English: "Idiots, Tests, and Summoned Beings"

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encycloped...me.php?id=10816

Basically, you do tests, and then bring the results to battle against other classes. Tests have never been this serious before.

I got the first eight episodes of this series earlier this week, and after watching the first one, I'm half O_O and half XD.

Anyone else watching this series?

This is probably my favorite show of the season. I feel that it has the perfect blend of "lol wtf" and "proper" humor.

It's a pretty decent series... it, alongside Omamori Himari, Ookami Kakushi and Ladies x Butlers are the shows I am watching this time around...

Ladies versus Butlers! is also pretty good, but the fanservice is a bit too excessive for my taste. Yeah, fanservice can be funny, but if there's too much, then I feel that it detracts from the show.

Well the staff that is working on LxB also did that overly fanservice-y show Kanakon or something...

Yes, it is the same staff.

Baka To Test To Shoukanjuu is also one of my favorites. It is a really great stress-reliever. For me, at least.

and.. Hideyoshi = fanservice? o_o"

Was going to try this out, but after reading the part about "summoning characters", I gave up laugh.gif

So I managed to finish the ninth episode tonight, which had a bit too much yaoi, and TONS of laughs.

Also, I finally saw the episode that spurred me to get the series in the first place (episode eight). Now if I can get a GIF of Akihisa's summon replicating Shinn's move with the Excalibur straight thrust.

I'm actually a few episodes behind on all my shows (except for "The Pacific"), but I'm going to have to chime in on the Hideoyoshi matter.

Actually, I've got nothing to say. He is making me feel funny inside, though...

Not entirely too sure but i think i might've caught a glimpse of this a few days ago (it was being screened by the anime club whilst on my way to class). It seemed pretty funny and was getting quite the laugh too. From what i saw it has definitely perked my interest.

Fanservice isn't one of the shows major factor is it? That shit gets so degrading when in excess.

There's a bit of fanservice, but it's not that bad.

Just watch out for the trap.

So, the series is coming to a close within the next episode or so. Episode 11 was very well done, and I might need to check out the original novels for more.

Hopefully the ending to this series is at least better than Ladies vs Butlers' 12th episode...

I haven't seen the 12th episode yet, but word on the net is that there will be episode 13. Who knows what they'll try to spring on us then?
