Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu

January 29, 2007
Finished Light Novel
バカとテストと召喚獣
Baka and Test
SummaryThe protagonist is a guy who is among the stupidest of the stupidest in the school. In this school, your grades can, under the supervision of teachers, take a virtual form to do combat! However, if you leave an examination half way, you get zero marks. A bright and cute girl, Mizuki Himeji, was having a high fever during the examination. Despite her potential to be the second highest scorer in the level, she obtained zero marks for having left due to her illness and is thus allocated to the worst class, class F.

Grades mean almost everything. For Class A, they have a smart-looking teacher, a plasma TV as big as the entire wall as their blackboard, personal laptops, personal air-cons, refrigerators, adjustable seats and all kinds of different appliances. Within the refrigerator, there are all kinds of drinks and snacks. Their ceiling is made of glass, the wall lets them put up high-class drawings and plants. As for Class F, the worst class…They have Japanese desks and seat paddings. Their blackboard is dirty and there is no chalk even! Someone complains that the leggings of his desk is broken, so the teacher asks “Didn’t we distribute some glue to stick wood together? Glue it back yourself later.” Another complains that wind is blowing in from the broken window. The teacher says “I got it. I will apply for plastic bags and invisible glue to fix it later.” There are spider webs everywhere, not a patch of the wall is clean. A unique moldy smell spreads across the entire room, it must be from the old tatamis used to tile the floor. This is the status of class F.

The protagonist feels displeased at such an arrangement, and seeks help from his friends to try to make a change through summoning war!! And they devise all kinds of plans to try to beat the famous class A, intending to get class A’s classroom and equipment if they win!!

バカとテストと召喚獣
SummaryAkihisa Yoshii is a student at Fumizuki Academy, a brand new, prestigious school which has implemented unique educational methodologies. One of those is the Placement Exam, which divides the students into classes based on their scores, with the best going to Class A and the worst to Class F. The higher the class, the more privileges and luxuries they have. Yoshii, placed into Class 2-F, is also labeled the biggest idiot in the class on top of everything else.

The most important event at the school is the Summoner Test War, made possible by advanced technology where the students summon creatures and wage war against other classes for a chance to earn the assets of that class. Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu! tells the hilarious story of Yoshii during Class 2-F’s battles against the other classes on their way to the top.

Baka & Test: Summon the Beasts
バカとテストと召喚獣
SummaryFumizuki Academy is not a typical Japanese high school. This unique institution has implemented a new and innovative system to sort its students. At the end of their freshman year, students take a test that divides up the student body. The highest scorers are placed into A class, all the way down until F class, for the lowest of the low.

Unfortunately for Akihisa Yoshii, his supposedly “great” intellect was not quite enough for such a test, and he is now stuck at the bottom of F class. Naturally, F class has the worst facilities: not only rotten tatami mats and broken tables, but also outdated equipment and worn out furniture. On the bright side, his friend Yuuji Sakamoto is in the same class, and to everyone’s surprise, the genius girl Mizuki Himeji has also ended up in the same class due to an unforeseen fever on the day of the test.

Unsatisfied with their perquisites, F class rallies behind Yuuji, determined to take on the higher-tiered classes in order to seize their perks by using the school’s Examinations Summon Battle system. The participants can summon fantasy characters—whose power levels are equal to their student’s test scores—in an all-out battle. Will F class be able to rise to the top, or will they live up to everyone’s expectations and fail?
