In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time completely dodges the modern woke checklist, delivers raunchy comedy, and centers itself in utterly apolitical, classic anime antics. Not woke, if anything, a guilty pleasure for those tired of preachy media.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show is more interested in risqué humor and harem shenanigans than pushing any modern ideological message. Character traits are rooted in classic anime tropes rather than identity checklists, keeping story motivations traditional, if outrageous.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional masculinity and family dynamics are played for comedy, but the show doesn’t take aiming at religion or traditional morality seriously. If anything, it lampoons male weakness rather than trying to 'fix' it with wokeness.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative and classic viewpoints aren't villainized, if anything, the show gleefully ignores modern ideological battles. There’s no pressure to conform to a particular worldview except the usual pursuit of slapstick romance.
