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

SHIMONETA is a raucous, anti-censorship satire uninterested in woke narratives. Its humor skews crude, but it avoids identity politics and ideological preaching.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This show’s narrative satirizes extremism in social regulation and exaggerates its setting for comedic effect, with characters reflecting traditional anime tropes rather than identity politics. There’s little focus on race, gender, or sexuality over personality or story needs. Forced representation and hyper-competent diverse characters aren’t present, keeping the narrative relatively non-woke by modern standards.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show lampoons censorship, state power, and society’s repression of natural instincts more than it targets religion, family, masculinity, or traditional morality. If anything, it’s arguing for more openness and the value of taboo. Gender roles are exaggerated for laughs, not outright subverted with ideological intent.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Dissenting views on censorship abound, with no clear ideological monoculture. Characters hold clashing beliefs, and the satire itself targets the suppression of free expression rather than pushing modern identity orthodoxies.
