A few months back, Madman Entertainment announced that they would be releasing the English dubbed version of Baka Test ~Summon The Beats~ to Australian shores starting this November on both DVD and Blu-ray. However, a recent post on their website shows that the Blu-ray release of the series has been delayed until December citing manufacturing issues with their overseas supplier. The current new release date for it is the 14th December 2011. For those who cannot wait, the DVD release is unhampered and due for release on the 16th November.
When a fight breaks out at Fumizuki Academy, nobody throws a single punch. Instead, the students utilize the school’s technology to summon Avatars, pint-sized stand-ins with battle powers based on academic ability. That “academic ability” part is bad news for Yoshii: he’s an idiot, stuck in lowly Class F with the slackers. If these misfits want to escape their dump of a classroom and earn some respect, they’ll have to fight their way up the ranks and take on Class A, the Academy’s brightest students. It’s going to be tough, that’s for sure, but once the underachievers of Class F get motivated, they don’t give up – and Yoshii can’t even spell surrender!
