[Official Translation]
+
Still unable to become a bird
+
The butterfly flaps its wings Almost breaking off
+
I waited, tongue sticking out
+
Welcome to the world of gamesmanship
+
The clouds flowed by I took on a fighting spirit
+
The symbols are strewn as in an anagram
+
Between skepticism and affection
+
Who is the ruler?
+
War is declared, frontlines move
+
Ingenious scheme and strategy
+
Fearlessness and cowardice in jest
+
Overture to the collapse
+
A play of white puppets
+
A sense of emptiness loops Versatility is constraining
+
"Did you think you'd be A convenient bullet?"
+
A brilliant maneuver, always alone
+
Victory or defeat, meritocratic
+
With struggle, an incompetent human's
+
Destiny can change
+
Just defy the numbers and common wisdom
+
And let's go beyond the light
+

Through the cracks of your mask
+
With ambition, I told you a lie
+
A refined clean image
+
Is live bait for a battle of rivalries
+
The end is approaching
+
Count the carcasses
+
"Hey, is this all right?"
+
The pendulum swings Revisions based on mixed reception
+
Without realizing it You're living like a decent human being
+
Past and future Days passed as we chose the means
+
And we lived as travelers
+
In a room called Earth Beyond the dancing game
+
Sacrifice accompanies happy endings
+
If it's the dream you want Then seize everything
+
The collective defeated the individual The individual became a collective
+
Change your destiny

English Title: Classroom of the Elite
Also Known As:
- Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e (TV)
- Classroom of the Elite II
- Classroom of the Elite III
- Season 4: April 1st, 2026
- Season 3: January 3rd, 2024
- Season 2: July 4th, 2022
- Season 1: July 12th, 2017
Koudo Ikusei Senior High School appears to be a utopia on the surface, offering students unparalleled freedom and boasting a high rank in Japan. However, the harsh reality reveals a less-than-ideal situation. The student body is divided into four classes - A through D - each ranked according to merit, with only the top classes enjoying preferential treatment.
Kiyotaka Ayanokouji finds himself in Class D, the category for the school's perceived underachievers. There, he encounters the reserved Suzune Horikita, who believes she landed in Class D by mistake and aspires to climb to Class A, and the seemingly friendly class idol Kikyou Kushida, whose goal is to forge numerous friendships.
While class assignments are permanent, class rankings are not; lower-ranked students have the opportunity to rise by outperforming those in higher classes. Furthermore, Class D operates without restrictions on the methods students can employ to advance. In the competitive environment of this cutthroat school, can they overcome the challenges and ascend to the pinnacle?
