Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 13 was released on March 27, 2024. The episode was titled ‘Amor magister est optimus,’ a quote taken from Pliney the Younger’s Epistulae, which roughly translates to Love is the Best Teacher. Although the excitement for the installment was at an all-time high, fans of the series were also saddened as this was the grand finale of the season.
Given there has yet to be any news regarding the fourth installment, it can be anticipated that, given the considerable gaps between the installments, it will eventually take much time for the series to return with Season 4. Once again, the anime concludes by opening doors for new rivalries and challenges that confirm that the story is far from end.

Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 13: Kanzaki threatens Ryuuen
During a discreet meeting in the men’s washroom, Hashimoto commended Ryuuen for his ultimate move at the Event Selection Exam. Hashimoto also got eager to learn what the Ryuuen planned next, which caused the latter to get suspicious and tell the former to drop the act and stop playing his game as a double agent.
As Ryuuen is a very perceptive individual, he doesn’t easily trust people like Hashimoto and deems them to be a potential threat in his path. All of a sudden, Kanzaki arrived to talk to Ryuuen in person. Kanzaki proclaimed that he would join Hashimoto despite having little to no trust in him. Given how Ryuuen turned the tides in the Event Selection Exam, Kanzaki held a grudge against Ryuuen.
Kanzaki revealed that he didn’t mind supporting Ichinose despite the fact that she wasn’t a good fit to lead Class 1-B. However, he has now made a proclamation of war to go against the likes of him using a different approach. It is unknown what Kanzaki has under his sleeves, but it will surely give Ryuuen a nightmare. Later, Ryuuen met Kiyotaka after receiving a cryptic message from Hiyori.
For Kiyotaka, the purpose of the impromptu meeting was to learn what Ryuuen had in his mind. After the latter proclaimed to crush Sakayanagi and Ichinose, the former asked him to lay low. As Kiyotaka takes Ryuuen as one of his tools, his expulsion could defeat the purpose of what's cooking inside his head for the next year.

Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 13: Tsukishiro to enroll someone from White Room as a student in ANHS
Given the order he received from Mr. Ayanokouji, Tsukishiro wanted Kiyotaka to return to the White Room, but he again declined. Seeing Kiyotaka’s resolve to stay in ANHS, Tsukishiro told him that another individual from the White Room would be joining the school as a 1st-year student.
Tsukishiro proposed a challenge, saying that he would resign from his position if Kiyotaka managed to determine the White Room student. If the latter failed to identify the student by the end of April, he would be left with no choice but to return to the White Room facility, accepting his father’s wish.
After Tsukishiro tried to imply that Kiyotaka wasn’t the only success story of the clandestine institution, the latter instantly proclaimed that there was no one from the White Room who could be more outstanding than him. Kiyotaka’s response certainly had Tsukishiro reconsider his assumptions, as he realized that the former was undoubtedly a prodigy.
