What makes it different from others?

Good start, but then it gets ruined

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The title of this anime makes it sound like a sadistic and maybe lame wannabe thriller, but in reality, Assassination Classroom is an incredibly wonderful and heartfelt story. It starts off purely humorous and light, but oh my god, it blossoms into something amazing throughout it's two seasons. One of the most admirable things is the approach to every single character in the show; Assassination Classroom features a class of about 30 students, and surely an anime would never take the time to focus on each individual character and their talents and flaws, right? WRONG! By the end of the series, you seriously know about every character and get legit attached to them, which is amazing. The relationships in this show are executed perfectly, and when you give them a supernatural edge, the result is absolutely amazing. There's honestly nothing I disliked about this show, and btw, the ending made me cry so hard, and I'm not usually a cryer. Thinking back about literally any episode of AssClass makes me feel really good and happy. 10/10

I have no idea what the reviewers below were watching. Perhaps they are all 8-13 year olds... I dont know. But this is a very sad anime that goes no where and does nothing for at least the 1st 17 episodes. I gave up on it.This anime is basically all about tropes and cheesy dialog between kids. Its the definition of generic. If you look up how to create generic characters and used them all in one show, you will have this anime. Each character is the most bland, soulless copy of a character you have seen before but the weakness of this show it does not focus on story so nothing ever develops and no one cares about any of the characters. They use a new character every episode as the teacher helps them overcome their weaknesses. In between they throw in a few action sequences and a big boobed blonde to hold your interest. This is how you know the show is garbage.There is no story development in this show. Its just a mini coming of age story multiplied by the number of students in the class. Its not funny in the least.

When I watched the final episode, I just stared at my screen for some time. I was left with tears in my eyes, and that's something that has never happened before when I watched anime.You know what the thing is, this anime has overall little characters starring in it. So it's very easy to care for all of them. And boy, did I care. Ansatsu Kyoshitsu is about an assassination class, the E-class, who has to kill their teacher. Their teacher has already destroyed the moon, and is about to destroy earth as well. So, as to keep him a state secret, they give the E-class a chance of killing him. I thought this plot to be very strange and appealing. But when I watched the first episode, it was really really strange. But when you get passed that, the appealing part starts. And when you're passed the second episode and you kinda get what's going on, you won't be able to stop watching. The students grow and try out plans to kill their teacher. As the series progresses, they all develop their own skill, which allows the viewer to get to know each and every one of those students. And I really loved them. Especially Nagisa.The anime itself never gets boring. It is funny, very emotional and it even has plot twists you didn't see coming. It has it all. Lovely characters, romance, bloodlust, secrets, tense music,... Overall, it stays with you.The lingering and final idea the anime gave me, was that killing isn't easy. It may seem so at the beginning of the series, but it isn't. Not just because of all the planning and the risk of your own life. But because those students got in way too deep. They were too involved. And it is because of that, that this anime is so strong. It wouldn't have been if they followed one of the random assassins the government hired. I think I'm gonna watch them all again tomorrow.

its SO very funny, i can't stop laugh, it's the type of TV series for the people who wants a good and funny story. I Highly recommend to see it, in my opinion, 10 stars from 10. the first time i saw this anime i thank, "what the hell its going on here?". but 10 minutes later, i can't stop of watch it. seriously, this anime have...1. a good story 2. weird characters 3. a good ambiancesorry, but really i can't enumerate the good things of this anime, it's very funny.but to begin the anime in the o¿correct order, please, watch the OVA, i don't gonna do spoiler, because i have respect and love for all the anime in the world, specially for this.
