Shitcom

One minute. Just one minute. That's all the time needed for Takena's legendary work, "Shitcom" to discard all of your principles of "anime". It's just one minute long. Watch it. You have nothing to lose.

I know what you're thinking. What the hell is this guy thinking? Rating an anime called "Shitcom" a 10 out of 10? Something just one minute long can't even have a story, right? Well, you're wrong. Terribly wrong. In just one minute, the genius who is Takena, presents to us, what is the most touching and emotional romantic-drama anime that has ever graced the screen of PC's/TV's. If you intend to ... watch this anime, be prepared to dethrone your favourite anime to second favourite. Have MANY tissues by your side (many manly tears were shed that day) and be prepared to live your remaining life in awe. Clannad being the best drama? My ass is it! Shitcom is the best. No debate.

Story - 10/10
As I've previously explained, the story in Shitcom is simply unfathomable. Don't question the judgement of life itself. Shitcom will be 10/10. No exceptions. [Reviewers note - best romance in the world. Definitely a better love story than Twilight (so axiomatic)]

Art - 10/10
Very rarely will any company ever be able to produce such an aesthetically pleasing masterpiece. Yet, this ethereal eloquence is presented to us by just ONE man. If you're eyes aren't orgasming after watching this, then I'd suggest a serious contemplation on your own life.

Sound - 10/10
What score other than 10/10 COULD I give Shitcom? It was a beauty to my ears - Luigi Boccherini's Minuet from String Quintet in E major, Op.11 No.5 (G.275) is nothing short of a masterpiece. Perfectly synchronised with the animation, there were no flaws in sound. Some of you may be thinking - How can something be flawless? Nothing is flawless in this world! ; well, you may think that, UNTIL you have watched Shitcom.

Character - 10/10
It is difficult to speak of characters in Shitcom without spoiling the magnificent story. Though all you need to know, is the protagonists, namely the male & female as in any romance anime, are certainly the most depthful characters out there. Don't watch Kemono no Souja Erin for character development. Watch Shitcom for character development.

Enjoyment - 10/10
Upon completion of this sacred, omnipotent anime, one cannot help, but to instantly bestow the score of 10/10. If there is someone out there, who HASN'T rewarded Shitcom the legendary 10, then they are most likely living life in fear and regret, fearing the wrath of Shitcom.

Don't be a fool. Watch Shitcom. It's one minute long. You have nothing to lose. You got time to be reading this review? You got time to watch Shitcom.

Shitcom is like the Neon Genesis Evangelion of the deepest, darkest, dankest part of Hell's dump, the place where things like:
Mars of Destruction
Skelter Heaven
Everything else Idea Factory ever made
Panzer Dragoon
That horrible Mario anime
One Punch Man
God Eater
Violence Jack
Shitgatsu
...
and many, many more came from.

Only Shitcom is made from the congealed drippings of those other anime, mashed into a malleable, turd looking form and then made into a stop motion video that MAL somehow considers anime. While I contend that "anime" refers to hand drawn or three dimensional computer generated productions, apparently poop(clay)-mation counts too.

Now, I mentioned that Shitcom is the NGE of Hell's dump's shit. This is not an unsubstantiated claim. In fact, Shitcom may be one of the deepest, thickest turds ever uploaded to the collective toilet of the internet. Why?

I make two cases:

1. It has actual metaphorical meaning.

Shitcom: two clay turds go out on a date. The shit-man pulls out a ring to propose to the feces-woman, but then she explosively vomits her scat all over herself, him, and everything else. The man responds in kind by mouth-shitting himself, her, and everything else. It ends with a kiss. Is it all a crappy poop joke like the one I just told?

Well, not in this shitty reviewer's mind!

Shitcom is an allegory for the crap that we all have inside of us. Some people feel like shit, some people are full of shit, and some people talk shit. But this couple is able to look past all that shit that comes bubbling out of each other and love the shit out of each other- literally. It's about how humanity has this dark, smelly, brown, sticky nastiness inside, and when it comes out, it's all in how we deal with it- either a mutual respect and looking past the shitty situation we find ourselves in, or just losing our shit and getting it everywhere, and on everyone.


2. It's literally about two people shitting themselves, and getting it everywhere.

Filth.


So, like NGE, Shitcom has viewers split on whether it's a deep, satisfying metaphor in a 2 minute claymated span, or whether it's just a pretentious piece of crap.

You be the judge, but I'm erring on the side of shit.

Wow. Just wow. I mean, one could take this video as a postmodern view of the relationship between man and woman. Or, you can just watch the video and declare it as nothing but pure and utter, wait for it, shit. Just shit. There is literally no other word to describe this video.

You know, I honestly don't know why I wrote this review at all. I guess I'm just bored. I will give out a warning though. You probably shouldn't watch this while eating or if you're feeling sick.

Actually, better yet, don't watch this at all. Trust me, I'm doing you a favor...
