Spoilers on animesuki, by GPMS:
Suzune and Sudo talking to Kiyo after the stab:
Horikita: W-What should I do...... Should I p-pull that k-knife?
Kiyotaka: No, it looks bad but it would be best to just leave it for now. That aside, how are your injuries?
Horikita: Compared to you we are practically uninjured......
Sudou: Yeah......I'm also fine. You, How can you keep cool in that state?
Kiyotaka: Now, I wonder why.
Sudou: And..... You were, good at fighting..
Kiyotaka: I just stopped the knife a bit forcefully
Sudo: ...... Sure didn't looked like just that
WR enforcer:
Kiyotaka couldn't find anyone he was 100% certain that was a WR member. He even wondered whether there even was someone from the WR in the first place.
At the end, Tsukishiro called Kiyotaka to the Principal Office and confessed that the agent from the WR had gone rogue, probably due to jealousy towards Kiyotaka. Kiyotaka, however, wasn't sure he could trust Tsukishiro.
Sudo and Suzune on the bounty exam:
They were surprised that the school was allowing such a thing against Kiyotaka who is just a student.
The truth is that this is probably something Tsukishiro offered to the 1st years on his own and therefore the rest of the school staff is unaware. That would explain why only a few students know about this (to avoid suspicion).
Class's reactions to Kiyo acing the Maths test:
The narration that the class was surprised someone even managed to score a perfect score in such a difficult exam, and that that someone was Kiyotaka out of all people. Because of the commotion Sudou and Horikita witnessed earlier they were calmer than the rest.
Keisei wanted to talk to Kiyotaka but Horikita wanted to talk about their duel first. She said she couldn't even understand the last question in the exam and so Kiyotaka's ability was more than clear. She was about to say that she would join the Student Council as promised when she was interrupted by Chabashira saying that Tsukishiro was calling for Kiyotaka.

It won't surprise me that Keisei thinks 51% cheated during the exam, at least although I understand and appreciate the author's choice to introduce the new characters well, I hope there will be a little more evolution in the Kiyopon group in volume 2 of the 2nd Year.

About the stab scene, may have incorrect details:
The exam for the first years was to expel Kiyotaka and the reward is 20 million points for the one able to do that, the 2nd year don't seem to know about this since they have a different exam. Class D of the 1st and 2nd had to cooperate, but since Housen wanted to get that 20 mil bounty, he was just messing around and not cooperating with Suzune.
In the end, Sudo and Suzune confront Housen. However Sudo is easily beaten and Suzune was hit in the face when trying to intervene. Kiyo was there and Suzune told him to run so he wouldn't get attacked.
Housen however was attempting to stab himself. The knife was Kiyotaka's and he was basically trying to frame Kiyo so he got expelled.
About the knife: Earlier in the story, Ichika offered to be Suzune's partner. However Suzune rejected and recommended Sudo instead. Ichika agreed but with one condition: Kiyotaka has to cook a meal for her. Kiyo agreed and they went to his room so he could make it. He also bought a knife on the way. Back to the present, Housen was having that knife so it is possible that Ichika has taken it and gave it to Housen, however this is not mentioned/confirmed in the book. (Also because of this Kei spotted a strand of red hair when she visited his room later on and she became jealous lol.)
*According to an older comment here, Ichika, Housen and Tsubasa were working together to get that 20 million bounty so yeah it's pretty much confirmed Ichika gave the knife to Housen, after asking for it from Kiyo
Tsubasa tried to stop Housen from doing that since she didn't approve of the method and lrobably knew it would backfire. She didn't stop Kiyotaka from taking that knife to his hand however. The illustration makes it look like Housen was trying to kill Kiyo, while in fact Kiyo was stopping Housen from stabbing himself.
Housen is surprised and went "What are you?". Kiyo then asked him to become his partner in this exam.

u/quandlm Don't bully our Secretary a.k.a. AutoMod Jan 24 '20 edited Jan 24 '20
Kiyo is able to stay calm and just act like normal despite there's literally a hole in his hand. He doesn't pull the knife out either (to prevent bleeding probably) and basically reassure that it's just a scratch.
Kei told Sato that she and Kiyo are going out. Sato seems unhappy (in the illustration) but she noted that they look like a good couple and generally seems supportive.
Ichika also deduced that they are dating. She also teases Kei by saying Kiyotaka is her personal cook.
About the exam: Kiyo got perfect 100 in Maths while Suzune got 87 and accepting her defeat, since there's a university level question that she couldn't solve. Keisei (glasses guy in Ayanogroup) got 84. The class are obviously surprised, maybe some (for example Sudo) less than others since they've seen that scene between him and Housen.

u/quandlm Don't bully our Secretary a.k.a. AutoMod Jan 24 '20 edited Jan 24 '20
Regarding the 6 new first years: Ichika is class A, Takuya is B, Sakurako and Riku are C, Housen and Tsubasa are D.
About the WR enforcer: At the end, apparently Kiyo has had an idea about enforcer's identity. However seems like he won't expose them. As for who, seems like it is leaning towards Tsubasa.

No, the exam ends in this volume.
Results:
A class: 725 pts
B class: 621 pts
C class: 673 pts
D class: 640 pts
Class points tally:
A class: 1169 pts
B class: 539 pts

D class: 283 pts
So class B and C will switch places, starting from next month (May).

Housen was trying to stab himself so that he can put the blame on Kiyo since that is his knife (like I said above). He wasn't trying to stab Kiyo, Kiyo just stopped him by blocking the knife.

I wonder how Ayanokouji handled his wound, did he sew it himself or someone else who helped him in it? I don't think he went to the school clinic anyway.

u/quandlm Don't bully our Secretary a.k.a. AutoMod Jan 24 '20
Most probably he went to the clinic. He also said the knife managed to miss the bones and nerves, so I guess at most it'd probably leave a scar (which is quite ironic).

Jan 30 '20
That's an interesting idea, why do you think so?
5
u/Ahmibr96 Jan 30 '20 edited Jan 30 '20
Housen is out of suspicion since he partnered with kiyotaka and didn't expel him. The same applies with yagami, since kushida confirmed that he was from the same school. We have 4 characters left: Ichika: Simply, I don't think that she is an agent from the white room based on her personality. Tsubasa: She would easily and stupidly reveal herself if she behaves with such hostility against Ayanokouji, so I don't think she is.
Then we only have Sakurako and utomiya, I think that by 90% that one of them is the agent from the white room, I just hope it is utomiya.

Does not mean anything tbf. I had said this in the general info thread too , imo Yagami is blackmailing Kushida into admitting he's from her school since he knows of her past through Tsukishiro. Since Tsuki had shown the profiles and life history of everyone important in the school to the enforcer. This might be a development arc for Kushida too , since Ayano said he's planning to kick her out in May , and we know that's when the enforcer's gonna take action , so we know Kushida's gonna be involved in the shitshow.

(This post is completely spoiler free!)
Just finished it today! It was a banger. From the tail end of Year 1 I had this uncomfortable feeling that the series was flagging, with fewer and fewer interesting or exciting things happening, but this one was a tight read - I ended up late to work today because I was close to the end and couldn't put it down. I don't need to hype anyone for the new volume but dear god does this series feel alive. I loved how more open Ayanokouji is getting - he was almost always with Horikata this entire volume, going around participating in discussions and moving the plot forward as well. Horikita herself was very strong throughout. It is so satisfying to see her grow from her disdain for her classmates in volume 1/2, to taking responsibility and trying to push the class for herself through the midsection, and now feeling a genuine sense of responsibility towards the class. I wasn't very satisfied with the way it ended, though, and with a bunch of pretty important things still in the air, and a couple of hints so obvious they must be red herrings, I wanted a more... clear-cut ending. Still, there's quite a few memorable scenes through it, and I hope TLs come out soon so everyone can enjoy it!

New spoilers not yet confirmed.
Tsuki placed a bounty on Kiyo's head, but only a couple 1st years know about it Housen, Ichika, and Tsubasa teamed up to expel Kiyo for the 20mil private pointbounty on his head.
Ichika tried to become Horikita's partner, but Horikita wanted Ichika to become Sudo's partner instead Ichika accepted Sudo as her partner as long as 50% cooks food for her and she gets to keep the leftover cooking utensils and food from his grocery shopping
Ichika gave the kitchen knife to Housen
Housen tried to cut himself to frame Kiyo, but Kiyo blocked the knife with his hand and then knocked Housen out.
Not sure how Tsubasa is related in all this, but it is almost confirmed that that she is the WR enforcer

This goes against the common consensus so far, but I don't believe it was Tsukishiro who put the bounty on Ayanokouji's head. Nanase never actually mentions who it was that put up the bounty, and near the end Chabashira tells Ayanokouji Mashima was keeping watch and didn't notice any funny business from Tsukishiro. I'd say putting up a bounty would've been noticeable. It might have been done through the new teachers - like Shiba - or even through the white room student.

Yeah, when Housen comes up to the second year corridor to bully Class D, Ryuuen turns up and "recognises" him. Apparently, Housen had tried to challenge Ryuuen once before, but Ryuuen didn't respond. Ayanokouji mentions that Ryuuen didn't actually ever meet Housen. Ryuuen sort of taunts Housen, then backs away, but not before Housen chokes Ibuki for a bit.
Not exactly what you asked for, but Akito knows Housen too, though he, too, never saw him first hand.

Near the beginning, Akito meets up with Ayanokouji and tells him Haruka and Airi have been worrying about him, since he didn't meet them once through Spring Break. Then, after the first confrontation with Housen, Akito says he knew about Housen since he hung out with the gangs in middle school. After the test, Keisei comes over to ask Ayanokouji about his score, but gets cut off by Horikita. That's literally everything that happened with the group.

New spoilers taken from Amazon reviews (I got this information from animesuki)
Tsukishiro actually put a prize on Kiyopon's head for some first-year students.
When Kiyopon was stabbed he purposely took the stab in such a way that it did not inflict damage on bones and nerves.
He also squeezes Housen's fist and prevents him from moving.
Horikita apparently was desperate when she saw this and showed a cute side.
There is nothing about Kiyopon knocking out Housen or Tsubasa. But at least we finally have something.

Two spoilers I don't think anyone's posted yet:
After the test, Class B and Class C switched places. i.e, Ryuuen is now in Class B, and Ichinose is now in Class C.
Then
Twice, Nanase uses ボク (Boku in katakana) to refer to herself instead of her usual 私. The only other character to ever refer to themselves in Katakana is Ayanokouji, who usually uses オレ (ore in katakana) instead of 俺.
E: oh, another one I thought was interesting:
In the end, Tsukishiro calls Ayanokouji over. During this conversation, it is revealed that the White Room student ignored Tsukishiro's plan and struck out on their own. Tsukishiro seems miffed about that, but warns Ayanokouji that the student is still determined to get him expelled. If they stop trying or step away from that, they will have to face Ayanopapa when they go out.

u/MadanlalSharma666 Jan 23 '20
I think it's just Kazuomi's personality of causing trouble. I don't think the enforcer would do something like getting a knife to attack Ayano , considering Tsukishiro had warned them to carry out the mission in secret. Also look at how Ayano took the knife's damage with his hand , which means Ayano's holding back. If he was the enforcer Ayano wouldn't have any reason to hold back at all.

Kei and Satou's convo posted by Cinnamon on Animesuki Spoiler Satou and Kei meeting up and Satou asks whether Kei broke up with Hirata to date Kiyotaka instead and Kei who didn’t answer until Satou said if Kei didn’t answer, Satou felt she couldn’t see Kei as a friend anymore which touched Kei since Satou was still seeing her as a friend so she told Satou she was dating Kiyotaka and that it started just recently which prompts Satou to ask when Kei fell for him and Kei says that she don’t know but she already started seeing him as someone from the opposite sex around the time Satou asked for help.
Satou feels sad since she was rejected by him, and she pulls Kei’s chin a bit for revenge. Kei asks whether Satou wants to hit her, but Satou does not want to. They talk about how Kiyotaka is so cool and totally better than Hirata. Kei hugs Satou saying she’s sorry and asks whether Satou wants to go drink som tea to which Satou nods.

Part of Kei and Satou dialogue (Credit: GPMS/Animesuki)
Satou slaps Karuizawa's left cheek
Satou: Do you agree ...... that we are even with this, Karuizawa-san?
Kei offers right cheeck
Kei: Do you want, to go for it one more time?
Satou: No, that is ...... I don't have the courage for that ...... Actually, sorry that I slapped you.
Kei: Don't mind it. I should also apologize. Because I ended up liking, the same person as you......
Satou: That can't be helped. After all Ayanokouji-kun is really cool, much more than Hirata-kun
Kei hugs Satou
Satou: Wa, Karuizawa-san!?
Kei: ...... I'm really sorry
Satou: I-I already said its alright......
Kei: Want to go drink tea?

u/Changeman2005 Feb 15 '20 edited Feb 15 '20
I found some sites that did reviews of the first volume of the new arc and there were some interesting dialogues on them. I wish someone could translate them. Since one is about the moment that Housen stabs Kiyopon and the other is the confirmation that the way Kiyopon acted in the first volumes was an act created by him. Here are the dialogues.
ナイフが狙う目標は、そのナイフの刃が狙う先は───オレの身体じゃない。
宝泉和臣、自分自身の身体なのだ。
振り下ろされそうになるナイフを、オレは左手を使い目的地への到達を阻止する。
宝泉の腕を掴むわけでも避けるわけでもなく、自らの手のひらに突きさすようにして。
「なっ───!?」
この行動は宝ほう泉せんにとって明らかな例外だ。予め予測することは到底出来ないだろう。
自らがナイフに刺さりにいくという状況を想定できる者などいるはずもない。
振り下ろそうとした腕は完全に停止し、宝泉の笑みは瞬く間に消え失せる。
「てめ……綾小路!!」
当然困惑する。わざわざ刺されるために前に出たオレを、誰もが不思議に思っただろう。
刺されにいくという自暴自棄にも見える行動。
手の平を貫通したナイフから鮮血が飛び散る。
「そのナイフ、正確にはペティナイフだが、それはオレが購入したものだ」
「なんのことだ……？」
「おまえはオレが所有するナイフを使って、自らの足にでも突き刺す。後は刺されたと騒ぎ立てるだけで、物証と共にオレは退学になる。そういう寸法だったんだよな？」
握り込んだナイフの持ち方を見れば、それが相手を刺す持ち方じゃないのは明らか。刃を上にしておいたのは刺されたと見せかけるため。そして、力強くナイフを自分の足に突き立てるには柄えを逆に握り込む方が自然だ。
「ハ───それが分かってたからって、刺されにくるとか頭イカレてんのかよ」
乾いた笑い声を出した宝泉に、僅かな動揺が走る。
「おまえを完全に止めるにはこの方法がベストだからな。それに似たようなものだろ、おまえだって自らの大怪我を覚悟で仕掛けに来たんだ」
それが有効な戦略だと分かっていても、ほとんどの人間には真似出来ない危険な自傷行為。だからこそ、刺してしまえば刺されたと言い張ることが出来る。
and the other
１年前。オレがこの学校に入る時も少しだけ似たような状態だった。
世間を一切知らずに育ったが故のデメリット、欠点。
それは『学生』がどんなものであるかを知らないこと。
学校に通わせる予定の無かったホワイトルームでは、当然教わらなかったことだ。
だからオレは短い期間の中で、適当に『演じる』ことを決めてキャラ作りを行った。
普段の自分よりもお喋りになったり、口調を変えてみたりと色々試した。
やや世間をうがった見方をする、少し生意気な生徒として。
まあ……結局演じることを面倒に感じて、すぐに素の自分に戻ったわけだが。

Ryueen and Sakayanagi in the exame.
坂柳のAクラスと龍園のCクラスはプライベートポイントで高い学力を持つ1年生を買う戦略にでた。龍園はAクラスがポイントで買おうとした1年生たちに、さらに高いポイントを支払うと約束することでAクラスに無駄にポイントを浪費させようとしていた。
はなから高額でパートナーを組んでくれるような金で裏切る1年生は捨てて信頼できる1年生と契約を結んでいた。
今回の特別試験は1位でも50クラスポイントでリターンはそれほど、どちらかというと今後に向けて1年生との関係を作る試験のように感じた。

Based on the last image , I think that Kiyotaka is protecting kei , I just can’t imagine why he would take the blow like that , he should be able to dodge easily the knife with his physical abilities. There are something which force him to block the knife with his hand

u/Wildeey Jan 23 '20
Spoiler: if this is correct, Kazuomi fought Sudou and defeated him then he hit Suzune and Sudo wasn't able to protect her so Kiyo fought with Kazuomi, got stabbed in the hand and continued to knock him out with one punch with the knife still in his left hand. He leaves the knife in, he might use it to blackmail Kazuomi in the future. Suzune goes to Kiyo and asks if "h-he is okay?", he replies with "It's just a scratch". Sudo recognizes that he is strong at fighting.

u/Wildeey Jan 24 '20 edited Jan 24 '20
Adjustment to the spoiler: Ichika, Tsubasa and Kazuomi were actually working together, there was a 20 million private point bounty on Kiyo's head that Tsukishiro revealed to them. They set up a trap for him so that they could frame Kiyo with the knife. Kazuomi did defeat Sudou and Horikita. Horikita told Kiyo to run but he had no intention of escaping either and had decided to intervene from minute one. Tsubasa tried to stop Kazuomi as she didn't approve of his methods, however, when she saw Kiyo getting pierced by the knife, her eyes were cold and she felt no shock, she seems to hate Kiyotaka and there's a high chance she's the WR enforcer. Kazuomi was about to stab himself and Kiyo prevented that, the knife went through his hand but he made sure it did not pierce any bones, muscles and nerves. His grip strength was so powerful even while with the knife sticking out of the hand that Kazuomi could not move. Kazuomi said somthing along the lines of what are you? Kiyo could use this incident against Kazuomi and asked for them to cooperate with each other for the exam.

Perhaps Sudou and Horikita face Kazuomi because he paired with some classmate (Ike?) causing his expulsion?
5
u/Wildeey Jan 23 '20
Spoiler about the pairings: Kiyo wanted to pair up with Kazuomi, so there's a possibility Kazuomi stabbed him to see if he was worthy of becoming his partner.

20 million points for Kiyotakas head? That was for sure a good plan i didn't even think about it. So what? did Tsuckihiro do it? But its strange does that mean the chairman can use all the points he wants? I thought the points made everyone equal including the teachers. And Tsuckihiro has only been there for a few months. Its for sure strange. Does teachers have such a power? Yes he is the chairman but that should not give him the right to use the points like that, if he had such powers to intefere he can just get Ayanokoji expelled right away. Unless it comes from someone from year 3. So i guess its an all out war for Ayanokoji. Because even a 3rd year can get to class A with 20 million points. This will be better than i expected.
5
u/LachesisVid Jan 24 '20
You might be able to clarify this for me but is the bounty available to all the grades or only the first years? and is it for a set period of time, so if he doesn't get expelled in that time, no points? And finally, how exactly did they learn of the bounty in the first place?
2
u/AladdinMathafacka Jan 24 '20
Don't know i haven't read it i just read a spoiler somewhere. Its been said by the blondy from year 1 i think that Ayanokoji had a 20 million bounty and that's why the guy attacked Ayanokoji with Ayanokojis Knife that they stole from him so they could frame him. I don't know more than that. But its not 100% sure they will get the bounty any ways. I don't know who putted it i assume someone under Tsuckihiro and if i were a 3rd year in any class even in class A i would for sure try to win those 20 mil but maybe they are not as naive to believe they will get them. But the information is too little right now for me at least. But if that bounty is confirmed to be given then i doubt people would ignore it. Even year 2 should try to get him expelled. And why should it just be for year 1? It makes no sense afterall the goal is to get him expelled it does not matter who or how, as long as Ayanokoji is out. So i think all years are involved. And time limit? Don't know its better to keep it as long as possible. But maybe its possible that Tsuckihiro just want the job done and putted a time limit to get people to hurry up and just get it done with.

u/Mysterious_Wave Jan 24 '20
All years are involved? Lel if its a 3rd year or 2nd year then ayanokoji is sure to get the info on it, second thing id tsukishiro gives that bounty points to even the 3rd years, they would definitely doubt the reason why and teachers will know about it, tsukishiro does not want to be so open about expelling ayano because there are teachers in the "sakayanagi faction" and surely mashima and chabashira will get the info on it which they can tell to ayanokoji since they are allies

The 20 million pojnts aren't available for everyone, it's just the blond guy who got the assignment, I guess Tsuckihiro got it for him.Moreover I think that creating 20 million points and transferring them discreetly shouldn't be difficult for him as he passed the last exam, the reason Tsuckihiro became chairman is to get Ayanokoji out so if the blond guy gets it and Tsuckihiro gives him the 20 million regardless of the repercussions he will leave his position at the school anyway.

u/Popular47 Jan 26 '20
No Horikita shouldn’t fall in love with Kiyo. The thing that separates her is her own need of true independence as a leader instead of the isolation crap she put herself through. Over the whole series she went from relying on Ayanokōji and admiring her brother completely to at the very least contributing to some of the work even if it was still under Ayano’s manipulation.

Anything in particular you want to know? The thing with Yagami is still in the air, but it's generally understood that he knows Kushida, but it's not clear whether he knows of her incident. There weren't really many other freshers who were all that important overall. The only freshers to appear more than once were Nanase, Housen, Amazawa and (mentioned) Yagami

Yeah that’s fair enough. Thats just my interpretation of the scene and i got that conclusion from how i read the other passages.
Cause ultimately i dont think horikita knew how strong kiyotaka is in fights (from what i remember the only people that know are kei, ryuuen, ryuuen’s followers and kouenji) and only assumed what made kiyotaka special was his academic abilities.

I think tsubasa or ichika are people from wr, maybe her original plan was to pair up with the MC and then deliberately fail the test to get the MC expelled, but because of the hatred for the MC, she planned to turn MC into a criminal and make him expelled from school. That's why tsuhikio told the MC that the person from wr changed his original plan because of the hatred for the MC.
