Baka and Test Review

Mini Review

Pro: Unique animation backgrounds and design, some legit funny moments and character interactions

Con: Excessive repetitive comedy can become tiring and makes no room for any drama which in this case they try anyway, wasted potential

Final Thoughts: You know how the media likes to shove a bunch of rumors and trends in your face and only a few seem legit or at least interesting to consider. Then everyone just moves on to the next big thing like the previous trend never happened. That annoyed feeling you get from that is basically this show in a nutshell. Yes, it’s possible to laugh while watching and the animation and characters are not that bad. But much like the media, this show would have befitted having picked up more interesting and substantial information to broadcast rather than pandering on an endless cycle of comedy stuff you have seen time and time again. Instead of using a new creative setup to make for new creative comedy they take a new creative setup and do comedy we have seen time and time again. This makes the story and characters tired and it leaves us with a half-baked comedy with not much filling.

Final Score: 2 stars
