Classroom of the Elite (Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu) just released a second trailer for its fourth season, which will premiere on April 1st, 2026.

As Ayanokouji and his classmates begin their second year at the Advanced Nurturing High School, they’re greeted by a fresh gauntlet of exams and a fresh batch of rather unique first-year students. They’ll have to get to know each other quickly, because the first special exam pairs the first-years with the second-years on a written test—with only the second-years facing expulsion if their team performs poorly! Worse yet? It seems one of the new first-years is also from the White Room. Can Ayanokouji avoid expulsion while sussing out the identity of this hidden foe?

Syougo Kinugasa’s Classroom of the Elite has enjoyed mainstream success over the years, as evidenced by four continuations since 2017. With an April premiere, it’s going to join a very loaded gauntlet of anime arriving in Spring Anime 2026.

That means this whole thing was his idea, and he spends his time making stuff work and covering the latest anime and games. When he's not doing 100 things at once, he's usually... watching anime or playing games. His life isn't that interesting, honestly.
