Watamote Collection

One of the most entertaining, funny, heartwarming and ironically depressing series I've ever read, and the anime adaptation doesn't disappoint. Sometimes it's exactly what I need to cheer me up, sometimes it hits so close to home I can't help but laugh nervously anyway. I really hope it gets a second season; I can't stand to see it end at only 12 episodes. Also, make sure you buy your DVDs like this from MVM; I paid for standard delivery and expected it to take over a week, but it was here less than a day later! Excellent service and in good condition!

if you have warped sense of humour then this is for you it had me in stitches its just so funny its untrue! get it, watch it and enjoy it. if it dos'nt make you laugh there's something wrong with you.

Watamote is a series that many will find off-putting. The "cringe comedy" and often cynical nature of the series is something that can seem downright repulsive to some people. But for me, I thought this series was great. As someone who has dealt with a lot of the issues the protagonist faces throughout the series, I can relate to Watamote in a way that I can with very few other pieces of media out there. Obviously it's very exaggerated and I won't act like it's a perfect reflection of my life or anything, but it does feel quite accurate to life for many people who struggle with social anxiety and making friends. Even the cynical and nearly hopeless tone that the series can have at points feels earned simply because I felt that it was believable and reflects what many people who struggle with these issues can feel like. Not to mention, it makes the more sincere moments in the series have all the more impact. Overall I would recommend this only if you think you can get through some intentionally VERY cringe inducing scenes. My only gripe with the Blu Ray release is that it has virtually no special features, which can make it hard to recommend for anyone that's already seen the series prior.

I love watching this anime. Lots of very funny moments! xD

While I'm glad I can actually have Watamote on blu-ray, this collection isn't perfect. The subtitles could have been better. There are no translations for the opening and many of the closing titles. It's a shame too, that the subs couldn't have been integrated into the scenes better, as they were on some streaming versions, but plain old white text will have to do. My other main issue, and it's quite a big one, is that the OVA (episode 13) is missing from this collection. As the OVA came out in October, I don't think it's too unreasonable to say it should've been included.

This DVD is verry funny, not the normal anime plot angle and well worth watching.

If you're no good with everyday social interactions then you'll get this anime. If not then you may think it's just cruel. The only down side for me was the lack of any conclusive ending, but then it hard to see how it could be any other way without losing realism.

Bra komedi. Kan vara lite mörk (mörk humor?).

外国商品なのに、日本語音声にしても、余計な外国語字幕がないんで、よい物だと思います。

Won't work on my Xbox one didn't know about the region thing :( but still good show

PAL再生でもリージョンコードが2なのか問題なく見れました。 外付けDVD＋再生はVLPメディアプレイヤー(フリーソフト)で見れたので問題ないかと思います。 音声言語が日本語がデフォルトなのですが、毎回字幕の初期設定が英語にてONになっているので 再生前に英語字幕が要らない方はOFFにすれば問題なく見れます。
