Assassination Classroom seasons
The Assassination Classroom anime has two TV seasons, both made by studio Lerche and directed by Seiji Kishi for Fuji TV. Season 1 has 22 episodes (January to June 2015) and season 2 has 25 episodes (January to July 2016), so the TV series has 47 episodes in all. Season 2 adapts the manga up to its last chapter, so the TV anime covers the whole story. Two films followed: 365 Days, released in November 2016, and Our Time, released in Japan on March 20, 2026, as the last project of the series' tenth anniversary. The manga by Yusei Matsui ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2012 to 2016 and was collected in 21 volumes. Crunchyroll streams the anime with subtitles and an English dub.

Season 1
Season 1 aired on Fuji TV from January 10 to June 20, 2015, with 22 episodes made by Lerche. Koro-sensei becomes the teacher of Class 3-E, and the students start the year with knives and guns made of a material that only harms him. They try different plans, meet their new adult teachers, and slowly begin to see themselves differently as the first exams and school trips come around.
Season 2
Season 2 aired from January 8 to July 1, 2016, with 25 episodes, again made by Lerche and directed by Seiji Kishi. The school year moves into its second half, with festivals, new rivals and harder challenges for Class 3-E as the March deadline gets closer. This season adapts the rest of the manga, so it brings the TV story to its end.
Next season Anime finished
There will be no third TV season, because the anime already adapts the whole manga. The next adaptation after 2016 turned out to be a film, not a new season. The film Our Time was announced in September 2025 and released in Japan on March 20, 2026, made by Lerche with director Masaki Kitamura and the original voice cast. It tells new stories that the TV anime did not show and closes the tenth-anniversary project. As of October 28, 2026, no new TV anime of Assassination Classroom has been announced.
