P.E. instructor of class 3-E, using his lessons to train the students in assassination techniques. He is well known among militaries for his outstanding reputation and is a powerful individual, which he has proven when he easily overpowered Irina's master, who is a retired professional hit man, and even Koro-sensei himself is afraid upon seeing his capability for the first time. He is strict, but a kind man, though he keeps a distance between himself and the students due to his status as an agent and his own professionalism.

Students These are the students of Kunugigaoka Junior High School:
Class 3-E Class 3-E (nicknamed E as in 'End Class') is a subdivision of the Kunugigaoka Junior High School. Class 3-E is notorious for containing a group of students with naturally low grades. Conventionally, it is composed of twenty eight students who could not either compete with the school's standard level of study, nor comply with its overly rigid code of discipline, among others who were subjected to some form of unfair punishment. Obligated to attend class in a run down school building, set in a mountain far from the rest of the school's premises, the students of Class 3-E are largely discriminated against by the rest of their peers. The students of this class are assigned the mission to assassinate their homeroom teacher, Koro-sensei, for the compensation of
¥10 billion (equivalent to $93,038,500.00
USD as of July 8, 2020, €82,420,000.00
EUR as of July 8, 2020, and £74,140,000
GBP as of July 8, 2020). Aside from such generous reward, some students have other reasons for killing Koro-sensei, which are explained through the story.

Oblivious to Class 3-E's secret, he similarly looks down upon them like the rest of the school and is dedicated to suppressing them like the rest. However, he has a strained relationship with his father, who only communicates with him in order to teach him something. To this end, he also seeks to eventually defeat his father intellectually and expose his darkest secrets, including those of Class 3-E. His main rivals are Karma, who is the only student on Class 3-E as gifted as him and who eventually defeats him in the final exams, and Isogai due to being fellow class president and having similarly-strong leadership qualities. Initially angered by their dogged victories over the rest of the school, over time he becomes humbled by them and acknowledges Class 3-E as worthy rivals as he claims that they were able to bring out the best in him and his classmates because they themselves were strong. Once Gakuhō begins resorting to physical and emotional abuse against Class 3-A to defeat 3-E, Gakushū eventually decides he has had enough and goes so far as to ask Class 3-E for help by having them beat Class 3-A completely and fairly during their final exams; they assure him that that is their plan. Once they are defeated, Gakushū allows the class to take solace in him and each other, while taunting Gakuhō for failing ideologically as the rest of Class 3-A finally stands up to him and acknowledges Class 3-E's skill. After Gakuhō is himself humbled by Koro-sensei, the father and son begin to reconcile to some extent. During graduation, Gakushū renews his rivalry with Karma upon knowing that he will remain at the academy for the High School, and claims that he will eventually force him to reveal the truth behind what happened at Class 3-E during the course of the year. ; : : Head of the broadcasting club, specialized in media. ; : : The student council secretary, specialized in arts. ; : : Head of the biology club and expert in memorization. ; : : The student assembly chair, specialized in languages.
