So we get a clear answer to Ayanokoji’s motives. Considering how this feels like an inflection point in the story, and with Horikita’s arc being essentially complete imo, it feels like it’s time to address the elephant in the room: Ayanokoji is broken af.

I’m probably going to start reading the source material once the anime is done airing. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen.

I have complicated feelings about this show. I really do like it, but there are several aspects of it that I really dislike, or that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It’s not bad enough to ruin the entire show in my opinion, but it’s still always at the back of my mind when I watch the show.

The first year of Ayanakoji’s education at this school ends, and because they lost to Class A, and Ryuen’s Class D defeated Ichinose’s Class B, our protagonists been demoted back down to Class D.

The 3rd year class graduates, and with it Manabu Horikita, finally cutting the cord between himself and his younger sister Suzune.

This episode felt like the end of a beginning, with big changes for the next school year to be revealed in the next and final episode.
