Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu: Matsuri

This is your typical OVA in-between seasons filler. Expect fan-service, no character development, and probably something with water be it beach, pool or hot spring. Anything to get the characters clothes off.

The comedy is about as good as it was in the main show. I remember chuckling a few times here and there. There really isn't a whole lot to say about it. It's just a couple of shorts with the characters you've come to know and love from Baka and Test doing what you'd expect them to do. Nothing special really stood out so I'm feeling like just giving it my default average grade ... of mediocrity. 7/10 for being better than watching paint dry, but not something I'd choose to watch again if given the option. Honestly it's getting harder and harder to write reviews for these one off episodes that exist as there own entries. I may have to rethink my "write a review for everything on my list" plan.

Well, well, well, what do we have here? It's Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu: Matsuri, or as I like to call it, 'Stupid Test Summoning Festival'. And let me tell you, this anime is like a clown car that just keeps getting more ridiculous.

The concept is simple - students battle each other with avatars summoned from their test scores. It's like if Pokemon and standardized testing had a love child.

The humor is absurd and over-the-top, and the characters are all as thick as two short planks. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion, but somehow, you can't look ... away.

But let's be real here, this anime is about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the face. The jokes are hit or miss, and the animation is nothing to write home about.

Overall, I'd give a score of 6/10. It's a silly and nonsensical anime that's perfect for when you want to turn your brain off and just enjoy the stupidity.

Well, well, well, apa yang kita punya di sini? Ini adalah Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu: Matsuri, atau yang saya sebut sebagai 'Stupid Test Summoning Festival'. Dan biarkan saya memberi tahu Anda, anime ini seperti mobil badut yang semakin menjadi-jadi.

Konsepnya sederhana - siswa-siswa bertarung satu sama lain dengan avatar yang dipanggil dari nilai ujian mereka. Ini seperti jika Pokemon dan ujian standar memiliki anak yang sama.

Humornya absurd dan berlebihan, dan karakter-karakternya semuanya begitu bodoh. Seperti menonton kecelakaan kereta dalam gerakan lambat, tetapi entah bagaimana, Anda tidak dapat melepas pandangan.

Tapi mari kita jujur, anime ini sehalus palu lumpur di wajah. Lebih banyak lelucon yang tidak lucu, dan animasinya tidak ada yang istimewa.

Secara keseluruhan, saya memberikan nilai 6/10. Ini adalah anime bodoh dan tidak masuk akal yang sempurna untuk saat Anda ingin mematikan otak dan hanya menikmati kebodohan

Too many times are the same jokes recycled and reused.

Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu: Matsuri is the OVA extension that was released before the premiere of the second season. It continues on from (around) the end of the first season and follows the main characters at a festival held at their school.

Although occasionally witty and interesting, this OVA series loses its charm quickly. Nothing in this OVA series is new - it recycles the same kind of plot format as the first season. Some may argue that this is fine, but in this case it does not do much justice to the series as a ... whole.

The characters are the same as the first season - all with their own unique individual personalities. But also as with the first season, there's not much development at all. As you'll clearly see, none of the characters advance in their relationships with other.

Art and sound is still on point, as with the first season. You can see the detail that the studio put into its art and audio.

All in all, Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu: Matsuri is not bad - it just doesn't do anything new.
