Shimoneta: A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Doesn't Exist - The Complete Series [Blu-ray]

Very funny anime ! Just a little bit naughty.

UPDATE 6/2: I paid $20.99 for this barely 3 days ago and now it's being sold for only $15.99 🤦🏻‍♀️ So just a heads up, be patient don't rush to buy something cause you might be able to get it for much cheaper in a day or two 🙃Before I get into my review I just wanted to say this: If you haven't watched this then DO NOT buy it. Go watch some clips of it or watch an episode a lot of places out there online where you can watch a couple episodes for free and without having to stream, do that get a feel for it then if you like it buy it. Literally all the negative reviews on here are from people who bought this before watching it. It makes absolutely no sense to buy a DVD set of a show you haven't watched before.Now back to my review: This show is hands down the funniest and cutest anime i've ever watched, it has me dying laughing and always puts me in a good mood. As another reviewer said it's a lot like family guy and other adult cartoons. It's fan service heavy obviously but not in the typical sense it's a comedy and has a lot of heart in it. The only thing bad about it is that it's so short only 12 episodes but supposedly they're going to be making a 2nd season (praying they do 😩❤️)Also a couple of details: This set comes with 2 DVDs and a digital copy of the series from Funimation (tbh i'm not really sure what the point of a digital copy is especially when you have the actual DVDs, everytime I get one I never use it so I kinda think it's pointless but you could always give it away or I guess it'd be good if you traveled) The first DVD has 1-9 episodes and the second has 10-12 episodes. There's also some extras but they really suck. Just some commentary, commercials for the show and some bs where "mom's" watch clips of the show... on paper it sounds funny but I promise you it's not. Just a bunch of backwards women who don't even know how to put on headphones supposedly, it seems really scripted tbh. So nothing special in the extras. Would've been really dope if they added better stuff in the extras tho.So all in all i'm happy with my purchase 👍🏼 it's a perfect anime to me anyways but as I said before you need to watch it yourself, don't go by reviews or what anyone else says. It's not worth spending money on something you may or may not like.

- Comments: This anime is great if you're an anime viewer who's into crude humor such as Family Guy, and The Hangover movies. This is fan-service heavy, so keep that in mind in case you are a viewer who may not find that sort of thing interesting. As such, I only recommend this for those accustomed to the Ecchi genre.===========================================================================================================- Synopsis: The emphasis of this anime is that society reaches a state of strong moral discipline by attempting to cleanse anything regarded as perverted. When you think about it, that doesn't sound so bad on paper, since society is always trying to improve themselves in various ways that they can. Such as cracking down on crime. However, as the saying goes: The path to hell is paved with good intentions. As such there will always be those unwillingly to let go, which generates factions of opposition. This anime portrays the daily lives of these students as they explore the concepts of perversion and sexuality.- Analysis: This anime also addresses an interesting complication as a result of such a world: People will be ignorant to various notions such as the process of how human babies are brought into the world. As the anime Kenzen Robo Daimidaler emphasized, perverted acts aren't necessarily evil as it is essential for things such as increasing the population. Of course, some order is necessary.Curiosity is also a problem in of itself. If a person is told not to do something, chances are: they will probably do it out of curiosity or defiance. For example: To push the big, red button, or to not push the button. That is the question (curiosity killed the cat). Just saying...- Features: English and Japanese audio with English subtitles. Refer to my low-quality PS Vita pictures as a reference. There's 12 episodes on 2 Blu-rays, and 12 episodes on 2 DVDs, for a total of 4 discs. Run-time is about 5 hours long. Rated TV-MA for sexual innuendo, strong sexual content, and some nudity.===========================================================================================================- Recommendations: Prison School, Binbougami ga!, Shomin Sample, D-Frag!, Kenzen Robo Daimidaler, Dakara Boku wa H, ga Dekinai., Hagure Yuusha no Estetica, Hataraku Maou-sama!, Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to, Mayo Chiki!, Fight Ippatsu!

Shimoneta is a stone cold classic, with a sense of humor that’s fairly unrivaled in the field of overtly dirty humor. It’s not just empty nonsense either. There’s surprisingly a lot of heart here, and the overall message is one of “sex positivity” rather than just being horny all the time. I don’t typically enjoy most series with excessive fan service, but Shimoneta really surprised me. Also, the closing credits song is a total banger!It’s pretty bare bones as far as rereleases go, but the show is as fantastic as ever, and everything looks great too. It features both English and Japanese audio, but I highly recommend going with the Japanese audio, since the VA’s are significantly more lively and fun. The English dub is certainly serviceable, but the characters definitely lose a bit of “oomph” compared to the original cast.If you’re not expecting a huge host of bonus features, and you just want to own the series on Blu Ray, the price is still well worth it at around $20.

Honestly I was skeptical at first reading the other reviews and seeing reviews of people saying there DVD arrived broke or not playing but after contacting seller and them answering my inquiries I bought this and it came brand new and works completely, great series and service. Thank you for allowing me to add this to my anime collection 😎
