Funimation Streams Shimoneta Dub Teaser


Get ready to attack the boundaries of good taste, and tear down the walls of decency!

Earlier today, Funimation started streaming a new dub teaser for Shimoneta: A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Doesn’t Exist. The 90-second teaser offers a brief overview, and a brief sampling of the show’s lewd sense of humor.

This should go without saying, but This is not safe for work! Viewer discretion is advised!

Shimoneta will hit stores on Blu-ray and DVD on November 29 in both standard and limited editions. The limited edition will carry a suggested price of $84.98, while the standard release will cost $64.98.

Shimoneta Key Visual 002 - 20150610Shimoneta is based on Hirotaka Akagi’s light novel series of the same name. The show was helmed by Youhei Suzuki (The Hentai Prince and the Stony Cat) at J.C. Staff, with Masahiro Fujii (The Familiar of Zero, Hayate the Combat Butler!!) providing character designs. Masahiro Yokotani (The Devil Is A Part-Timer!, Free! – Iwatobi Swim Club) was in charge of series composition.

The show’s English dub will be directed by Jerry Jewell. The cast includes:

  • Ayame: Jamie Marchi
  • Tanukichi: Josh Grelle
  • Goriki: David Wald
  • Anna: Monica Rial
  • Kosuri: Lara Woodhull
  • Hyoka: Mikaela Krantz
  • White Peak: Anthony Bowling
  • Narrator/Base Black: Christopher Sabat

Funimation streamed Shimoneta as the series aired in Japan. They describe the show as:

In a world where dirty jokes don’t exist, where the mere utterance of a ***** word will thrust you into jail, a hero must rise up as a symbol for all things lewd and rude. The mysterious Blue Snow, proudly wearing panties on her face and armed with naughty images and a foul mouth, will bring the art of dirty jokes back! With her erotic terrorist group, SOX, she will press against the stiff authority of the oppressive Decency Squad and step on their hard and overbearing rules. Tanukichi Okuma is the son of an imprisoned ero-terrorist. Rather than following in his father’s footsteps, he plans to stay on the track of morality and wholesomeness. Just like his dream girl, Anna Nishikinomiya, he attends Japan’s most moral school. But after an encounter with Blue Snow, his virtuous plans are ****** and he finds himself entangled with SOX. Will the pursuit of smut tarnish what hope he has with the pure Anna, or will he *** around, stimulated by the panty wearing deviant and her filthy mouth?
