Assassination Classroom or Ansatsu Kyōshitsu is an anime based on the Japanese manga series written by Yūsei Matsui. The story of the show, which will be later discussed in this post, is unlike anything I have ever seen. The mere uniqueness and the simplicity of the plot, not to mention the absolutely lovable characters, is what makes Assassination Classrooms one of the most entertaining shows ever made. With an 8/10 rating from the IMDb, you will see Assassination Classroom’s name in almost all top 10 comedy series. Not to mention, the anime is not simply about humour. The show’s plot runs quite deep and has one of the most action-packed characters you will see. If you’re looking to know more about Ansatsu Kyōshitsu, then make sure to keep reading this post!

Plot Of The Show
[BACKGROUND]

One Day out of nowhere, an alien creature with an octopus-like tentacle appears. With its immense strength and superpowers, the creature destroys 75% of the earth’s moon. However, the woes of humanity haven’t ended just yet. The alien announces that it will give the earthlings a period of 1 year, over which they can try out any means of assassination on him. However, if they cannot kill him even after a year, he will destroy the earth as we know it.
Meanwhile, the alien creature decides to become a professor of the poorest class, Class 3-E of Kunugigaoka Junior High School. A class filled with poor and misfit students who have to study in an old school building due to their status.
Meanwhile, in a state of desperation, The Japanese government announces a 10 Billion Yen bounty on the alien’s head, prompting the students to kill the alien by whatever means necessary. However, killing the alien is far from easy. The octopus-like creature now begins his duty as a school teacher and is referred to as Koro-sensei by his students.
[PLOT]

The story revolves around a boy named Nagisa Shiota. Initially, Nagisa appears to be the weakest of the students in class. The one who doesn’t stand a chance of killing Koro-Sensei. All Nagisa does is to look for any weaknesses and note them down.
However, as the series progresses, it is realised that he might be the best bet on finding out a way to kill the alien. However, as the class spends more time with Koro-Sensei, they not only begin scoring great marks but also become one of the most versatile sets of students. Therefore, in a strange turn of events, it turns out that Koro-Sensei is the best teacher in the whole world.
The alien creature not only helps students with their studies but also makes them into better human beings. Therefore, as time progresses, the conflict of killing their beloved teacher becomes imminent. However, there is a huge secret lying beneath Koro-Sensei. A secret that might change everything.
