I don't see a thread of this but it was brought to my attention a few days ago, but now every outrage merchant on Youtube has jumped on it and this random ecchi anime has become immortalized. The Streisand effect.



An army of weebs has raised the profile of the series by rating it where possible. MAL being a pretty prominent website has been effectively the imdb of anime for a long time and fans of certain series have always skewed ratings or whatever popular show but I haven't seen anything like this before.

I want to explain the situation with a source but I'm trying to avoid lending traffic to the outrage merchants of Youtube and their morally wholesome opposition (Funi/ANN and the like).

Ishuzoku Reviewers

Countless diverse races, from perky fairies to oozing slimes, inhabit the world. Naturally, such a melting pot of creatures has a broad and alluring variety of brothels. With so many options to choose from, it is hard to decide with which succu-girl to have a meaningful, interpersonal...

myanimelist.net

"In our world, the human race constantly debates about several important issues, such as: which girl is the best girl? How good is something as fapping material? Which fetish is the sexiest?

Accompany these great warriors as they present us with different girls, different opinions, different boners, and show us that the fantasy world may not be all that different from ours. "

Translation of the title is Interspecies Reviewers. It's about brothels inhabited by humanoid creatures where our protagonists visit to give them a "review" and find the best one?

Funimation Statement on dropping their simuldub and streaming of the series;

"After careful consideration, we determined that this series falls outside of our standards. We have the utmost respect for our creators so rather than substantially alter the content, we felt taking it down was the most respectful choice. "

Like most people I just enjoy watching the blowup against Funimation and their Sony overlords.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

What is the problem? Just watch it as is and drop Funimation.

It got pulled from JPN stations as well it seems.

AFAIK, one station (tokyo MX I think?). It's still airing. AFAIK.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

Gonna watch this when I have a boner.

 

[Mista]

This anime is sitting on #2 in MAL. What the hell? What is this anime even about?

 

[Tesseract]

wtf did i just read

stanky danky 420, this

 

[Sakura]

Why on Earth did they decide to dub it in the first place then?
And who even watches dubs?

 

[Jill Valentine]

I must confess that my OP is incoherent, you're right.

This anime is sitting on #2 in MAL. What the hell? What is this anime even about?

Within the story, they review brothels inhabited by humanoid/monster girl creatures.

 

[kingbean]

It sounds funny. I'd watch it if I cared enough.

So the people that are making it popular are teenagers and weebs? Noted. Thank you

 

[Master Of Illusion]

I checked the uncensored version of this "legendary 3rd episode" that got this canned from FUNI out of curiosity.

This is porn. This is straight up just anime fucking. Every subgenre of hentai is covered in a span of 20 minutes.

 

[DESTROYA]

Gonna watch this when I have a boner.

You mean like right now?

 

[Pejo]

So I guess no amount of light beams and steam clouds can save it, huh?

I have to check this out later.

 

[kiiltz]

unironically aoty

 

[Shouta]

Just to give a bit of context, Ishuzoku Reviewers is about a group of folks that visit monster girl brothels in their town and elsewhere and then review their experiences at that establishment. As you can imagine, lots of shenanigans and funny shit happen with a bit of sexy. The manga is fairly tame. It has the jokes and references stuff. The anime though, they decided to just go whole hog. They just animated everything, even the references the manga makes to certain acts, which is why we ended up with episode 3. It's pretty admirable how much fun the team animating it is having though.

 

[InterMusketeer]

I mean it's pretty much softcore porn, but I think that was pretty clear from the start. Cancelling it partway through just makes them look uninformed. Funimation is a dumb company, but then they don't operate in my region anyway.

No, just incels.

 

[Cybrwzrd]

I really need to watch this for scientific research purposes.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

If you're going to have [SEE STAFF POST] in the thread title, at least put a parody staff post in your OP. Talk about getting blue-balled.

 

[PrCat88]

Funimation has High School DxD, but this was the anime that crossed the line?

Who do you think watches japanese cartoons?

No, just incels.

 

[GreyHorace]

What the hell? Since we did the people distributing anime become a bunch of prudes? I remember back in the day when companies localized some risque anime titles and used the outrage for some free publicity.

It used to be that the Christian right complained about this stuff. Now it's the distributors themselves. What strange times we live in.

 

[Mista]

Normal people do watch. You can identify them by what they watch

Ahh the good old days when it wasn't mainstream but you could still walk into walmart and see a Gantz dvd with the top of a womans head cut off. Good times. Normalfriends ruined everything.

I just understood this

Tell me how you really feel Mista-kun, no need to be all "Eminem" about it.

"Why yes i too love Japanese cartoons and use them as my avatar while not being weeb, how could you tell?"

Imagine wasting my time on you?

Now now the first step of treating any disease is admiting you have it.

The North American release of Urotsukidoji was very heavily censored. You want to see some shit, try watching the original Japanese version. It became a franchise in Japan and various sequels and reboots were made that never saw the light of day in North America which continued to up the ante on ultra-violence too.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Looks like pure virgin fiction. Funimation are trash but so is this.

I've seen the original uncensored Urotsukidoji OAVs all the way up to the Third series. I've watched that edited film release and thought it to be terrible. What's the damn point of censoring hentai?

Also, who watches hentai in a theater? Better to watch it at home where you can fap to your heart's content without being bothered.

 

[Durask]

I watched it before Funimation pulled it.
I thought it was really funny granted I like crude and tasteless jokes

Also it is very educational for example I did not know that female hyenas have a penis.

Care to tell us the origin of the comic in your avatar?


HOELIER THAN THOU thread smh they are just cartoons people. I don't even watch this man but come on. At least this isn't SAO.

Not all species of hyena's. Strangely enough in this same season another anime also brought this up. Muranese.

 

[Ixiah]

Gentlemen you had my curiosity ... but now you have my attention.
In all seriousness, does no one here remember kite or mezza forte ?
This anime is weaksauce xD

 

[Robot Carnival]

the original manga is definitely not pushing that hentai boarder as the anime is doing, but I feel that over all it's still fine. there's plenty of adult anime that's not hentai out there and this kinda falls in the same area. honestly don't see what the big deal is as long as you make it adult only.

side note: if Samuel L. Jackson can openly say he watches anime ("and hentai too!"), I feel like that's a fine enough pass for it lol

 

[manfestival]

I watched the first episode and well... It was actually pretty entertaining. Not feeling the hentai scenes. There was no haha out loud moment from the first episode but I enjoyed the guy humor about it. Honestly the whole debacle of 500 year old elf babe vs 50 year human woman was genuinely entertaining.

 

[Pejo]

I get the humor they're going for in the show, it's not bad. In this 90s there would be nothing particularly risque about anything in this show, it's just modern day evangelists making a big deal about nothing.

Anime became too mainstream in the west. Western normies fucking ruin everything.

This show wouldn't have made broadcast TV in the 90s at all. It's not all that crazy for the OAVs of the era but definitely not TV. Anime has gotten more sexy since then on average too.
