Class Is in Room X-01: Difference between revisions

This is a direct result of [[The Law of Conservation of Detail]].

In Japan, classes remain constant, with all classes except for PE taking place in one room, and the teachers being the ones cycling around instead of the students. The students in the class also tend to not get split from year to year very often, sometimes even using the same room and just changing the nameplate. As such, this finds its way into [[Japanese Media]] quite often, since [[They Just Didn't Care|the writers can't find any reason in themselves to care]] about which class the students are in, since there's no real difference and they'll all move up together in the same class anyway. Rather than actually work on choosing a number for the class, they decided to stick with an A or 1. Very rarely is there any deep meaning behind why it had to be A/1.

From a writing stance, this is convenient for keeping the main cast together without having to [[Hand Wave]] anything, since the target audience is used to that system and would readily accept it. What is not readily accepted is that the class number/letter tends to always be A or 1, and therefore this trope comes into being.
