What We Think

If there’s a manual for non-woke storytelling in this era, Classroom of the Elite must have read it. Character-driven, complex, with no box-checking or forced messaging in sight, a true breath of fresh air from the usual Hollywood fare.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show prioritizes character depth and psychological gamesmanship over any identity-first casting or tokenization. Personalities, motivations, and inner strengths drive the action, rather than any forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional notions of competition, merit, and stratified achievement are not only present, but central. Gender roles are not heavily subverted, family and hierarchy are shown as complex but not demonized. There’s no heavy-handed moralizing against tradition.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s a diverse range of student ideologies, motives, and worldviews. Authority, hierarchy, and alternative perspectives are represented seriously, not simply mocked or turned into cartoonish villains. No obvious ideological bubble here.
