At Fumizuki Academy, students are strictly divided into classes based on their test results. Classes range from Class A, with the best facilities anyone can offer, all the way down to Class F, with low dining tables, rotten tatami mats and other worn-out facilities. Students can change classes by competing using the Examination Summons Battle system, or ESB. They summon characters with scores equivalent to their test marks and use them to compete with other classes.
