Summary of Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e (Room of the Elite Class)
The Metropolitan High School for Advanced Education, funded by the government to educate a new generation, brings together Japan’s brightest young people on one campus. In this seemingly perfect institution, the reserved Kiyotaka Ayanokouji enters as a new member of the 1-D class, where he befriends one of his classmates, the antisocial Suzune Horikita. At first, his classmates revel in the relaxed lifestyle of the academy, taking advantage of all the state-of-the-art facilities.
Very soon, however, the facade of the Urban High School for Higher Education gives way to its true nature: only the classes with the best grades can fully use the school’s offer, and class D is the one further from that status. In Class D, which is at the bottom of the hierarchy, are all the “worst” students in the school. After this rude awakening, Ayanokouji, Horikita, and the rest of Class D must overcome their differences and take other classes in order to somehow disguise their position in Class A.
