Classroom Of The Elite (Novel) Vol. 11.5, the cutthroat school drama light novels that inspired an anime!
Students of the prestigious Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School are given remarkable freedom—if they can win, barter, or save enough points to work their way up the ranks! Ayanokouji Kiyotaka has landed at the bottom in the scorned Class D, where he meets Horikita Suzune, who’s determined to rise up the ladder to Class A. Can they beat the system in a school where cutthroat competition is the name of the game?

Despite the school’s tampering, Class C made it through the special exam without anyone being expelled. Now, they face the final event of their first year—the graduation ceremony. Horikita struggles to decide what to say to her brother before he leaves, while Ayanokouji puts in motion his plan to deal with Tsukishiro, seeking allies in the form of the other homeroom instructors. Meanwhile, his classmates’ suspicions about him grow—including one girl who might be getting a little too fascinated by him.
