Synopsis

Battle Programmer Shirase, also known as BPS, is a free programmer with super hacking abilities who doesn't work for money. What he does work for is certainly something that only people like him would appreciate. But, his demeanor certainly doesn't suit the jobs he is hired for. With the evil King of America causing trouble via the internet, Shirase is nothing but busy as each new adventure brings even more interesting people into the picture.

The program has some jokes about Shirase and Amano accidentally getting into sexual situations, which is a joke that continues all through the show. The story has parts, but the same bad guy makes most of the trouble. In every round, ...

Battle Programmer Shirase is an anime about a whiny, incestuous, pedophile loser who's good at coding but bad at everything else. It's hard to say if he's supposed to be the most vicious caricature of an otaku your average suit could come up with, or if he's the end product of some bizarre, unflattering power fantasy. beginning with the story, it should, theoretically, be a fun show- a programmer who's so good at countering hackers that he's regularly recruited by government agencies and secret organizations. However, the execution just falls flat on its face. Shirase is fundamentally unlikable, and the ...
