Baka & Test – Summon the Beasts 2
Synopsis
The blockheads of Class F return with more misadventures! Rather than desperately competing against the elite students in Class A for better facilities, they have other problems at hand. While the girls are constantly vying for the boys' attention, Akihisa Yoshii and Yuuji Sakamoto are being blackmailed by a stalker who threatens to reveal their most embarrassing secrets to the whole school. Moreover, everyone's avatar starts to behave strangely. Filled with more nosebleeds and eye-pokes, the boys of Class F must work together to discover the stalker's identity and deal with the misfortunes that come with love among fools.

Audience Consensus
The second season is a mixed bag. Some viewers find it hilarious and appreciate the character development, while others criticize it for lacking a strong plot and relying too heavily on generic rom-com tropes. The humor and animation are generally well-received, but the overall consensus is that it doesn't live up to the first season for many viewers.
Strengths
- Hilarious and entertaining with unique battle system and amazing cast of characters.
- Good character development, especially regarding backstories.
- Animation retains manga feel with whacky expressions.
Weaknesses
- Story-less, plot-less, one-dimensional harem with unoriginal rom-com elements.
- Too many shots of female characters' bodies.
- Lacks cohesive plot; feels like a filler season.
- Overuse of nosebleeds.
- The arc centered around peeping on the girls lasted way too long.
