The recent episode saw Ayanokoji standing out and becoming the most-voted person in his class. However, this sudden development was somewhat uncertain, and viewers were left with several questions after Classroom of the Elite season 3 episode 8.
Considering his personality, the protagonist getting so many praise votes was a big surprise. Even his classmates were not expecting this sudden progress from Ayanokoji’s side.
What is the Poll Special Exam?
Sae Chabashira introduced the Class Poll special exam. The school held this type of exam for the firs time. Furthermore, considering that no student has been expelled so far, this was well timed.
The exam works by allowing students to give praise or criticism votes to other students in their class and other classes. The rules are quite simple: The person who has the lowest vote will be expelled.
Students can save themselves from expulsion by gathering praise votes from other classes or using 20 million points.
How did Ayanokoji get the most praise votes?
Yamauchi join hands with Kushida and get into an agreement with Class A’s Arisu Sakayanagi to get Kiyotaka Ayanokoji expelled.
Several viewers who had been just watching the anime deduced that the person behind this miracle must be Arisu. They’re right, as this was revealed in Classroom of the Elite light novel series.
She promised to get Yamauchi praise votes from Class A. However, she uses her position as the class leader to get all those votes to Ayanokoji. This is because Arisu wishes to face Ayanokoji in the next exam. She believes that this exam was rigged to get him expelled. However, Arisu wishes to face him off in a proper battle. This is why she fabricated this plan to save him from getting expelled.
Audiences can catch the episodes of this season on Crunchyroll in both English dub and sub.
