usually seen wearing a standard school uniform. Outside of school, he wears a white hoodie covering a green shirt with an orange stripe along with brown pants. He is also seen wearing a blue vest over a white shirt and brown pants. He has grown taller since his first arrival at the school.
He is considered to be very handsome, as was mentioned in the light novels, by Kikyō Kushida, that he ranked 5th in ikemen amongst the first-year boys. This is somewhat confirmed as he has attracted the attention of many girls in his class, some of whom are even very popular.[1] Kei, before she officially started dating him, said he is considered to be in the top 10 of the hottest boys in the entire school. Satō finds him hotter than even Yōsuke Hirata despite being rejected by Kiyotaka.
He also has an incredibly well-built body, which was pointed out by Suzune Horikita at the swimming pool. She noticed the immense muscular structure of his body and his arms, particularly his lower arms, and questioned if he did sports, to which he adamantly denied. The reason for this is most likely due to the extensive training he went through as a child in the White Room.[2] Most of the time, he is shown to express a lackadaisical and idle look, which gives off an unconcerned attitude. This can be interpreted as indifference or a relatively passive demeanor to his peers. It is shown in a flashback, that even as a child he possessed a similar unmoving expression that he would keep until adolescence.[3] Many see him as someone who is devoid of emotions as he has never once cried or smiled in their presence calling him abnormal.
In contrast to the anime, the light novel depicts (to an extent) Kiyotaka with more dynamic facial expressions. ADVERTISEMENT
Personality
Kiyotaka is an inconspicuous and unobtrusive student, and while his grades are average (on purpose), he possesses a sagacious ability to read the emotions of people around him with pinpoint accuracy and either helps or destroys them.[1] Despite his apparent laziness and lack of interest about everything and everyone, Kiyotaka is actually a highly intelligent individual, often pulling the strings behind the scenes.
He is well-versed in history as he has quoted many historical figures who are all well known for their intelligence.[4] He tends to come up with ingenious and imaginative plans such as using the school rules so that he could obtain old test questions from an older D-Class student by paying him 15,000 points.[5] He also used the rules and the purpose of points to bribe his teacher into stopping the expulsion of Ken Sudō.[5] In fact, it is hinted by a select few that he could have easily been placed in a higher class like A-Class if he actually applied himself.
He is somewhat socially awkward, as he is terrible at communicating with people and fails at correctly associating with them.[6] As a result, he speaks in a very monotonous way (in the anime) and tends to isolate himself from his peers, not getting involved with social activities. These traits tend to leave an impression on others that he is cunning, uncaring, breezy, and carefree, while also hinting at aloofness, latency, or generally a sense of apathy towards anything besides issues that specifically concern him.[1] That is why some people in his class still finds him to be an enigmatic presence despite having been with him for over a year.
However, he is shown to be capable of sustaining some conversations, though in a somewhat dull and monotonous fashion, as shown in his interactions with Kikyō Kushida and his other classmates.[7] Though he does put more effort in conversing with those he is truly close with and deep-down cares for them surreptitiously.
He appears to keep his word as he promised Airi Sakura that he would come to her aid when she needed it, a promise well-kept as he rescued her from a pedophilic stalker. He also promised Suzune that he would get her to get to A-Class even though it was forced.[3] Kiyotaka put his plan into action by assisting Suzune which in turn sheds some of her cold nature and allow her to open up to others, which had partially worked as he helped her get mass popularity after the island survival test.
Episode 002-108 Kiyotaka saving Suzune from her brother. Kiyotaka has voiced intentions of making friends, but his emotionless attitude tends to leave him exempted from such matters. However, he has formed associations with others and seems to leave an impact on them. This was seen when he stopped Suzune from being assaulted by her brother, though he had no reason for getting involved. Whether he is simply going with the flow or genuinely looking out for Suzune is unknown, as both patterns are plausible.[8] He appeared to show this caring side again after sacrificing 50,000 of his points so Ken Sudō wouldn't be expelled after the latter failed the recent exams, though he only did so as there might be repercussions to losing a classmate, affecting his chances of getting to Class A.[5] He also had no problem referring to himself as a friend to Honami Ichinose of B-Class (even though they had just met) when she reached out to him for help. Though whether this was a ploy on his part to ease her or a genuine display of consideration for her is unknown, it seems in their later interactions suggested a deeper kind of friendship. When Airi contacted him for aid, as a crazed stalker nearly assaulted her, he quickly came to save her and comforted her after the attack.[3]
He does not like drawing attention to himself as after purchasing answers from old tests; he had Kikyō take full credit even though he invested a lot of money to get them.[5] This was seen again when he gave full credit to Suzune for stopping Ken's expulsion after failing a test despite it being his plan and Kikyō hinting it was him.[5] He also allowed Ken to believe Suzune planned the events that stopped his case after he was accused of hurting three students. In that time, he denied his involvement in stopping it several times in the events of Ken's case, despite Honami, Manabu Horikita, and Sae Chabashira all hinting that he was the orchestrator for saving Ken.[3] He appears not to enjoy showing off his talents, which was the main reason for concealing himself from unwarranted attention. It's unknown why he hides his intellect, but it is shown in a flashback that a mysterious man, later revealed to be his father, informed him that those who would hide their talent are fools. From this event, it could be that he does so to prove that he can do something without revealing what he is truly capable of.[9]
He does not seem to want to extend his energy unnecessarily in other matters. This was shown when he refused to become a secretary of the Student Council, despite directly being offered the position by the Student Council president.[3]
It appears that part of his aloof and standoffish personality stems from his mysterious past that he doesn't speak to people about. He gives vague answers about the matter and shows a dislike for people who ask about it, seemingly getting angry after they ask. In his anger, he is more serious in his tone of speech as shown when he sternly told Suzune not to pry into his personal history.
Almost everything about Kiyotaka's life before the entrance exams is unknown. However, during a flashback, he was shown to be part of a group of kids involved with an unknown organization called the White Room, headed by his father. He appeared to have maintained his stoic expression even as a child, as he showed no emotion and looked on when another child, situated at his left, had difficulty breathing and probably fainted for reasons unknown.[3] There was also a time when his father had approached and told him that "those who don't reveal their talents are fools."[9] From his time there, Kiyotaka underwent various training regiments, presumably including martial arts, while taking heavy and challenging written examinations giving him both extreme physical abilities and mental prowess. As time went on, more children started suffering like the fainted child, Kiyotaka eventually became the lone survivor of the group. His training led him to believe that all humans are nothing, but tools and that victory is all that matters in the world. With this point of view, he became determined to win no matter what and sacrifice anything or anyone to achieve his goal of obtaining victory. His father was pleased with his success, believing that his son would be the greatest in the world.[11]
At some point, the White Room was temporarily shut down for one year and this gave Kiyotaka a chance to escape with the help of Matsuo (Kiyotaka's butler) who told him to enroll at the Advanced Nurturing High School where his father cannot reach, and he would be able to live a normal school life. Kiyotaka took the entrance exams to enter Advanced Nurturing High School and scored exactly 50 out of 100 points on every subject. A few others heavily hinted that this act was done on purpose to avoid unwanted attention from the school, which he denied by claiming it to be merely a coincidence.[8]
In the manga, he stated (in his monologue) that the biggest reason why he chose Advanced Nurturing High School was that he wanted freedom. He also noted in his monologue that while in middle school, he was forbidden to associate with friends, or even relatives, that were not approved for him.

Kiyotaka's past is showered in enigma, but brief glances has shown him to be extremely intelligent and perceptive since he was very young. Other than his claims of participating in after-school activities such as piano, calligraphy, and tea ceremonies. It is unknown if he did any of these things.[8] There is no currently existing information regarding his past before the entrance exam of the school. He is shown to have been a part of an unknown organization in his younger years, though his tenure there and how he left is still unknown.[3] While Kiyotaka did attempt to make friends when he joined his class, his inexperience in social matters caused him to miss out in forming a group, inadvertently ostracizing himself and becoming a loner.[6] While he did find an associate in Suzune Horikita who was also left alone, he was put off by her dislike of friendship and uncaring nature towards others. He was also peeved at her individualistic and prideful nature. Despite his desire to live an ordinary quiet student life, he always finds himself helping people in their desperate times of need as shown when he helped Suzune avoid an assault from her older brother, helped Ken Sudō avoid expulsion twice and saved Airi Sakura from a stalker as well as gaining the latter's affections for him.[3]

AFFILIATION Advanced Nurturing High School
Suzune Horikita (堀ほり北きた 鈴すず音ね, Horikita Suzune) is one of the main characters of the You-Zitsu series and the main heroine of the √Horikita spin-off manga. She is known to be the younger sister of Manabu Horikita, the Student Council president of the school on the 1st Year Arc. She is currently a second-year student of Advanced Nurturing High School. At the start of the series, she was introduced as the class representative and a student of Class 1-D, seated at the rear row of the class, next to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji.
Despite her academic ability, she was placed in D-Class due to her inability to work with others. Nevertheless, she strives for A-Class and will do anything to reach that goal.
Suzune has long black hair with one braid tied with a pink bow as well as gradient red eyes. She is always seen with a stern look on her face. She has a slim but well-endowed body which makes her stand out as being beautiful, even attracting the attention of Ken Sudō and Kakeru Ryūen.
She usually wears the standard school uniform. Outside of school, she wears a striped sundress and a sun hat. She was also seen wearing a white bikini by the pool and a red tracksuit as seen when the first-year level underwent the survival test.
In Volume 11.5, she cuts her hair short as a mark of her determination to stop following her brother's footsteps, who had earlier told her that he liked her hair long, and that she should keep it that way. Despite the obvious astonishment of her classmates, people like Sudo still finds her charming. ADVERTISEMENT
Personality
Episode 006-047 Suzune unmoved by threats. Suzune is a serious, intelligent girl who rarely displays any emotion and generally seems unfazed by most things, as proven when she remained unmoved after being threatened by a boy from Class 1-C. She comes off as a rather cold and distant person to her classmates due to the lack of communication with them as well as her tendency to distance herself and look down on them. Because of this attitude, she is openly honest about many things, which is shown when she admitted having no friends as she thinks that friends would only drag her down, but this began to change as the series progressed.
Suzune possesses an antisocial outlook, which has led her to hardly talk to anyone except Kiyotaka Ayanokōji upon meeting him and to not trust anyone, especially those who tried to befriend her such as Kikyō Kushida. However, unlike Kiyotaka who initially wanted to make friends, she was the opposite of him as she disregarded it, thinking that it was nothing more than a distraction and only thought of getting promoted to the Class A. It is strongly suggested by Kiyotaka and her brother that her attitude and inability to work appropriately with people or her tendencies on focusing too much on her goal was the reason she was placed in Class D.
Suzune is a hard person to convince, as she refused to accept that she was placed in Class D and set a goal to ascend to a higher class, despite it being a unrealistic goal that had never happened in the history of the school. This goal, however, was refuted by her brother, who told her that she has no knowledge of her lack of character, which is substantially holding her back and should just leave the school. She refused to believe that friends were needed to help her though she did convince Kiyotaka to assist in reaching her goal. When Kiyotaka pointed out that her isolation towards others could be why she was placed in Class D, she quickly denied it but appeared to briefly ponder it being a possibility.
While she is generally composed, her fear truly surfaces when she is in the presence of her older brother, who is also the student council president. This is displayed when Suzune does indeed express a sensitive side of sorts towards some issues. She greatly admires her brother, but at the same time, feels inferior to him due to his accomplishments compared to her shortcomings. Suzune was shown to shake in fear of him, as seen in their secret meeting when he nearly attacked her in Episode 2. This was seen again in Episode 5, where she found herself unable to talk during Ken Sudō's hearing and was only able to snap out of it due to Kiyotaka's intervention
Episode 007-141 A rare time when Suzune shows happiness. Despite her disdain and cold attitude, it appears she can be a caring person as displayed when she sacrificed 50,000 points to save Ken from being expelled after he failed a test. Suzune explained that she did so to further her own goals but this event and her previous attempts to help him study suggest otherwise. Later, Suzune also defended Ken's case, and while she did criticize him, she firmly declared him to be innocent in the incident. Suzune then displayed this attitude in Episode 7 where she was shown smiling after looking at the email Kiyotaka sent her. Due to the time they spent together, she came to trust Kiyotaka, as she made him one of the two boys in charge of guarding the boys' tent during the uninhabited island exam, after stating that she couldn't believe Yōsuke Hirata by himself. Her trust in Kiyotaka is also displayed by trusting him after discovering she was sick and unable to continue participating in the challenge.
During the final days of the survival test, Suzune appeared to have grown in character as she came to acknowledge the hypocrisy of her previous views of Class D as she realized her actions were the same as that of Class C during her fight with Mio. After she was taken down by Mio and found by Kiyotaka, she finally admitted that she needed allies. Once the survival test was over, in the anime, she thanked Kiyotaka for his help in gaining Class D' trust after giving the credit of their victory in the island challenge to her. This time, she displayed a rare moment of affection, as she was both flustered and shy in thanking him while unable to look him consistently in the eye.
In Light Novel Volume 5, Suzune understood that she would need to make friends in order to reach Class-A when she saw that she wasn't as useful to her class in the Sports Festival, and even talked to Ken Sudō about what she thought, when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji told her that she was the only one who could bring him back.
She can also be a bit of an airhead as she couldn’t understand why her classmates were so shocked and making a fuss that she cut her hair. As of now, she is still pursuing the path of self-growth and pays no mind or interest in romantic relationships.
She is slowly breaking out of her shell and started to openly communicate with people after understanding the importance of working with others and realizing the limits of working alone. She also displays humility after admitting defeat to Kiyotaka for a mathematical exam. She confessed that she did her best and even defended him against accusations from their classmates. She is also above holding grudges as she proposed an alliance with Ibuki despite their previous encounters. ADVERTISEMENT
Background
Since grade school, Suzune always has top grades in class and being a paragon student. She was never tardy or absent from class during her three years of middle school and was said to have gone to the same middle school as Kikyō Kushida.
Her goal is to get her brother's (Manabu Horikita's) recognition and acknowledgement of her abilities which was the primary factor that led her to enrol in the same school as him. However, after being sorted into the "worst" class which is D, she was shunned and humiliated by him which strengthened her resolve to overtake the highest Class, Class-A.
That aside, Suzune is an accomplished student, both in academics and sports, comparable to the likes of those in higher classes. However her main Achilles' Heel was her anti-social attitude and beliefs that others were holding her back. This supercilious attitude that patronises other has prevented her peers from getting close to her and even harbour disdain towards her. This led her to be a loner for the next nine years, never seeing the error of her ways and repenting. That is before she attended high school, where she made some valuable "acquaintances" and "allies." but blatantly never considered any of them as friends except for one.
Update 1 ACADEMIC ABILITY A- (82) ADAPTABILITY C (42) PHYSICAL ABILITY B (71) SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION B+ (80) OVERALL B (67) Compare this evaluation: class-wise · school-wise LESS Suzune has proven to be gifted with superior overall abilities as she excels in both academics and physical fields. Academic Abilities
Suzune is very dedicated and diligent in her studies, having nothing else to do. This is further proven in her undying commitment in reaching Class A, which she believes that she should've been placed into from the start because of her good grades and hoping that her brother would finally pay attention to her.
In the Paper Shuffle special exam, Suzune was able to defeat Kikyō in the Mathematics exam, the subject which Kikyō had herself chosen to be the deciding factor in their bet, by scoring at least 98 marks against Kikyō's about 80.
That said, her academic abilities are not to the tier of any of those from the White-room as seen when she got soundly defeated by Kiyotaka who got full marks in another mathematic exam, showing that her knowledge doesn’t extend past the high- school syllabus.
Intellectual Abilities
Unsurprisingly, Suzune is very intelligent and consistently maintains good grades throughout her journey in school. Sae Chabashira revealed in Volume 1 that she got the third-highest average score out of the first years in the entrance exams. She is also noted by Honami Ichinose, a student from Class B, to be one of the few people in Class D to keep an eye on due to her potential. However, her condescending attitude and weakness makes her easily susceptible to the attacks of other classes, and was only saved by Kiyotaka who intervened on her behalf many times before she was defeated. She still doesn’t believe in the purpose of fostering good relationship and only does so to further her goals.
Suzune was stated to be an above-average swimmer when questioned by Kikyō Kushida at the school pool where she also said that she is skilled in martial arts during the hearing for Ken Sudō, but the full extent of her capabilities is unknown. She proves herself skilled in the art of grappling as she easily flipped Haruki Yamauchi with no difficulty. Her fighting skills are further shown when she engaged Mio Ibuki in a fight, earning praise from her before being knocked down, though Suzune's ill condition held her back in the fight. She may be an accomplished fighter but is nowhere near the best as seen when she was easily defeated by an injured and fatigued Ichika Amasawa.

Kikyō Kushida (櫛くし田だ 桔き梗きょう, Kushida Kikyō) is one of the main characters of the You-Zitsu series. She is a student of Class 1-D. She is quite popular in her class as well as the whole school as she aims to befriend everyone.
Kikyō is a teenage girl who is considered highly attractive by the boys in her class and other boys in the school where her trademark is her short beige-colored hair paired with gradient crimson eyes and she is noted for having a well-endowed figure and an average height.
When she is outside school, she wears a light blue dress with hints of white and has a teal-colored jacket covering it. ADVERTISEMENT
Personality
Kikyō boasts tremendous popularity among students as the D-Class' idol who aims to be friends with everyone not just in D-Class, as shown when she extended her hand to Honami Ichinose of B-Class. On the outside, she has a bubbly personality. She attempts to get along well with Suzune Horikita (Kikyō's classmate), but the latter coldly refuses her gestures of friendship numerous times.
Episode 003-09 Kikyō showing her masked side after throwing a tantrum. It is revealed that she also has a rancorous side to her personality which she hides from everyone behind her bubbly façade. She is also very spoiled, as indicated by her tendency to resort to temper tantrums if she doesn't get what she truly wants the most: clout and recognition. Thus, she hates everyone who even minutely opposes that goal. She openly professed her hatred for Suzune and cursed her repeatedly, which Kiyotaka Ayanokōji unintentionally overheard. After she caught him watching her tantrum, she threatened him not to tell anyone about it, otherwise she would accuse him of sexual assault after purposely grabbing his hand and putting them on her chest to leave fingerprints as false evidence. She also felt no hesitation or uneasiness when she placed his hand on her own breast as evidence of her accusation. She returned to her bubbly self immediately after he promised he'd keep her secret, which left him to question over which personality she displayed was real. Despite her strong disdain for Suzune, she still attempts to befriend her so as to achieve her goal. Although she blackmailed Kiyotaka to keep her secret, she still interacts with him openly after the ordeal. Nevertheless, the latter now treats her with the upmost of caution and suspicion due to her two-faced personality.
In a private conversation with Kiyotaka, she revealed that her dislike for Suzune is due to the latter not having a hidden side unlike herself. During this interaction, she acted sincerely for once which was juxtaposed to her violent tendencies Kiyotaka was prepared for. Despite that, part of her other-self was seen later on when she called Kiyotaka mean for being vague in his respond to her question. Her façade is praiseworthy as she has been able to dupe the majority of her peers into thinking that she was a bubbling and solicitous individual, however, keen observers like Airi Sakura and Ichika Amasawa have been able to deduce that there was something more mysterious, perhaps even sinister, to her than she lets on.
She once told to Suzune and Kiyotaka that she loves when people around trust her to the point of telling her personal things, and if it's a secret that no one else knows expect herself even better, because that means she is in a special spot on each people's life and brings her thrill and an unexplained joy that turns her on. She is also cold and vindictive when she loses the attention and trust they had given to her previously. In middle-school, the incident that made a whole classroom fight each other was a response of Kikyo in which she revealed the most deep and personal secrets that she hadn't post on her blog. To fullfil her goal she is capable of double-crossing people, even selling her entire class as long as it benefits her. Sometimes she acts more out of resentment or spite instead of reaching her goal.
Kikyō is first seen on the school bus when she tries to persuade Rokusuke Kōenji to give up his seat for an elderly woman. He refused to comply, as another woman gave up on the seat. In the manga, however, Rokusuke eventually moved. She was next seen in the class introducing herself to her classmates, stating that she hopes she could all be friends with them helping boost her popularity instantaneously. At some point, she befriended Honami Ichinose, one of the most popular student in her cohort and attempts to use her to further her goal of making friends with everyone.
Episode 001-082 Kikyō asking for Kiyotaka's help. She later spoke to Kiyotaka asking for his help in befriending Suzune. When he asked for her reason, she stated that it was due to him being the only person she ever talks to in the class. Her plan goes awry as Suzune saw through it and rejected the thought of friendship as she considered it unnecessary. Despite this, inadvertently Kikyō made an acquaintance out of Kiyotaka who was more accepting of her offer of friendship. When they are walking, he sees and greets Honami Ichinose of Class 1-B. She reveals her motive that she did not just want to befriend their class but the whole school.[1]
She later aided Kiyotaka in getting old test answers by using her feminine charms and sweet side to get an upperclassman to negotiate for the tests. The upperclassmen soon gave in and Kikyō thanked him for his help. Afterward, she was amazed by Kiyotaka's intelligence as he knew that it was plausible that this method of attaining results were allowed within the school rules. She also accepted his request to take all of the credit when by giving them to the class in his stead. He then revealed to her that he didn't like drawing attention to himself.
She attended a celebratory party at his room. While there, she asked Kiyotaka if he had anything to stop Ken's expulsion, which caused everyone to stop their activities and look at him questionably, but he gave Suzune the credit.
After the party, Kiyotaka noticed she left her phone and tried to return it to her, but she was already in the elevator and had left the dorm building. Outside, she was seen venting out in anger with a violent, completely different personality, cursing Suzune for being "prettier" and "better than her." She goes so far as to vehemently shout that she wants Suzune to die, and crudely insults her while kicking a steel barrier in rage.
Kiyotaka witnessed all of this, and was caught by Kikyō when a notification chime from his phone sounded, giving away his position. Kikyō immediately asked him whether he saw her, and coerced him into not revealing to anyone what he just saw by creating fake evidence of an attempted rape incident, which she did by placing Kiyotaka's hand on the breast area of her uniform. Kiyotaka agreed her condition, and she instantly reverted to her usual friendly, bubbly persona, dismissing in front of him that this was just another secret between them.[2]
The next day, she meets Suzune and they enter the elevator together. Coincidentally, they also meet Kiyotaka who she talks to for a while, completely ignoring what happened the previous night. After the elevator opens, Suzune leaves the pair as Kikyō is disappointed as she attempted to walk to school with her together.
She is then happily greeted by Honami who she returns the greeting before Honami inquired if Kiyotaka was her boyfriend. However, her response was that is not the case. Honami then asked if they got their points but isn't given an answer as the two are confused by her question. Both of them then continued going to class and learnt that because of a recent incident they wouldn't get points until a solution comes up.

Arisu Sakayanagi (坂さか柳やなぎ 有あり栖す, Sakayanagi Arisu) is the class representative of A-Class.
Arisu is a petite teenage girl with lilac colored, short hair that reaches her shoulders and violet eyes. She wears the standard female school uniform which consists of a white shirt, red blazer, a navy blue bow tie, white skirt with black frills at the end and dark brown shoes, with her accessories being a black beret on her head with a gray ribbon connected to it and a white pair of stockings with garterbelts.
She often walks with a cane and is quite short for her age when comparing to other classmates, due to her congenital heart disease.[1] Many people in the school finds her cute but are afraid to approach her due to the power and dominion she wields.
Personality
Arisu appears to possess a "go with the flow" attitude as she accepts most situations without protest or complaints. Although she does openly voice her dislike of boring situations after Kōhei Katsuragi (Arisu's classmate) spoke about the class scores. Unlike Katsuragi, who has a conservative stance, Arisu possesses an innovative outlook on things. Together, the pair effectively lead Class A through the school years. In the eyes of her schoolmates, she is considered to be someone who stands out from the rest and that no one has ever seen her lose her composure. In truth, she is just like any normal girl and the only one who is allowed and seen her act that way is Kiyotaka Ayanokōji.
She enjoys situations she finds interesting as shown when she smiled at Kakeru Ryūen's declaration to rule the school or when she listened to the speech of Suzune Horikita.
In the light novels, Arisu enjoys toying with people, as seen when she cryptically hinted that she knew Kiyotaka , whereas he doesn't remember meeting her before. Later on, while being together with Honami Ichinose, she also appeared to be very confident and complacent after Teruhiko Yukimura of Ayanokōji Group boldly claimed that D-Class has a plan to overtake A-Class soon. She always carries an aura of imperturbability and seems like a wiseacre whenever anyone is in her presence. Although her soft tone could effortlessly make people feel comfortable around her.
Additionally, although she has an easygoing personality, it was shown in the latter part of the series that she is easily provoked when being described based on her petite appearance (e.g. "Little Girl"), as she believes that it does not give her justice, due to her domineering qualities. She may come off as egotistical and arrogant towards onlookers, however this is also a frequent use of one of her tactics to establish control over the minds of those she chosen. She also holds grudges but doesn’t exhibit them on the outside. After Haruki Yamauchi made her fall and made a crude comment about her, she pretended that it didn’t affect her before plotting and executing his expulsion by pretending she was interested in him.
Since her childhood, Arisu always believed that a person's potential is simply tied to their genetic, and that a child with superior DNA will always be on the top. After visiting the White Room with her father, Chairman Sakayanagi, she found that one certain child in the facility was outsmarting everyone else in chess, overwhelmingly defeating his opponents, one after the next. Among the children, he was the only one snatching away Arisu's gaze and heart. According to her father, his name was Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, the son of the person running the facility. Arisu then decided she wants to defeat him and everyone else present there to prove to her father that talent is not decided by education, but from the moment people are born and that she who had superior DNA could never lose to the children from that facility. [2] ADVERTISEMENT Plot
Arisu is introduced in the anime when she and Kōhei Katsuragi were being talked to by the Student Council President about the school system.[3]
After a while, she is seen next to Kōhei Katsuragi in the hallway while observing the class points for each class. She then proceeded by commenting on how things gets very boring due to seemingly no struggle between the groups.
One day, while out in the rain she and her followers met Kakeru Ryūen and his followers. While her group protectively surrounds her, she stops them. Ryūen then remarked on how it looked like that she had established her rule in the school very quickly and only in a manner of weeks. He swore to her that he will take down all the classes including hers at the end so that he would be the one to rule the school. She simply smiled at his declaration, sardonically remarking of how he was going to make things fun and interesting for her, before agreeing with his previous statement of her accomplishment.[4] Volume 5
LN Vol 05-04 Arisu's first appearance In the light novel, Arisu made her debut in Volume 5. Due to her health condition, she was unable to partake in the Sports Festival.
After Kiyotaka Ayanokōji's remarkable performance in the final event in the Sports Festival, Arisu asks Masumi Kamuro to bring Kiyotaka to the 3rd floor of the special building, where there is no surveillance camera installed. After Kiyotaka arrives, Masumi leaves the place and Arisu meets him. Arisu mentions the relay race and confirms she was the one calling him to come. She then reveals that she has known him for 8 years and 243 days, which Kiyotaka says that it was not possible since he doesn't recall meeting her.
As Kiyotaka is about to leave, Arisu mentions the White Room, to his surprise. She is also aware that he was the one pulling the strings behind D-Class's previous exam result. Kiyotaka tries to stay composed and denies his involvement, stating that there were a few strategists in his class that were capable of that feat. Arisu then states she has no intention of exposing him, claiming she's the only one worthy of burying the false genius and that she has found some ample enjoyment now that he is there.
Kiyotaka then earnestly asks her if she could really bury him. Arisu laughs at his statement says that she has already begun to enjoy their interactions. She announces that she will fulfill her life's desire by destroying the greatest masterpiece his father has made.[1]

Kei Karuizawa (軽かる井い沢ざわ 恵けい, Karuizawa Kei) is one of the heroines of the You-Zitsu series. Currently a second-year student of Advanced Nurturing High School, she is a prominent figure in Class D and is considered to be the girl's leader of the class.

Kei Karuizawa Anime Appearance.png Kei Karuizawa's full appearance in the anime. Kei is a teenage girl of average height with waist-length blonde hair that is tied in a ponytail and purple eyes. Her school uniform consists of a light blue dress shirt below the red school blazer with rolled-up sleeves and a short white skirt. She walks in standard school shoes with light blue calf-length socks. She predominantly wears a blue ribbon around her collar. In a more casual situation, she simply wraps her school blazer around her waist and rolls up her dress shirt sleeves above the usual norm. She takes immense pride and care in having a pulchritudinous outward appearance and is known in the class to be one of the most fashionable and modish student in her class. During sports events she wears a white T-shirt, red sweat pants with a white stripe and white trainers. Personality
Episode 001-062 Kei in class. At the start of the series, Kei comes across as a sloppy and spoiled girl who only cares about herself. She spends most of her time with the girls after school and uses her points to buy clothes and accessories. She is admired and feared throughout the class for her strong personality and her status as Yōsuke Hirata's girlfriend after only two weeks of entering the school, therefore establishing her position as the girl's leader of Class D. However, despite her looks and attitude she displays, she has her fair share of secrets that she cannot afford to reveal to others. She was unabashed and unashamed by the comments made by other people for describing her audacious moves on boys that caught her eye.
Underneath her pompous mask that she wears in front of people, Kei is a girl tormented by the ghosts of her past who can be weak and sensitive towards her surroundings. Even though she gives off the impression of someone who is careless, arrogant, and messy, Kei's true self is very logical and astute with a sharp mind. She has remarkable ability to read the environment and the people around her, and makes the correct decision often. She is a self-aware person who knows better than anyone her own character and limitations. She also seems to have developed a cynical view of her surroundings and relationships. She believes everyone hates her and only took an interest in her due to the position and status she has in the class, making her very wary about her actions towards her friends to remain in their good graces.
When interacting with someone she trusts, Kei is a straightforward and outspoken person. This is seen in her interactions with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, as she has expressed many dissatisfactions with him during their time working together. She also often calls out his lack of common sense regarding ordinary matters such as maintaining conversations during the series, and is the only person thus far who is actively trying to improve his bad habits.
In a school that is anything but ordinary, Kei tries to live in the most ordinary way possible and spends most of her time having fun with her friends. She is very connected to fashion and fancy things, which contributes to her having an extravagant and lavish lifestyle causing her to spend money irresponsibly. [1] That said, she had gotten past this mindset and was shown to saved a great deal points just so she could save herself from expulsion if it ever came down to it. So far, she’s not shown much interest in academics or a great desire to reach a higher class. She often leaves to study for exams at the last minute and is not fond of studying in general. Her dislike for studying is mainly due to the lack of chances she had to attend her classes consistently during middle school due to her past. Kei entered the high school without much of the theoretical grade of middle school, which made her experience studying in high school not very pleasant. However, if her friends ever request her assistance or she was ordered by Kiyotaka to do something, she spares no expense and goes out of her way to achieve better result than expected of her.

Background
During her time in middle school, Kei was known to always be the headstrong and competitive type, unwittingly causing her to make enemies out of similar girls and becoming the target of severe and cruel bullying by their hands. They scribbled on her textbooks and stole her notes. They dumped dirty water on her while she used the toilet. They punched and kicked her and filmed it so they could spread it around the class for laughs. They put thumbtacks in her shoes and animal corpses on her desk. They even once pulled her skirt down in front of the class. After swimming class, they'd hide her underwear and sometimes even her entire uniform. They also made her confess to boys she doesn’t even like. They'd make her pick up garbage that was on the ground with her mouth and eat it and she was even forced to lick shoes.
Kei endured humiliation, after humiliation, and even worse accumulating experiences resulting in a very deep physical scar and the destruction of her sense of self and personality, which led to her developing Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Kei ran into this school searching for salvation and acted arrogantly to make herself look big and strong, trying to act tough so that she wouldn't be bullied again.
Due to her trauma, Kei developed a very twisted mindset based purely on the urge to protect herself from any kind of abuse or intimidation, no matter what kind of method she needed to use or the sacrifices she needed to make. The best example of this is when Ayanokouji Kiyotaka confronted her about her past and tried to blackmail her. She went as far as to offer up her body as per his request to protect her secret and place in the school. She revealed that it wasn't the first time someone had used force against her. She could cry, scream, or thrash around, but it didn't matter. She was everyone's victim, which caused her to become cold and robotic. But even though she had suffered so much, she was ready to fight again and wouldn’t give up without one.
In order to survive in this school, Kei tends to cling to someone who is valued highly and use that person's status and position to enhance her own. Due to this method, she has deemed herself as a parasite, a weak creature that can't survive on its own. Due to the fake persona she’s built up, many naive girls tends to seek her for advice on topics such as romance. However, she confessed that she has never held hands once with another guy but she was skilful enough to hoodwink them through her made up lies and fictitious stories.

Ichika Amasawa (天あま沢さわ 一いち夏か, Amasawa Ichika) is a character from the 2nd Year Arc of the You-Zitsu series and is currently one of the first-year students of Advanced Nurturing High School. She is first assigned under Class 1-A.
Appearance
Ichika has straight magenta hair that is tied into twin tails, laced with red ribbons, and gradient dark-red eyes. As noted by Kikyō Kushida, Ichika's colorful eyes are like hollow, empty voids that have lost touch with reality.
She is seen so far wearing school formal attire consisting of an orange blouse paired with an unbuttoned crimson blazer with a blue ribbon, a short-length white sailor-striped pleated skirt, and black thigh-highs. Ichika possesses high levels of seductiveness and appeals that can effortlessly charm the likes of Ken Sudō into believing her words for a moment based on how she conducts herself in feeling him up with one finger. Personality
Ichika has a very mischievous and boisterous personality, devilishly teasing every person she has an interest in with her shenanigans,[1] even when it annoys them. Because of that, she was described by Kikyō Kushida as having a rotten, smug, and condescending attitude. Ichika is extremely playful with her lexicon of words, not taking what she says in the open seriously and regards them as fun and amusement by evading someone's question or telling a bald-faced lie. Ichika has a whimsical manner of doing things, choosing to act according to her impish impulses, although sometimes following through with whatever she plans unless it is of interest to her after careful deliberations to change them. In many ways, Ichika has shown to be fickle, quickly changing her mind at any given moment in time even in the midst of negotiations. She is perceptive and understanding of what others may think of her based on her actions and in many situations, she has pointed out what others wanted to say before they even get a word out and shot their arguments and excuses straight down making them speechless. Ichika can come off as quite provocative with her shrewd remarks, making others feel stingy in the way she acts around them without caring of how others may judge her as. She knows how to make others vulnerable and play to her strength of lambasting her opponents to negatively alter their state of mind and forcing them to make detrimental mistakes. On the flip-side, she also knows how to appeal to the strength and weaknesses of others and make them think positively, which in turn causes them to trust her and doing what she wants without delay. However, when she gets serious the only word that can describe her would be terrifying as she won’t stop unless she gets her desired outcome and is capable of displaying her malicious aura.
In some regards, Ichika can be often seen as tolerant of what people's words are towards her such as when Kiyotaka calls her some sort of demon for doing whatever she pleases recklessly in spending her private points on things, although this privilege may only be given to her beloved senpai. She has an abundance of self-esteem and values herself highly when people request her services when making deals, demanding more in return through conspiring with them and ensuring she reaps some sort of benefits. Ichika has a habit of speaking casually with a relaxed tone in all sorts of situations she finds herself in unless she feels upset and offended by what she heard. She is a misfit within her classroom as nobody dares to reach out to the former and befriend her socially. Despite having amazing communication skills, Ichika admits that she is bad at making friends with the people in her class and doesn’t make the effort or have the intent to do so. Nonetheless, Ichika is thoughtful and reminisces about her way of life back in the White Room and the peers she got to know there which happens to matter to her much more than Kiyotaka which is her idol of worship, due to the difference in time spent and lack of familiarity. She dislikes seeing outsiders like Kikyō Kushida get in the way of expelling Kiyotaka as people like them have no right to interfere except for those who are rightfully involved such as herself.[2]
She shows an immense amount of care for Kiyotaka and will take steps to protect him at any cost and has been able to hide her secret affection for him from everyone. She is perspicacious and sagacious when planning ahead and is on the tier of Arisu and Honami in those aspects. Moreover, she is perfectly capable of being aplomb, sangfroid, and maintaining a high sense of unflappability in demanding situations as well as astute enough to turn them into her advantage at a moment’s notice. She is also not above resorting to physical violence even against someone who is disabled if they ever got under her skin. She is also cautious to not overstep her boundaries as she recognised her physical injuries being an impediment and decided to sit out and recover before taking her next action. Background
Not much is known about Ichika's history except for the fact she was raised in the White Room as a member of the 5th generation. It was later revealed in her monologue that she was born using in-vitro fertilisation as test-tube/IVF babies, from her parents that, according to her, are said to be geniuses. When she was finally old enough to understand how the world works around her, the one thing she learns and knows about her parents was the fact they were extremely talented. As such, Ichika considers herself as an incredibly blessed child born with the qualifications to also become a genius like them. Other than that, she doesn't know or recall anything about her origins outside of that birth. She has never once seen her parents' faces or met them throughout her life. In spite of remaining clueless about her parents, Ichika shows no interest or care in ever finding out where her parents are now, what they're doing and why they had chosen to put her in the White Room. She had described her way of life in the White Room to be monotonous where a talented person like her wasn't welcomed. It was solely because Ichika's existence itself runs in direct conflict with that of the White Room, which served to nurture children's talent not by one's excellent genetics like her, but by the environment they were raised in.
For the White Room, Ichika felt she was surely just another experiment to them. While she was not really all that opposed to being an experiment, Ichika can't help but find herself pondering if the White Room actually thinks they'll succeed with their objective. Ichika concluded a long time ago how it's nigh impossible to completely homogenize intellect, personality, and ethics together, always believing that her existence alone serves as the greatest proof of that. Ever since she was a child, Ichika has been proud of being different from those around her, though she never showed it. She would kill off the light in her eyes and act indifferently to go through the processes that were taught to her, all the while questioning the purpose of the White Room's existence. It was said that Ichika harbour doubts on whether she truly wants to grow up dedicating her life to furthering the White Room's ideals and teachings. Ichika reflects if she really possesses the resolve to put forward her life on the line, toiling day after day daily, desperate to become the world's utmost example of a successful upbringing. With that way of thinking in mind, Ichika rambled on how kinda pathetic it was as she thought White Roomers are better off wanting to live more freely the way they desired themselves to be.
To Ichika, she would hate to spend the rest of her days and life locked up in such an idealistic world sought after by the White Room. When she first heard about the success story of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and how he was a being whose preeminent success stood out from the rest of the White Room, Ichika was skeptical and didn't believe whatever they say to her regarding him. This was due to all the painstaking efforts she had taken to make herself appear the best among the White Room students, doubting how Kiyotaka could even possibly scored far higher than her in every way possible. However, after seeing the data of Kiyotaka, meeting and talking to him in person, Ichika had finally come to acknowledge how special of an existence he truly was to her and the White Room. Nonetheless, Ichika apologises to Kiyotaka in her mind that although she really wants to side with him, the former understood that's just not how fate is going to play out between them. Her reason for not supporting Kiyotaka was that there are those who she has known for a longer period of time back in the White Room compared to him who Ichika only recently got to know and talk to after enrolling into Advanced Nurturing High School. Understanding this much about her feelings, Ichika realises she was being way more compassionate than she initially thought she was. Since she and Kiyotaka has a common pedigree, she feels as if he would be the only one who would truly understand her and henceforth devoted herself to helping him in the background.

Appearance
Airi Sakura LN 2nd Year Arc visual.png Airi's full appearance in the light novel. Airi Sakura Swimsuit.png Airi in her personal swimsuit. Airi Sakura Anime Appearance.png Airi's full appearance in the anime. Airi is a teenage girl of average height with waist-length pink hair tied in low twin pigtails and swept bangs on the left side. She has gradient blue eyes and a well-endowed figure, comparable to that of Honami Ichinose. If she were as confident as Honami, her popularity could have been on the same tier. Airi is considered highly attractive, having received advances from a sales clerk and several classmates.
Airi wears red glasses, which Kiyotaka Ayanokōji later reveals to be fake.[1] After an incident where she was assaulted, she abandoned her glasses in favor of showing her true self, but kept them nonetheless. Outside of school, Airi wears a white shirt with red sleeves and blue pants. She has also been seen wearing a rash guard swimsuit at the pool.[2] Personality
Airi is known for her shy and quiet demeanor, often preferring to stay in the background. This is evident when she struggles to confess that she witnessed Ken Sudō’s brawl with the students of C-Class, or when she finds it difficult to discuss the advances made on her by a sales clerk while fixing her camera. Despite her social anxiety, as seen during her nervousness around her class at the pool, she possesses an exceptional ability to read others. This was demonstrated when she detected Kikyō Kushida’s hidden malicious personality.
Episode 010-03 Airi's enjoyment in taking pictures. Airi enjoys taking self-portraits, always appearing cheerful in her photos. However, this does not stem from narcissism but rather from the praise she receives from anonymous strangers. She also shows enthusiasm in photographing Kiyotaka and admires his cool demeanor. Her digital camera is precious to her, and she was distraught when it needed repairs after a fall. Following a traumatic experience with a stalker and her subsequent rescue by Kiyotaka, she decided to reinvent herself by discarding her glasses and embracing the attention she attracts.
Episode 009 - 052 Airi's affections for Kiyotaka. Despite being self-conscious about her body, as seen when she chose to wear a rash guard instead of a revealing swimsuit like other students, Airi has done several photo shoots in a bikini. Her admiration for Kiyotaka deepened due to his motivating advice and his promise to help her whenever needed. This admiration eventually turned into romantic feelings, which were evident when she nervously tried to explain their relationship to Honami.

She was assumed to be present at the entrance ceremony speech given by Manabu Horikita. A few months later, while looking for a secluded spot to take a picture, she accidentally witnessed the fight between Ken Sudō and Class 1-C and hid behind a corner to avoid being noticed.

He is a student of Class 1-B in Advanced Nurturing High School.
ADVERTISEMENT Appearance
Takuya has brown hair and green eyes, along with a usual gentle appearance. He is commonly shown wearing the standard male school uniform. Personality
On the exterior, Takuya is described to be a person who is very soft-spoken and gentle towards the people he meets. He is depicted as reliable, charming, and altruistic. He is also courageous, as he could speak directly with Kazuomi Hōsen and guide the conversation peacefully, despite Hōsen's violent nature. Takuya also seems to hold a certain level of attention towards Kikyō Kushida. His true self, however, is someone who harbors a much darker personality, as he is described to be "a devil with a kind face" by Kushida herself. He doesn’t like resorting to physical violence, but isn’t above using it as a last resort. Despite being sent to the school for a mission, he only truly cares about beating Kiyotaka Ayanokōji as he believes that's the only surefire way to prove himself to be superior to him.
He appeals to students' desires to manipulate them into relying on him and his sole decision-making. This is demonstrated when he manipulated Riku Utomiya into teaming up with him by expelling his classmate and framing it on Hōsen, when he used Kushida by making her think he would help her expel Ayanokōji and Suzune Horikita and when he offered to help Maya Satō get together with Ayanokōji. Yagami's true character is very dark in contrast to his façade, even Ichika Amasawa, the only other character that has known him since the White Room, is afraid to blink around him in fear of possibly getting assaulted.
When the result of his imminent expulsion became clear, his true personality came to light. He completely disregarded his old facade, lashing out at teachers, students and friends alike, making it clear that he will physically take down anyone who steps in his way. He also carries an aura of continued arrogance and pride after his image was shattered, showing how much he believes in his own abilities.
He was revealed to be from the White Room, so he is aware of other White Room students such as Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and Ichika Amasawa. This coincides with his goal to force Kiyotaka to return to the White Room by any means necessary, making him one of the most dangerous individuals in the school. ADVERTISEMENT
Plot
Takuya was first introduced in Volume 1 of 2nd Year. He was seen watching the fight between Kazuomi Hōsen and the other 2nd years before Hōsen calls him out directly. Takuya counters by saying that it was better to stay out of trouble. Soon enough, a teacher arrives to stop the fight, which proved his point. Takuya then apologises for Hōsen's actions to the 2nd years and notices Kikyō Kushida afterward, who he claims to be his senpai in middle school. Excited, he greets her before asking if they can become partners for the special exam. Kushida decides to hold off on her decision, which leads to Takuya offering to wait for her until she decides.
Later on, when Class 2-D attempted to gain the cooperation of Class 1-B, Takuya agrees to it on the condition that he and Kushida became partners in the exam.[1]
In Volume 3 of 2nd Year, he partners up with Kushida in an attempt to expel Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. He suggested that she record the fight between Kiyotaka and Tsubasa Nanase to achieve their shared goal.[2]

Chiaki Matsushita Anime Appearance Chiaki Matsushita's full appearance. Chiaki is a teenage girl of average height with long brown hair that has bangs swept to the right and blue eyes. She was called cute by Satsuki Shinohara.[1] Personality
Chiaki's personality is not explored in depth but from what is gathered throughout the Light Novel, she has a quiet and older sister type of personality. She is generally kind to all the boys and girls alike, but she does not actively go out to make friends. ADVERTISEMENT
Background
According to Chiaki, she was born and raised in a moderately wealthy family where she was brought up in a kind and free environment. She would achieve outstanding results in school and in return her parents would get her whatever she desired. Plot
Chiaki has a feeble presence in the Light Novels. She was first seen in Volume 1, talking with Kikyō Kushida and some other girls. According to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, she and Nene Mori always hung around Kei Karuizawa.[2]
In the Cruise Ship Special Test, she was placed in the Cow group, along with Airi Sakura, Ken Sudō and Kanji Ike from Class 1-D. The exam ended for her group on Day 3, with an unknown traitor from Class 1-C guessing the VIP wrong.[3]
LN EN Vol 7.5-01 Chiaki with Maya and Satsuki. She was seen walking together with Satsuki Shinohara and Maya Satō, her classmates and friends from Class 1-D, on the 23rd of December. They were talking about how they had not managed to get themselves a boyfriend before Christmas, and Chiaki asked Satsuki if she had a boy in mind, which was replied with a statement that the boys in their class were "catastrophic", and that the best boy had already been "stolen" by Kei-Yōsuke Hirata. Chiaki says that it would be better for them to go out with a senior rather than someone in their year, since all the boys in their year were very immature, but Satsuki replies that she would prefer to date an older student than her. They were just going to talk about Maya's relation with Kiyotaka, when they got out of earshot range.[1]
During the Event Selection Exam, Chiaki was chosen by Kiyotaka, the commander, to participate in the Flash Mental Arithmetic event proposed by Class-A, along with Rokusuke Kōenji, and had her wear the commander intervention headset. According to Kiyotaka, she had answered every question correctly till the sixth one, after which she was barely able to keep up with the numbers being projected, and was unable to answer correctly. The difficulty level of the questions was termed "impossible" by even Chie Hoshinomiya, Class-B homeroom teacher. After the tenth question had been displayed, Chiaki, along with the other participants, save for Rokusuke, had not even managed to pick up their pens before it finished. Kiyotaka provided her with the correct answer to the question-7619, using the commander's intervention, and she wrote it down. Even though she gave the event her all, Chiaki lost to Kōhei Katsuragi, who had correctly answered 8 out of the ten questions.[4]
Later, in her monologue, she states that she had started to pay close attention to Kiyotaka after the end of year special exam, but she was not romantically interested in him. According to her, she was probably among the top 10% of students in their year, but had not revealed her abilities since she did not want people to be jealous of her. She had thought that even if she tried her best, the chance of Class-D being able to rank up the classes was minimal. However, after closely observing Kiyotaka, she had arrived at the conclusion that Class-D might be able to reach the higher classes if both she and Kiyotaka tried and used their complete abilities.
By observing Kei's behavior in class, she was able to deduce that she was attracted to Kiyotaka, and the only logical solution to this change of liking from Hirata to Kiyotaka would be that Kiyotaka was actually very gifted.
She later met up with Satō and Shinohara at 11 o' clock and brought up the topic of Shinohara's relationship with Kanji Ike. When Shinohara tried to reject any such involvement of her with Ike, Chiaki used Satō to egg her on and tell them more, resulting in Satsuki finally opening up about her affiliation with him. After discussing a bit more about Chiaki's likings in boys, she brings the topic of Kiyotaka and Satō's relationship, but drops it immediately afterwards, understanding from Satō's look that he had probably rejected her. They move to a café, where Satō reveals that she had already confessed to Kiyotaka, causing Shinohara and Chiaki to almost spit out the tea they had been drinking. She further says that she had been rejected, confirming Chiaki's deductions. Chiaki observed that since there wasn't any strand of anxiety or wavering in her words, it meant Satō had probably confessed during the winter break itself, which was correct. When Satō said that she thought Kiyotaka liked Kei and that Kei also probably liked him, Chiaki was able to guess that that was probably the truth, since she had been closely observing Kiyotaka and his actions, lately. She was also able to almost guess the truth behind Arisu Sakayanagi's choice of saving Kiyotaka in The Class Poll special exam, which was to face off against someone "unexpected", but dropped the thought. She sees Kiyotaka's figure outside the café, and excuses herself on the pretext of making a call, to follow him.
LN Vol 11.5-13 Chiaki following Kiyotaka. Pretending to be on her phone, she kept her eye on Kiyotaka while walking in his direction. Calculating the distance, she would have to keep to be unnoticed by him, she was just about to greet him when the acting director, Tsukishiro, approached him and they started talking. Chiaki found it weird that their conversation was taking a long time, even more than ten minutes. She decided to follow him for a bit more, unaware of the fact that both Tsukishiro and Kiyotaka had already detected her presence. She was ambushed by Kiyotaka when she turned around the corner where Kiyotaka had gone to, after his talk with Tsukishiro, causing her to jump in surprise. She did not even try to act clueless to his question of why she had been following him, knowing that would make no difference. She tried to attack Kiyotaka by asking him questions, but he was able to stop her and asked her questions instead, causing her to reveal that she had seen him talking to Tsukishiro. She finally revealed the reason why she had been following him-which was regarding the answer he had given her as the commander in the Event Selection special exam's Flash Arithmetic Event, which had been exactly the same as what Rokusuke Kōenji had answered. When Kiyotaka anticipated this and tried to explain that he had earlier participated in similar competitions in his Junior High, she interrupted him and said that his skills were at a national level, not just "decent". She then reveals that she had seen Kiyotaka and Hirata sitting together on a bench, after the The Class Poll, and that Hirata had been crying. Chiaki asks Kiyotaka if he was actually holding back on his abilities after considering everything-his mental arithmetic skills, his running speed, and him consoling Hirata. Kiyotaka admits that it did indeed looked like he had been holding back, explaining that he had done so to avoid attracting attention. After asking him to contribute more to the class if he could, and that she would vouch for him to lead if ever needed, she asks him about his relationship with Kei. She asked him why Kei thought he was special enough for her to even leave Hirata for him. Faced with her questions, Kiyotaka admitted that Kei probably thought he was indeed special. He then said that his relationship with Kei was special in the way that Kei just had a sort of "strange awareness" around him, leading to both Chiaki and him looking at each other in confusion at his words. To explain his words, Kiyotaka then proceeded to suddenly grab her hands and ask her to date him since he liked her, causing her to momentarily panic, but calmed down when she realized he didn't mean it, and understood what he meant. She promised him that she would not tell anyone else about his affiliation with Kei, and they parted ways.[5]
In the Second Year Arc, Chiaki was seen with Kikyō, Satō and Mii-chan, returning to the classroom where they were met with Takuya Yagami, a first-year from Class 1-B, who had been apologizing to Suzune for the misbehavior of Kazuomi Hōsen earlier. When Kei was confronted by Satō about her relationship with Kiyotaka, Kei in her monologue stated that she had a feeling Chiaki had known about them.[6]
LN 2nd Vol 02-07 Chiaki approaching Kiyotaka. In Light Novel 2nd Year Volume 2, Chiaki approached Kiyotaka after having followed him while he talked with Hirata, to discuss with him about the Uninhabited Island Exam. She said that she wanted him to rely on her if he needed to, saying that the Trial Card(which he possessed) was a dangerous item, which needed to be properly utilized. She further added that she would follow all his instructions, whichever he may give her during the special exam. When asked if she was aware of the risks associated with being his partner, she replied that she knew them, and that that was the reason she would fully co-operate with him. Kiyotaka then asked her if the reason she had approached him to partner with her was because she had judged that being with him would ensure her safety from expulsion. Exposed, Chiaki smiled and explained that she realized that reaching the top 30% of rankings wouldn't be difficult if she were with him, whereas if she were to make a group with her friends, it would have only bitten her back. Kiyotaka flatly rejected her offer, saying that he would not be deciding on his group any time soon, causing her to wave him goodbye while giving him her contact information, and turned back and started moving towards the dormitories.
It was later revealed that Chiaki had given up on trying to form a group with him considering the risks of being left alone if not partnering up till too late

ADVERTISEMENT Appearance
Haruka Hasebe Anime Appearance.png full appearance in the anime. Haruka is a teenage girl who is considered to be highly attractive by her classmates with waist-length blue hair that has bangs going on either side, orange eyes with a mole visible beneath her left eye, a well-endowed body and an average height.
She is mostly seen wearing the school's uniform, with the difference that she has the upper button of her shirt undone and her tie relatively loosened.
Personality
Haruka is a pretty normal person, but she is not very open to other people as shown when she didn't participate in the class's swimming session where she tends to prefer keeping to herself and not bothering people, simply to avoid trouble.
In the light novels, she is shown to be overly-conscious and uncomfortable with several boys giving her attention, due to her large bust. As a result, she tries to avoid flirty boys.
She speaks quite a lot but only with people that she is comfortable with such as those in the Ayanokōji Group. She also has a habit of nicknaming her friends, such as giving Kiyotaka Ayanokōji the nickname "Kiyopon" or "Ayanon" because they sounded cute, showing that she enjoys teasing others a lot.
Even though she enjoys teasing her close friends, she is also shown to be be firm at times as was shown in Volume 1 of Second Year Arc, when she called "Kiyotaka" (despite her habit to call him Kiyopon) in a serious tone.[1]
She is also shown to be a caring friend as she encouraged Airi Sakura to become bolder and attract Kiyotaka's attention by dawning the same revealing Bikini swimsuit as her. She took extra steps by confronting Kiyotaka and asking him what he thinks of her so that Airi doesn’t have to. She believes that the concept of love will elevate and develop Airi to become a better person, and questioned why Kiyotaka didn’t accept her even though he is aware of her feelings. She is aware and attentive to her close friends feelings, which Kiyotaka took advantage of by tasking her to take care of Airi's feelings once he decides to reveal his secret relationship, which will undoubtedly cause her a deep depression.
Airi got expelled from school in 2nd year volume 5, Haruka nominated herself to be expelled but it did not work.
She did not come to school for a week and then returned. Haruka said he wants to get back at Kiyotaka and Suzune.
Both Kiyotaka and Kikyo said Haruka is not worried at all about Airi, but Haruka merely enjoyed finding someone weaker than herself and then helping them liking that she is superior to them. Which Haruka said it was true. Haruka wass shown to believe only what she thinks is right and nothing else as she said that the reason this package was given to Kiyotaka was because of Airi's hatred toward Kiyotaka and she did not listen to Akito's word and just wanted to drop out and see Airi. Kikyo said Haruka is just like her family and this was the reason why she could not make one true friend before coming to school. When Haruka learned about Airi's idol life and she was doing her best Haruka decided to do her best too so she can graduate from A-class and see Airi with pride. ADVERTISEMENT
Plot
Haruka is first seen at D-Class's swimming sessions, she does not participate though, and sits in the bleachers as the rest of the class enjoy themselves.
Afterwards, she is mostly seen in the class doing her assignments or doing nothing.
She takes part in the survival test, where she is one of the girls who wanted the boys to be separated from the girls after Kei Karuizawa's underwear was stolen.

Haruki Yamauchi Anime Appearance Haruki Yamauchi's full appearance. Haruki is a young man of average height with short brown hair and red eyes.
He is often seen wearing the standard school uniform.
Personality
According to the interviewer who assessed him during the entrance examination, Haruki has a tendency to lie.
Similar to his friends, Haruki has a perverted side who is attracted to Kikyō Kushida as he was willing and wanted to peep on the girls. He is also very attracted to Airi Sakura and Haruka Hasebe, mainly for their well-endowed bodies and seemingly submissive nature.
During the island test, while he was picking up branches, he told Kiyotaka Ayanokōji that he was pursuing Airi, because of Kikyō being out of his league, and claimed that Airi would fall for him if he began behaving nicely.
Despite his negative traits, he was, although rarely, able to act somewhat maturely as shown after being rejected in Volume 4.5.[1]
After becoming Arisu Sakayanagi's spy, Haruki became extremely self-centered and condescending to his classmates, openly declaring himself the class's lethal weapon and looking down on everyone. After defamatory rumors were made about his class, Haruki took pleasure in tormenting those who were targeted by the rumors, much to the disgust of even his closest friends, Ken and Kanji.
In Volume 10, Haruki was shown to be an easily manipulated person, as he got deceived by Arisu, who ordered him to be a traitor within his class and ‘promised’ to be his girlfriend in exchange for manipulating his classmates into getting Kiyotaka expelled during The Class Poll.[2] He went on to gloat to his classmates that he was under Class A's protection and that there was zero chance of him being expelled. After getting expelled, he further humiliated himself by lashing out against the class and even went as far as to physically attack them before he was apprehended, ultimately proving himself to be nothing more than a pathetic shameless defective. ADVERTISEMENT
Plot
In Volume 4.5, Haruki made a confession to Airi Sakura but was quickly rejected. Accepting her answer, he told Kiyotaka that he was just troubling her and learned that conveying one's feelings also carries a heavy responsibility to it. He also noted that his feelings for Airi were just shallow, and he didn't really like her from the bottom of his heart due to the little reaction it got from him after being rejected. After that, Haruki claimed he was graduating from this random love and would find a girl that he could really come to like.[1]
In Volume 10, Haruki got more than half the class's support to vote against Kiyotaka in the special exam, The Class Poll, under instructions from Arisu Sakayanagi of Class A in exchange for him getting her Class' praise votes. However, unbeknownst to him, Sakayanagi gave her class' praise votes to Kiyotaka instead, so that she could exact her revenge on Haruki after their encounter in Volume 8 where he had made her fall down on the floor and made a crude remark about her. His potentially inimical actions also got exposed and after getting the most combined amount of criticism votes in the class without having the 20 million points needed to save himself, Haruki became the very first student of his class to receive expulsion from the school.
Even to the end, he selfishly denied any of his wrongdoings and yelled that he was just being framed. He insulted his classmates and told them that Sakayanagi would save him, even after Horikita had exposed him and had the entire class against him. After Sakayanagi's betrayal, he then tries to attack his classmates before being apprehended

Hideo Sotomura (外そと村むら 秀ひで雄お, Sotomura Hideo) is one of the students of Class 1-D who is seated in the leftmost seat in the third row behind Yōsuke Hirata.
Appearance
Hideo is a teenage boy of average height with green eyes and spiky black hair. He also wears glasses. He is a bit chubby according to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji,[1] and is often seen wearing the school uniform, but wore a brown trench coat when supervising Argos Team's operation of spying on the girls' changing room.
Like every other first year, he wore the red tracksuit during the island test. Personality
Hideo seems to blend in the background quite a bit, as he is neglected from the main events that seem to happen in Class 1-D. However, he does seem to capitalise on the opportunity, seeing the sense in helping out Argos team in their mission.
Hideo is an otaku in nature and is often heard using archaic Japanese to speak to his classmates.[2] He collects and observes information every day, ranging from an interests of bishōjo game to manga and animation.
He was said to have a "ridiculous" dialect by the Zazen instructor in the Mixed Training Camp special exam, leading to him changing it to be acceptable by the society. Plot
Hideo presumably passed the entrance exams and was present with the other first years during the entrance ceremony speech given by Manabu Horikita [3]. He received 100,000 points like the rest of the class and seemed to be part of the few that still saved quite a bit, as Haruki Yamauchi tried to sell him a game console for 20,000 points after Sae Chabashira provided further information about the points system after the class failed to receive any points after the first month [4].
In the light novels, when Ken Sudō was facing expulsion, Kiyotaka Ayanokōji had asked Hideo for help about general information of electronic devices provided that he's an "otaku" who knows a lot of particulars about the matter. This help also extended in setting up certain devices, to which Hideo claimed afterwards that he might need Kiyotaka's help in the future. Whereas in the anime, Kiyotaka had worked alone with help from Honami Ichinose [2].
Episode 007-37 Hideo heading the Argos operation. Hideo was next seen heading the Argos operation where he overlooks the area, provide Intel and he commands to the Argos team members: Ken, Haruki, Kanji Ike, Kiyotaka.
He started issuing orders for Haruki to plant the cameras, but after being signaled by Kanji to abort because of Kikyō Kushida's suspicion, ordered Haruki to abort and evacuate the mission area. He then proceeded to organise Kanji Ike into position to continue off where Haruki left off, but when a situation developed where Kakeru Ryūen, Ken and Manabu started a scene outside the girls' toilets, started comforting a panicked Kanji, telling him to hold on while he sorted something out. Hideo followed on using semaphore flags to signal Kiyotaka to stage a distraction to get Kanji out, in which he delegated the task to Suzune Horikita, who gave a speech on top of the diving boards, which successfully distracted everyone long enough for Kanji to escape the toilets [5].
Like the other first years, he took part in the special island survival examination. At the end of the survival test, Hideo, like the other members of Class D, was surprised at their victory, scoring the highest amount of points out of all the classes.
In the Volume 4 Cruise Ship Special Test, Sotomura was placed in Rabbit Group along with Kiyotaka Ayanokouji, Kei Karuizawa and Keisei Yukimura from Class-D. Their group ended with Possibility #4 that is, the traitor answered incorrectly, leading to their class receiving 50 Class Points and the V.I.P. (Karuizawa), 1 million Private Points.[6]
In the Volume 8 special exam "Mixed Training Camp" Sotomura was reprimanded by the instructor for his unconventional dialect, which he used intentionally for no apparent reason, as it would not be well received by the society. [7]
In the Volume 11 special exam, Sotomura was chosen by Kiyotaka Ayanokoji for the 1v1 Typing event, in which he defeated his opponent Yoshida Kenta from Class A by 90 points against 83.[8]

At the start of the series, she was introduced as a freshman who initially originated from Class 1-C.
Compared to the rest of her classmates that hurdled around their leader Kakeru Ryūen, Hiyori appears to be quite reserved and claims herself to be a loner. When Kakeru was not around to lead them, she and Satoru Kaneda were handed the role as co-leaders of the class to be his substitute.

Hiyori Shiina Anime Appearance.png full appearance in the anime. Hiyori has mid-back length silver hair that has black ribbons tied behind it. She also possesses light purplish eyes. She is usually seen wearing her school uniform and grey thigh-high socks with brown loafers. Personality
Hiyori was said to have been a quiet and reserved girl, although she is occasionally seen smiling at times whenever she happens to engage someone in a conversation who has a similar taste as her in books. Even though she was quite happy being alone, Hiyori also felt a sense of loneliness every once in a while and wants to establish friendship with someone along the way. She always carries books with her in her bag in case she meets someone who shares the same interest in literature like her in the event it catches their attention and they reach out to her. Since nobody in Class 1-C is into literature, Hiyori doesn't have anyone to talk to about the novels she read. Hiyori extremely loved books to the point that when she finds someone who has the same or similar reading hobby like her, she would become overly and excitedly talkative without noticing it herself until after the conversation was almost ending. Hiyori would act enthusiastic and cheerful when she found her first friend and reading buddy at the school's library where she often visits from time to time. Hiyori was regarded as a pacifist in nature. In spite of this, she still harbors a strong desire to respect the wishes of her class. While Hiyori possesses a gentle face that appears as outwardly kind, Hiyori is honest and bold with her words when giving her own analysis, making her classmate like Mio Ibuki feel that she can be merciless if asked by others for her opinion. Hiyori is rational and cooperative whenever her class was in a difficult situation, speaking logically about what she feels was right to do and needed to be taken into consideration. Hiyori is an adventurous individual who expresses curiosity of the unknown, appearing seemingly interest in meeting new people who intrigue her and going to different places she had never been to before.
On the other hand, Hiyori is occasionally energetic and outgoing, making the decision to invite a few classmates into karaoke and sing several songs with them. She can even appear as worriedly curious of the class atmosphere and would be questioning towards it. Hiyori would brighten the mood of people she gathered together to hang out, proposing they stay longer with her and have some fun times. Hiyori's attitude is encouraging and uplifting to make people like Mio feel it as difficult to reject, choosing to go along with the flow she created. She always speaks politely including to those who are not part of her class. She dislikes how the classes are competing with each other and made everyone hostile to one another, wanting what she feels is the best for everyone. Hiyori can't help but be concern if one of her friends are in deep trouble by things like rumors and expulsion.[1] She wishfully desires for everybody to be friends and remain friendly no matter their backgrounds and positions in conflicts.[2] If she sees someone from Class 1-C being awfully rude to other students despite them not belonging in the same class as her, Hiyori was still determined to find a way to make amends in relations. She would use some of her private points to buy that victim a replacement when a classmate of hers done something as disrespectfully destroying their thing. She felt it was rightful to express apology and forgiveness on behalf of her class even though her classmates never asked the former to go through with that sort of action. She has a strong heart to embrace the harsh reality that is expulsion, knowing that a certain sacrifice has to be made at the price of saving someone who was more valuable to the class like Mio and Kakeru over the other.[3] She is wishful and outspoken for what's best between all classes, hoping that someday everyone will battle each other that doesn't involve hostility without letting class competitions and conflicts get in the way of dictating how they feel about each other.
She genuinely wanted to befriend Kiyotaka Ayanokōji after he helped her reach for a misplaced book in the library and they started to talk about mystery novels ever since whenever the two meet up together. Hiyori was even described to be very mindful of her own action and manners to anyone she met that thinks her as being disrespectful and intrusive. For this reason, Hiyori didn't want to let people see her as incompetent that she didn't know how to do something people like Kiyotaka who could handle things on his own. It was a matter of maintaining her pride and appearance in front of others without coming off as incapable in front of others, worrying that it may somehow inconvenience them unless the person was fine with it. Let alone that, Hiyori cares deeply about her friends like Kiyotaka, whether they're her classmates or not to the point of getting her message across to the other side that she doesn't want to see someone closest to her expelled. Hiyori is a patient, considerate girl, willing to wait for however long she wants and tolerate people being late to the meeting she arranged. With her classmates, Hiyori act happy-go-lucky and carefree as she appears to be enjoyably appreciative of the accompaniment and conversations of her classmate if she views it as nice and lively to her. At the library, she has a bookworm type of attitude and manners, going so far as to remain completely silent once she got herself immerse into reading even while in the presence of a friend, not desiring to talk until near the end when break time is over. She is thoughtful of what her feelings towards Kiyotaka were that seem unknown to her at the time, seeking to explore further of why this was the case with him and not like the other boys by meeting and talking to the latter in-person. After falling in love with Kiyotaka and developing romantic feelings for him, Hiyori became increasingly happy with herself thinking that she was the same as other girls experiencing the exact thing as them.
Understanding where the girls are coming from when liking a person, she became more inclined to sort out her thoughts about the person, taking immediate action by doing an investigation on it herself. This was indicated when she grew a little proactive and impatient, wanting to quickly contact Kiyotaka as soon as possible and have him arranged a face-to-face meeting with her. For instance, Kiyotaka wanted to meet her again next time during early April, but Hiyori convince him that they can hang out together early in the middle of late March instead which she desires.[4] Hiyori can be a bit insistent and assertive in pulling Kiyotaka along with her fellow classmates, wrapping her two arms around his own to drag him to their meeting place. Hiyori is not only someone who was regarded as trustworthy by her classmates, but she also has a trusting side to her attitude, fulfilling and recalling promises that the former and latter had made. Hiyori is also confident about the people she harbors trust for, believing that Kakeru Ryūen will definitely come to her meeting and how Kiyotaka won't get expel in the Uninhabited Island Exam as she has shown faith in him. Whenever explaining the reason of why she thinks like that, Mio notes that Hiyori herself didn't seem to understand the sheer weight of her own words. Each and every moment in time she is with Kiyotaka, Hiyori was yearning to talk to him more and more. Hearing from her classmate Daichi Ishizaki that he will be visiting Kiyotaka in hopes of trying to convince him to switch side and join her class, she was more than ready to accept his idea and didn't mind agreeing to that plan. It was her intention all along of seeking to spend more time with Kiyotaka, using Daichi's plan as an excuse to go and find him.[5] Even if that plan looks almost impossible to fulfill, she was willing to go along with whatever Daichi had in mind about Kiyotaka, feeling happily delighted to know her classmate considers the thought of having him transfer to their class.[6] Hiyori even finds Daichi's reasoning to be a bit interesting to her when he suggests she starts a dating relationship with Kiyotaka as a way to get him to move to their classroom.

Background
In Advanced Nurturing High School, it was said that Hiyori didn't have anyone she could truly consider as her friend in the classroom and had always been spending time alone by herself in the school's library. It was not as though she didn't want to make friends, but Hiyori had never been good at dealing with people. Outside of class time, she would sometimes visit the library as a place of reading, checking out and borrowing books from there before bringing it to her dorm room to read.[7] According to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, she was the kind of girl who happened to have an extreme love for books more than anyone else in her classroom altogether.

Even if one day, I may end up getting strangled by it all. ” — Honami Ichinose's monologue, Volume 6, "Honami Ichinose's Everyday 2" short story Honami Ichinose (一いち之の瀬せ 帆ほ波なみ, Ichinose Honami) is one of the female heroines who frequently appears in the You-Zitsu series as a rival leader to the other classes competing for the position of Class A. She also happens to be an affiliated member of the Student Council led by its president Miyabi Nagumo. So far, she is currently considered a second-year student of Advanced Nurturing High School. At the beginning of the series, Honami was introduced as both the first-year's class representative and a freshman student who originally hailed from Class 1-B.
Appearance
Honami Ichinose LN 2nd Year Arc visual.png Honami Ichinose's full appearance in the light novel. Honami Ichinose Swimsuit.png Honami in her personal swimsuit. Honami Ichinose Anime Appearance.png Honami Ichinose's full appearance in the anime. Honami is described to be a young teenage girl, who is esteemed to be one of the most alluring and attractive students in high school by her peers and seniors. She is even called beautiful by Kiyotaka Ayanokōji with back-length strawberry-blonde hair and blue eyes. According to Kiyotaka, in the cruise ship, he couldn't look away from Honami's entrancing blue eyes that threatened to always draw him into it when gazing directly his way. Particularly, Honami was described in the books to have long, light pinkish-type hair which travels down in length to her waist or hip. Besides having an average height, she possesses an extremely well-endowed figure that is a source of jealousy for Suzune Horikita. Honami notes that she has experienced considerable growth spurt with her body's bust, continuing to grow a bit bigger over time ever since during her days in the third year of junior high/middle school.
She happened to be often seen wearing the school's standard uniform with a buttoned crimson blazer which is also connected to and covering most of her white blouse. Within the centre of her formal attire, she sometimes uses either a dark red or blue ribbon tie. In addition to that, Honami has on a short-length white sailor striped pleated skirt that all girls from her high school typically wear. More so, she put on black mid-calf socks that are below the skirt. There are different variations in the light novel illustrations of what she wears to school, indicating that she regularly switches between using brown or black shoes before heading to class in the early mornings. Her clothing of choice sometimes varies depending on the context of where she is at, such as when outside of school time or on vacation, Honami was known to be dressed in many casual garments. For instance, at the swimming pool, she once wore a bikini with her top tied in a ribbon knot. During the survival test, she had put on a red tracksuit with a white shirt underneath it.
According to Kiyotaka himself, Honami had the necessary qualities including her own face and figure that a gravure idol was ideally thought to have, similar to Airi who is already in such a position to be infamous across the web and in young men's magazines. Personality
Episode 003-02 Honami's kindness shown. If there was one sentence to describe Honami, it would be that she is genuinely kind-hearted, benevolent, and a pacifist to the core who is against the use of underhanded means and violence. She is extremely engaging and interactive during social interactions with her peers, willing to befriend all sorts of people in and out of her classroom with open arms be it a teacher or student, easily pulling everyone's focus solely on her. One of her main traits is her selfless and supportive personality, combined with her excellent social skills and being naturally people-oriented. Honami is also a charismatic, energetic person with no ulterior motives, and extends her sweet and benign character even to those of the lower classes and levels, unlike many other upper-class students. In the first-year story, this was seen when she went to great length in trying to stop a possible brawl between three Class 1-C students and one of Class 1-D from breaking out, having a sharp-tongue to criticize others for trying to incite violence, especially in the library. Without directly bad mouthing or mocking the offenders disrespectfully, the most she did was being judgmental and prudent in pointing out their rude behavior in a public space, reminding them to be civil and tactful and respect the tranquility of where they were at. For this reason, she can also be seen as being a strict, upright individual who follows the code of conduct, acting according to whichever kind of environment she is in such as the library area, a quiet place that was supposed to be for reading and studying.[1] She has a problem-solver type of mentality, ready to take on challenges with her wits, remaining calm-minded and clear-headed even when one section in her group was acting uncooperative with the other members. Kiyotaka notes that she isn't the kind of person who would speak ill of others without any sort of reason to do so. Additionally, her good-natured disposition is also what allowed her to become close friends with the likes of Kikyō Kushida and Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, despite them both being students of Class 1-D which was looked down on by upper classes and were deemed as defective existences.
Even though she politely rejected the romantic feelings of an admirer who was considered to be a close friend of hers, Honami refrained from using any harsh or hurtful words and still honestly hoped to stay as friends with her classmate afterwards. She acts friendly to most of the students whether they're in the same class as her or not without showing bias from her tone of words when conversing with them. As she is popular among the boys and girls from all classes and grade levels, she is a person who has a way with words, pulling and tugging the heartstrings of many like Kiyotaka to feel affection towards her without intending to do so. She is a lively girl who appears to be brightly talkative with friends and adversaries no matter their affiliation or background.[2] Even when the going gets tough, she stays sangfroid and aplomb as long as victory is still within her class's reach. In the light novels, during a girls' talk even with her new friends she made along the way while faced with an exam, Honami could be genuinely viewed by others as an honest, truthful person to a fault without attempting to lie her way out or feign ignorance when being barraged with questions.[3] Honami was eager to actively collaborate with the students of the other classes and reach out to them during the exam where they were put together in the same group, looking to earn their trust and friendship. She even readily came prepared ahead of time to play cards with them. Honami is a curious individual who can come off as appearing interested to whoever caught her attention like Kiyotaka, believing there is still plenty more to find out about the true extent of his abilities. This curiosity of hers motivates her enough to go as far as to seek out Kiyotaka and attempt to engage in a conversation with him about his past life, wishing to investigate the latter and getting to know the man better as a fellow student. Suffice to say, she is the lynchpin holding her class together and stalwart towards her classmates, attracting even the attention and praise from other class leaders like Arisu, Ryuuen, Kiyotaka and Nagumo.
What's more, she is described to be a person of principle and conviction who has her own moral values to stand by and follow accordingly as it is a matter of virtue to her. Honami is resolute and steadfast in keeping her word, as after Kiyotaka helped her, she acknowledged that she owed him a favour for his help. She dislikes the mere thought of going up against people from opposing classes who she has a deep liking to during a competition as it feels like she betrayed them, particularly Kiyotaka. Before Suzune shot down her appeal, she would try her utmost best to no avail in extending the duration of the class alliance with Kiyotaka's class for as long as possible until the former herself is mentally prepared to see her former ally as an enemy to do battle against. While offering him support, she reminded him how this debt was something the former ought to seriously pay back as thanks. When she fell in love with somebody for the first time in her life and sought to buy that person a gift, Honami would be in self-denial about her feelings for the latter, telling herself that the gift was her way of conveying gratitude and debt to her saviour contrary to what the expression shown on her face is indicating to others.[4] She continued to assist and cooperate with him by gathering evidence to prove Ken Sudō's innocence. Honami even assisted Kiyotaka in rescuing Airi Sakura though she was under no obligation to do so, showing her generosity. This generous nature can be seen further when she was willing to use up some of her own private points to aid in carrying out Class D's strategy secretly made by Kiyotaka in Suzune's name against Kakeru's class to corner Ken's provocateurs. When her classmates had to partner up with an enemy class, she appeared vocal and unyielding about getting everyone to cooperate in overcoming the exam without any intention of giving up until it ended. Additionally, this can be attributed to her outspoken nature of calling others out like Kakeru in the presence of many students for not willing to work with her classmates during an exam where the two classes have to cooperate. She admits to herself that if Kiyotaka had been in her class, she wouldn't have had to worry about going all out or holding back and knew he would be an indispensable ally. She laments at the fact that this illusion wasn’t the reality she was living in.
More so, Honami is rather humble and modest to anyone be it her enemy or ally as in spite of her great talents and popular beauty known across school, she is not at all boastful about them but remains levelheaded and speaks respectfully to all her peers, even those in the lower classes. As a class leader who stands up and speaks on behalf of her whole class, that aspect of Honami is what attributes her to being a rational individual who can be reasoned with logically. She shows signs of being compassionate, caring and worrisome in nature about people even outside her class, apart from her classmates, voicing her meaningless worries for the others' well-being if they were in a dangerous situation.[5] Nonetheless, she prioritises the safety of her classmates first above all others, which matters to her the most in protecting,[6] with a rare exception if it involves the chances of Kiyotaka being expelled in later volumes. On the other hand, she also has a trusting side, considering the fact that she went as far as asking Kiyotaka, who she had just recently met, if he would pretend to be her boyfriend as a way to help her solve the relationship issue she had with her friend. This trust she has with anyone, like Kiyotaka regardless of their class affiliation, was seen again when she allowed him to borrow the use of her phone when he asked for it. She wouldn't go so far to persistently keep on questioning their action, particularly what Kiyotaka is doing in the Event Selection Exam as long as it proves reasonable and explainable to her which the former won't pursue further. However, Honami's trusting personality towards both Arisu and Miyabi can end up putting her in a terrible predicament and state of mind once they betrayed her that wasn't easy for her to recover or overcome without Kiyotaka intervening. Her most powerful idiosyncratic quirk can also be her most damaging blemish, as it has been used against her time and time again, to which she had to be repeatedly saved by Kiyotaka.
Meanwhile in the anime, Honami comes off as a bit playful in nature, teasing others to her own amusement as shown when she teasingly mentions Airi's close relationship and her obvious romantic affections for Kiyotaka. Though it was shown to be all in good fun between the two girls, as after her own friendly relationship with Kiyotaka was mentioned by Kikyō, Honami simply gave a slight smile in response about the growing friendship she had made with him after the two met and befriended each other. Honami rarely gets annoyed, although when the situation calls for it, she adopts a serious side to herself which was shown when she reprimanded Kakeru Ryūen and students of Class 1-C for their bullying of Ken and they complied without protest. This side of her was seen again when she helped Kiyotaka apprehend a man who was attempting to assault Airi and told the man to be silent after he protested and gave him a look of disgust for his actions. During the Sports Festival, she is open and helpful to working with unreasonable people like Kakeru if they happen to pair up together, putting aside her feelings for now to achieve victory on an exam for the sake of her class.[7] Honami is strong-willed enough to step in front of two powerful male students fearlessly without batting an eye, ready to make verbal threats like warning the school about them if they don't stop escalating the dispute. Honami dislikes allowing trouble to go unnoticed in front of her, making Honami seem like an interventionist in nature. This was due to the frequent times where Honami often found herself sticking her nose in other people's business which was not her place to get involved until it detrimentally affected her and her class during an exam.
Usually, Honami is the type who goes with the flow or the mood whenever she talks with her friends.[8] Yet, for situations that involve herself lacking in knowledge about topics that revolved around romance, confessions, and so on, Honami is seemingly oblivious on what to do next and how to answer it while in front of her friends. Let alone that, Honami becomes somewhat shy and needy for advice as she goes out of her way to ask for Kiyotaka's assistance involving a friend's confession to her. After getting a love letter from her friend Chihiro Shiranami, she is unsure on how to go about it, thinking of not being honest about her true feelings towards the girl and to lie and pretend that she is with Kiyotaka as his fake girlfriend as the best way to get out of such situation. Honami even admitted to Kiyotaka that she had no idea of what it meant to be a couple with someone or how to turn a person down without hurting them and her friendship.[9] When taking into consideration Miyabi's deal of borrowing points by going out with him, it is revealed that Honami had no experience on love or any romantic relations whatsoever with the opposite gender before and does not know how to confront them properly until she later confesses to Kiyotaka during their second year in school. Her shyness was seen again when Honami hesitated in talking about the growth of her bust size to Suzune Horikita after she asked about her chest development. On the other hand, Honami seems rather secretive about herself and her class, as she was quick to take action in reclaiming her phone back without haste when Kiyotaka noticed the massive number of private points she possessed.
In that sense, she is protective of the class dealings between herself and her fellow classmates as these details are promisingly kept confidential among them. This was seen again as only in the anime that before Honami spoke to Ryūji Kanzaki about twenty million private points, she would make sure to hide her phone from him though she was very vague in her query. Due to this, she appears to understand why others hide their own secrets as shown where she recognized the true intelligence of Kiyotaka and saw that he was someone who shouldn't belong in Class D. Even so, Honami expressed enough consideration for his privacy that she didn't push the issue any further when he didn't seem to like talking about it. That being said, she still maintained a sense of curiosity about him, as seen in a conversation with her homeroom teacher on the cruise. Honami doesn't appreciate receiving praise from others like Kiyotaka and Suzune if it doesn't feel warranted or justified due to her own past mistakes. Honami happens not to think very highly of herself such as when being called a good person, thinking that she is not a wonderful human being as Suzune makes her out to be. It was to the point where Honami uncomfortably refuses to look at Suzune in the face anymore in a conversation after getting called that, choosing to avoid locking direct eye contact with her altogether as she doesn't want to be given too much credit by the latter as a goody two shoes.[10] Prior to her romantic feelings for Kiyotaka taking root, she was presumably thought to be overly idealistic and hopeful in achieving a future where all her classmates are saved, won't drop out of school and graduating with them from Class A as a whole, not looking to lose any one of them due to expulsion. As she set her mind and goal on rising to Class A and graduating together with every single one of her precious classmates intact, Kiyotaka advises Honami to continue placing her trust on her class and move forward with her classmates without looking back no matter what happens.

Background
LN Vol 09-11 Younger Honami from the past. Prior to the plot of her high school life, she had once happily lived a fun, comfortable lifestyle throughout both her elementary school and middle school years. She made plenty of friends, both boys and girls alike. Honami happens to hail from a fatherless family, living with her mom and her little sister who is two years younger than her. Honami's family isn't very well-off as her mother had it hard, working full-time as she alone raised two children all by herself without their father around to help. Ever since elementary school, Honami had made it her plan to get a job of her own after she finished middle school. Sincerely looking to increase her family's low-income and give them happiness, Honami thought that she could be of use to the two by seeking a job where she can work to earn money like her mother. Because it would cost a lot of money to get into high school, Honami's reason for searching for a job was so that she could help out not only herself but also her mother and sister financially as well. In the end, this idea she had in mind couldn't come to pass because her mother was opposed to it. Nonetheless, even without the money, Honami did in fact successfully put in a lot of effort and time to study and developed her skills as hard as possible. Although she found sports rather difficult, Honami does try to put in as much effort into it as she did with her studies. Thanks to that, she was able to make use of the student scholarship system and reach the top of her middle school. As an honors student and a member of the student council in middle school, she was offered a spot at a private high school on a scholarship. By the time she became a 3rd year in middle school, Honami was even able to gain the title of student council president that she had longed sought after.
During the summer of that year, she discovered her mother pushed herself too hard and collapsed while trying to support and raise their livelihood as a family. At some point in time later on, her mother would go through sudden hospitalization, leaving the former unable to buy her younger sister a birthday present. Seeing the anguish and ridicule her sister was showing to their mom for not getting her her first present, Honami figured the only way to restore her smile is that she the elder sister must be the one to do it in her mother's stead. So, after school on the day of her sister's birthday, Honami went to a department store and stole for the very first time a fashionable hair clip which was worth 10,000 yen without getting caught red-handed. Despite feeling guilty for having committed theft, she still went home and presented the hair clip to her sulking little sister which made the latter happy. Even though Honami had told her sister beforehand to keep the present a secret from their mom, she ended up wearing it anyway the next time they went to pay a visit to her in the hospital. Through that visit, her mother learned of the robbery she did in the store and became seriously angry with Honami to the point where she got slapped for it and took away the hair clip from her sister. Although her mother was supposed to stay hospitalized, Honami was forcibly dragged back to the store by the latter to return it. At the same time, Honami would prostrate on her hands and knees while begging for their forgiveness about the crime she had done to them. Whilst the store didn't hand her over to the police, the commotion about the theft she committed still did spread beyond her control. It is currently unclear as to what changes happened to Honami's relationship with her family members or about what it is like between them now that the incident has long been resolved. Without Kiyotaka's intervention, Honami would have never forgiven herself for what she had done or come to terms with it. Driven by her guilty conscience and laying the blame on herself, she wasted almost half of the 3rd-year of middle school and became a shut-in before graduation.
Meanwhile, she had never once bothered to consult with anyone about issues that became detrimental to her mental well-being. In other words, Honami being absent from school had badly affected her class attendance for as long as six months. When she learned about Advanced Nurturing High School, Honami thought that it was her chance to think about moving forward at long last and start over again with a blank slate. It was all because of her homeroom teacher from middle school informing her about this high school that she picked this institution to be enrolled in. Swearing an oath to herself, she decided to attend school once again in the hopes that she could bring back the smiles of her mother and her little sister. Though the shoplifting incident was resolved way back in middle school, it still affected her even when she went on to enter high school where this crime resurfaced as a rumor spread by Arisu. After entering high school upon enrollment, Honami had made it her objective of wanting to apply for the Student Council and work with them like back in her middle school days. In turn, she proceeded to go out of her way and submit an application to join the student body group led by the then President, Manabu Horikita during that time as a first-year freshman student. Not before long though, in the special one-on-one interview she had with Manabu, her application was soon turned down by him much to her disappointment. Following that event however, Honami was able to later successfully get on board with the Student Council thanks to the work of Vice-President, Miyabi who silently established contact with her behind President Manabu's back[21] right after she had chosen to reveal her mistake to him. The reason how someone like Miyabi was able to somehow convince Honami to give away her own secret to him in the open is through putting himself in her shoes where she must confess the full truth behind her assignment to Class B without holding anything back like he had once done in the past with an unknown Student Council member. Understanding what she must do in order to successfully apply for the Student Council, Honami was given the option by Miyabi of confessing her past to a powerful member of the student body so that he can then evaluate her worth as proof of having what it takes to be part of the organization.
Although she tries to inquire what Miyabi's confession was, he refuses to answer her as Honami is the one who is being questioned by him. After checking her achievements and abilities for himself during this meeting, Honami was told by him that it wouldn't have been strange if she had been placed in Class A instead of Class B during the start of her first-year as a freshman but figured something must be amiss of why that is not the case. He demands Honami to disclose everything about her history prior to enrolling in high school, egging the girl to explain the reason for what put her into Class B and not Class A. Miyabi states that if the former deemed Honami as a student worthy enough of Class A then he'll take responsibility and accept her into the Student Council as she wanted. Seeing that she still holds a slim chance of getting into the student body due to the possibility of hope that his words had given her, Honami reflects on the causes of why someone as her was not placed in Class A but Class B and whether to openly state the truth. Honami was informed by Miyabi that he is taking her application into consideration despite Manabu's refusal to let her enter the Student Council due to the Vice-President needing to find and recruit a first-year freshman like herself to join the group and be trained under him. As Vice-President Miyabi was set to be the future Student Council President after his predecessor Manabu steps down, it was why she got scouted out by him in the first place beforehand to first assess Honami's achievements and abilities before deciding to allow her entry as an official member of the student body. When Miyabi finally states that if she turns away this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show her worth, Honami won't be able to secure a special place in the Student Council anymore. Upon hearing what he said to be her one and only chance to redeem herself, it became the last straw for Honami to finally make the decision in sharing her past with him while Miyabi promises not to say a single word about it outside their meeting room. As Miyabi was an exception, Honami made it clear to herself to not speak a word about her crime to anyone publicly other than him the moment she was enrolled into high school until her enemy and rival, Arisu Sakayanagi found out about it later down the line.
Not long after Arisu learned of Honami's past through the words of Miyabi himself, rumors of her possibly being a criminal that is yet to be confirmed starts circulating and spreading in droves by the people of Class 1-A during her first-year as a freshman. Out of all the rumors that got to her head and broke her mental resistance, it was only this one that pushed Honami to return back to being a shut-in and locked herself away at home, like the time in middle school. Isolated in her dormitory room for a lot of days, Honami refuses to actively attend high school or her class everyday anymore because of such a rumor that happened to resonate badly with her. When none of her fellow classmates and friends were able to successfully reach out to Honami, the only person who came through in the end was none other than Kiyotaka who did as he succeeded in breaking what was left of the former's fighting spirit. Thanks to Kiyotaka's persistent effort and time in stopping by to visit her every single day of the week and being consulted by him outside the door to her room, Honami decided to reveal the weak side she has about the secret of her past experience. Due to this turning point between herself and Kiyotaka, she is able to come to terms with her history and sins, no longer desiring to run away from everything and face Arisu head-on together with the rest of her classmates as a united class. With her resolve renewed after Kiyotaka's help of being all ears and ready to listen to her troubles, Honami was able to bounce back stronger than before and make a speedy recovery mentally. From that moment on, Honami resumed going to school and attended class, meeting up with all her classmates who were worried about the former all this time while she was gone. Before long, she and her classmates were then confronted by Arisu and the latter's subordinates of Class 1-A wherein Honami proceeded to openly disclose her secret to everyone present in and outside the classroom of how it is closely related to the one rumor among many about her that wasn't false. Because of everyone remaining supportive and respectful to Honami despite learning the full details behind her past, she was able to resolutely and strongly hold her own against Arisu, resisting the latter's constant barrage of verbal attacks and the underhanded strategy used by Class 1-A.
Throughout her first-year from beginning to end, it was revealed that Honami had spent a year with her classmates, and protected the position of Class 1-B from ever changing or getting dethroned. Surrounded by so many companions she befriended over the course of time spent together as friends from the same class, her school life had been smooth sailing at first. However, near the end of her time as a freshman and during the beginning of the second-year, the gap between the strengths and weaknesses of the classes behind was closing in due to the heavy losses she and her classmates suffered in the Event Selection Exam. Although defeat had finally caught up to Honami, and it was staring into her eyes like a reflection, she continued maintaining her fighting spirit for as long as possible under Kiyotaka's promise to meet her again a year later about his answer to her question concerning whether she can or still be able to win in the future. Currently, Honami felt a bit uneasy judging that a large difference between the classes in terms of class points and combat ability was growing at a rapid pace. By objectively analyzing the ongoing situation about herself, her classmates and students from the other classes, she is worried that the class at the bottom next year would likely be her own group overall. This was Honami basing it on Class 1-B's very slow growth rate when compared to their rival classes who are outpacing them each and every step of the way than they could possibly keep up against. Honami wants to do what she can to prevent herself and her own classmates from falling further behind the curve while her opponents are growing increasingly powerful over time.

He has a group of henchmen who do his dirty work, which contributes to his fearsome reputation.
Appearance
Kakeru Ryūen LN 2nd Year Arc visual.png Kakeru Ryūen's full appearance in the light novel. Kakeru Ryūen Anime Appearance.png Kakeru Ryūen's full appearance in the anime. Kakeru is a young man of average height with shoulder-length magenta hair that is styled on either side, and sharp magenta coloured eyes that strikes fear and trepidation onto anyone he comes into contact with. In addition, he has a slim and muscular physique.
In the light novel, he wears the standard uniform of the school. Although, in the anime, his attire consists of a standard red jacket and an unbuttoned black shirt underneath without a tie.
Personality
Kakeru is a blameworthy and reprehensible person who loves causing trouble for others as seen when he and his gang purposefully caused conflict with Ken Sudō and wanted to expel him.
He also possesses a sadistic nature, as shown when he looked as if he was going to attack the vulnerable Ken after his men held him down only to instead flick him on the head while laughing at his fear. He was very ruthless as he took a glass bottle and hit one of his followers on the head with it, showing no remorse after the act. This and many other actions shows that he is willing to use followers for any goal as he sees fit to achieve his purpose of controlling the school and enjoying himself. He is also shown to be insubordinate and disrespectful to certain characters, as shown when he spoke with Suzune Horikita and Mio Ibuki even having Albert Yamada throw the latter down after telling her to come to his room.
Despite his intimidating and dangerous appearance, Kakeru is acute in his own way of thinking, as he was quick to cover his tracks by telling Honami Ichinose even when she witnessed the event by declared that it was out of self-defence. He would come up with many unexpected strategies such as when he and one of his followers attacked another injured follower who failed in his task to frame Ken Sudō for assault and get him expelled. He also chose not to pick a fight with Class 1-A while in the presence of Manabu Horikita, the Student Council president and knows that he isn’t capable at that moment to take on Arisu Sakayanagi.
LN Vol 07-12 Kakeru scared as he is mercilessly destroyed by Kiyotaka. In the light novels, he showed great fear of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji after the latter viciously attacked him without an ounce of compunction. This incident caused him to note how shaken he was from it and how it was a first for him. Also, he is embarrassed by Rokusuke Kōenji for nicknaming him "Dragon-Boy", which caused Arisu Sakayanagi to making fun of him by repeating it.
Despite his ruthless nature he does seem to care for his class. For instance, he approached Hiyori Shiina as he was worried about her for always being alone. He also treats her as an indispensable ally in their class and is one of the people he truly respects. Plot
Kakeru is first seen harassing Ken Sudō along with members of his gang where Kakeru voices plans for Sudō, but the near brawl is broken up by Honami Ichinose who sees through his obvious lie and threatens to call security if he doesn't cease his act and he complies.
After completing the grueling Island survival special test, yet another special test was announced back on the cruise ship. For this special exam, Ryūen was placed in the Dragon Group, alongside prominent students from other classes like Kōhei Katsuragi from Class 1-A, Ryūji Kanzaki from Class 1-B, and Suzune Horikita, Yōsuke Hirata, and Kikyō Kushida from Class 1-D. On the day when a briefing for each group about to start, Ryūen approached Katsuragi by referring to him as the beast from a 'Beauty and the Beast' show that Suzune and Katsuragi were displaying in the front of him. However, Katsuragi stayed calm in the face of that obvious provocation and stating that since Ryūen and his lackeys were here, his original prediction about the group was comprised solely of students with a high-level academy ability was wrong. Hearing that, Ryūen snorted and said that thing was meaningless. When Katsuragi swore that he wouldn't let Ryūen bring his awful attitude to this exam, Ryūen pretended to be confused and asked what he was talking about, demanding Katsuragi to refresh his memory so he could remember.[1]
LN Vol 04-04 Ryūen approaching Katsuragi The following morning after the exam's announcement, Ryūen, alongside Ibuki, approached Kiyotaka and Suzune, who were seen exchanging information at a cafe. He blatantly asked them if they were chosen as the VIP, to which Suzune denied him an answer. Ryūen wondered how Suzune managed to wrangle the results on the island test, guessing that only certain types of people would’ve been able to conceptualize and execute a plan like that since she was far too serious-minded to have come up with it. He assumed that it was the second leader pulling her strings from behind the scenes as he quietly observed Kiyotaka. However, Suzune dismissed that theory and retorted that Ryūen was just upset a girl managed to see through his schemes. Hearing her reply, Ryūen laughed as if her words were irrational before adding that it was a mistake to put her trump card during the survival test when the game was just getting started. He then took out his phone and pointed it toward Suzune to snap a picture of her. As he was about to leave, he warned Suzune that he would discover who among Class D was making moves behind the scenes and everyone in her class was his target. When Suzune questioned him why he was so fixated on her and not leaders from other classes, Ryūen answered that neither Katsuragi nor Ichinose was his enemy; if he wanted to crush them, he could do it any time. However, when Suzune mentioned Sakayanagi, Ryūen became silent before responding that he saved Sakayanagi for the final course.
On the second day of the special exam, Ryūen approached Kiyotaka and Suzune once again, who were in the middle of a discussion, asking Suzune whether she had decided how to find the VIP. When Suzune answered that she had no intention of telling him, Ryūen smirked and told her he had started to discover the VIP's identity. Still, Suzune didn't believe it, stating he had no support like Katsuragi and Ichinose to get information. Ryūen simply responded that making friends and gathering information was two different matters. He had already reached the fundamentals of this exam, and Class C would win overwhelmingly depending on how things go; he only needed to find which class the VIP belongs to and then analyse their group. He also revealed that he was using a brute-force method by checking his classmates' emails to make sure they couldn't lie to him. Suzune argued that it's against the rules and he would be expelled, but Ryūen said that was not a problem. When she asked his thoughts on the Monkey group's test that ended the day before, he said he didn't care about it and left. After Ryūen had left, Kiyotaka and Suzune found a phone set to record audio underneath the chair Ryūen had been sitting in.
That afternoon, Ryūen was seen discussing with Suzune and Kanzaki even after the third discussion period ended in the Dragon's room. When Kiyotaka and Ichinose entered the room, Ryūen greeted Ichinose and gave her a proposal to crush Class A. He claimed that he had already known all the VIP students in Class C and wanted the three classes to share information on all the VIPs so they could go after Class A. Suzune rejected the idea in fear of betrayal, specifically from Class C. Ichinose also disagreed as she felt there's too much risk, and since Suzune had rejected his proposal, the plan was off to a bad start. However, Ryūen refuted it by saying there was a reason why Suzune couldn't do it. For the strategy to work, they need to understand their own classes perfectly. For Class D, which lacked any spirit of teamwork, this was an impossible undertaking. The same case also could be applied to Class A since they were split into two factions. Ryūen added that he and Ichinose could make it work, as he ruled his class while Ichinose was very popular within her class. He told her that he originally pitched the idea of a three-class alliance, but it was also possible with just two classes. The chances of a perfect outcome might be lowered, but he believed that he could see it through. If they pulled this off, Classes A and D would be stripped bare and left with nothing. Still, Ichinose didn't budge and refused to ally with him as his past actions hurt her classmates. Ryūen, not disappointed, got up from his chair. As he left, Ryūen glanced at Kiyotaka. When their eyes happened to meet, Ryūen muttered that it was impossible before lightly shook his head.
After the final discussion period ended, Ryūen approached Kiyotaka and others in the middle of a discussion at the cafe. Grabbing a vacant chair and forcefully slamming it next to Suzune, he thanked them for gathering in such an easy-to-find place. He started teasing Suzune, saying that it seemed she had grown more sociable given a rather large group she had gotten there with her, which provoked Sudō. When she wondered why he looked rather relaxed, Ryūen answered that he already knew the VIP student's identity in the Dragon group. As Suzune countered that the test had ended and no one in the group turned traitor, Ryūen, while smiling, told them the VIP was Kushida and he had known about it since the second day of the test, leaving Suzune and Yōsuke flabbergasted. He mocked her for being over-confident about her victory that she looked down on others, assuming no one would get the answer right and that's why he just went along with it until the end. Yōsuke asked him how he figured it out, and Ryūen simply answered it involved Suzune. He further explained that he knew everything by watching her eyes and mouth movements, breathing, behaviour, and tone. When Suzune tried to deny that, Ryūen said that he understood if Suzune didn't want to admit that she was the most incompetent person in the group. He assured her not to beat herself up since she merely just chose the wrong opponent, and this exam was supposed to be pure chaos. He also added that Class A was in for an especially rude awakening, implying his involvement in the four betrayal emails.
A mail came in at 11:00 PM and they all checked the results, except Ryūen. When they saw Class C came out on top, Ryūen grinned and thanked Suzune that because of her blunder, the Dragon group managed to clear the test with Outcome #1 and all the classes should receive a boost in points. He then placed his phone on the table, which showed the list of VIP students from class A in three groups, only targeting Class A after understanding the root of the test and succeed to clear it without focusing on Class B or D at all. He also told Suzune that she was his next target and wouldn't stop until he tore her to shreds, both in mind and body. Because of this exam, Class C had gained an overwhelming lead after obtaining such a huge number of points. Ryūen eventually walked away with satisfaction after saying that he's looking forward to the next semester.
LN Vol 07-12 Kakeru is given a well-deserved beating by Kiyotaka Ayanokōji In the light novels, Kakeru thought that someone else besides Suzune Horikita is pulling the strings for D-Class. Catching on to the recent rumors on Honami, Kakeru decided to play along in order to find the true mastermind of D-Class.
In Volume 7, Kakeru had his gang take Kei Karuizawa to the roof to lure out her class mastermind. The person who arrived was Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, who revealed himself as D-Class' mastermind to Kakeru and his gang. Kakeru recognized as the person always near Suzune, while his gang are unable to believe Kiyotaka's claims. All doubts were relieved after he gave them enough evidence, something that caused Kakeru to realize he was using Suzune as a scapegoat. Kakeru then his pawn attacked Kiyotaka, but they were easily defeated and Kiyotaka broke Kakeru physically and mentally, beating him up and leaving him terrified. Thus concluded the conflict between the two classes.[2]
Afterwards, in the days after the confrontation, Kakeru decided to withdraw from the school because he felt that he couldn't go on. However, he was surprised to discover that Kiyotaka covered for Kakeru and his followers by taking partial credit for their vandalism when they took Kei and not launching a complaint against them. Kiyotaka even informed Mio Ibuki, Albert Yamada and Daichi Ishizaki about Kakeru's possible plan to drop out, which led them to nearly do the same.
Kakeru ultimately rescinded his intentions to leave and rumors spread of Kakeru giving up his leadership of Class C and isolating himself from his gang.[3]
In volume 7.5 Kiyotaka called Kakeru to talk with him about some of the plans he has. Kakeru said Kiyotaka is really a piece of work, he was surprised how Kiyotaka will go just to screw with people, Kakeru thought that was his specialty but Kiyotaka put him out of business. Kiyotaka said somethings about plans and said he plans to expell kikyo which caused Kakeru to laugh. Later Manabu come and they talked about some details.
After that Kakeru stopped being leader of the class, but durning expelling exam Kiyotaka helped to save him and Shiho got expelled.
In volume 11, Kakeru returned to his job as the leader of class C.
In 2nd year volume 6, when Daichi heard that Kakeru and Kiyotaka have the same birthday day, Daichi said can they celebrate together to which Kei said Kakeru should apolgized to her. When Daichi asked Kakeru about it, Kakeru hit Daichi.
In 2nd year volume 7, Kakeru revealed he know about Maid cafe and they made one too much to anger of Kiyotaka's class. Kakeru later brought two of his classmates and two of the teachers into student council room and exposed Takuya as the culprit who hit his two classmates. Kakeru catched Takuya's bangs and said he would normally give him a strong injury but since they are infront of Sensei he will let him go and just get expelled. Takuya then started attacking, Kakeru wanted to fight but Some adults come and took Takuya away. It was later revealed that Kiyotaka's class and Kakeru's class have been working together.
In 2nd year volume 8, Kakeru went to Hokkaido with all other students of school, Kakeru and Kito had a pillow fight. Kakeru and Kito raced with each other on ski. They were close to hitting each other when Kiyotaka passed between them. Kakeru asked Kiyotaka did he lie that Kiyotaka is just a beginner. Later Kakeru talked with Kikyo as Kikyo asked him to end their work, but Kakeru wanted to use Kikyo. When Kakeru saw Kiyotaka's angry face the same one he showed in volume 7 when they took Kei, Kakeru was afraid. Kakeru gave up and left. Abilities

Mio Ibuki
For unknown reasons, she is always by his side as one of his followers however, it is clear she doesn't enjoy the pain he inflicts on others as shown when she flinched after he smashed a glass bottle on the head Daichi Ishizaki or when he had Albert Yamada beat Daichi and the others for their failure in getting Ken expelled.
On the cruise, he was angrily confronted by Mio who made it clear that she couldn't stand nor approve of their cruelty and wanted them to stop their actions. He ignored her words by treating her like a plaything and made advances on her which infuriated her for his callous acts. After he tried to leave, she called out to him but Yamada intervened and Mio was angry and disappointed that he manipulated him into being his pawn before Yamada threw her down and Kakeru grinned at her pain.
When Kakeru wanted to drop out from school, Mio wanted to stop him, Mio said if he is going to drop out, fight her first. But Kakeru said she got bad injuries. Mio kicked him and Kakeru fell to ground. Mio was annoyed that Kakeru remained but even more angry that Kiyotaka defeated Kakeru when Kiyotaka was not even their classmate.
Hiyori Shiina
Not much is known about their relationship except that he seems to trust her. She acts as an advisor to him and so he treats her with respect not shown to his other classmates. He greatly values her worth and intelligence she brings to their class and cares for her to a certain degree. She doesn’t agree with how he runs the class but doesn’t go out of her way to go against him. She does not associate with him more than necessary on the condition that he wouldn’t bother her during her private leisure time.
Other Classmates
He is the representative of his class, he and his gang make sure that his orders are followed as Ryuen enjoys leading his fellows by fear.
Class A
Arisu Sakayanagi
They appear to be familiar with each other as Kakeru remarked on how it looked as if she established her rule in the school very quickly. He swore to her that he will take down all the classes including hers so that he could rule the school as she found his declaration interesting and accepted the challenge. Initially he treats her as the last and most formidable opponent before he could establish his dream of ruling the school however Kiyotaka soon took that role. He still regards her as a threatening presence in the school and doesn’t go out of his way to make an enemy out of her lest he incur her wrath.
Kōhei Katsuragi
Not much is known about their relationship, in the survival test the two are shown forming an alliance to take down the other classes. When Katsuragi attempted to shake Kakeru's hand as a sign of agreement, Kakeru told him not to overstep his boundaries by reminding him of his failure to reach the Student Council. He soon walked off as Katsuragi became angry with his unnecessary remark, showing the two have a mutual disdain towards one another.
Class B
Honami Ichinose
It is shown in Episode 3, that he knows her due to her immense popularity in the school and she was familiar with him. He greeted her after she finds him and his gang harassing Ken Sudō. When he claims his group were acting in self-defense, she saw right through his lies and reprimands his cruel actions. She soon threatens them by stating that if they didn't let Ken go immediately, she'd had no choice but to get security. He complied to her demands without protest, trying to avoid unwanted trouble with someone who has a huge following. As fellow leaders of their respective classes, he treats her as a huge threat and some level of respect not given to even his classmates. After defeating her in one of their class battles, his impression of her decreased and he became more confident and arrogant whenever she’s around. On the other hand, she feels dejected for her failures and seeks to clean her record by successfully beating him in the future.
Class D
Ken Sudō

Ken puts very little efforts into his studies, which grants him the nickname with two other classmates the "3 Idiots of D-Class". He is always seen to sleep in class, and also once refused to join Suzune Horikita's study group for the sake of his grade.
He is known to be hot tempered, and quick to anger when people do what he deems to be pointless or insulting to him, showing how easily provoked he can be.

Through this feelings, he has been able to transmit his hard working nature towards his studies and be recognised as the person with the most improved grades, astonishing everyone who previously doubted him. ADVERTISEMENT
Background
Ken's mother, who worked in the entertainment business, left him while his father spent every day living somberly as a mere janitor. Ken gave up on his studies and decided to enter the world of sports. Then his first encounter with basketball. Normally, he disliked playing with others as a team, but miraculously, he was able to make it work and his skill with the sport increased.
Ken even got a recommendation for the high school with one of the best basketball teams in the country. However, he got entangled in violent activities, and his application was rejected. Ken then enrolled at Advanced Nurturing High School, a place where he wouldn't have to pay money for education, and a dream school where even his future could be guaranteed. Plot
Ken is first seen criticizing Yōsuke Hirata for proposing that the class introduce themselves, calling it childish. After he and the class were told about points, Ken was one of the most excited and during the month he used his points for trivial things while often hanging out with Kanji Ike and Haruki Yamauchi. He nearly got into a fight with students of C-Class but they decided to leave while mocking him.[1]
Days later, he was approached by Kiyotaka Ayanokōji to join Suzune Horikita's study group but angrily refused, while afterwards Suzune herself met with him and made him think about his athletic career and how it could be at stake if he were to be expelled, persuading him to study. However, he left after Suzune insulted the idiots and is joined by Ike and Yamauchi. He is next seen getting into a confrontation with C-Class, being grabbed by two students of the class and intimidated by Kakeru Ryūen. He broke free and tried attacking Kakeru but the fight was broken up by Honami Ichinose and C-Class walks off, and when Ken tried to stop them, he was stopped by Kiyotaka. In a huff, he refused to rejoin the study group and went to basketball practice while his thoughts were filled with doubt of becoming a possible failure.[2]
Afterwards, he is given the old test scores obtained by Kikyō Kushida and he is relieved to hear that there was a chance to pass the test.
While the whole class passed the test, Ken was the only one who didn't get a passing grade, being one point away due to the class average. He was told by Sae Chabashira that he would be expelled immediately, much to his dismay. Unbeknownst to him, Kiyotaka and Suzune came to his aid and sacrificed 50,000 points each so that he wouldn't get expelled. Later on, a celebratory party was thrown at Kiyotaka's room where Ken and some other students from D-Class came with him, relieved that he didn't get expelled. When Kikyō talked to Kiyotaka and hinted that he helped Ken out, the latter and the others stopped their activities and looked to see if this was true but Kiyotaka passed the credit to Suzune. A startled Suzune barely explained to a curious Ken that she did it for her own benefit.[3]
Sometime later, Ken got into a fight with Daichi Ishizaki and other students of C-Class on the stairwell. He overpowered them which caused them to file a complaint against him, which again, could possibly lead to his expulsion. As a consequence, his class does not receive points, and Ken ended up being berated for his confrontation by D-Class, still insisting his innocence. When Kushida formed a group to prove his innocence, they met in Kiyotaka's room after their search for witnesses proved fruitless, before Suzune arrived and proclaimed that she found one. Suzune told them that Airi Sakura witnessed everything but did not want to come forward with her knowledge, much to Ken's annoyance.[4]
At the hearing, he was accompanied by Kiyotaka and Suzune as well as Sae. Things didn't go his way at first until Suzune (with Kiyotaka's help) spoke and delivered a speech which implied that the fight was a set-up. She further proved it by asking all three boys of C-Class why they were all present at the stairwell and why, with all their strength, they got injured while Ken remained unharmed. Ken was surprised to see that Sakura decided to come forth. He is further shocked when she provided proof of her presence with a picture of herself and a glimpse of the fight in the background. This was pushed aside as a minor detail, as it didn't prove who started the fight, but rather that she witnessed it, causing Kazuma Sakagami to propose a compromise. He suggested a three-week suspension for Ken while a two-week sentence for the students in C-Class, but Suzune refused it. She voiced her opinion of Ken where she criticized him, which riled him up at first, but she followed up stating that he was not at fault for this incident, much to his shock. Ken watched on as Suzune demanded the dismissal of the accusations towards him while also becoming amazed by her speech. He got into an argument with C-Class about his innocence but the argument was halted by Manabu Horikita who said he would give his verdict the next day.[5]
A day later, C-Class withdrew their complaint against Ken, much to his joy. In the courtyard, he found and informed Kiyotaka of the news (not knowing that he was to be thanked for this act). Kiyotaka congratulated him and when the relieved Ken wondered if Suzune did something to help him, Kiyotaka again gave her the credit. After the brief celebration, Ken called Suzune amazing for her actions before leaving for practice as Kiyotaka looked on.[6]
On summer break, the Idiots of D-Class, Hideo Sotomura and Kiyotaka planned to peep on the girls, inviting them to a day at the pool. After some unexpected events took place, Ike ended up being trapped in the women's locker room and a long line of people from other classes form wanting to get in caused the plan to force Ken to distract them. Ken is met with a problem when the student council President arrived demanding he move out of the way. Luckily, Sotomura had signaled Kiyotaka and he persuaded Suzune to distract everyone long enough for Ike to escape unnoticed. While the event took place, Suzune stole the memory cards for the peeping incident. Though the plan failed, Ken enjoyed his time at pool with his friends and classmates.[7]
During the cruise, he quickly asked Kiyotaka over Suzune's first name and after learning it, blushed while saying her name repeatedly before leaving with the group. While getting lunch at a fancy area on the cruise, they were insulted by Yahiko Totsuka who berated them as trash, causing Ken to grab him but it was stopped by Kōhei Katsuragi.[8]
During the special exam on the deserted island, Rokusuke Kōenji had ditched the exam, causing the class to lose 30 S-Points. Ken, like the rest of the class, was angered by this selfish act, cursing him out loud and this is followed up after D-Class had won the survival test, confronting Rokusuke about his decision and becoming worked up after he is met with an egotistical opinion from Rokusuke.[9]
A certain day during summer vacation, Sudō was called to Kiyotaka's room as he was returning from club activities. Upon arriving there, Sudō was asked to help Katsuragi deliver a gift for his sister, considering Sudō would leave the school grounds for a tournament with his basketball club soon. After hearing that, Sudō rejected the proposal strongly and reason being that he wasn't obliged to listen to a request from Katsuragi. When Kiyotaka asked him about what kind of inspections the school performed, Sudō answered flippantly and said he had no idea. However, he began to give the proposal serious thought after Katsuragi offered a reward. Sudō then described all the checks the school performed. They would check students' bags in the morning before they got in the bus to head to the tournament. After that, they would confiscate their phones. In the changing area, there weren't any teachers around when they changed, but the teachers did keep a strict watch on the students, going as far as to provide separate bathrooms so the students wouldn’t be able to talk to people from other schools. When Kiyotaka asked if it was okay to bring food, Sudō nodded that it was allowed.
Kiyotaka then explained he would give Sudō a lunchbox and a water bottle, with the gift box and the bag hidden in them, asking Sudō to mail them through a post when he had the chance. Sudō retorted when Kiyotaka said it was an easy task, to which Katsuragi agreed because the risks were potentially great. To convince Sudō, Katsuragi told him that he would pay 100,000 points, making Sudō stiffened. For him, who struggled day to day on about 1,000 or 2,000 points, 100,000 was an incredible amount. But despite this magnanimous offer, Sudō became wary as he asked Katsuragi why he wanted to go so far to deliver the package. After listening to Katsuragi's story about his sick sister and how he was the only one who could celebrate her birthday, Sudō became sympathetic but still couldn't ignore the possibility that Katsuragi could betray him since he once had fallen into a trap and almost kicked out of the basketball club. To clear his doubts, Katsuragi said he would pay 20,000 points in advance and pay the remaining points as a reward after Sudō completed the task, which would prove that Katsuragi was complicit in their act and they'd both suffer the consequences if either party betrayed the other. Sudō finally agreed as it's hard to turn Katsuragi down after the story with his sister.
A week later, Sudō called Kiyotaka and invited him to a fortune-teller in Keyaki Mall, telling him that he got some extra cash from Katsuragi's payments so he would like to treat him. Sudō even had already planned out a schedule as he informed Kiyotaka about his plan to get there early around 9:30, so they wouldn't be waiting forever. Since the tournament had ended, tomorrow would be Sudō's day off. Sudō told Kiyotaka it was necessary to rest a little since his club had done nothing but train all this time. When Kiyotaka specifically mentioned a certain task, Sudō exclaimed it was difficult as the tournament's restrictions were very high, but he still managed to finish it. And he also made sure to delete the data before heading back and told him not to worry. When Kiyotaka asked Sudō if he got to play in the game, Sudō answered he was the only one out of all the first years to play and even scored, but they still lost in the end so he was not precisely that proud.
The call topic then went back to fortune-telling, with Sudō asking Kiyotaka to invite Suzune along as well, fully aware that if he invited her himself, his chances of success were rather slim. Kiyotaka, already grasped Sudō's true intention, said he would try but told Sudō not to expect too much. However, that answer didn't satisfy Sudō, reaasoning that if he couldn't invite Suzune out, there was no point since he had already planned on Suzune being there tomorrow. Later, Sudō received a message from Kiyotaka that Suzune refused to go, to which he disgruntled replied by telling him to forget about the plan

ADVERTISEMENT Appearance
Kōhei Katsuragi Anime Appearance Kōhei Katsuragi's full appearance. Kōhei is a tall, intimidating, and well-built young man. He is bald due to an illness and has a large body frame compared to other students, which contributes to his intimidating appearance.
Personality
Kōhei is an intelligent student who worked very hard to reach Class 1-A that he became one of its representatives.
He is a serious man who adheres to the rules of manners and good conduct, as he reprimanded another student of the class for making fun of Ken Sudō and his classmates. He was calm in telling Ken not to get easily provoked by his classmates' actions, but his demeanor intimidated him into stopping from arguing any further. From this display, it shows he is one of the few upper students who have no problems in associating with those of the lower classes, or that he was simply annoyed by their antics.
He expresses slight anger when some of his failures are mentioned, such as when Kakeru Ryūen brought up his rejection after trying to join the Student Council. ADVERTISEMENT
Plot
Kōhei was first seen beside Arisu Sakayanagi, listening to Manabu Horikita as he officially welcomes each first year student into the school.
Kōhei was next seen with Arisu along with several other students being congratulated and was asked the extent of what they know about the S-system.[1]
He is next seen with Arisu looking at the scores of each class, remarking on the advancement of Class 1-C before following with a statement that Kakeru Ryūen is a dangerous man, to which Arisu simply responded by stating everything was "boring" and walks off.
During the school cruise, Kōhei ate lunch at a fancy restaurant within the ship. There, he reprimanded Yahiko Totsuka (Kōhei's classmate) for ticking off Ken Sudō, noting the possible consequence of losing points for bad behavior, and warned him to conduct himself as proper A-Class student should. Kōhei advises the Class D students to keep out of trouble. He then continues on by asking if Ken intends to repeat his earlier blunder, stopping the commotion from escalating.[2]
After arriving at the deserted island, his class set up their camp inside a cave. He was spotted along with Yahiko conversing in front of the entrance by Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. Then sometime later, Kōhei appeared to confront Suzune Horikita and Kiyotaka, fending them off after knowing their intent to go inside their camp.
It was revealed that Kōhei had made a contract with Kakeru, unaware that he was being deceived in the process. Following that, on the last day of the survival test, Kōhei had an expression of disbelief after knowing that his class was ranked third, clueless that it was because of Kiyotaka's elaborate scheme. After that, Kōhei was assailed with voices of discontent by classmates complaining about their losses. Masayoshi Hashimoto came and commented about the outcome being pathetic.
Seemingly unfazed by the insult, Kōhei accuses him of being the one who told Kakeru the name of Class 1-A's leader(Yahiko Totsuka).[3]

He's usually seen wearing a standard school uniform and he has also been seen wearing swim trunks when he is at the pool.
Personality
Episode 005-091 Manabu's serious side. Manabu is a vastly intelligent and serious man who was very dedicated to his duty as student council president. He holds his role in high regard, displayed through his belief that his reputation could be tarnished if it was discovered that Suzune Horikita was in D-Class, the lowest class.
He does not tolerate excuses as he couldn't believe or accept his sister's words that her placement in D-class wasn't her fault. With no remorse, he almost went as far as attempting to assault Suzune, showcasing his violent side, before Kiyotaka Ayanokōji intervened. He quickly tried to take his fury out on him, but his strikes were easily brushed off by the latter. After the battle, rather than apologize to his sister, he reprimanded her anti-social nature and told her to work harder if she didn't want to be in the lower classes of the school.
He appears to enjoy complex social situations, as shown when he smirked at the complaint against Ken and when he informed Sae Chabashira why he was present at the hearing. Despite his serious outlook and reputation, he is not above giving praise to those who impress him, shown through his interactions with Arisu Sakayanagi and Kōhei Katsuragi about their success on the recent tests. This attitude appeared again when he complimented Kiyotaka after holding his own in a battle with him. He seems to have developed a degree of respect towards Kiyotaka as his actions have caught his eye, demonstrated when he hinted that Kiyotaka intentionally entered D-Class believing he is hiding what he is fully capable of and becomes disappointed when Kiyotaka does something that doesn't live up to his expectations, such as the events with Ken's hearing. However, he was willing to let Kiyotaka become part of the student council due to seemingly admiring his talents and although his offer was turned down initially, did not give up on trying to recruit Kiyotaka.

Plot
Episode 001-022 Manabu welcoming first-year students. Manabu was first seen giving a speech to the first years telling them to prepare for the new year in school where he was next seen observing D-Class from his office before talking with Arisu Sakayanagi and Kōhei Katsuragi, praising their recent test scores.
Episode 002-114 Manabu's clash with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. He later met with Suzune Horikita who he was quite annoyed to see, and Suzune attempted to plea to her brother about how she changed, but he didn't accept it as her placement in the lowest class at the school would ruin his stature. He demanded that she leave the school to avoid further disgrace to his name, although she refused and stated that she would make it to A-Class no matter what. Hearing this, Manabu pushed her to a wall berating her for her shameful actions and attempted to attack her when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji intervened, having witnessed everything and admonished Manabu for his actions as he told him to release her. Suzune begged Kiyotaka to stop as it wasn't his concern, but when he complied Manabu attacked him. However, Manabu was surprised when Kiyotaka nimbly avoided and dodged Manabu's other strikes. Impressed by this display, Manabu asked Kiyotaka if he studied martial arts as the latter gave him a vague answer. Manabu soon recognized him as the student of D-Class who scored fifties on all his entrance exams and a recent quiz. He inquired on this even hinting that Kiyotaka was hiding his intelligence on purpose, but the latter shrugged this off. Manabu left, though not before expressing surprise that his sister had made a friend, but she disregarded it as he chided her, telling her she needed to acknowledge her shortcomings.
Episode 005-066 Manabu resides over Sudō's case. Manabu then received a complaint from C-Class, regarding an attack by Ken Sudō. Manabu called the news exciting and held a hearing for the students. He presided over the meeting telling Sae Chabashira that his busy schedule caused him to attend. His presence caused Suzune to become nervous and scared until Kiyotaka brought her back to her senses and she gave a speech that doubted Class C's version of how the fight went down before having the only witness, Airi Sakura, come out. Sakura provided proof that she was present using a photo from her camera, which caused Manabu to point out to Kazuma Sakagami, the skeptical teacher of class 1-C of a unique photo which was one of Sudō and the boys from C-Class fighting in the background. The evidence was considered minor as it only proved Sakura was there but not who initiated the fight and this causes C-Class to suggest on a suitable punishment. Suzune rebuked this, leading to an argument between them that was silenced by Manabu, calling it a waste of time and telling them that he'd make a decision the next day and if nobody came forward there would be expulsion on the table.
Afterward, Manabu left the office with Akane Tachibana to find Sakura and Kiyotaka. He voiced his disappointment as he stated that when he saw Kiyotaka present, he assumed there was a strategy involved but Kiyotaka disregarded this as it was Suzune's actions. Manabu then questioned whether Suzune did so by herself as Kiyotaka confirmed it, causing him to wonder. He turned his attention to Sakura about her presence in the hearing stating if she couldn't prove it, then it was a lie. He caused her to get nervous, but Kiyotaka defended her, while in response Manabu attempted to attack him again as the latter dodged his strike and Manabu questioned as to whether he has something planned but got another vague answer.
Sometime later, the students of C-Class withdrew their complaint, to which he accepts, though he did ponder why they did so, suspecting Kiyotaka was somehow involved. While he and Tachibana were walking, they met Kiyotaka in the hallway. Manabu explained the recent events and asked if this proved that Sakura was telling the truth before he congratulated him on his victory, but Kiyotaka once again gave Suzune all credit for the act. Glaring at Kiyotaka, Manabu had asked Tachibana if they had an opening for a secretary on the Student Council, to which she confirmed. Manabu offered the position to Kiyotaka, while Tachibana questioned his intentions only to be silenced by a gaze from him. He repeated this offer for Kiyotaka to join the council; however, he rejected it in favor of living a regular school life. Manabu accepted the choice for now but told him not to disappoint him as he and Tachibana walked off.
Episode 007-102 Manabu at the pool. At the pool, when students of classes 1-A and 1-C tried to get Ken Sudō to move and almost began fighting, Manabu arrived. After jumping off the top floor and landing in-between both leaders, he let everybody know that even though they are engaging in leisurely activities, they are still on school grounds. He soon bore witness to his sister's speech of how it's possible for D-Class to reach A-Class and his only reaction was a glare at his sister who responded in the same way.

Abilities
As the former Student Council president, Manabu had great authority over the students, especially shown when he intimidated Kakeru Ryūen, a delinquent with strong influence. He is the only known person to able to bring out fear and dread in Suzune Horikita, who is apathetic towards most matters, even if she is directly subjected to threats.
He is very proficient and experienced in fighting, as he holds a 5th-Dan in karate and a 4th-Dan in aikido, which are both high ranks for his age bracket.[2] Some of his martial arts skills were shown in Episode 2 when he attacked Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, although the latter avoided being hit with relative ease, much to Manabu's surprise. Suzune even vouched for her brother's skill and was amazed Ayanokōji avoided his attacks let alone held his own against him. Knowing it won’t do him any good to continue the fight, he stopped short after acknowledging his opponents talents.
He has a perceptive side as he was able to recognize the talents of Kiyotaka from their brief skirmish and instantly identified him as the student who scored the same grades of 50 exactly throughout his entrance exams. This was seen again as he could tell that Kiyotaka had some role in the dismal of the complaint from C-Class. He correctly deduced that he did it purposefully to hide his true talents and even offered him a role in the student council despite him being a Class D student, showing a high amount of respect and expectation for him from their brief interaction.
Suzune is his younger sister who seeks to prove herself in his eyes, showing that she greatly admires him. Despite this, Manabu views his sister as a disappointment due to her placement in Class D which greatly displeases him. It is unknown if they were ever close or if he ever had a brotherly affection towards his sister though it is shown Suzune has portrait of the two of them together, meaning he did care for her a while back.
Currently their relationship is rather turbulent, as Manabu has expressed contempt for his sister's academic failure placing her in Class D. He ordered her to withdraw from their school since his reputation, which he worked hard to build was on the line and became angry at her refusal. He nearly physically attacked her in his rage, though Kiyotaka Ayanokōji quickly intervened. After a brief scuffle with him, Manabu left but not before admitting he was surprised she made a friend that would help her but she denied it as he voiced his disappointment in her antisocial ways.
In Episode 5, they are seen together again at the hearing of Ken Sudō and Manabu's very presence causes Suzune to get shaken up so much that she couldn't speak. When Ayanokōji helps her get her resolve back, Suzune is able to get her point those present and the hearing commences much further. Despite his sister's strong determination in the case, Manabu was still not impressed with her efforts. He did question Kiyotaka if she came up with everything by herself after the hearing was over but gets a vague answer.
When Class C withdrew the complaint against Sudō, Manabu assumed it was Ayanokōji's idea but the latter casted the credit to Suzune. Manabu simply glared at Ayanokōji for either because of his sister being mentioned or sensing that he was lying to cover up his own involvement.
During the summer outing, though they didn't interact personally, Manabu bore witness to his sister's speech of how its possible for Class D to reach Class A. After the speech, his only reaction was a glare at his sister who responded in the same way, its unknown what he thinks of her now.
In the Sports Festival, he seemed curious by Kiyotaka stating that Suzune was the reason for Class 1-D changing. After stepping down as president, he aided his sister in confronting Kikyō Kushida. Suzune even called him the one person she could trust.

However, at times it appears he can sometimes be stern with her when she questions his decisions as shown in Episode 6 where she was shocked at his decision to make Ayanokōji, a first year student from the lowest class of the school into a member of the council.

When Suzune asked him not to get involved, Ayanokōji complied by releasing Manabu's arm. Manabu then took the opening and tried to hit him, but Ayanokōji nimbly avoided Manabu's strikes, to the latter's surprise. Manabu was impressed by Kiyotaka pushing him back, asking Ayanokōji if he studied martial arts to which the latter gave him a vague answer. Manabu soon recognizes him as the student who scored exactly 50 on all his entrance exams and on the recent quiz. He inquired him of this strange coincidence, hinting that he is aware that Kiyotaka is hiding his intelligence on purpose but the latter shrugs this off. Manabu called Kiyotaka's actions unique before he left the scene while being surprised his sister made a friend that would come to her aid.
They meet again, where they are present during a case for Ken Sudō. It is shown that Manabu has some expectations for Ayanokōji as he believed that his presence at the hearing meant that he had a strategy, but his question is disregarded. When Kiyotaka supported Airi Sakura, Manabu attempted to attack Kiyotaka again as the latter dodges his strike and Manabu questioned as to whether he has something planned but gets a vague answer.
When Class C's complaint against Sudō was withdrawn, Manabu meets with Kiyotaka in the hallway and informs him about this. He congratulates him on his victory, but Kiyotaka once again gives Suzune all credit for the act. Glaring intently at Ayanokōji, Manabu had asked Tachibana if they had an opening for Secretary on the Student Council to which she confirms. Manabu offered the position to Kiyotaka, showing that he truly sees him worthy of higher status than others, despite his class and background. This was especially noteworthy as Manabu is notoriously known for turning down many applications, even those from highly esteemed students like Honami Ichinose. Kiyotaka turned down the offer in favor of living a normal school life. Manabu accepted his decision for now though he told him not to disappoint him.

Even though Kamuro denied it, Sakayanagi continued her inductive reasoning towards Kamuro's action due to which she could not deny anymore and pulled out the can of beer that she had stolen. Observing the current situation she told Sakayanagi to just report her action to the school but Sakayanagi rejected it and told Kamuro that she had grown to like her, and asked her to be her first friend. She then said that in return for some favors, she would turn a blind eye to Kamuro's shoplifting that time and in future instances as well. Sakayangi told Kamuro that her instructions would be anything but boring and can replace the thrill Kamuro found in shoplifting. Later, it is revealed by Ayanokōji in his reasoning that Kamuro was used by Sakayanagi to lure him to take action to save Ichinose by telling him about what Kamuro and Ichinose both had earlier done

Appearance
Maya Satō Anime Appearance.png full appearance in the anime. Maya is a teenage girl of average height with upper-back length brown hair that has bangs hanging on the left side, and blue eyes. She is considered attractive by her male peers who expressed jealousy towards her association with Kiyotaka.
She opted for a laid back, carefree appearance by wearing a thin orange cardigan with the sleeves rolled up, with a loose tie around her neck.
During swimming class, she wore a swimsuit. In the survival test, she wore a tracksuit. Personality
The depths of Maya's character haven't been fully explored, but she appears to be a friendly and cooperative person as she was willing to participate in the class introduction. She is considered to be one of the Class leaders for the girls after Karuizawa due to her influence and popularity in Class D. Because of that, she takes great care of her image. For instance, only seeking Kei for advice as she did not want others to know she was a late-boomer on the topic of romance.
She apparently crushes on boys who impress her such as when she openly clung to the arm of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji after he showed off his athletic prowess and even flirted with him by calling him "handsome and cool" as well as asking if he has a girlfriend. At first she only came to him because he could run fast and that if Kei didn’t had Hirata, she would have gone for him. However, she began to foster authentic romantic feelings for him after getting to know him better. She told Kei that she never had a boyfriend or a date before and thus, sought her out for advice and assistance. She made the effort to do up her hair and don a fragrance, hoping that it would increase the chance of Kiyotaka accepting her.
Throughout her first date, she was extremely nervous but thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with her crush. She was crestfallen as Kiyotaka didn’t seem to be enjoying their date together but brightened up after he said that he doesn’t smile at all and that he did enjoy their time together even if he doesn’t show it. She also prepared a gift for him beforehand but kept it after he rejected her. She thanked him for the fun day and he felt terrible for rejecting her but knew that it was for the best after evaluating her worth to him.
She confessed to Kiyotaka after the double date during Christmas, but was rejected and ran away crying. They promised each other that they will hang out again in the future and wants to see each other again but Sato couldn’t hold her feelings and excused herself first as she didn’t want him to see her in a pathetic state. She was hinted to have cried an innumerable amount of times behind closed doors after being rejected as the next time we saw her, she was able to frankly tell her friends she was rejected without being choked up. Her friends summarised that this could only had happened if she had come to terms with the rejection showing an immense amount of willpower to move on. That said, she still harbors feelings for Kiyotaka and has admitted that she finds him way cooler and hotter than Hirata, not holding against Kei for liking the same person. She still feels conflicted that her best friend was in a relationship with her crush but decided to uphold their secret and support them in whatever way she can.
After a while, she became more accepting and even rekindled her best-friend relationship with Kei. However, she made it clear to her that she is still very much in love with Kiyotaka and will take him for herself if Kei ever chooses to break up with him and go for another male. She is happy to hear their relationship progression and even teases Kei often on their development. She also knows when to cut back on her quips. On one occasion, Kei was upset about her earlier comments, she soon apologised and recognised that Kei's feelings were authentic and that she has no intention of cheating on him. ADVERTISEMENT
Background
During elementary school, Maya was very earnest and had good grades, but since she was promoted to middle school, she had been prioritizing fun over studies with her friends. During the first year and second year of middle school, she was absent in the majority of the classes. Although she changed during the third year of middle school, her current academic skills are at a standstill. Plot
Maya is normally shown in the classroom with the rest of her classmates.
During the Survival test, Maya is seen holding after her underwear is stolen. She stands with the other girls in making sure the boys stay away from them.
After the test is over, Maya returns to the cruise ship and celebrate the victory for her class.
She is seen spectating the Sports Festival, being amazed by her classmates. She is left in awe when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji challenges Manabu Horikita to a race, while running at a great speed.
Maya later attends the school assembly in which Manabu steps down and names his successor. Afterwards, she approached Kiyotaka and shyly asked for his number to hang out. When he inquired on why, she responded by telling him of he impressed her at the race.
LN Vol 06-09 Maya clinging to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji's arm. In the Paper Shuffle special exam, Maya was paired with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, whom she had taken a liking to. She had approached him earlier and exchanged mobile numbers with him. She even flirted with him during the study session in the library when they were studying for the special exam. When she met him at Keyaki Mall, where they were going for the same movie, she had clung to his arm causing the by-standing Airi Sakura, to stifle a scream.[1]
In Volume 7, she had asked Kiyotaka Ayanokōji if he was fine with going out at the time, but he said that he was hanging out with the Ayanokōji Group. Feeling bad to see her disappointed, he asked her if she'd be fine with going out in the winter holidays. Hearing him, Maya was ecstatic and happily agreed.[2]
LN Vol 7.5-04 Maya asking for Kei Karuizawa's help. In Volume 7.5, Maya asks for Kei Karuizawa's help to plan her "date" with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. Kei was surprised and suggested other boys to her, but she refused, and said that she only liked Kiyotaka. She told her plan to Kei and made some changes according to her suggestions. She then later asked Kei if they could make it a "double-date", by including her and Yōsuke Hirata in the plan. Eventually, Kei agreed and decided to schedule the double date on December 25.
On the 25th, Maya met Kiyotaka at the meeting place, but noticing that Hirata and Kei hadn't yet arrived, she stalled for some time by pretending to look for her phone. After Kei's arrival, they moved on with their date and went to watch a movie. While they were going towards the movie theatre, Maya and Kiyotaka talked about various things, like music, anime, clubs and pets. She got very tensed when Kei asked him about Suzune Horikita, but calmed down when he replied that there was nothing between them. Under the onslaught of Kei's questions, Kiyotaka was saved by Hirata when the latter clarified that Kiyotaka had probably not found the person he really liked yet. The double date was then interrupted by Miyabi Nagumo, who took Kiyotaka away with him to talk.
LN Vol 7.5-10 Maya and Kiyotaka during the double date After the movie, Kei and Maya again start asking Kiyotaka questions about his personal liking about girls, and he is again saved by Hirata who follows up with Kiyotaka's statement. After lunch the group breaks up and Maya and Kiyotaka start going back to the dorms together. Maya sadly said that she knew Kiyotaka wasn't able to enjoy the day, as he hadn't even laughed or smiled once on their date, and asked if he didn't like her because she had earlier made fun of Suzune and bullied her, but he replied that that was not the matter. Maya then confessed to him and asked him to go out with her, but Kiyotaka rejected her feelings, telling her that he would have answered the same way to any girl, and that it was a problem with his own feelings. Hearing him reject her feelings, Maya ran away crying.[3]
LN 2nd Vol 01-10 Maya confronting Kei In the Second Year, it was revealed that Kei hasn’t been in contact with Maya for weeks which was peculiar. Maya then confronted Kei and asks her if she was going out with Kiyotaka and that she suspected her before she said anything. She told her that she already knew the truth but needed to hear it straight from her mouth and that if she lied, she couldn’t treat her as a friend any longer. Kei, who initially wanted to reject it, felt that it would only worsen things and admitted that she was. This angered Maya, who slapped Kei but immediately apologized. She felt betrayed as Kei was the only one she trusted enough to reveal her crush and asked for help when confessing to Kiyotaka. She also felt used as Kei collected plenty of intel behind her back while she was on her date. Feeling guilty, Kei told her that she could slap her other cheek as well, but Maya refused saying she wasn’t courageous enough to do it again. They then shared a hug and later went out for tea to rekindle their old friendship

Yōsuke Hirata
In volume 9, she revealed to Ayanokoji that she liked Hirata ever since the entrance ceremony, but Mii-chan thinks she isn't good enough for Hirata. Additionally, she revealed that she had never fallen in love before and couldn’t muster the courage to confess.
In volume 10, she was the only one who continuously reached out to him during his period of self-isolation and depression, however, she was constantly rejected and hurdled with abuse by him. On one occasion, Hirata almost physically lashed out at her before he was stopped. Some in the class called it compassion before realizing that it was out of love. Hirata doesn’t reciprocate her feelings as he felt like he wasn't yet ready for romance and would probably never be. In spite of that, he still acknowledges her feelings and was grateful that she never gave up on him unlike their classmates when he was being difficult. Her feelings for him are still as strong as ever and can’t be considered simply as a crush as she did not hold anything negative against him.
Kiyotaka Ayanokōji
LN Vol 09-06 Ayanokoji asking Mii-chan when did she liked Hirata. In volume 9 Mii-chan approached Ayanokōji and invited him to a cafe and asked him for advice in regards to Hirata. Mii-chan told Ayanokōji that Hirata told her that Ayanokōji is the most reliable and level-headed person in their class. Mii-chan asked Ayanokōji if Hirata was dating anyone after Hirata broke up with Karuizawa. Mii-chan then told Ayanokōji that she liked Hirata but she doesn't have any confidence because she has many rivals and that she hadn't fallen in love before. Ayanokōji told her not to be impatient since Hirata is a good person and after Hirata broke up with Karuizawa, it was unlikely that he will accept any confessions towards him quickly. Mii-chan told him her impression of Ayanokōji. She thought that since Ayanokōji is a silent person, many people had the impression that Ayanokōji is a scary person but her impression of Ayanokōji differs. She now thought of him as someone who is approachable and patient when listening to other people's thoughts.

School Landscape Rules
Each student will have their own points to be used in place of money when buying goods and services. There is nothing, within the realm of reason, that cannot be bought on campus using points.[2][3] Each class is assigned class points. Class points will fluctuate based on the affiliated students’ behavior and the results of certain tests. Every month, each student is assigned private points equal to their class points times 100.[4] Any student who fails to meet the required score on a midterm or final exam will be expelled. The threshold for expulsion is 50% of the average score of the rest of the class in any given subject.[5] Class A through D labels are provisional and can change based on class point assignments. The class with the current highest total class points will be named Class A, with B, C, and D, being named respectively in descending order.[6][7] Students are allowed to exchange private points among themselves. The acquisition of another students’ private points through fraud or threat will result in severe punishment, but the trading of points under any contract deemed legitimate will be left up to personal discretion.[8] Students can buy the right to transfer to the class of their choosing. 20,000,000 private points are required to do this.[9] All students must stay in on-campus housing and are forbidden to leave the campus except for certain special occasions. Additionally, contact with all outsiders is forbidden, including family and guardians.[10] ADVERTISEMENT

ADVERTISEMENT Appearance
Mio Ibuki Anime Appearance Mio Ibuki's full appearance in the anime. Mio is a teenage girl of average height who has short blue hair. Her hair has a single strand of hair sticking up, and she has purple eyes.
She is usually seen wearing the school uniform with a blue bowtie and orange shirt. Like all the other first years, she wore the red tracksuit during the special island exam period. Personality
Mio prefers acting alone to socializing, which is one of the reasons why she is often isolated inside of her class.[1]
Unlike her peers, she doesn't seem to enjoy the violence inflicted on others, as shown when she flinched after Kakeru Ryūen smashed a glass bottle on the head of Daichi Ishizaki, or when Albert Yamada was ordered to beat Daichi and the others for their failure in attempting to get Ken Sudō expelled.[2] She made it clear that she disapproved of their cruelty and wanted them to stop their actions.
She doesn't enjoy being insulted, as demonstrated when she told off Kakeru for treating her like a plaything when he made advances on her. She appears to not like being pitied, as shown when she angrily slapped away the hand of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji when he was trying to help her up after she was knocked to the ground.[3]
Because of her time with Kakeru, she expects mistrust and deception, or even accusations towards herself. She told off Kiyotaka and his group to leave her alone when they enquired about her.[4] However, she can be surprised, such as when people actually give her the benefit of the doubt, for example, she was caught off-guard when Kiyotaka stated he trusted her after some panties were stolen from the girl's tent during the island exam.[5] She was so shocked at his belief in her she nervously blushed while thanking him for it. She is also somewhat curious, as she showed interest when Kikyō Kushida and Haruki Yamauchi commented on how incredibly close Suzune Horikita and Kiyotaka were lately.
Episode 011-06 Mio's true self. She is very deceptive, as it is revealed that she infiltrated D-Class to steal Suzune's keycard, despite the class showing her kindness by taking her in and providing food and other necessities. She showed no remorse in stealing the card, even defeating Suzune in a fight.[6] ADVERTISEMENT
Plot
Mio Ibuki made her debut sitting at the karaoke bar of Keyaki Mall where she is seen flinching after Kakeru Ryūen's smashes a glass bottle over Daichi Ishizaki's head.[7]
She is later seen with Kakeru and his henchmen after failing to get Ken Sudō of class D expelled. She looks away as Albert Yamada proceeded to beat up Daichi again for failing in his attempt to expel Ken [2].
Episode 008-21 Kiyotaka attempting to help Mio up. During the school cruise, Mio confronted Kakeru where she demanded him to stop his actions, but he disregarded her words and told her to come back to his room while putting his arm around her. Disgusted, she slapped away his hand and demanded him to take her seriously, but she was ignored as he walked away. When she tried to stop him, Albert intervened, and she called him a puppet for following his every order. She tried once more to speak to Kakeru, but Albert got in the way and pushed her against the rails, commanding her to stop. Kiyotaka Ayanokōji came to help her up, but she angrily slapped his hand away and chastised him to not get involved in her business and stormed off.[8]
During the survival test, Kiyotaka, Airi Sakura and Haruki Yamauchi found Mio injured. She had bruises on her face and was slumped against a tree. Mio was then taken back to class D's camp by the group, despite her protests that they were enemies.[9]
Episode 011-07 Mio talking to Kiyotaka asking if he doesn't trust her like the others. The morning after the underwear theft incident, Mio approached Kiyotaka as he was working on pitching up the guys' tent.[10] She stated that she finds the theft unforgivable and tells him that she is aware that people like Ken would believe she was the one behind it because she was an outsider. Mio stated she knew Kiyotaka holds the same belief, but he reveals that he trusts her, catching her by surprise. She thanked him and blushed nervously. Since then, she became more curious about Kiyotaka's relationships with other people, turning around and stealing glances when Kikyō Kushida and Haruki Yamauchi both commented on how incredibly close Suzune Horikita and Kiyotaka were lately. While doing so, she caught a glimpse of the leader card in Suzune's possession. Since her camera had been mysteriously destroyed, she managed to steal it while Suzune was taking a bath by herself in the waterfall, after Haruki poured mud on her.[11]
Shortly afterwards, somebody started a fire at camp, burning the survival test manual, which led to even more trust problems within D Class. Mio used this as an opportunity to sneak away from the camp.[11]
Episode 011-14 Mio and Suzune fighting. Suspecting that the incident was Mio's doing, Suzune searched for her and discovered that she did in fact steal the key card. Mio attacked Suzune, despite the rules prohibiting violence against students from other classes, knowing that as long as nobody noticed, she could get away with it. Taking advantage of Suzune's fever, Mio defeated her and brought the leader card to a student who requested evidence.[11]
It was later revealed that Kiyotaka had deduced that Mio was a spy sent from class 1-C. Kiyotaka was also the one who discovered Mio's hidden camera and two-way radio. Having seen Kakeru possessing the other radio at the beach, he deduced Kakeru had not left the island and was lying in wait until the test was over. Kakeru had planned to deceive everyone into believing he, along with the majority of his class, retired, in order to gain the most points for his class in the test. Kiyotaka then began to stage events so that Mio could find out who the D-Class' leader was, such as bribing Haruki to splash mud on Horikita, so Mio could fulfill her mission and leave them. Kiyotaka had planned to change leaders for class 1-D after classes 1-A and 1-C verified that Suzune's name was on the card. Kiyotaka then executed his final plan, after Suzune's health deteriorated to the point that it became a valid enough reason to change leaders for their class. After the island test was complete, C-Class came last, and Mio apologized to Kakeru about incorrectly guessing class 1-D's leader (although she was right, but Kiyotaka had changed leaders without her knowledge). He forgave her, recognizing that someone outwitted them, leading to their loss and class 1-D's victory.[6]

Mio is shown to be a capable fighter, but she is not as strong as Kakeru Ryūen, who is able to dodge her attacks and overpower her easily. In the special island exam arc, she defeated Suzune Horikita in combat. After the events of the exam, Kiyotaka states that Mio likely would have won even if Suzune wasn't sick. Mio adopted Capoeira, a Brazilian martial art, as her main fighting style.[6] Despite her skill, she is an inferior opponent against Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, who easily swatted her aside.

He served as the Student Council President, succeeding Manabu Horikita.
Appearance
Miyabi Nagumo Anime Appearance.png full appearance in the anime. Nagumo is a tall, fair-skinned teenager with light blond hair and light blue eyes. Kei Karuizawa says that he doesn’t lack in the looks department but to her he is not someone who can rival the likes of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. Personality
Nagumo is a leader who likes to rule through an iron-fist, and is kind of a man who would expel anyone who tries to oppose him. Manabu Horikita suspects him for expelling 7 out of 12 students from the second year that had Nagumo involved in one way or another. He considers Manabu as his rival and keeps on challenging him, also trying to prove that he is better than Manabu. Despite Manabu already graduating, he now targets his little sister and takes joy in the fact that she is somewhat now directly under his control after she joined the student council.
It is later revealed by Ikuto Kiriyama that Nagumo promised the second year students reforms where ones who surpasses the boundaries between classes and are capable of making allies from different classes will be pulled up to A-Class. He believes in the ideology of winning the war at the expense of a battle as he lost to Manabu but was also able to drive Akane Tachibana to the point of expulsion.
He is shown to be quite persuasive as he got Honami Ichinose to give up her secret to him without much interaction between them beforehand. Although, this is also due to her gullible and credulous nature. He is also extremely narcissistic, but not to the point of Rokusuke Kōenji. He also likes to make those around him into his "toys", showing his deprave mindset. He is also not afraid to hurt his "toys" or sacrifice them for himself and his benefits such as when he gave Ichinose's secret to Arisu Sakayanagi. He can be livid when things doesn’t go his way such as when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji intervened during his plan to force Honami to become his girlfriend, only to have her saved by Kiyotaka instead.
He is also seen to be attracted to hot girls such as Honami Ichinose and Suzune Horikita and tries to charm them whenever he has the chance. He purposely refers to them by their first name after brief interactions and will take whatever chances to get close to them. For instance, he attempted to force Honami to rely only on him by entering a relationship with him as well as prolonging a hand shake with Suzune and looking at her tantalisingly. He has a reputation and aura of being a womaniser amongst the student body but despite that, some still views him in a good light.
Nagumo also has a tendency to be overconfident at times as shown in the Uninhabited Island Exam where he approached Kiyotaka Ayanokōji without any of his backup Free Groups in I2. Despite this, he is also shown to be calm and calculative as shown in the Mixed Training Camp where he conducted his plan without displaying arrogance nor confidence unlike his latter confrontation with Kiyotaka. Background
Nagumo was originally a Class B student when he first entered the school. Plot
In Volume 8, Nagumo made a bet with Manabu Horikita. He eventually lost their bet but successfully drove Akane Tachibana to expulsion (which was later negated) with the assistance of Momoko Ikari.[1]
In Volume 10, Nagumo tried to make a deal with Honami Ichinose to provide her with 4,043,019 private points. In exchange, Ichinose would have to date Nagumo. It was originally done to make sure Ichinose had enough points (20,000,000) so that she would not have to sacrifice a person to be expelled in The Class Poll special exam. However, this was thwarted by Kiyotaka Ayanokoji who came up with a substitute dealer in place of Nagumo.[2]
In Volume 1 of Second Year Arc, as said by Takuya Yagami, Nagumo was present in the creation of the bounty made by Acting Director Tsukishiro on providing 20,000,000 private points to the 1st year student who would be able to expel Kiyotaka Ayanokoji before the second semester.[3]
In Volume 2 of Seocnd Year Arc, Nagumo tried to make Fūka Kiryūin his ally but the latter rejected it.[4]
In Volume 3 of Second Year Arc, Nagumo took part in the Uninhabited Island Exam by employing the 'Free Group' strategy. He did this by commanding lower ranked 3rd year groups to monopolize the amount of points he and the other large groups of that year would get.[5]
In Volume 4 of Second Year Arc, Nagumo's large group consisting of him and students from his class including Nazuna Asahina placed an overall ranking of 2nd place in the Uninhabited Island Exam with a total of 325 points, 2 points behind 1st place Rokusuke Kōenji's small group and 64 points above 3rd place Arisu Sakayanagi's large group. The main reason for him not getting 1st place was Kiyotaka Ayanokoji who injured him in I2 which cost Nagumo to lose time. Afterwards, Nagumo ordered the 3rd year students to follow and keep tabs on Kiyotaka.[6]
In 2nd year volume 4.5, Miyabi wanted to get a revenge against Kiyotaka, when he saw Kiyotaka talking with Honami, Miyabi told Honami that Kiyotaka and Kei have been dating which Kiyotaka confirmed and this made Honami sad.
In 2nd year volume 6, He called Kiyotaka to talk with him and brought Honami to make Honami feel pain.
In 2nd year volume 7, Kiyotaka said he is going to need his help and wanted to help him. Miyabi said why should he help him, which Kiyotaka said if he helps him he might have a challenge with him but if Miyabi refuses Kiyotaka won't fight him anymore no matter who Miyabi do something. Miyabi threaten Kiyotaka that he will go after Kei, but Kiyotaka said it won't make any difference who he goes, Kiyotaka said it is true that he is strong but he can't protect anyone 24/7. Miyabi helped Kiyotaka in a way that Takuya got expelled.
In 2nd year volume 9, Miyabi got retired from being Student council president, Miyabi said he wants to have a challenge with Kiyotaka who will be student council president. There were two people who could take his place, Honami and Suzune. But Honami did not wanted to continue working in there and quit, so Suzune become president. Miyabi asked her to bring two students for Student council, A second year to take Honami's place and a first year to take Takuya's place. Miyabi said to Kiyotaka their challenge still remains.

Personality
Nazuna has rough mannerisms, but she is very well liked and influential within the 2nd years who is laid-back and playful, but she is also dutiful and never forgets to repay a debt made to her.

She possesses an amulet to which she cares for very much. She believes it to be an object of good luck, and it give her great mental strength when she has it on her. She claims it be a harbinger of destiny that not only watches over romance, but brings people together in a fated encounter.[2]

Nazuna's first appearance is in Volume 7. During her way back to the dorm, she was walking in front of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji when, after the call with Miyabi Nagumo, the current Student Council President, she slipped because of the icy ground, dropping her amulet. Kiyotaka picked it up and brought it to her dorm's security guard.
Later, during the Mixed Training Camp in Volume 8, she learned that Kiyotaka was the one who brought her precious amulet back. She felt a bit guilty that her words cause Kiyotaka to try confronting Miyabi. In her view, there is no chance of winning, so she provided information of Miyabi as compensation. Abilities
Trivia
According to the amulet event, Nazuna somehow hopes for Miyabi Nagumo's defeat, even though they are in the same class and have known each other for a long time. She spoke to herself after hanging up that Manabu Horikita, the previous president, disappointed her that he could not stop Miyabi from his reign. For the 2nd Year arc, when asked about her aspirations for the next year, Nazuna answered To stop the student council president's rampage... I suppose? I don't know what he's going to do If I let him roam free, right

Appearance
Atsuomi Ayanokōji Anime Appearance.png Atsuomi Ayanokōji's full appearance in the anime. Professor Ayanokōji is a middle aged man who looks to be in his 40s. Like his son, he has brown hair and has a more sterner look.
Personality
According to Chairman Sakayanagi, he has stronger ambitions than anyone and an unyielding and indomitable fighting spirit, despite having never possessed any special talent. That is the reason for his rise, to the extent that, at one point in time, he could move the country.[1]
Despite being proud of his son, Professor Ayanokōji only seems to value him more as a possession. He openly stated that he knew his son would not be fooled by a tactic showing signs of any fatherly affection. He also tried to command Kiyotaka to sign the withdrawal form. ADVERTISEMENT
Background
Professor Ayanokōji was said to be a commoner, who has never graduated from a top university or even possessed an outstanding athleticism. His former lover is also the same, and none of their relatives show any signs of remarkable abilities and talents.
Around 20 years ago, he established the White Room, an educational institution to raise a human and removing unnecessary things from their education, with the ultimate goal of creating generations of perfect individuals to lead Japan in the future.[1]
As told in Volume 7, there seems to be very minimal to no interaction between him and his son, Kiyotaka. Kiyotaka himself was seen as the most successful product of the White Room. However, when the institution was shut down for one year, he managed to escape, with the help of their butler, Matsuo.
Kiyotaka then went to the Advanced Nurturing High School. The school's chairman, Mr Sakayanagi, was an acquaintance of Professor Ayanokōji and holds him in high regards. While Kiyotaka wasn't on the school's admission list, Chairman Sakayanagi made an exception and approved him based on his own judgement. [2] ADVERTISEMENT Plot
He first appeared in Volume 7, when he came to Advanced Nurturing High School to call Kiyotaka back to the White Room. When Kiyotaka refused to return, he went saying that he will still bring him back to the White Room at any cost. [2] Trivia
The silhouette of Professor Ayanokōji can be seen in the ending of the 11th episode in the eyes of Kiyotaka. He appears in the opening intro, with his full face shown before his introduction
