Ore ga Ojousama Gakkou ni "Shomin Sample" Toshite Gets♥Sareta Ken

Kimito Kagurazaka is a commoner with a fetish for men's muscles—or at least that's the lie he must keep telling if he wants to keep himself out of trouble at the elite all-girls school, Seikain Academy. Kidnapped by the school under the assumption that he prefers men, Kimito is made to be their "commoner sample," exposing the girls to both commoner and man so that the transition to the world after school is not jarring. Threatened with castration should his sexual preferences not match the school's assumptions, Kimito keeps up the facade to protect his manhood.

But there are eccentric individuals around every corner who begin to make Kimito's life even more difficult. Among them are Aika Tenkuubashi, a social outcast who blurts out whatever comes to mind; Hakua Shiodome, a young genius; Karen Jinryou, the daughter of samurai who is obsessed with defeating Kimito; and Reiko Arisugawa, the perfect student who has delusions of marrying Kimito. Along with the commoner himself, these four girls make up the Commoner Club, which attempts to teach the girls more about life outside the school, while Kimito gradually learns about the odd girls surrounding him.

Shomin Sample is a short anime with only one season—12 episodes, totaling four hours—which is great for those who want to spend some time watching something mildly funny with a touch of romance, and why not, a bit of ecchi.

Its story revolves around Kagurazaka Kimito, a high school student who is forced to study at an all-girls school. As if that weren't bad enough, he's also forced to pretend to like men's muscles to avoid having his genitals removed. At this school, he meets Arisugawa Reiko—a popular girl, class president, who has a crush on the protagonist—Jinryou Karen—a violent swordswoman, who has a crush on ... the protagonist—Shiodome Hakua—a loli (who for some reason takes her clothes off... and she's 14?!?!), who has a crush on the protagonist—and Tenkuubashi Aika—a dim-witted girl, comic relief... and who also has a crush on the protagonist—(it's a "harem" anime theme, what did you expect?). If that's not enough to make you watch this anime, I don't know what is.

It's definitely not the funniest thing you'll ever see; there are better romances, and is it worth seeing a loli get naked? (If your answer is yes, go watch a hentai, weirdo.)
So why waste four hours of your life watching this anime when you could play lol? Simple, because lol is bad and this anime is good.

As I said before, it's not the funniest thing you'll ever see, but it's funny enough to make you chuckle every now and then. It doesn't have the best romantic development in anime (actually, it doesn't), but it has enough romance to make you root for a heroine, and it has ecchi... that's enough to make you watch it.

It won't be the best thing you'll ever watch, but you won't regret spending your time on it. So if you want a short rom-com to watch when you have nothing to do, why not watch this one?

[PT-BR]

Shomin Sample é um anime curto de apenas uma temporada — contendo 12 episódios, sendo 4 horas ao total — no qual é ótimo para quem quer passar um tempo vendo algo levemente engraçado com um toque de romance, e porque não, um pouco de ecchi.

Sua história gira em torno de Kagurazaka Kimito, aluno do colegial que forçadamente é obrigado a estudar numa escola de damas, escola essa que contém apenas garotas, e como se já não estivesse ruim o suficiente, ele ainda é obrigado a fingir que gosta de músculos de homens para não ter sua genitália removida. Nessa escola ele conhece Arisugawa Reiko — garota popular, representante de classe que tem uma queda pelo protagonista —, Jinryou Karen — garota espadachim violenta, que tem uma queda pelo protagonista — Shiodome Hakua — loli (que por algum motivo tira a roupa... e tem 14 anos?!?!), que tem uma queda pelo protagonista — e Tenkuubashi Aika — garota tapada, alivio cômico... e que também é apaixonada pelo protagonista — (está no tema do anime "Harém", você esperava oque?). Se isso já não é o suficiente para você assistir esse anime, eu não sei o que é.

Definitivamente não é a coisa mais engraçada que você verá, existem romances melhores, e será que vale a pena ver uma loli ficar nua? (se a sua resposta foi sim, vai ver um hentai, esquisitão)
Então porque perder 4 horas da sua vida vendo esse anime se você poderia jogar lol? Simples, porque lol é ruim e esse anime é bom.

Como disse anteriormente, não é a coisa mais engraçada que você verá, mas é engraçado o suficiente pra te fazer dar uma risada de vez em quando, não tem o melhor desenvolvimento romântico dos animes (na real nem tem), mas tem romance o suficiente para você torcer por uma heroína, e tem ecchi... já é o suficiente para você assisti-lo.

Não vai ser a melhor coisa que você vai assistir, mas você não vai se arrepender de ter gastado seu tempo nele. Então se você quer um romcom curto para você ver quando não tiver nada para fazer, por que não assistir esse?

Mixed Feelings

I watched Shomin Sample, and I have to say—this whole anime is ridiculous. It’s basically the same recycled plot you’ll find in every other male harem anime: a “normal” guy gets thrown into an absurd situation surrounded by girls, each representing a specific trope, and nothing of value really happens.

The show had the potential to be an interesting social experiment—a commoner boy introduced to a school of wealthy, ultra-sheltered girls to help them understand the outside world. But instead of any meaningful exploration, we get a series of dumb, repetitive gags and eye-roll-worthy misunderstandings. And I can’t believe I’m even saying this, but the fanservice ... is boring. Yes, the girls are “sheltered,” but that doesn’t mean they have to be portrayed as completely brainless. I get that it’s supposed to be funny, but it just ends up feeling bland and lazy.

The characters are shallow cutouts of every overused anime archetype: the tsundere, the sickly loli, the deadpan maid, etc. Kimito, the protagonist, is another bland “nice guy” harem lead, except his defining gimmick is pretending to have a muscle fetish so the school doesn’t kick him out. It’s as dumb as it sounds—and not in a fun way.

The only thing I genuinely enjoyed was the OP and ending outro, mostly because they’re so chaotic it literally looks like someone was on crack when they made them. They’re at least visually interesting, even if they don’t match the flat, uninspired tone of the actual episodes.

Animation is fine, music is forgettable, and the writing is painfully safe. The show doesn’t take any risks, doesn’t develop its characters, and ultimately offers nothing that hasn’t already been done (and done better) in other series.

If you're hoping for clever satire, emotional depth, or even just genuinely funny comedy—look elsewhere. Shomin Sample is a bland, trope-ridden, and ultimately forgettable mess.

I'd say mostly watch this when you're bored and you're trying to kill time.

Not Recommended

Apart from Reiko, other female characters remain dull. The absurd comedy seems good at first, but it can't make you laugh anymore because it repeats too much. On top of that, some chapters feel like they are just empty to fill them in, episode 10 can be cited as an example of this. The music was so ordinary that I couldn't hold a place in my mind with any other music.
We don't get to know the main characters deeply. Ecchi and Harem feel like they were put there just to be featured. Because it doesn't affect the course of the scenario much. In fact, after ... a while, it made me think that it would be okay if it wasn't. There are almost no romantic-comedy parts. In short, it is an anime that tries to be many things but does not focus on anything deeply.
I give it 3 out of 10.
