Classroom of the Elite‘s official Twitter account posted on September 27 night the cover visual for the light novel’s Year 2 Volume 8, which is slated to release on October 25 in Japan.

The newly-revealed illustration shows two students of Kakeru Ryuen’s class, his loyal class member Daichi Ishizaki sitting with a smile, together with Takeko Nishino, the female student who had the courage to talk back to the class leader and refuse his request during his inspection on classmates’ phones in Year 1 Volume 6, standing with a smartphone in her left hand. The official Twitter account says “Where in the world are they..?!” with an emoji of a bus, which suggests that they are en route to somewhere outside of the high school, such as school trip.
