Brief recap of Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 4
Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 4 kicked off with boys of Class 1-C getting eager and anxious amidst the Valentine’s Day fever. Sudo, Kanji, and others were convinced that girls usually get shy, the sole reason they couldn’t openly profess their feelings by giving chocolates to the person they liked.
However, their theory crumbled when they witnessed Hirata with a barrage of presents. After meeting Karuizawa at the rendezvous, Kiyotaka showed her the number from which he received a call from an unknown individual.
After she agreed to look into the matter, Kiyotaka told Karuizawa that he could help her prepare for the upcoming exam. Subsequently, Karuizawa gave Kiyotaka the chocolates she had bought for him and lied by saying they were for Hirata. Unbeknownst to the pair, Hashimoto was eavesdropping on them because he suspected something was fishy about Kiyotaka.
Hashimoto developed an interest in Kiyotaka the moment he heard Nagumo talking about him in front of Manabu, whom he asked to withdraw from the competition. After making his presence known, Hashimoto asked the duo whether they were seeing each other, but they denied this.
Karuizawa created a false story of Kiyotaka acting as a matchmaker to deliver her messages to the person she liked, and Hashimoto bought it. However, he suddenly got too flirtatious with Karuizawa, which caused her to leave promptly.
Later, Kiyotaka met Ichinose to check on her and even brought her food, given she was under the weather. The next day, strange rumors around Hondou, Karuizawa, Shinohara, Onodera, Satou, and even Kiyotaka engulfed ANHS. Yamauchi created a ruckus by teasing the victims and upsetting everyone.
What to expect from Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 5
Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 5 will likely unveil the truth behind the rumors, shedding light on whether they are true or merely false accusations. Given Kiyotaka’s current inaction in various matters, there's a possibility that he might choose to address this particular issue. Additionally, Classroom of the Elite Season 3 Episode 5 will likely reveal Kiyotaka’s mystery caller.
