Period 1: Story
For every educational institute there will always be a class which even though is not a very well publicize fact, "The Last Class" and Fumizuki Academy made no exception. The academy's harsh policy of bullying the "stupid" in order to encourage them to succeed in education (using their own standards of measurements) doesn't mean the academy does not provide alternative solution for the "Idiots" to escape their ill fate.

Who would imagine Fumizuki Academy, a well known academy for developing the "Summoned" Beast Battle system would have a school festival like all those other normal schools. The OVA provides the same plot device like in the original series. F class trying their best to get better facilities for themselves, Akhisa working hard for Himeji's sake, Yuuji running away from his inevitable marriage with Shouko, Muttsurini taking more pervertic shots and yet not having to deal with the wrath of his female peers (lucky bastard) and so on and so on... Expect more nonsensical story courtesy of the "Idiots"

Period 2: Art and Music
Improvement in the "Summon" battle animation but to not such a major extent. BGM are recycled from the original series however new opening and ending songs are introduced. (Though by the same artist)
Now, a little not known fact, the ending theme for this OVA, "Getsuyou wa Kirai" or english translation "I Hate Monday" was responsible for inspiring Rebecca Black's "Friday" In both song they constantly repeated the day name in the lyrics. Only difference is Rebecca Black loves Friday and the Baka cast hates Monday. Alright, you know I'm just kidding right...
And who doesn't get bored of Akhisa's insufferable screams of misery? Yes, the seiyuus have not lost their passion and emotions from the first season.

Period 3: Philosophy
A wise old man once said, "The bigger the size of your harem, the higher the number of cockblocking you're bound to get"
Ok, maybe it wasn't a wise man but a horny old man. What's the difference anyways?
However this concept does not apply to Baka To Test. Even though Akhisa
has only the minimum requirement to have his own "Harem" he is constantly harass by his fellow FFF members.

Period 4: Overall
In a nutshell, the 2 OVAs are practically just the sum of all the stupidity and humor brought upon us in the first season. If you have watch the 1st season over a hundred times (like me... sigh why did I have to do that....) you might not find the jokes as humorous as it used to be. Nevertheless the OVA was sticking according to the manga and thus was the preparation for what's in store for us in season 2. If you're a fan of the first season and not don't get bored easily by recycled jokes, then you might as well attend this full hour class of Idiocracy.

Great minds think alike. Fools seldom differs. Idiots will always be idiots...

Haremu Kingu,
Signing off!

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.
