Ayanokoji and Ichinose Make the Cover of Monthly Comic Alive

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and Honami Ichinose from Classroom of the Elite will be featured on the cover in the May 2025 issue of Monthly Comic Alive by KADOKAWA. The light novel series’ artist Shunsaku Tomose illustrated the visual, while the release date is set for March 27, 2025.

In the magazine, two manga adaptations are ongoing: Classroom of the Elite by Yuyu Ichino and Classroom of the Elite Year 2 2nd Stage by Hachi Komada.

In the visual, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji (right) and Honami Ichinose (left) stand close with her hands on him, which denotes their intimacy at the time, after Year 2 volume 12.5. Their eyes look toward the audience.
