In F8, Sudou asks Ayanokouji if he’s going to participate in the Q&A session in Classroom of The Elite Season 4 episode 10. Ayanokouji says yes. He asks Sudou about the condition of his team. Sudou is happy to reveal that they all got the scores. But Kanji feels sluggish. He was weird before the exam. But he kept brushing his teammates off that he was fine.
Feelings That Cannot Be Expressed
Ayanokouji says that session is session, although he worries about Kanji. He tells Sudou that it’s not hard to take the top spots as long as the three of them work together. Sudou guesses Ayanokouji is alone. He asks him if he can it. Ayanokouji says that it depends on if he can get the project that he’s good at. Sudou says goodbye to Ayanokouji. He will challenge with his full power.
The Q&A session begins. Ayanokouji looks at the screen. He’s surprised that it’s an anime. The question is which one is the title of Mobile Suit Gundam: Break the Bomb episode 13. It’s a simple question to the player. But Ayanokouji doesn’t know what is Break the Bomb.
Sudou and the teammate are very happy after they got the first place. Ayanokouji meets Nanase in the woods. She says that they’re some hard questions. She guesses he has some ideas for Sudou’s team. He asks her what she thinks of the three. She notices that the senior who sits looks really tired. She wonders if he’s sick. Ayanokouji reveals the boy is healthy. She learns that he worries about the boy’s mental condition. He admits that he cares for the boy. But he cannot keep worrying about someone else.
The fourth moving zone is going to be announced. She guesses he wants to set off right now. But he wants to check her tablet before they do it. She agrees with what he said. Because they’re not sure if they have the same itinerary. She shows her tablet to him. He thought she would make an excuse. She discovers that they have the same itinerary. She asks him if they will take the shortest route. He denies it. He decides not to force themselves this time. There’re some sessions in G8 and G9. He plans to only visit the two zones. They will take a break then.
She asks him where they’re going to set up camp. He takes a look at the tablet. He decides to go to H9 to set up camp. Sudou shows up. He heard that Ayanokouji was going to go to H9 to set up camp. He tells Ayanokouji that it’s their next designated zone. He offers to gather later. It’s quite lively when the friends are there. He wants to listen to his advice. Ayanokouji asks Nanase if she’s fine with it. She says that it’s a problem. She thinks it’s a good chance to communicate.
In H9, the boy learns that Nanase is a student of Class 1-D. He’s surprised. He thinks she’s not like a student of the class. She denies it. She says that she’s not an outstanding person. So it’s more appropriate that she begins with Class 1-D. It promises him to think that the outstanding people are them.
He notices that Sudou and Kanji are feeling down. He asks them what happened. Sudou says that he’s fine. But he asks the boy Ryotaro not to trust the girl. He says that he just told the truth. Ryotaro doesn’t understand it. Nanase tells him that she offended Sudou ever. He’s surprised. He takes a look at Sudou. Sudou says that the thing he cannot speak it out.
Ryotaro mentions Kanji has been tried. Kanji claims that he’s perfectly normal. But Ryotaro and Sudou scold Kanji. Kanji doesn’t understand why the two attacked him together. Nanase tells him that she thinks he looks lacking vitality. She asks him if he something is bothering him. Ryotaro thinks it’s not a big deal. Nanase persuades the people to give Kanji some time. Ryotaro tells her that she doesn’t have to do so. Sudou takes a look at Kanji. He persuades Ryotaro to wait a moment.
Kanji confesses it to his friends that he has cared for a girl. The girl he likes is Satsuki Shinohara. He hated her very much in the beginning. He doesn’t know when he began to care about her. He thinks he didn’t want to admit it. So he pretended that he didn’t fall for her.
Sudou thinks Kanji should go to confess since he fell for the girl. Kanji yells at his friend. He says that it’s not the situation. Nanase guesses something happened during the period. Kanji reveals the girl and Komiya are on the same team. He guesses Komiya likes Shinohara. Shinohara has very special feelings for Komiya as well.
Kanji wanted to get it first to team up with the girl. But he couldn’t express frankly. He had a fight with the girl like before. He thinks he’s such a loser. He mistook that she would still like him even if they had a fight. He was so lame. He doesn’t know what he should have done at that time.
Nanase figures it out that Kanji cannot express frankly when he faces Shinohara. She thinks it’s not a bad thing. He yells at them. He reminds her that Shinohara and Komiya are on the same team. It means that he has no chance. She doesn’t know it. But she wonders if Shinohara expected him to draw a clear line. She knows he is very cheerful no matter who it is. He can speak out what he thinks. She guesses Shinohara is certain of that about him. But she must hope he’s extra special to her. She hopes he can express his feelings frankly. It’s fine to cover shy. But it’s meaningless if the girl doesn’t know.
Nanase knows it clearly that Kanji wants to go to pursuit Shinohara. But he needs to fight and survive. If he cannot meet the girl again, he cannot tell her his feelings. Nanase tears up when she’s saying. She reminds Kanji that they don’t have time to worry. He agrees with what she said. He knows it’s meaningless if he cannot pass the exam.
The next day, Nanase visits Ayanokouji. She asks him if he’s awake. He asks her to wait for him a moment. He’s going to go out. They go to the beach. She worries that if she said it too much about Kanji yesterday. He thinks Kanji pulled himself together because of her words of encouragement. He tells her that the guy thanks her very much. But she worries about Kanji. She worries that the words she said yesterday will backfire. It will cause him to act recklessly. She doesn’t want to leave Kanji. He understands how she feels. He comforts her that they can meet as long as they agree on a meeting place, although it depends on the designated zone. He offers to tell it to Sudou before they leave.
Nanase and Ayanokouji say goodbye to Sudou. They go to J6. Ayanokouji learns that the session is Capture the Flag on the Beach. He and Nanase want to take part in the game. But they’re told that the event is fully booked. There’s one spot available in the girls’ teams. Nanase wants to skip it since the senior cannot take part in it. But he goes against it. Because he wants to take a break. He persuades her to take part in it. He mentions she gave him the Ranking Payment that reaches zones. It makes the gap be widening.
Ayanokouji notices that the girls are third-year students, except Nanase. There’s only one person being able to participate within a group. So the number is very unusual. It means that they gather there with an intention. He notices that Nanase chose a cute swimsuit. She says that she watched the Capture the Flag on the Beach on TV. Those girls wore the swimsuit to compete. She wonders if she got it wrong. He denies it.
Nanase’s physical ability score is B plus on OAA. But she can get A rating according to her performance until now. She’s a little overwhelmed because he keeps staring at her. He realizes what he does isn’t right as a good man. He apologizes to her. She goes to the competition.
Nagumo runs into Ayanokouji. He guesses he failed to take part in the session. Ayanokouji talks back that Nagumo failed as well. He asks him if he came to the zone just because it’s a designated zone. Nagumo doesn’t give Ayanokouji the answer. He persuades him to go to swim. Ayanokouji mistook that Nagumo would try his best to rack up points. Nagumo says that he needs to take a breath. He points out that racking points will begin tomorrow. The game will enter the middle game tomorrow.
It’s the day that will announce the top ten and bottom ten of all teams. If the teams other than the third-year make it into top three, he will take action. The first-year and second-year won’t take the podium. Ayanokouji is no exception. Ayanokouji gratefully accepts the senior’s advice. But he fights alone. He might take the bottom. Nagumo persuades Ayanokouji to team up with someone. After all, Horikita will be disappointed if Ayanokouji drops out.
Nagumo is called away. Ayanokouji sees Nagumo off. He thinks he has a tailored strategy. If Nagumo carries out the strategy, Ayanokouji will be forced to have a fierce fight.
Ayanokouji joins Nanase. He mentions she won overwhelmingly. She thanks him. But she thinks it took her a lot of effort to win. He asks her how much water she has. Except the bottle of water she just won, there’s almost none left. He has only one bottle left as well. It seems that lacking water is the first challenge. She thinks they should ensure a safe drinking water supply. She begins to drink.
He thinks he can return to the starting point to get water while he completes the session, if he’s alone. But she cannot just do whatever she wants like him. She asks him why he decided to fight alone. He asks her if she minds it very much. She says that acting alone will only do more harm than good. He admits that there’re many drawbacks. But it doesn’t mean that he cannot win. He mentions someone joined the team that didn’t score enough points. But he gained the unexpected bonus effects.
She learns that he fights alone for it. But he tells her that it’s her misjudgment. He just couldn’t find a team. She laughs. She agrees with what he said. After all, he’s not good at talk. She asks him if he was so before. He tells her that he has always been consistent. But she thinks people will be changed because of a turning point. He asks her if she’s changed. She thinks she’s changed. She mentions she smiled more often before. But she smiles less now. After all, she experienced the case that she thinks she’s changed.
She takes a break on the rock. He asks her if she can move. She says that she can do it. But he persuades her not to force herself. It’s essential to get adequate rest. He points out that she will feel unwell if she cannot follow him. He plans to go to check the session nearby.
In the zone, Ayanokouji wants to sign up. The teacher agrees. She tells him that he’s in the team seven. Hashimoto pants to arrive. He wants to join it. The teacher tells him that he’s in the last team. He mentions he and Ayanokouji ran into each other during the exam for the first time. He praises him to taking the exam alone. He asks him if he earned many points. Ayanokouji tells the guy that he’s not surprised if he ranks in the bottom ten.
Hashimoto thinks Ayanokouji is kidding. He doesn’t believe a person who lacks confidence would choose to fight alone. He tells Ayanokouji that he will rank top ten after the session. He feels relieved that the session isn’t math. After all, he cannot win if he faces a math genius. The teacher announces that the history session begins.
After session, Hashimoto is surprised that Ayanokouji is good at history as well. Ayanokouji says that the luck helped him. But Hashimoto doesn’t believe it. Ayanokouji decides to go to challenge chemistry session.
He returns to the previous place. He asks Nanase if her stamina is fine. She says that she has recovered. He wants to set off. But she wants to confirm one thing. She thinks he can contest higher rankings, no matter zones or sessions. He explains it to her that he didn’t plan to charge in the beginning. But she points out that there’s a limit to the points he can earn. She thinks the gap will widen if it keeps up. He leaks it’s one of his strategies.
Ayanokouji and Nanase gather with Sudou and his team. Kanji waves at Ayanokouji. They go camping together. Nanase praises the seniors for catching the fish. Kanji laughs. He reveals they caught it from the sea. Karuizawa shows up with her friends. She’s shocked after she saw Nanase. The teammate asks Karuizawa what happened. Karuizawa explains it to her teammate that she wanted to say that those guy were grilling fish. She offers to set up camp there. She guesses Kanji will gave them fish. But the guy gets angry. He wonders why he needs to do that. She comforts him that he won’t lose a piece of meat.
Sudou reminds Kanji that those girls might know the information of Shinohara. Kanji decides to share more fish with the girls. Karuizawa is very happy after she heard the good news. She thinks she earned after she spoke it out.

She admits that she worries about it. He claims that he does it for the exam. He doesn’t have any feelings for the girl. She trusts him. But she disliked it when she heard that he was with the girl.
