Assassination Classroom, Vol. 11

暗殺教室 [Ansatsu Kyōshitsu] #11

by Yusei Matsui

Ever caught yourself screaming, "I could just kill that teacher"? What would it take to justify such antisocial behavior and weeks of detention? Especially if he's the best teacher you've ever had? Giving you an "F" on a quiz? Mispronouncing your name during roll call...again? How about blowing up the moon and threatening to do the same to Mother Earth—unless you take him out first?! Plus a reward of a cool 100 million from the Ministry of Defense! Okay, now that you're committed... How are you going to pull this off? What does your pathetic class of misfits have in their arsenal to combat Teach's alien technology, bizarre powers and...tentacles?!

Class 3-E student Isogai breaks the school rules by working part-time to help support his family. When Gakushu and the Big Four students find out, they use his secret as leverage to force 3-E to participate in a bizarre sports day competition. Soon it’s time for the school’s midterm competition as well, but when some 3-E students accidentally injure the elderly owner of a day care, Koro Sensei forbids them from studying and orders them to replace him until he recovers! Assassination is one thing, but babysitting little kids…?!

I took a break from this series for awhile, feeling like it was initially wonderful and strange, but lately spinning its wheels. Background: An octopus-like super-powered monster, Koro Sensei, plan to blow up the world; he is also a middle school teacher. The students, to save the world, have to assassinate their teacher, but the catch is, they like and admire him. Silly, yep? Will they actually kill him? Will he actually blow up the world if they do not fill him? Well, this is why we read the books, to paraphrase a sports saying.

In volume eleven, not much happens to further our breathless inquiry into these important questions:

*One silly thing the students do is develop nick/code names for everyone for a day. (somewhat amusing)

*Our Class E once again defeats Class A in pole pull down match. (eh, these sports matches are a little like the Quidditch matches in Harry Potter: obligatory, but meh)

*Class E “makes a mistake” in injuring a daycare principal, and the kids learn the value of community service in restitution. (good!)

*Koro Sensei also at one point slaps some of the kids. (Surprising, but a little funny).

Eh, see? It’s okay, solid, not great. Still spinning its wheels.

This was fun and all, but largely filler. We get some nice character moments, and the students of Class E get some new uniforms, the special properties of which will be explored in Volume 12, but that's about it. The two main stories involve a school sports festival with a grudge match between between Class E and Class A. Class A bends the rules heavily in their favor. Guess who wins? The other main story involves Class E dealing with the consequences of a dangerous mistake by one of their own. It's a chance for us to see how much they've matured and progressed. If you're a fan of this series, of course you're going to want to read this. If you're not a fan ... well, first of all, either you're starting with Volume 11 (weirdo!) or, despite not being a fan, you're still reading after 10 volumes (masochist!) Anyway, this volume is not likely to make you a fan, but frankly that's probably the least of your issues ... (joke, really!)

This was pretty good, but mostly filler. I do like Nagisas friendship with Sakura, that was pretty cool. This does give some character development, and shows most of the characters in the class, so it's not horrid, just does not really advance the plot all that much.

Assassination soap opera continues on....

Had a great review..and it vanished.

Summary of old review:
Class E is still thought of as lazy under achievers with bad attitudes. Appearances are deceiving, because their class is being shown how to be good people when they aren't forced to read school books. Class A is still trying to beat them down and get them back in line so the structure of learning can stay as it always has.

Will Koro Sensei's students win at assassinations AND at educational rankings? Time will tell.

Lima bintang karena cerita terakhir. Jadi inget cerita biksu tukang masak yang makan kepala ular yang ngga sengaja ikut dimasak di dalam makanan vegetarian yg ia suguhkan ke biksu kepala. 'Menelan' kesalahan memang pahit, tapi mendayagunakannya sehingga bisa mengubah dan bahkan bisa mempengaruhi dan menularkan sikap positif ke orang lain itu luar biasa.

Saya jadi diingatkan dan saya berterimakasih untuk itu.

[David Doel · Rating 5 out of 5]

I gave this volume a fifth star because it is my last volume (there are twenty-one volumes in the series) and it did not include a cliffhanger at the end. Not only that, but the final story was heartwarming and consistent with the positive message I have seen throughout the eleven volumes. Assassination Classroom doesn't sound like the source of a positive message, but it is far more positive than most manga I have read.

[Victor The Reader · Rating 5 out of 5]

We see our class create their own nicknames for each other just before they participate in a bizarre and brutally tough competition during the school’s sports day where there’s a big surprise involving their corrupt headmaster. Later, their ever growing strength gets them in unexpected trouble and results in them volunteering to mentor younger kids. A (100%/Outstanding)

[Emma (littledollreads) · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really liked this volume. It felt like a very grounding experience, less focused on the assasination plots and more focused on how all the students have grown as people. It was nice, still high stakes, but not as high as the moon.

Finally reading another volume. I've been a bit overwhelmed with Christmas planning and just general life lol. I liked the beginning, which was sports day. It was interesting how they interpreted their teachers movements into defense/offense techniques. I will admit, the rest felt a bit like filler, but was still fun.

One of the rare volumes of this series that didn't QUITE work for me. Like, I still enjoyed reading it and I'm definitely going to continue! But it felt a lot of the time here like the overall plot stagnated for the sake of the volume-specific plot. And, like, at this point I'm far more invested in the save-the-world plot than the can-Class-E-make-the-rest-of-the-school-see-their-worth plot. You know?

[Jason · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another tight spot Class-E got themselves into, and they still work together and take on any obstacle. I can't wait to find the anime soon and start reliving all of this glory.

[Sharla · Rating 5 out of 5]

I heart Isogai for all the same reasons the characters in the story do, but also because he's voiced by one of my favorite anime voice actors. This story does such a perfect job of showing why he is such a great guy and is so well loved by his classmates.

The Pole Pulldown story also gives us another terrifying look into Principal Asano. It is utterly terrifying what he does to his son's foreign friends when they simply try to stand up for him. The expectations Asano is up against are impossible and it makes him a very sympathetic antagonist, even with all his plotting.

Finally the story with the school is so great because it goes a long way to show Class 3E that all the "deadly" skills they've been learning can be used for the good of those around them. It also begins Nagisa's deliberation about what the future holds for him - teacher or assassin?

[Brandon · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's telling that my favourite volume of this series so far is just a sports manga. Or mostly is. The students of Class E go up against the students of Class A in an athletic competition, as we see the "leaders" of each class go head-to-head in a battle of strategy and athletics. Class A has the numbers advantage, but wants to not just beat but humiliate and demoralize Class E. Class E is obviously smarter and stronger individually, but are the udnerdog that have to find a way to overcome their natural numbers disadvantage. Lots of neat skills being used and action scenes, followed up with a short arc of them helping out in their community. The second arc really leads into where the story is going next and feels like a set-up for their big 'power up' of sorts as the deadline for assassinating Koro Sensei draws closer.

In this volume, class 3E uses their talents for good - to rebuild a daycare after they injure its owner. Oh Koro-sensei, I could almost forget you want to blow up the Earth.

(stejná recenze u všech dílů)
Moc pěkná kresba, jež si již od začátku udržovala svoji kvalitu. Akorát mi ze začátku štvalo, že mi deformovali Karmův obličej. Naštěstí se po asi tří kapitolách po jeho objevení už neukázal. Také mě fascinoval fakt, že se zde vyskytovala hromada ošklivě vypadajících lidí. To ale byly většinou nedůležité postavy. Dále mě fascinoval fakt, že převládala černá barva vlasů i u více důležitých postav. Detaily tu byly také moc hezky vykreslené a především se mi líbily různorodé výrazy postav. Hlavně ty Koro-senseie. :D Třeba tenhle na spodku je úplně roztomilý. :D



Úžasný, dojemný a originální příběh, který se četl skoro sám. Probudil ve mně opravdu hodně emocí a velice mě bavil. Všechny postavy byly skvělé, neboť u skoro každé jsme věděli aspoň kousek z její minulosti, takže její charakter byl uvěřitelný. Dokonce se vyvíjeli i méně důležité postavy a u hlavních byl ten vývoj zcela zřejmý. Je trochu škoda, že se z valné většiny stali spíše kladné postavy, ale zde mě to ani moc nevadilo, protože k tomu měl každý svůj důvod.

Moje nejoblíbenější postava je Karma. <3 Miluji ho celým svým srdcem. <3 <3 :D Zaprvé proto, že vypadá pěkně (díky bohu, že autor mu přestal hned po 2 kapitolách dělat různě zdeformovaný obličej :D) a zadruhé proto, že se mi hodně líbil jeho charakter, především jeho vývoj. Abych pravdu řekla, tak prvních celých 10 stránek jsem ho moc ráda neměla, ale pak se všechno obrátilo. Trochu mi přišla škoda, že nebylo možné se dozvědět o něm něco více. :( Mimochodem vyrostl po těch sedmi letech do krásy. :D



Zajímavá mi přišla minulost Koro-senseie. Sice byla trochu klišoidní, neboť prostě za všechno může žena, ale to mi nevadilo. Nejhorší bylo, že nám byla odhalena trošičku na začátku, a pak se muselo dobu čekat, než se zjistily další podrobnosti, a já se prostě nemohla dozvědět více. :D Mimochodem předtím než se stal chobotnicí, vypadal vážně dobře. :D Bylo vážně těžko uvěřitelné, že to předtím byl vrahoun. Byl sice zkušený, ale to jsem připisovala jeho nadpřirozeným schopnostem. A ke všemu byl na všechny tak milý a nevypadal nebezpečně. Hádám, že to byl důvod smrti většiny jeho obětí.

Způsob, jakým byly vyobrazeny zkoušky, se mi moc nezamlouval a tyto části mě ani moc nebavily. Naštěstí tam byly pouze krátce a jen dvakrát. Prostě mi přišlo divná podávat písemky jako alegorii na bojiště. Ze začátku to bylo hustý, ale po chvíli mi to přišlo zdlouhavé, neboť komentáře studentů k otázkám mě moc nezaujaly.

Mimochodem když jsem u vzdělání... Tenhle celý vzdělávací systém se mi zdál opravdu příšerný a znechucující. Diskriminace je velmi hnusná věc. Sice asi měl úspěch, ale potopil jakýkoli jiný potenciál, a ke všemu k čemu je dobré se drtit až do umření, pokud vám něco nejde? Neříkám, že to není správné, avšak všeho moc škodí. Protože když se člověk bude dennodenně učit bez přestávky, úplně ho to zničí.

Také jsem nechápala chování Nagisovy matky. Jako vysvětlení mi zpočátku stačilo to, že ji opustil její manžel a ona to psychicky nezvládla. Pak se otec Nagisy náhle zjevil, takže jsem tento důvod nepobrala. Navíc po pokecání s Koro-senseiem to vypadalo, že se změnila k lepšímu. To jsem jí ale prostě nemohla uvěřit, neboť se to stalo vážně zčistajasna. Musela jsem litovat i "2D anime holky jsou lepší než reálné" týpka, jehož rodiče taktéž stáli za nic.

Nepřítomnost romantiky mezi studenty mi opravdu nevadila, jelikož by se mi uspořádání párů určitě nelíbilo a bylo by tam nadbytečná. Hlavně by mi určitě brejlatá holka sebrala Karmu a to bych jí neodpustila. :D Mezi některými žáky sice nějaké chemie probíhala, avšak většinou jen náznaky, což mi bohatě stačilo.

Konec se dal očekávat, ale i tak jsem prostě celou dobu doufala, že se to vyřeší jinak. Proč prostě musel Koro-sensei umřít? Proč? To bylo tak smutný. Ke všemu když byla naděje v jiné řešení. A chudák Nagisa, rozhodně bych nechtěla být ten, který by ho musel zabít. Musím se přiznat, že v tento okamžik se mi nahrnulo pár slziček do očí. :(

Rozhodně bylo zajímavé sledovat, kam to všichni dosáhli. Akorát mi přišel trochu zvláštní Nagisa mezi všemi delikventy, protože tam vypadal jako oběť, přestože opak je pravdou. :D Jsem ráda, že se nikdo spolu nezpároval. Na druhou stranu klidně autor nějaký pár mohl ukázat, jelikož některé byly přímo do oka bijící. :D Mimochodem Karma za těch 7 let, jak jsem již zmiňovala, opravdu vypracoval svůj vzhled na vyšší úroveň. :D



Obálky se mi líbí a jediné, co bych na nich vytkla, je nedodržování jednotného stylu až do konce. Poslední dvě obálky totiž pak vypadají, jako by mezi ostatní ani nepatřily. Mimochodem je opravdu pravda, že v jednoduchosti je krása.

Title: Classroom Assassination #11
Author: Yuesi Matsuri
Genre: Manga, Comedy, Odd,
5 out of 5 stars


In the latest volume of the psychological horror manga Blood on the Tracks, readers are taken deeper into the twisted relationships between mother and son, Shigeru and Mommy, and Seiichi and Yuiko. While the plot thickens and secrets are revealed, the main characters' memories are shrouded in fog, causing frustration and worry for those involved.

The series follows Seiichi, a high school student whose mother, known only as Mommy, has a tight hold on him. In previous volumes, it has been shown that Mommy has manipulated and shaped Seiichi into someone who meets her needs and desires. However, in Volume Eight, something begins to spark within Seiichi, igniting rebellion and causing him to question his love for his mother.

One of the main catalysts for this change is Shigeru, who has finally woken up from a coma but still has fuzzy memories of Seiichi and Mommy. This leads to frustration for Mommy, who had hoped that Shigeru's awakening would finally allow her to leave and escape the toxic dynamic between herself and Seiichi. But as they visit Shigeru, something triggers a memory for Seiichi, bringing up worries and unsettling feelings about his relationship with his mother.

The tension and trauma within the story are brought to life by the skilled hand of the mangaka, Shuzo Oshimi. He expertly weaves together visuals and narrative to create a truly unsettling atmosphere for readers. The way he portrays the complex and disturbing relationships in the story is both brilliant and chilling. As the story progresses, readers are taken further into the minds of the characters, making the experience all the more disturbing.

From a fight in the school bathroom to a detour near a place with a dead cat, and even a conversation with his aunt, Seiichi's mind is constantly triggered by events and people around him. This highlights the weight of his trauma and intense feelings of insecurity, making it clear that he is not just a victim but also a deeply troubled individual.

Blood on the Tracks is not for the faint of heart, but for fans of psychological horror, it is a must-read. The series continues to push boundaries and explore the darker sides of human psyche and relationships. Oshimi's masterful storytelling and unapologetic approach to the genre solidify Blood on the Tracks as a standout in the world of manga.

In conclusion, the latest volumes of Blood on the Tracks show why this series is psychological horror at its finest. With its brilliant portrayal of trauma, manipulation, and twisted relationships, readers are drawn into a world that is both unsettling and captivating. Seiichi's rebellion and the uncertain fate of the characters keep readers on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the next installment.
