After defeating the Demon Lord, the great hero Blade finds himself on the brink of death. Though he miraculously survives, he loses a significant portion of his strength. Being stripped of his immense power frees Blade from the obligation of being humanity's savior. He chooses to spend his newfound freetime embarking on a new quest, making friends. Blade enrolls at Rosewood Academy, an institution that trains prospective heroes to become bonafide champions of justice. He quickly fits in, befriending his fellow classmates and helping them through the trials and tribulations on the path toward becoming a hero. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

From a comfy little slice of life series...to Classroom of the Elite wannabe Chuunibyou heroes? What the...? To speak of this series called Eiyuu Kyoushitsu a.k.a Classroom for Heroes, we need to go back into history just a teeny bit. Novelist Shin Araki is someone that most people would not recognise, though I did, and that's thanks to one of his works called GJ-bu a.k.a GJ Club, which started as a LN in 2010, then to Doga Kobo's Winter 2013 anime, which to this day, is still one of my low-key favourite anime of the 2010s that despite the dwindling numbers, had a lot of discussionback in the day. I loved and embraced GJ-bu for what it is, being primarily a school slice-of-life series with its etched comedy that wasn't forced on you, that despite so many unknown works done, GJ-bu would be Shin Araki's first series to capture sizable attention. Fast forward a few years later, and we get his 2nd biggest attention-grabbing work: Eiyuu Kyoushitsu a.k.a Classroom for Heroes, with the LN released in 2015 and its subsequent manga counterpart the year after. And it's safe to say that whatever Shin Araki has got planned out for this, it's going to be in the same vein as GJ-bu, but being in an action, fantasy setting that while wasn't new at the time, it was a series that doesn't take itself seriously (though it has its serious moments). This is certainly true when the anime was announced back in 2021 around this time, and it hearkened back to the old days of school-type fantasy traits where if the audience can jibe with whatever works, then it's guaranteed a success. So then, what's the story like for the series? In a nutshell, think of all of the "hero vs. demon lord" encounters of many series blemished within the past few years, then slot this one in for a countersolution to prepare for future conflicts. That's the resolution of the past hero who did this: the one simply called Blade, the Great Hero, who is capable of being objective, but lacks focus outside of that realm. He is summoned to help raise future heroes in this institution called Rosewood Academy, under the leadership of King Gilgamesh Soulmaker, though his clumsiness lands in straight on the trajectory of the top student of the academy: the Empress of Flames, Earnest Flaming. The conflict aside, Blade is in the academy for one sole purpose: to settle his daily life training heroes, as his title of the Great Hero is only known to the bare minimum of people. For starters, nowadays, you can tell a work by its tropes and gimmicks, and Eiyuu Kyoushitsu has already felt dated by the time the anime premiered about 8.5 years since the start of the LN. And while that has old, veteran anime weebs like myself calling it a nostalgia throwback to a time where we don't know much ado about the anime climate of the late 2010s, people who are either: new to anime; have been watching anime for less than 3 years; or have not explored past classics will not get the intentionality of authors like Shin Araki to just go ham on whatever works that progress both the story and plot. Which, in account of the anime, despite it following the LN, the pacing (as per the manga adaptation which is almost 1-to-1 of the anime) is indeed quite slow, but that's a testament to the content and free real estate of how much they're willing to commit to the act. And while most people have no monkey brains of understanding capability, I found some fun to be had through this show and its weird idiosyncracies of the past. Onto the characters: as aforementioned, Blade is the Great Hero of the past, but he's thw awful, dense type of character in the current day. And to the first girl that he faced, Earnest Flaming was no slouch for her "Empress of Flames" moniker, that she found herself evenly powered with Blade, though she quickly earns an affection for him...aside from getting friend-zoned most of the time. Sophie is next, and while she exhibits the standand kuudere type of character, she's effectively an android who simply can only follow commands, though she also gains a heart for Blade from being once programmed to eliminate the Great Hero, to one who becomes his most trusted ally. Soon, Blade earns other loli in the form of Cu Chulainn, formerly of the demon lord's daughter and a dragon that has nowhere else to go, but to reside together with the Great Hero to be taken care of like his own kin. The other classmates of Claire, Yessica (yes it's Jessica with a Y), Maria/Mao, Iona, Clay, Kassim, Leonard and Eliza, they're your typical bunch of wannabe hero classmates who can done goof, though with their various professions that help lend teamwork together as one. Also, despite this not being a romance series, Earnest and the girls all have affections for Blade, though he's just being dense, clueless and not even understanding common sense as a whack character. If you don't take this seriously, it's all fine and well, but character progression is not what you're here for in the first place. The rather small studio of Actas has largely vanished and has been lost to time since their days with the very impressive Princess Principal (which was a collab with Studio 3Hz) back in Summer 2017. Even with the acquisition of the studio by (formerly Sunrise) Bandai Namco Filmworks back in September of that year making the studio a subsidiary, other than Princess Principal, there hasn't been anything new from the studio, that is until 6 years later with this show. Don't get me wrong, this show is decently produced and doesn't look the best, but Actas has always felt like the studio that does in-between assistance works that may get them credited, but it's not like a huge affair as well, considering that the show is also produced mainly by Bandai Namco Filmworks as its main in-house production powerhouse. On the music side, VTuber Kaede Higuchi may had a decent start in AniManga with her debut song on Season 2 of 100-man no Inochi no Ue ni Ore wa Tatteiru a.k.a I’m Standing on a Million Lives (though I didn't really like that song), but in this show, I'm sad that her 2nd OP song of "Bravery? Naturally?" didn't really catch on to the mainstream, because this song is really very good and captures the tone of the anime well, even though I gave it a fair bit of flack when it first debuted. which slowly turned to one of my favourite OP songs of the Summer season. Akane Kumada's ED song is decent, and there are no complaints there, but it felt bland. Eiyuu Kyoushitsu a.k.a Classroom for Heroes, is a show that, as its title suggests, you should watch with the mindset of not wanting to take things seriously because like GJ-bu, it embraces goofiness and stupidity above all else other than the story and plot. If you can jive with that, then the show becomes more palatable to watch, at least to me. Otherwise, just find another show of your choice; there's always that.
If you told me that this season I would find 2 series which are basically shows that look like they were written in 2015 and that I would have them as some of my favourites shows in 2023, then I wouldn't believe you, but here we are, and while I had no plans on writting a review about Temple because I can barely think of what to say besides that "it was a very fun show", on the other hand there is Eiyuu Kyoushitsu. I'm not surprised by people being very negative about it, after all, it is basically one of those magic school haremseries that were the trend before isekais came around, and while watching the first episode I immediatly thought "this looks like it was written in 2015" and I was (not really) surprised to see it was, in fact, a light novel from 2015. But what exactly made me like Eiyuu Kyoushitsu? Well, because unike most of the light novels from those times, this one was actually fun to watch. The protagonist Blade gets to the school and asks some people to be his friends, because his goal is to have many friends, and the reason is because he was a hero that couldn’t live like an ordinary person at all so he wants to try it now that he doesn’t have those duties, but he is terrible acting normal because he has never experienced such thing, and that’s basically what the show goes about. Since this is a light novel, the format on which it works on is that a different girl has the spotlight for the adaptation of a volumen, and the very first moment we get to the school we see a speedrun of the tsundered redhead with fire powers with Earnest, the thing with her is that while her fire powers make her strong, they come from a sword with a demon inside which she couldn’t control and her hair became red because of it, over time she starts acting less tsundere-ish once the thing with her sword is solved, as the show basically deals with the kind of stuff you would see in these magic school series adding just some minor stuff. As per usual, there are a lot of female characters since, to no one’s surprise, this is also a harem series, girls like Sophie (whom I like to call a Rei Ayanami clone) or Maria (who is the daughter of the demon King Blade defeated in the past) and even a dragon loli are in here, and while their characters aren’t complex they can be fun to watch. I was even surprised when the minor characters that I thought wouldn’t matter at all, the ones that Blade first contacted in the school, actually reappeared across the series multiple times helping Blade on whatever he was doing and had some moments for themselves, even if some of them were as simple as being interested in a girl and wanting to do whatever to get her. I know this is going for the anime director because there's no way this kind of stuff is working into a written medium this easily, specially because many of them require visual cues, there are a lot of jokes that are references to different series and that is incorporated into the humour. There is some classic stuff like Shaft-like headtilts and Shokugeki no Soma's foodgasms, but the first time I was pleasantly surprised with these references is when I saw fricking Galeon from GaoGaiGar (a 90s show most people outside Japan don't even know) spouting water from its mouth in a mixed bathing to the point it was even recognized by that series' writer Yuuichirou Takeda in a Tweet, in another episode there is someone screaming "STAND ALONE COMPLEX" to name her plan of getting a soul into an android, and others that were easily recognizable like recreating the "Congratulations!" from Evangelion and the final scene of Ashita no Joe, this series has unironically better taste in anime than most anime fans I have seen. Aside from references to other series the comedy itself is solid, as while some scenes definitely look more exagerated than they should be, some others hit me just right. This is the kind of series that can change from having a big fight with a huge monster to a very heartwarming moment celebrating someone's birthday where he is happy for being born, basically think about what Spy x Family does but actually good, it just has this very nice atmosphere all around. Take for example this scene where the MC and the Rei Ayanami Clone decide to go on a date and, since both most definitely don't know how to have one since they are utterly unaware of how normal humans act, they proceed to have one of the most autistic dates I have seen in an anime, and I loved that shit, and by the end of the episode, where Sophie tells Blade her backstory, it ends in a more heartwarming note. However, this suffers from the same thing these adaptations used to suffer, obvious censorship in fanservice and bad animation. I mean, the animation in this series doesn't look good at all, it is barely animated at times and the characters aside from the main cast look like main characters from Boku no Hero Academia. And the censorship is obvious, the girls are literal barbie dolls, while I like the fact they aren't feigning they have nipples by hinding it under impossibly glued hair covering the breasts, it still looks kinda weird, and in other scenes like the mixed bathing? Would you really guess this series actually makes the girls wear bikinis instead of making them go naked? I don't know about the novel or even about the manga, but I'm sure you bathe naked. Eiyuu Kyoushitsu is actually something I had my doubts at the beggining, I mean, how I could not with magic school harems? They have been dissapointing me a long time, but after watching it for some weeks, it became one of my favourites shows of this season, being very fun despite its obvious flaws in production. Thank you for reading.
An anime with a great concept, about a great hero that has fallen from his power level after saving the world and then trying to live a normal life. The only issue is that it fails to deliver in showing any great plotlines. The concept of a great hero having to go to school after he lost his powers and then just want to live his life, can make for some exciting scenes. But it fails to show this, and instead often shows how the main character still can handle all enemies with a single hit. Which completely destroys the concept and possibilities for development. Soyou end up with a character that they say is weak, but still can do almost anything. If you look at all the side characters is there close to non character development, after they have been introduced. The side characters get an episode that shows who they are and has a small amount of development for them, but afterwards there is basically nothing. Which isn’t helped by the amount of side characters they introduced throughout the series. The only positive for the anime is the last two episodes, which actually shows something interesting. There is an actual plot, some sort of character development, and there is actually something on the line suddenly. But sadly is that not something that was shown through the rest of the season. So overall would i not recommend it, since it fails to deliver on an otherwise promising concept. Maybe if it gets a second season that follows the style from the end of the season, could it be something worth watching.
No way some of these mfs are saying this show was good, what are yall watching??? What other anime/media are you consuming to where you think something like this is good?? This is painfully average at most, pretty damn bad at least. None of the animation stood out, most of it looked like powerpoint slides, barely any fluidity whatsoever. The fanservice was mid at best, for a show this average, at least if they went all in on the ecchi, at least something would have stood out. The story was just nonexistent except for those last two episodes that actually had a storyline, everything else was just a “Whatcan we come up with randomly for these guys to do today?” The more we let these kinds of shows become acceptable, the more lazy shit we will get in the future.
10/10 Absolute definition of its so bad its good. This show does not take itself seriously. Trust me turn off your brain and watch this masterpiece. Story was unpredictable and chaotic. Don't try to power scale the characters. Very good dumb characters. Unrealistic. Honestly this is show was so peak. I couldn't help, but actually look forward to the next episode each week. Usually each episode had a standalone plot. I don't have anymore to say, but just watch it. I'm adding more words because myanimelist is making me. I don't get why I have to add another paragraph. yes
I am typically very much an enjoyer of very cliché, generic, isekai/fantasy trash animes. This one in particular though just has nothing going for it - with the only standout of this entire anime being the designs of the MC's potential harem. This anime tries to go the comedic and ecchi route (like most trash in this genre) for making itself stand-out, but the comedic moments are extremely childish slapstick kind of gags with the MC being a complete idiot 90% of the time and having 0 maturity throughout the series, despite him supposedly being the "Great Hero". The ecchi moments are simply fanservice with specificcamera angles, character poses and most of the characters getting their clothing shredded whenever the MC or an enemy launches a powerful attack. There's also - big shock - 2 or 3 kisses too - WOW! (/s). They try to explain the MC having 0 social understanding by having a small flashback segment of him being an abandoned child who had to kill to survive, but it's very quickly handwaved away, as that would clearly be too dark (and interesting) a plot-thread for this anime to bother exploring. Honestly, this anime could have been one of the "so bad it's good" types, akin to the likes of "Maou-Sama Retry!", or it could have gone super over-the-top comedic and ecchi, like "How not to summon a demon lord" - but no, it's just incredibly mediocre, which leaves it plainly and firmly in the "it's just bad" category for me. It wasn't unwatchable by any means, but I certainly wouldn't recommend watching it over anything else - even the other mediocre trash anime of "Am I really the strongest!?" that aired this season. Overall, I'm putting "Mixed Feelings", because maybe someone out there will be like me in their enjoyment of trash fantasy anime and have such low standards that this is enjoyable, but for me it's a 4/10 - It's just bad.
Eiyuu Kyoushitsu surprised me in many ways, but the real standout of the series is the titan that appears in the opening. Yes, he is the best character in the show, and here’s why! From the moment the titan appears in the opening, his presence is simply mesmerizing. He conveys a sense of power and mystery that makes you eager to see him possibly show up in the story. Even though he’s not directly involved in the main events, the titan symbolizes a force beyond what the protagonist Blade and his friends face in their day-to-day lives. He represents the promise of an epic and challengingworld, elevating the tone of the story before each episode even begins. The high-quality animation, combined with the titan’s intimidating design, makes him a memorable figure. The sense of grandeur and weight in his movements during the opening is so striking that it’s hard not to wish for an entire arc dedicated to him. It’s as if he is the “secret guardian” of the Eiyuu Kyoushitsu universe, a silent force that watches and waits, adding a layer of depth to the series. With a soundtrack that heightens the tension and perfectly complements his appearance, the titan becomes a symbol of Eiyuu Kyoushitsu's potential. Even without directly participating in the story, he reminds us that there’s more to the world of heroes than just academy life. In summary, the titan in the opening is a true work of art within the anime. For those looking for an experience that combines action, mystery, and an epic touch, Eiyuu Kyoushitsu delivers this masterfully, and the titan is largely responsible for that feeling. This anime is a gem for fantasy lovers and deserves to be watched and appreciated!
This is a light show, so it won't really make you want to see the next episode, but it's a good way to kill your time. This show hardly has a plot; each episode focuses on a single event, and the subsequent episodes will differ from the previous ones. The show has decent animation, good voice acting, and typical sound effects. I don't know when the source material was created, but based on the character design, you can assume it was created in the middle of the 2010s, which is not awful in and of itself. The bottom line is to watch this if you don'twant to interact or think about anything and simply want to enjoy it.
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 bybeing 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.
To me, it's alright. You know that feeling of-- you think it's cringey but you still watch it? Yeah, that's what I felt. To me, it was a little rushed and so fast phased, don't get me wrong I am the type of person who doesn't like a story that's way too dragged out and is just mainly story telling no battling, basically I like it to be fast phased but this one was different, it didn't have like an introduction to the next episode, like how others did where they'll show a clip of it on this episode and then that would be thenext episode. So I was usually confused as to what was happening hehe, it's kinda like those shows where it ends with a certain lesson and then the next episode is another different story, but nevertheless I was still entertained.
Let's summarize some points about what you will have to watch this anime. Points in favor. Good supporting characters, you know why they are there and their purpose; The premise is different, bringing a point that we don't usually see, especially in Isekai, a genre completely saturated in ideas. Mixed points. There is a slight ecchi throughout the story, if you like it you will have a little more interest in watching it, if you don't like it it won't bother you;Soundtrack is ok, it won't ruin a scene by simply not fitting and it won't enrich anything, simply ok. Negative points Rasa is the perfect definition for this story, as I mentioned before, the premise is worth it, but you feel it from the first episode to the last, I'm unsure whether it's an action anime or a slice of life; Mc weak in personality imagine the context in which you are the most powerful being in the universe but at all times you seem like a fool this is our MC; Screen time/Repetitiveness, this anime manages to make 12 episodes seem like 50, a lot of time that could have been better spent developing the plot or characters better is spent with absolutely nothing, conversations without purpose, plot convoluted and everything seems to culminate in the end a generic school fight, ok it's cool to see the first time but on the fourth time it becomes unbearable, practically every episode we don't have a fight and when we don't we practically have a filler episode in the quite. In short, this anime will only interest those who really like the genres in which it was tagged, and even then it won't be such a pleasurable experience.
Maybe it's because I’ve been slogging through a lot of bad anime recently (most of which have higher scores than this show, for some reason), but I think people are way too hard on Eiyū Kyoushitsu. There's a lot to like about this show that I feel goes under appreciated. [DISCLAIMER: I have not read the manga or light novel; This is based off of the anime alone] For starters, I really like the character designs (for the most part). My only main gripe in that department is Cu, because she's obviously pandering to "that" kind of audience. None of them are a feat of design,but they're all cohesive and nice to look at. It's also a personal bias because I love silly little cloaks, gloves, and hoods. The backgrounds (outside of the battle arena) are also much more detailed than other anime of this ilk. As an artist, I know how labor intensive scenery can be, and this show does a good job of putting detail into the little things, like the trim on a wall, design of a pillar, or wear and tear on a wall of bricks. It was very nice to see. As for the characters, they're fun to be around, or at least the core cast of Blade, Arnest, Cu, and Sophie are. The main 4 have the most defined personalities, Blade especially, which is a huge shock to me. I'm so used to power fantasy protagonists being blank slates, but Blade is dense, kind, and caring in a believable and consistent way. I also love that his relationship with Cu is strictly that of parent and child, no strings attached. The fan service is also handled a bit differently in this show in that most of the time the girls being sexualized just do not give a shit. There may be an offhand moment or two where they're embarrassed, but it feels more voyeuristic than exploitative. I would much rather characters at the hands of sexualization be into it or not care, instead of having their dignity stripped away, figuratively and literally, against their will to cater to people's power fetishes. It's not the most mature handling of sex in anime, it's still rather juvenile, but it's leagues better than other stuff I’ve watched. As much as I enjoy this show, the middle batch of episodes are a HUGE SLOG as each one feels like a vehicle to introduce yet another girl into the harem that sticks around for no reason. All these characters could’ve been very compelling if they had the time dedicated to them, and I think that's where everyone gets pissed off. They expected a plot driven fantasy, but instead got a slice of life comedy. These characters may be fun, but they aren’t enough for the drag of the middle episodes. It's bad when you can cut episodes and characters entirely and not lose anything. That's really the biggest negative. Eiyū Kyoushitsu got a couple genuine laughs out of me, but it's way too reliant on tropes to grow into itself. Give it a watch if you want some popcorn, but skip it if you want substance.
Obviously this wasn't a top tier show, but I had a lot of fun watching it. To be honest I don't really have anything else to say about this anime besides it being a pretty generic but silly and fun anime to watch. But hey, if it's fun to watch then I'd say it was good and worth the watch. Of course, not everyone's gonna like this since it is a pretty generic story after all. Protagonist is overpowered and goes to a school where students will one day become strong just like the "Great Hero" and wants to have a pretty normal life. And don'tforget the cliches, comedic gags, and fanservice which are definitely here in the anime, but at least they're not always up in your face about it. Hell even in the bath scenes where MC is taking a bath with a bunch of girls, all of whom are nude (including the MC), the characters point out he's like 5 year old because he doesn't act any different to them if they're naked. So at least we aren't getting those bad "whoopsie the male protagonist walks into a room of nude girls and it's an accident" cliché or troupe. The anime also doesn't take itself too seriously since it's mostly comedy a comedy anime, and the comedic gags don't prolong their stay either (including the reoccurring gags). As for the art style and animations I would say it's nothing special, but in a good way. Because compared to something like demon slayer it's nowhere near that level, and compared to the bad animations of boruto it's so much better since it's actually animated.
"CLASSROOM FOR HEROES" Genre- Action, Fantasy, Ecchi, School. Sick of his life as the 'Great Hero', Blade now lives as an ordinary high school student at 'Rosewood Academy'. Hiding his past from all the students attending the academy, Blade aims to make everyone there his friend and live out a completely ordinary and subtle life. Notwithstanding that someone's past doesn't leave them completely, this anime brings to us a story about an overpowered hero now turned ordinary and his new high school life. Classroom For Heroes is set in a time when the concept of human civilization has been far lost in time and now the world feelsmore like an evolved version of the Earth where humans & other beings can use magic and supernatural powers. A fantasy anime that tells us the tale of a hero who has performed his duty and now lives life his way after the war has been won. From the get-go, this is an anime that really captivates you. Not only does the anime have an interesting plot but it also brings nice animation and cliche scenes, which makes this an anime perfect for some getaway. While it may have the same overpowered plot about an MC, it still manages to take your mind off things with its chaotic epilogues and hilarious confrontations between the characters. It has a decent load of ecchi mixed in it, but not in a way that diverts your mind off to different fantasy lands. Not only does the anime feel like a much-needed breather from all the chaos that succumbs us in daily life, but it also has room for further improvement in the coming times. With a better persona development for each character and small changes to its epilogues, this anime definitely has the potential to keep continuing. This anime is recommended for every "FANTASY" anime lover.
Eiyuu Kyoushitsu is a lighthearted comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously. Short on plot and character development, the series relies on hooking viewers with its comedy, in which it mostly succeeds. Although a few jokes become repetitive as the series progresses, the introduction of new characters injects freshness into the narrative. Many of these characters embody various humorous archetypes, ensuring that the anime remains entertaining. There is an attempt to add heartfelt moments, with several episodes that are more dramatic, but the lack of stakes doesn't leave them with a lasting impact. Overall, Eiyuu Kyoushitsu is an above-average comedic fantasy series that is enjoyableto watch but ultimately forgettable.
