I think I give it a 7.5/10. Over all it was a really fun ride and I enjoyed the characters. I cried several times. The cast of villains wasn't the strongest though, when it comes to Shonen elements it peaked at Nagisa vs the crazy 'dad' guy, and even that disappointed me a little because they didn't give that 'bloodlust' the show talks so much about a chance to breathe. There were twists about people's identities that were cool on paper but weren't explored as well as they could have been. The boyfriend was a lame final boss reveal that pretty much existed to let Korosensei protect the class one more time. I would've preferred if the story went all the way with the principal instead of having him bow out.

It kinda mishandles some topics like Nagisa's abuse imo. In general I would have liked to see some deeper development on characters like Nagisa; to be clear, the ensemble cast is handled really well and I knew everyone, but some depth was inevitably sacrificed. The acknowledgment of Nagisa as the strongest assassin happens in small bursts instead of a continuous display of his unfolding potential. Often the show comes out and tells the viewer Nagisa is strong like when he snuck up on Karasuma. We don't truly see him flexing his abilities until some moments among the last 10 episodes.

Decent soundtrack. Good character designs. The lighting in the finale was pretty bad though, I get what they were going for but visual clarity would've made for a better choice.

I love Nagisa!
