Center
Primary
The film balances a critique of systemic educational marginalization with a strong emphasis on individual responsibility, self-improvement, and the transformative power of dedicated mentorship, leading to a neutral political stance.
The movie features a cast that reflects its Japanese origin, presenting diversity inherent to its cultural context rather than explicit DEI-driven recasting of traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on themes of education and personal growth, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering on strong DEI themes.
Secondary
The show features Irina Jelavić, a highly skilled professional assassin, who consistently demonstrates her mastery of hand-to-hand combat and knife fighting. She is frequently depicted defeating multiple male opponents in close-quarters engagements, showcasing her physical prowess and martial arts expertise.
Assassination Classroom does not feature any explicitly identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative primarily focuses on the students' mission to assassinate their teacher and their personal development, without exploring queer identities or relationships within its storyline.
The anime adaptation faithfully maintains the established genders of all characters from the original manga. Nagisa Shiota, a male character, is sometimes mistaken for a girl or cross-dresses within the story, but this is an in-plot disguise and not a change of his canonical gender.
The 2015 anime adaptation of "Assassination Classroom" faithfully portrays its characters as depicted in the original Japanese manga. There are no instances where a character canonically established as one race in the source material is portrayed as a different race in the show.
