An OVA series is a few episodes that have a different/no plot compared to the original. These episodes will be marked OVA when shown to avoid confusion.
Series that have OVA episodes: Baka Test Lucky Star Black Butler Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun (only one OVA episode) etc.
Filler episodes, on the other hand, are official episodes in a series that have no relevance to the plot, and are just for fun. Long running series are prone to this, whether it's just a pantai episode atau a whole arc. Series with filler episodes: naruto (So much filler!) Bleach Durarara (12.5) TMOHS (So much that it seems that the series loses its plot all together.) Black Butler (random mysteries that hold little importance) etc.
Also, something that might also bring up confusion is something called spinoff series. These are similar to OVAs, but usually have lebih episodes. Also, a big difference is that the drawing style is changed from regular into chibi. These spinoff series are ment for comedic purposes, making jokes about certain characters atau their abilities.
Series that have spinoffs made of them: Baka Test (This is the one of the only series I know with an OVA and a spinoff) Attack on Titan (or so I've heard) Toradora naruto (spinoff is called Rock Lee and his Ninja Pals) Lucky bintang (this one has no chibis, and is called The Miyakawa Family's Hunger) etc.
IMPORTANT NOTE: NOT ALL SERIES HAVE OVAs/FILLERS/SPINOFFS. SOME HAVE ONE, atau OCCASIONALLY TWO atau THREE, BUT OTHERS HAVE NONE, BUT INSTEAD, ANOTHER SEASON. too many caps~
Hope I helped! Below is a pic of Durarara's filler episode, 12.5
