nah its more like a death note thing. its like a part of the trio. Death note, code geass and Classroom of the elite. very psychological

[@mdasifurrahman5967]

Plz watch (handyman Saitou) opening song❤️🔥💥

[@humanoidfrog4645]

not really slice of life at all

[@joaocavalcanti1950]

It's not about romance, it's about competition, manipulation, and physical violence from time to time, anyway, I highly recommend it.

well actually it is romance just not what people will think of

Classroom of the elite is like a wolf in sheeps clothing. It seems innocent at first glance, but it's actually a psychological thriller.

Exactly 😂

[@ZeroShrimpy]

WOW i remember watching this anime like "i guess i watch this one i since i have nothing else to watch some school rom-com anime" but later on this anime hit so hard phycological now it's on my top anime list.

EXACTLY this was one of the animes i watched before taking a break for a year and this was fantastic.. i literally randomly found it on kissanime together with assasination classroom nd i think seven something something

[@SaberTooth_TFG]

Classroom of the Elite, Tomodachi Game, Death Note and TPN S1 are some of my favourite thriller animes. They’re all so damn good (Tomodachi Game Manga and COTE LN are way, way better than their anime adaptations, though).

[@greatteacheronizuka]

spitting facts

[@Luxius.]

yup!, anime adaptations often downgraded a series

[@willm772]

Obviously objectively and factually correct.

[@mutdd3954]

eh... for someone who likes to watch anime more than read light novels, it's fine for them to just watch the anime. I watched the anime and read the light novel up until where the anime leaves off and I really don't find a big difference. Sure, LN is a bit better but for someone who likes to watch anime over reading, there is no reason for them to read the LN before watching the anime.

[@isaiascanete6651]

Please check Kaiji Ultimate Survivor. It hurts me that people talk about best/favorite thrillers and my boy Kaiji is out, he deserves it T_T

Ending 1 is actually not from Minami, but from Minami Kuribayashi, but as you noted, she's also a great singer!

[@hoshishoujo3726]

Yeah, I though it wasn't the usual style of minami

the second minami does not have as much presence as the original but without a doubt she is a good singer, she also sings my favorite DxD op :v

@@GOTGames Please don't watch the anime, the anime makes you misunderstand the main character a lot more then you can imagine, I reccomend you to read the original material, the light novel.

It's simular to death note, where the mc is incredibly skillful and stratigic with everything he does. Hes a badass that doesn't care who he hurts, and will manipulates people to get what he wants.

[@psychomasterz5079]

COTE [without spoilers] I wouldn't just call it slice of life anime as there are a little bit of everything BUT the biggest one is what I would call "Mind Games" and romance and little bit of cheeky [I guess] it is a bit dark too . So the main point of this show is it has 4 sections of each year . From A to D and A-Class is known as the best class meanwhile D-Class is the bottom class . This is basically not just a small school BUT a whole community under the school . It was made for all the most intelligent or special students so they are invited here to come and study . The biggest thing here are the "points" . There are two types of points one points system makes the point system of Class A to D rank and the other is for a persons own personal use . As the whole school is like a community , and basically in this community ANYTHING can be bought by points , students are given their own personal points based on their results and stuff from which they buy basically ANYTHING . BUT be careful on how u spend your points is another important thing . Note that its not only studies through which a classes points are increased or decreased but rather many events may happen through out the year in which a student maybe able to gain more points for themselves or with the class as whole so they can rank up and get promoted to Class-A , B or C depending on which rank they are on . It is a very interesting show . I haven't read the light novel yet but people say it is way more interesting .

[@rolandmeixner4413]

I am very happy you finally checked CotE openings out. They are amazing. The anime is also very good, and I would describe it as psychological. I can´t wait for season 3 coming out in summer, hopefully with another banger from ZAQ. Hope you check out Summertime Rendering openings soon, I highly recommend them.

[@tintillor]

Zaq has awesome openings all over the anime spectrum. One of my favorites are the love chunibyo & other delusions openings. I don't remember if you reacted to them. Another one that's good is the one they made for Highschool DxD (I don't know if you will ever react to that one considering it goes past cheeky into the realm known for nipple showing lol)

[@GOTGames]

I kinda want to react to it just because I think it'll be funny... Maybe one day 🤔

[@kamuyking551]

I'm actually not familiar with Classroom of the Elite... which is rare, for one of these to go by that I know nothing about. I really liked the songs, especially that last ED! still recommending Dorohedoro... god I wish the polls for these were on youtube sometimes, I just can never make it to the twitch streams, I'm always busy whenever they're happening. also, just randomly wanted to say... I'd been behind on Vinland Saga for a bit and tried to do some catching up today. I made the mistake of trying to binge it, got through like 5 episodes, cried multiple times per episode, and gave myself a headache that knocked me out until mid afternoon. considering watching more. its such a deeply good show... season 2 is working with the material that season 1 left to it with such efficacy and grace, it's legitimately hard to believe how much it's nailing it. I think my favorite non-spoiler thing I can say for season 2 is that the ending song is really important to it. it's like this lovely little refrain that punctuates each episode by bringing you back to the core of everything. no matter what happens, that emotion continues, repeating and repeating, because it is the absolute most important thing. but rather than hammering it in, it sings to you, soft, like a lullaby. I'm just so glad the creators of the anime made this choice. sorry for the wildly off topic rant, but I'm just really enjoying my time with this anime, and I felt the need to say it somewhere.

[@smithy3950]

You need to react to oshi no ko ending it’s an absolute banger

[@fabiospar]

6:59 Well.. it's a different Minami from the one you are thinking of. I honestly didn't know the singer of classroom of the elite's 1st ending, so I did a quick search and it's a female singer named 'Minami Kuribayashi'

[@esrohm6460]

i love how in the first opening you can play the game of how many languages do you recognize and even further how many can you read of all the text flying by but continouing with zaq, kouya no kotobuki hikouta has a great opening song from zaq in sora no ne

[@mutdd3954]

I really like this anime. The MC is REALLY interesting. My fav type of stories are complex stories with psychological and philosophical themes, that’s why attack on titan is my fav. But this show also has some of that so I def recommend it

[@sunnyho2066]

Actually that wasn't the Minami you know, but Kuribayashi Minami. She debuted in 2002 and for some reason between 2016 and 2019 she changed her stage name to just "Minami". She sung for some well known Anime Infinite Stratos, Hataraku Maou-sama!, Tales of Zestiria the X, Fate/Kaleid Liner, and more. As for ZAQ you've heard her singing in the Shokugeki no Soma (Food Wars) before. She has sung for a lot other well known Anime, like Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai, Trinity Seven, Hibike! Euphonium, Also YouZitsu is indeed about a school where they "fight" with points to come on top of the others by using their wits. It's very psychological/thriller orientated. Definitely an Anime worth to watch! It also still has a 3rd season to come (2nd and 3rd season were simultaneously announced).

[@GOTGames]

I'll definitely have to check out more from them all 💯💯🤯

[@thecowofficialgaming6614]

I honestly really want you to react to the anime as well, it's probably one of my favorite animes.

[@jaysolo8256]

Definitely a must watch within the anime community

[@GGCannon]

This is an interesting one. It's a school slice of life, but it is more of psychological thriller in a sense, where it is about an extreme competition in order to become elite of the elite. It is a more serious story and the target audience is "Seinen" which means its the same target audience as "Death Note" which is more mature and deals in more serious topics.

[@light8258]

I think this might be something for your Twitch watch-alongs, it's not that popular, but the plot is full of twists and very gripping.

[@kenmakazoo7262]

you should definitely also check out the ost for classroom of the elite. It's really unique and iconic

[@andrefardyansyah5892]

if you like Death Note, this one is a must watch for you and also 3rd season is gonna come out this year

[@GOTGames]

💯

[@celeschan90]

Not romance, but a special school where students earn points that "can buy anything". It has that cat-and-mouse + insane plan aspect that you enjoy from Death Note. This is actually quite a good anime. One I'm sure you would enjoy.

[@dakromexv]

Classroom of the elite is my favorite anime , now i don t know if you are going to enjoy this ,but this anime has a unique plot and the main character is the thing that made me love this anime and put it on top 1 (i watch a lot of anime)

[@sorbetbabsy]

this show is... something, i first watched season one and felt really mixed on it with it having such an interesting mystery but messing up a fair amount of stuff so i decided to read the original light light novel series, within a week of catching up to where season one ended season two got announced but i decided to continue reading because the books had honestly blown the show out of the water already by that point. season two was really good (especially given that the first season had made some fairly major changes to the plot) but still could not honestly hold a candle to the peaks of the story found in the original series. if the idea of reading 20+ 200 page novels is enough to steer you away from the series as a whole then go ahead and watch, theres a lot of fun to be had. but i find it really hard to recommend this show when you have to endure to baggage that comes along with it (specifically season one). the books will most likely continue to go on for a few more years and with how long it already is i dont really see anime only viewers getting a satisfying ending. if it is between watching and never experiencing this story then go ahead, despite my problems with the show the last episode of season one convinced me to read it and it has become my favourite piece of media, in any form, and there is the chance the show can do the same for you.

[@자작]

Op 2 - Dance in the game is my favorite song! 🎵 Thank you for reaction

[@RadiantWaveX]

Seeing the MC's mask honestly brought back memories of openings for Darker Than Black and Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom if anyone even remembers that second one lol. You'd probably enjoy openings from both.

[@cesarvaca6179]

If you want to hear more from ZAQ, I would recommend you listen to the Trinity Seven ops, one from anime and two from movies, although only the anime one has animation, because in my opinion they are great songs and ZAQ is one of the best singers and with more trajectory in the anime industry she has sung several songs from different anime throughout history she is a professional in terms of Openings

[@LckD008]

Gekijouron from DxD S2 as well

[@Cryptcat0]

I highly recommend this show. Although it gets quite a bit of critic of its edginess, I just really like the phycological elements and it really makes you think.

[@kegale5538]

Another amazing song by ZAQ is the opening to Trinity Seven. I would highly recommend watching that op.

[@lycanthrophy7182]

Knight's & Magic is a fun anime with a catchy opining i've probably re watched it 100 time giant mechs fighting massive monsters no more needs to be said

[@CocogoatMemes]

The show is amazing. Its basically a summary of one of the best Light Novels and I really recomend checking it out someday. The endings are also just as good as the openings

[@_para.dox_]

Highly recommend it for Friday slots. This has got some awesome characters. It is along with Tomodachi Game, DeathNote and Monster. They are all my favourite in thriller.

[@crimsonhawk52]

ZAQ also wrote the endings (which would then be performed by the cast) for Non Non Biyori, which is one of my fav shows all time. Super super chill and wholesome comedy about some cute girls in the countryside. Having grown up in a small town in the country, makes me very nostalgic.

[@Engineering_is_fun_they_said]

This is the only Light Novel I've ever read and I loved it. It's about a genius MC who acts from the shadows and manipulates people. He enrolls into the mosy prestigious school that is unlike any others. It has special exams which determine your entire class' ranking (A-F). If you graduate from class A you can get any job in the world. So basically this is about an inhumanly overall strong MC and how he gets whatever outcome he wants while being unnoticed. For ppl who read the novel, do you remember the clash between the 2 T-rexes?

[@misterm7486]

Man you need to watch this. its not very gory but it is probably the greatest new gen ever. fucking awesome

[@Phantom_373]

When I saw in the thumbnail "romance anime?" I laughed so hard. btw the 1st ending of classroom of the elite is not sung by the minami I'm assuming your thinking of. its a different minami from the one who done the domestic girlfriend opening. The one who done ed1 for classroom of the elite is minami kuribayashi I'm pretty sure.

[@nagatubimaru]

Cotes Light Novel is Goated Anime very enjoyable too Kiyotaka is one of my fav Mcs of all time aswell Kei best girl by the way

[@iwo4739]

COTE is pretty good. It is about an elite school in Japan and the forced rivalry between 4 classes of students (A, B, C, D). You can buy anything at that school with points. It is more of a psychological thriller with cute anime girls. I really like the main character, highly intelligent but a complete sociopath.

[@yoganthropus7586]

ZAQ also singing for Food Wars season 3, and Trinity Seven

[@Sandro_de_Vega]

ZAQ sings a LOT of anime related songs.

[@willm772]

This is a deathnote with smarter characters and the lack of supernatural elements and no gods of death and fewer monologs to lead you through the baby steps of their strategies. Essentially, it's just better. It is also going to get another season, so in terms of channel growth starting now is great.

[@sergeantfluffbutt42069]

No way you just called CotE characters smarter and the anime “essentially just better”. I like both but CotE does not measure up to Death Note

[@sergeantfluffbutt42069]

@hidetakamiyazaki1825 i agree that it generally makes little sense to compare them because they have very different focuses & intentions, but i just find it ludicrous for someone to claim the CotE characters are smarter than than Death Note characters.

@@somerandomguy4216 quite a few of the COTE characters are generally kinda stupid or at least behave like it so no, i stand by my point that you cant broadly claim that COTE characters are smarter than death note characters because you cant fucking quantify the intelligence of two casts that arent even the same size either. And also, no, dude didnt mean "more smart characters" because he literally, word for word said "with smarter characters"

Its... difficult describing it without any spoilers. All i can say without spoilers is tht i thought: oh, cool like a mystery romcom i can watch. It aint.
