VerifiedIntense episode about the class deciding who to kick out of school. Everyone plays safe and keeps their distance. Pace stays constant with not much happening until the end, then another twist hits and becomes a hook to make us watch the next episode right away.

VerifiedI'm SO sure Yamauchi’s reaction will add chaos because it forces everyone to emotionally confront what “expulsion” actually means
nekokurarisu
VerifiedWhat makes it hit is how fast the class divides afterward. Some accept it, others panic, and suddenly leadership becomes contested. Kushida is so freaking useful in the past few episodes it actually gives me chills
crybabytodoroki
VerifiedThis is the real turning point! Horikita officially naming someone to be expelled shifts the entire atmosphere. It’s no longer theory or discussion; it’s a direct accusation backed by logic which is a W move. Now it's up to the class to decide
b4kasamaaaaa
VerifiedEven if I subconsciously know that Kiyotaka's just playing with Ichinose for some kind of hold on Class B, why do I like this ship lmao. Horikita's reveal at the end was awesome, especially considering the moves that put that decision to action
hellozaworldo
VerifiedWhat surprised me most here is Kushida 😮 I didn't think she'd actually be this helpful. The dialogue between the Horikita siblings tho always feel so weirdly executed imo
uncultured_bovine
VerifiedNow this is more like it! Good payoff from the slower pace last episode. Kiyotaka's movements behind the scenes are getting more big brainy
reirei
VerifiedI have mixed feelings about this episode. It felt a bit slow, but the gradual tension and strong narrative elements kept it interesting—especially with how the ending played out.
katana
VerifiedThis episode felt a bit tense but also slow at times. The ending made up for it, though, and made the whole watch worthwhile because of how things started to escalate.
sandaime
VerifiedThe mind games and strategies are finally starting as everything falls into place. I like the pacing here since it builds up nicely and leads into something promising by the end.

VerifiedAyanokoji is alright as a char., just that the schemes and plots that are supposedly the work of his mastermind feels like it's otherwise. The characters not only feel dumbed down, but any character work HAS to be attributed to MC's "success" and it has to be all thanks to him😒
eatingsocks
VerifiedHONESTLY, it was obvious the show antagonized Yamauchi from the beginning, so Horikita's talk at the end, or rather the conclusion of the test doesn't land because there's no "unexpected" element to it, as it is intended to have. It just falls flat and makes me feel nothing
mustardsprinkles
VerifiedThe tension that the show tries to build up across episodes is very hard to follow/vibe with because of the inevitability that Ayanokoji will save the day in the end, or that everything will work out the way he wants it to. It would be nice to have some uncertainty..
28181883
VerifiedStrategic gameplay intensified but the pattern of "expulsion threats + Ayanokoji involvement" was starting to feel repetitive... the tension is also a bit meaningless now
homotron3799
VerifiedMy opinions are exactly the same as the previous episode. NOTHING IS CHANGING and I am just staring at my screen at this point.
belva
Verifiedthe brother-sister relationship vibes are kinda weird. but omg yasss expel the ugly guy periodt.

VerifiedAfter the heated chaos brought by the special exam, many students were confused and felt uneasy. This made the episode catchy, especially how different factors can affect one's decision. It'll make viewers also join the mind game.
lucylu
VerifiedAn intense episode as voting approaches. The animation portrays the paranoia well. It is impressive to see Horikita take charge, and showing her strength at the end really makes you want to jump straight into the next one.
itsmemaku
VerifiedThis felt like watching a slow-motion car crash where Sakayanagi is the one driving. I can’t believe Yamauchi is actually falling for her obvious manipulation just to target Ayanokōji! The psychological weight of this Class Poll is making everyone spiral. Absolute must watch.
EPISODE CONTEXT
Positioned at the exact midpoint of Season 3's thirteen episodes, Episode 7 escalates the internal fractures within Class 1-D that began surfacing in Episode 6, transforming simmering distrust into active threats. The manipulations and strategic gambits introduced here serve as the fulcrum for the season's back half, directly setting up the consequences and confrontations expected in Episode 8 and beyond. This is the episode where the season pivots from setup to payoff territory.
