Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 2 Recap
Fresh off their promotion to Class 1-C, Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and his friends participate in an irregular exam that sees them travel to a remote mountain retreat. Quickly separated into two groups divided along gender lines, the former students of Class 1-D discover just how much the events of the previous season’s final episodes have changed the other students’ perception of them.
Leveraging the fearsome reputation he gained after his brutal confrontation with Kakeru Ryūen, Kiyotaka spends most of his time combing the assembled student body for potential allies and enemies. Tensions also flare up between Suzune Horikita and Kikyō Kushida, with Kikyō coldly shooting down Suzune’s attempts to establish an alliance.
While Rokusuke Kōenji tries to needle the students of Class 1-C into a fight, the class manages to make it through their first day of training with little trouble. However, Arisu Sakayanagi makes it clear to Kiyotaka that she plans to deliver on the threat she made toward him at the end of the previous season, and Suzune’s older brother also drops a hint that the Student Council president, Miyabi Nagumo, is plotting against Class 1-C.
