The ecchi genre always continues in current anime. No matter what year or decade, we will always see some work gain fame for continuing the legacy that To Love-Ru and Highschool DxD left, however controversial and contradictory that statement may be. This year was no different. We had Ishuzoku Reviewers, Dokyuu Hentai HxEros and Peter Grill, all with a giant amount of ecchi content. But, what's wrong with Dogeza? Why would anyone speak so badly of this anime, while defending these others? Well, I'll explain.
First, we need to demystify the idea that all ecchi is bad. There are incredible works that know how to treat the subject as an important narrative element and others that simply put this type of scene for no reason. Dogeza goes beyond the two options and creates a third one: he uses ecchi as a narrative element, but he has no other reason than to show young people naked on the screen. The anime adapts a compilation of comic strips of the same name and you don't even have to read the subtitles or understand another language to follow the work without problems. I, for example, am Brazilian and read Dogeza quickly, but when I realized that the text didn't matter, I just turned the page and always had the same structure: a girl ashamed to show her body, a highly perverted, immoral and disgusting and a more uncomfortable environment than another.
In addition to being a bad ecchi, the anime is repetitive. As much as some try to contradict me saying that the show is short and you can consider some things, I can't see any factor that makes it positive. It is not as if the creators did not know. They don't even try to hide the shit that it is.
In my sincere opinion, whoever thinks this is cool and likes this type of content, needs to get their ideas back, because this is ridiculous. It is nothing more than a material for self-pleasure. It is as if the anime wanted to make the audience see themselves in the protagonist's view, which disgusts me. There are already animes that try to use the main element in first person (example: One Room), but I never saw them use it in a way that was horrible to follow.
I will not blame anyone, as this type of content is considered common today. It is normal to see a type of show that passes between big episodes, as if it were a commercial. Dogeza was made to occupy a small portion of the day on your TV station. In this respect, I understand the reason for producing something like this. It is the profit it generates. Nothing more than that. Nobody will say that the anime had any other intention. Any anime that has breasts and asses as the predominant elements becomes profitable even today. The same legacy that I mentioned earlier has become a problem today, where you can still see this incredibly sick attempt to have money with products of sexual content, be it an anime, manga, figure, etc.
Finally, Dogeza should not exist. It doesn’t show any content and features one of the most display and free ecchis I’ve ever seen. At least Gibiate tried to be something, Dogeza was complete rubbish from the start. Just like the anime had 12 Dogezas, I ask you in dogeza too. Definitely don't watch this!
