Season 3
Classroom of the Elite
With the start of the third term, Ayanokouji and his classmates, who have been promoted from Class D to Class C, head off for school camp. They will take part in a special test called "Mixed Training Camp," where all grades are combined. As the name implies, the test is divided by gender, and several groups are made up of mixed classes and graded based on a group basis. They have to cooperate with students from classes with whom they had been competing against each other as enemies to obtain a high score. Above all, they are horrified by the rule that students from groups that fail to reach the borderline will be expelled. The curtain on the turbulent third semester of the school year is about to rise!

To work you have the right, but not to the fruits thereof.
It's Valentine's Day and the boys of Class C are excited about whether or not they will receive chocolates. Meanwhile, Karuizawa seems uneasy over Ayanokoji's request to meet up and while doing so an unexpected person appears...
Fortune favors the bold.
Turns out the one spreading the rumors was Hashimoto, who did so at the behest of Sakayanagi. Shortly thereafter, Sakayanagi appears before Class C and she informs them she has evidence regarding the rumors about Ichinose.
It is better to receive an injury than to inflict one.
Everyone in Class C has passed their year-end exam. While relief flows through the classroom, Chabashira announces a special exam. It will be a class vote to choose three people worthy of praise and three worthy of censure.
