"Assassination Classroom" is an anime that stands out as a masterpiece in my heart, embodying the perfect blend of humor, warmth, and profound storytelling. From the outset, the premise of a yellow, tentacled creature threatening to destroy the Earth unless he is killed by his students might sound bizarre, but it's this very eccentricity that crafts the anime's unique charm.
Koro-sensei, the unkillable teacher with a heart of gold, is the centerpiece of this narrative, offering both laughter and life lessons in abundance. His relationship with Class 3-E, a group of underdogs, is not just about assassination attempts; it's a journey of growth, self-discovery, and overcoming personal challenges. The show masterfully balances its comedic elements with emotional depth, making you laugh one moment and tearing you up the next.
What truly sets "Assassination Classroom" apart is its ability to weave significant life lessons into its narrative seamlessly. It touches on the importance of compassion, the value of hard work, and the power of believing in oneself. Each character, no matter how initially trivial, is given a moment to shine, showcasing their development and the impact Koro-sensei has on their lives.
Moreover, the anime's animation and soundtrack beautifully complement the story's tone, enhancing the emotional and comedic beats. The opening and ending themes are catchy and resonate with the anime's overarching themes of hope and determination.
In conclusion, "Assassination Classroom" is not just an anime; it's an emotional rollercoaster that teaches us about the importance of connection, the teacher-student bond, and the journey to becoming better individuals. It's a heartwarming, hilarious, and ultimately unforgettable experience that I firmly believe to be one of the best anime of all time. Whether you're an anime aficionado or a newcomer to the medium, this is one class you won't want to skip.

This show offers a much more unique experience than most of the shonen animes, or shows in general. It is a flurry of different genres, all compiled into a surprisingly good mould. AC has some slice of life elements, comedic moments that fit the situation perfectly, great quality fight scenes and a deep and good character development, which contrasts to the outwardly simplistic plot.
But you have to actually see the show, before you blindly rate it. There was some guy who was complaining about the 'cheesiness' of the show, but what do you expect? It's a show centered around highschool characters, and honestly, AC is deeper than a lot of anime I've seen. There's also a good reason behind the man character's apparent 'girliness', which is very well explained in later episodes.
Season 1 sort of has a lighter feeling around it, and focuses on fun stuff, for lack of better words. Season 2 is a shade darker, with better tension, conflict and much more action.
The best part about this show is the lack of filler, and the fact that the it can match any mood you're feeling with what happens on screen. Overall, currently I name AC as the best comedic anime I've seen, which still retains a serious larger plot.

When I watched the final episode, I just stared at my screen for some time. I was left with tears in my eyes, and that's something that has never happened before when I watched anime.
You know what the thing is, this anime has overall little characters starring in it. So it's very easy to care for all of them. And boy, did I care.
Ansatsu Kyoshitsu is about an assassination class, the E-class, who has to kill their teacher. Their teacher has already destroyed the moon, and is about to destroy earth as well. So, as to keep him a state secret, they give the E-class a chance of killing him. I thought this plot to be very strange and appealing. But when I watched the first episode, it was really really strange. But when you get passed that, the appealing part starts. And when you're passed the second episode and you kinda get what's going on, you won't be able to stop watching. The students grow and try out plans to kill their teacher. As the series progresses, they all develop their own skill, which allows the viewer to get to know each and every one of those students. And I really loved them. Especially Nagisa.
The anime itself never gets boring. It is funny, very emotional and it even has plot twists you didn't see coming. It has it all. Lovely characters, romance, bloodlust, secrets, tense music,... Overall, it stays with you.
The lingering and final idea the anime gave me, was that killing isn't easy. It may seem so at the beginning of the series, but it isn't. Not just because of all the planning and the risk of your own life. But because those students got in way too deep. They were too involved. And it is because of that, that this anime is so strong. It wouldn't have been if they followed one of the random assassins the government hired.
I think I'm gonna watch them all again tomorrow.

Assassination classroom deserves a genre of it's own. I honestly can't put it in anything specific, but it was so good. I expected a quirky comedy and fun, and season 1 is indeed that, but season 2 pushes the pedals to max.
Some years later and I've finally watched this masterpiece - and I regret to say it should have been done much sooner. It's something special, something we can all learn from. Now, a few hours after finishing it and still thinking about it I can say I'm sad, but I absolutely loved every second of it and I'd watch it again for the first time again and again.
Episode 25 is probably some of the most heart wrenching thing I've seen in an anime, for all of the 28 names shouted I was just dying inside. A masterpiece and hats of to everyone who pulled it together. I don't know when almost 50 episodes went by, but it was an incredible experience and I'm deeply grateful for it.

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