It was a normal day in the classroom of The Elite, until one student decided to betray their classmates. The student has yet to be identified, but they left behind a mystery that is still unsolved. The Elite is a prestigious private school in the city, and it’s no surprise that there are a few secrets among its students. But what could possibly motivate someone to betray their classmates? There are many theories circulating around the school, but no one knows for sure what happened. Some say that the traitor may have had something personal against their fellow students, while others believe that they may have been blackmailed into it. Whatever the case may be, The Elite will need to figure out who did this and why before anyone else gets hurt. ..


In Volume 6 of Classroom of the Elite it is revealed that Shiho Maabe was the traitor. Kakeru Ryuen was a victim of her plan to win the festival. She made a recording and sent it to Class D. They won. It turned out that Shiho had been secretly blackmailed to be the traitor by Kiyotaka. Ryuen discovered this in Volume 6.

This article will focus on Shiho’s treachery of Class C during this year’s Sports Festival. We will reveal the details of what happened in the books that covered these events as well as the reasons why Shiho betrayed Class C. We will also reveal what happened to Shiho following these events.

Who is the traitor in Classroom of the Elite ?

These events were described in Volume 5, but they ended up in Volume 6. The consequences of these events are dealt with in later volumes, but not directly. The D-Class was also expected to attend the sports festival after the long summer vacations. But the Tokyo Advanced Nurturing High School wouldn’t have planned for such a superficial event. 

The festival saw the three year olds split into two teams: White and Red. A-Class, D-Class, and C-Class teams were competing against each other. A ranking is also given for each competition. Good rankings can earn you points.

Sudo, who was causing problems up until then, is now Class D’s trumpcard, and students are confident in their physical abilities. Horikita creates conflicts despite not changing his methods. Ryuen, Class C’s leader and traitor, seizes this opportunity.

Ryuen informs C Class that there is a traitor. A meeting will be held in order to discover who it is. He also announced that a person called “X” is leading Class D out from the shadows (“X is Ayanokoji). Ryuen, after discussing the events at the sports festival concludes that X was only trying to ruin Horikita.

Ryuen searches for the traitor as well, and knows it to be either Manabe (or one of his friends). He announces that everyone should leave, except for Ibuki and the traitors. Ryuen questions Manabe about the cruise and asks if any of them saw Karuizawa being bullied. Yukimura and Ayanokoji respond.

Ryuen recognized Kaneda as helpful after hearing the above. He says it’s Yukimura or Ayanokoji. However, he suspects Yukimura because he doesn’t know him well. Ayanokoji doesn’t view him as a guide to evil shadows. . Ryuen admits to this but doesn’t rule it out that someone could control her.

Why Shiho Betrayed Class C?

Manabe was introduced in volume 4 and was then placed in the Rabbit Group during the Cruise Special Test. She was joined by Kiyotaka, Honami Ichinose and Kei Karuizawa as well as her partner MioIbuki and many others. Manabe, Saki Yamashita and Nanami Yabu, her friends, were in the same group. They had conflicts with Karuizawa when she accused her of pushing Rika. She demanded her apology.

Manabe was annoyed that Karuizawa used Class 1-A’s Machida to shield herself and pretend she didn’t know. Following one of their group meetings, they took Karuizawa up to the cruise ship’s emergency stairs and confronted her over the incident with Rika. Manabe began to hurt Karuizawa after Karuizawa refused admitting that she pushed. Karuizawa became more cocky and panicked at this point. They were then interrupted by Teruhiko Yamamoto and Kiyotaka who had been following them.

Manabe and her friends made the decision to leave but were told not to tell anyone. Manabe was later inundated with anonymous messages from Kiyotaka. These messages incited her hatred for Karuizawa. He suggested that they collaborate to take revenge on her. Manabe accepted and told her what to do.

Rika and her friends later encountered Karuizawa at the lower levels of the cruiser. They beat her to let her vent their anger. Kiyotaka secretly recorded her actions. This is how Shiho betrayed her own class.

What happened to Shiho after his betrayal?

In volume 10, Ryuen was at risk of being expelled because of his poor reputation in his class. Ibuki, Ishizaki and Kiyotaka asked for his help to save Ryuen. Kiyotaka organized a meeting between Honami, Ishizaki and Ibuki in his room the night before Class Survey. They collected 5,000,000 private points from Ryuen, and decided to expel Manabe in order to save him with the aid of Hiyori Shiina.

Kiyotaka also asked Honami to tell her Class B to vote for Ryuen. Ibuki offered Honami the private points that he needed to keep someone from Class B out of being expelled. To ensure the integrity and honesty of the deal, Kiyotaka was a witness. Manabe was therefore expelled from Ryuen, despite receiving the most critical votes.
