Classroom for Heroes (2023) User Reviews

Disappointing

[meir_anolick · 5/10 · 30 October 2023]

It started with potential for a fun but stilly anime, but quickly degraded with regurtitated stereotypes such treating everyone as a potential friend despite clear murderous intent. It doesn't matter if it's a robot or an army of clones, it doesn't matter if they have no intention of doing anything but getting strong enough to murder the main character, nor does the fact that they've already made multiple murder attempts already, everyone is really a nice person and just wants to be their friend. Other notable problems are the harem-nature of the show and the fact that there's a limit to how stupid you can believe the main character to be.

It was a somewhat enjoyable watch, but I've no interest in seeing anymore.

A Madness not suitable for all audiences

Classroom for Heroes is one of those anime that make a revelation, and after watching them, you can better understand the anime.

Let me explain:

Anime, like other artistic expressions, has genres. One of the main ones is comedy.

However, after watching Classroom for Heroes, I realized that anime actually has two types of comedy. The first is the classic, which can be compared to the same comedy from TV series or movies. Examples? Ranma 1/2, Spy x Family, or One Punch Man.

However, there is another branch of humor in anime. I'll call it "Crazy Japanese Humor." What kind of comedy is this? This comedy is characterized by being crazy, illogical, and irreverent. To help the reader understand, I will give two examples that take the genre to the limit: Excel Saga or Dotto! Koni-chan.

In these anime, logic loses its meaning. The important thing is to be crazy, and there are no considerations to take it to the extreme. Other newer examples would be KonoSuba or Akiba's Trip. I invite the reader to compare the humor of any of these anime with Spy x Family, and you will realize that it is not enough to be funny here. You have to be crazy!

Classroom for Heroes is an example of this "Crazy Japanese Humor" genre, although obviously, it does not take the genre to the limit, definitely, its value lies not in telling a great story, but rather, in being crazy, irreverent, and making people laugh.

I make this introduction, dear reader, so that you know what we are talking about with this anime. There are no great mysteries, no great plot, but the value of this anime is not in that. The author neither tries nor seeks it. The important thing is to laugh, and guys, you will laugh a lot here.

Because this anime touches on a niche genre, it is not for everyone, but without a doubt, if you enjoy anime like Excel Saga or KonoSuba, you will find in Classroom for Heroes a good anime that will make your afternoons pleasant.

THE GOOD. You can forget about logic and just focus on laughing.

THE BAD. You laugh, but not that much. It's an average anime, far from masterpieces of the genre.

THE HIGHLIGHT. This anime has many characters, and I would say that all of them develop well. At first, I thought the author would not achieve it, but in character development, he definitely got a 10.

This Series Is Well Done

Let me start by saying this series is not going to be something that you have not seen before with respect to the story. The characters fit into the classic anime fantasy hero trope. There is a decent amount of early character development that helps you become invested in their progression but it is not to detailed. It's not Naruto by any stretch of the imagination. There is a lot... and I mean a lot of fan service but it not to over the top and the nudity is limited to vague nude shapes that are overly sexualised.

The main characters begin overpowered so that is a bit disappointing since you don't get to see the true progression of their hero's journey. The dialogue is good and the funny moments are interspersed in a way that doesn't take away from the story progression. Animation was very good but not necessarily next gen. All in all the series is entertaining and enjoyable. A solid 7 or 8 depending on your taste and experience with fantasy anime.
