Assassination Classroom has a wacky and imaginative premise, but the show ultimately suffers from a lack of variety.

A bizarre premise that loses steam in the TV format. Assassination Classroom starts off very well, with the octopus Koro-sensei training students to kill him, but the narrative quickly turns into a generic and repetitive school anime.
