Did Classroom of the Elite Get Much Worse or Are We Being Prepared for Something Big?

Viewers are unhappy with the poor quality of Episode 4.

Classroom of the Elite (Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e) spoilers ahead!

Summary:

  • Episode 4 was recently released and many have noticed a sharp decline in the quality of Classroom of the Elite.
  • An integral part of Classroom of the Elite Season 3 was the beautiful visuals and improved animation.
  • Some even suggested that Lerche had outsourced the episode.

Classroom of the Elite has become so popular and successful that it is now releasing its third season. The creators made an interesting psychological drama with a lot of harem anime fans.

The first episodes were not perfect, but they cannot be called a failure either, rather the beginning of Season 3 was a logical continuation of the title with its inherent strengths and weaknesses.

Viewers especially liked the new, more elaborate animation and the beautiful visuals. However, Episode 4 was recently released and many have noticed a sharp decline in the quality of the series.

Logical continuation

The first episodes of the third season were less than successful — many viewers familiar with the source material experienced pacing problems. An entire volume of the light novel was told in two episodes, and many scenes were skipped (including the long-awaited scene in the men's room).

Another notable problem was the abundance of new characters — many complained about being forced to google information to remember connections between characters.

However, a major benefit of Season 3 was the beautiful visuals and improved animation — the details were more elaborate and the colors were brighter. In terms of content, Season 3 is still the same story of class rivalry at an elite school and the behind-the-scenes play of a brilliant protagonist.

Although some have noticed that Ayanokouji has softened and no longer fits the image of the cunning manipulator he used to be — many acquaintances turn to him for advice and consider him their friend.

Despite some minor flaws, Season 3 was quite satisfying to viewers, but Episode 4 spoiled the impression — viewers noticed a significant deterioration in animation and graphics. Some even suggested that Lerche, the studio responsible for the adaptation, had outsourced the episode to a third party.

In fact, the episode looks less rich and colorful compared to the previous ones. The creators didn't even animate the lip movement under the mask in the scene where Ayanokouji visits Ichinose.

Maybe the assumption is right, because the episode is not so important for the plot, but rather entertaining and dedicated to Valentine's Day. Lerche is probably preparing for more important events, namely the final exam of the first year, which is mentioned several times in the anime.

The creators want to show an epic conclusion to the story, so the possibility of a third person being responsible for Episode 4 is extremely high.
