'''What is the real ability――? What is equality――?'''

Advanced Nurturing High School, a leading prestigious school with state-of-the-art facilities where nearly 100% of students go on to university or find employment. The students there have the freedom to wear any hairstyle and bring any personal effects they desire. Advanced Nurturing is a paradise-like school, but the truth is that only the most superior of students receive favourable treatment.

The protagonist Kiyotaka Ayanokōji is a student of D-Class, which is where the school dumps its "inferior" students in order to ridicule them. For a certain reason, Kiyotaka was careless on his entrance examination and was put in D-Class. After meeting Suzune Horikita and Kikyō Kushida, two other students in his class, Kiyotaka's situation begins to change.

From the super popular creator duo comes the new school revelation?!

The cutthroat school drama light novels that inspired an anime!

Students of the prestigious Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School are given remarkable freedom—if they can win, barter, or save enough points to work their way up the ranks! Kiyotaka Ayanokōji has landed at the bottom in the scorned Class 1-D, where he meets Suzune Horikita, who's determined to rise up the ladder to Class A. Can they beat the system in a school where cutthroat competition is the name of the game?
