Classroom of the Elite is yet another anime where the MC seems to be smarter than most of our world leaders and the student council has more power than a government. As per usual with these kinds of anime they are very over the top but undoubtedly heavily enjoyable despite the ropy and absurd plot.
I really enjoy the show, as I often do with anime I think the fanservice is a tad too much, moreso in Season 1, but it improved in this aspect in the second season.
The show is certainly enjoyable for people who like manipulative characters, a bit like Johan Liebert from Monster or Kategiri Yuuichi from Tomodachi Game, and despite most other characters being rather stagnant and bland or unlikeable and way too evil for a highschooler, this achieves the effect it aims for by making Ayanokoji way more likeable. I enjoy the worldbuilding of the academy and the idea of a "points system" which it introduces makes it a very nice blend between a Drama and Highschool anime. I also like how you may sometimes take a step back from conventional school concepts and see the characters engage in a more real-world activity.
Overall, the show is really fun to watch, I've also heard good things about the Light Novels so they'd probably have my recommendation as well. Overall around 7.8/10 but we'll up it to an 8 for IMDB!
