The show Assassination Classroom was one of Shonen Jump's major series for a time, but like many other series lately that are incredibly popular, it came to an end quicker than people expected it to. The premise of having a teacher who had to be killed or else he would blow up the planet was fascinating enough that everyone fell in love with it. The series even got its own live action film.
The class of 3-E really struggled over the series to come up with the right skills to take Koro-Sensei out. The women were already some incredible fighters, so the male students had to step it up in order to keep up.

Koro-Sensei helped him to separate from those tentacles and learn that strength wasn't the only thing that mattered, which was important because his powers were endangering him. At that time he was stronger than anyone else, but after losing them he was still a formidable member of Class 3-E, relying on his ability to create gadgets to win.
