Time for a Counterattack is the hundred and first chapter of Assassination Classroom. Running eighteen pages in Volume 12, it continues the Reaper storyline as Class 3-E answers the assassin's opening move.
Summary
Standing at number one hundred and one, this chapter is titled Time for a Counterattack, or Hangeki no Jikan in the original.

The listed cast is led by Hiroto Maehara and Hinano Kurahashi, with The Reaper present once more, framing an entry where the students shift from defense toward striking back.
Key Events
Rather than a plotted synopsis, the source records who steps onto the page and in what sequence. Nearly the full class turns out, from Karma Akabane and Nagisa Shiota to Kaede Kayano, Rio Nakamura, and Itona Horibe, joined by handler Tadaomi Karasuma. The Reaper's continued presence keeps the confrontation at the center of the chapter, while the broad turnout underscores a collective response rather than a solo effort.
