Thinking back to that presentation in the library makes me smile. What started out as three high school boys skipping class turn

ed out to be the most significant event in our lives. If we had made it to the gym that day instead of the library, more than likely the streets would have swallowed us in the next few years. We never would have become doctors. Everything we needed to start on the road to success was included in one forty-five-minute presentation. And we almost missed it.
—We Beat the Street,
Sampson Davis et al

Alexandra [31]

Answer: Sorry if its a little long if you want to watch teh series of it heres the title "Classroom of the Elite"

In the distant future, the Japanese government has established the Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing School, dedicated to instruct and foster the generation of people that will support the country in the future. The students are given a high degree of freedom in order to closely mimic real life.

The story follows the perspective of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, a quiet and unassuming boy who is not good at making friends and would rather keep his distance, but possesses unrivaled intelligence. He is a student of Class-D, which is where the school dumps its inferior students. After meeting Suzune Horikita and Kikyō Kushida, two other students in his class, Kiyotaka's situation begins to change and he starts to get involved in many affairs, and his thought of ideal normal high school life begins to get scattered.

Characters

Class-D Students

Kiyotaka Ayanokōji (綾小路 清隆, Ayanokōji Kiyotaka)

Voiced by: Shōya Chiba[3] (Japanese); Justin Briner (English)[4]

The main protagonist is an unmotivated student and is very poor at communicating with others. His grades are intentionally average and he is very conscious of how he spends his points. It is revealed that he has the academic aptitude and true intellect to make it to the top class if he wanted to, but for some reason, he aimed to get into Class-D. It was mentioned by Chabashira Sensei that he intentionally got 50 out of 100 points for every subject on the entrance exam. Despite not exhibiting any kind of fitness regimen, he's incredibly well-built and is seen as very skilled in martial arts, such that he held his own in a fight against the Student Council President. He is also shown to be extremely intelligent as he comes up with various grand schemes that fool and use almost everyone in the school. In a flashback, it is shown that he was part of an experiment performed by an unknown organization which is owned by his father, in an unknown facility called the "White Room" that forced children to participate in an immense battery of tests designed to raise and train children into teens with almost superhuman-like capabilities and he's shown to be the only known survivor. He prefers to stay in the background and use other people to implement his plans whenever necessary. He is considered an unreliable narrator due to his mysterious background and lies.[5][6]

Suzune Horikita (堀北 鈴音, Horikita Suzune)

Voiced by: Akari Kitō[3] (Japanese); Felecia Angelle (English)[4]

She is an aloof, cold-hearted, and unfriendly student, who is considered to be an intellectual beauty that sits next to Kiyotaka in class and is also careful about how she spends her points. Like Kiyotaka, she has trouble communicating with others but unlike him, she thinks friends are unnecessary. Kiyotaka is the only student in her class that she talks to and confides in him as she seems to express interest in his insightful yet mysterious personality and has her doubts about him and his mysterious past, believing that he is hiding much more than he actually lets on. She also has an older brother who studies in the same school as her and is the school's Student Council President who distances himself from her due to the embarrassment that she is placed in Class-D. She also has knowledge of martial arts, as she was seen fighting Mio Ibuki, a Class-C student and held her own against her, despite being ill at the time. Her attitude seemingly improves for the better as she acknowledges her own hypocrisy by admitting that she is no different from her classmates when faced with a serious down-sided problem.
