If you are an avid anime fan, then it is likely that you have at least heard about Classroom of the Elite. The anime only recently released its second season. However, fans are already inquiring about the status of Classroom of the Elite Season 3. If you are one of those fans, we have good news! The light novel series received the green light for its renewal. Here is all the information you need to know about the upcoming installment to keep you in the loop.
The light novel series, written by Shogo Kinugasa, got adapted into an anime television series. It released its first season back in 2017. This received much appreciation from its audience, with fans eager for a follow-up season. The show managed to garner stellar ratings across the board. It has a 7.6 out of 10 IMDb rating. Further, it has a 7.9 out of 10 rating on MyAnimeList and a 4.6 out of 5 on Crunchyroll.
After some delays, the series finally got the green light for its renewal for a sophomore season. However, it took a solid five years for season 2 to release, which finally premiered in July 2022. Conversely, fans probably do not need to wait half a decade for a new installment of Classroom of the Elite.
Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Series Plot
The show is set in a futurist Japan where the government runs the Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing School. The school aims to mold its students so that each one of them becomes a competent and dedicated individual who can help the country thrive in the future. Each one of them has immense freedom to prepare its students for the real world. However, unchecked freedom leads to most of them having questionable morals and becoming quite predatory.
The story revolves around the life of Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, an introverted boy who mostly keeps to himself. He may not have a lot of friends but is intellectually gifted. Due to his quiet and naive nature, he cannot understand the cunning dynamics of the other students in the school and gets thrown into Class D -the most inferior of the grades. In Class-D, he manages to befriend Suzune Horikita and Kikyo Kushida. With these two by his side, Kiyotaka’s confidence finally improves, and he involves himself in multiple school activities.

There was an approximately 14-month time frame between the announcement of season 2 and its release. Therefore, it is likely that the third season may take just as long. A mid-2023 release date is most probable for this anime series. The first season had 12 episodes, and the second season is still ongoing. Hence, predicting how many episodes season 3 will hold is difficult. Nonetheless, we assume that the third installment would have about 12 episodes as well.
Season 3 Plot
As season 2 of the anime is ongoing, it is difficult to predict what Classroom of the Elite Season 3 may hold. Furthermore, the team has yet to announce the plot of the upcoming show. Although, since the anime follows the story of the manga series, season 3 would likely follow the same trend. As per reports, season 2 will explore the story until volume 8 of the manga. Therefore, the third installment is likely to continue the plotline beyond that.
Could There Be Future Seasons of Classroom of the Elite?
Statistically speaking, the simple answer to that is, Yes! The anime is receiving amazing reviews throughout. Consequently, fans may likely get more seasons beyond just season 3. If the show continues to receive the same ratings, there seems to be no reason for the team to cancel the show. Certainly, they have more than enough content in the manga for future installments.
