EPISODE REVIEWS

It's a strange but strong start to a new anime - one that feels right up my alley of weirdness. I think I'll like this.

Episode 1 of Assassination Classroom immediately stands out with its bizarre yet surprisingly emotional premise. Despite the absurdity of a superpowered octopus teaching a class assigned to kill him, the episode cleverly mixes comedy, action, and genuine heart. Koro-sensei’s chaotic energy makes the story entertaining, but what really hooks viewers is how quickly he begins caring for the students that everyone else looks down on. The episode sets up a strange but compelling story about growth, failure, and finding value in people others have given up on.

The story starts fast-paced as Koro-sensei, with Mach 20 speed, dodges Class 3-E’s assassination attempts. Unkillable yet acting as their teacher, he still appreciates every reckless effort from his students making it kinda heartwarming
