tl;dr: A manga with good albeit perverted humor and an amusing albeit insane cast that it attempts to give character and relationship development to but fails because of how rushed it is.

This manga is one about a world where all perverted entertainment, humor, and even information is heavily censored. Under such circumstances, a group of high school students known as SOX fight back. As such, this manga itself has a lot of perverted content, though it’s in the form of a lot of humor and innuendo and not actual nudity or anything like that. And this humor is pretty solid all the way through if ... you like that type of humor, especially the final arc that showed you can have a lot of variety even while sticking to just dirty jokes. The overarching story is about fighting censorship, and it does a decent job at developing points centered around that as well, though in a pretty heavy handed manner that will likely not really appeal to anyone that doesn’t already agree to the point being made. The cast overall is also really amusing with the characters being likable just because of how hilarious and crazy they are. There is definitely some character and relationship development as well, though it’s heavily lacking.

To expand on that point, I would first like to compare this manga to the anime. This manga adapts the first 11 episodes of the anime in its first two volumes, with the last episode of the anime not being adapted at all. These first two volumes is where all the characters, their circumstances, and their initial relationships are introduced and begin to get fleshed out. The pacing on the anime in of plot was fine, so 11 episodes worth of content in two volumes is clearly too much, and as a result the manga felt incredibly rushed. Still, in of characters it was mostly basic introduction stuff that’s easy enough to follow along even if it is rushed, so I didn’t think the pacing itself was too much of an issue, though that could just be due to already having watched the anime. The third and fourth volume adapt a single arc from beyond the anime. There are characters introduced during this arc including one that’ll likely be pretty important in the future, but it also felt like there was a much larger emphasis being given to character development and relationship development in the character’s already introduced which was somewhat lacking before this. The problem is that it was still really rushed, just as rushed as the first two volumes, and it didn’t feel like any of this development got fleshed out properly.

Because of that, the ending to the manga didn’t really get to do much beyond simply ending the arc. Anime and manga adaptations of light novels generally don’t finish the plot, but they usually do try to end in such a way that at least in of tone, atmosphere, and framing they give a sense of completeness, which the anime did with what I believe is anime original content in the last episode. This manga didn’t manage to do that at all and thus the ending felt pretty lackluster. I also thought that in of art the manga wasn’t that great, with the style not fitting that well with the visual humor and quality also not being that great.

Shimoneta (shorter version or ShimoSeka) is a manga adaptation of the light novel with the same name written by Akagi Hirotaka, in English it's translated as "A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Does Not Exist", published between 2014-2016. It has 23 chapters collected in 4 volumes, Yuzuki N' being the artist.

It's about a revolution, Japan has become the purest society ever on Earth, no one is talking about sex, no one masturbates, no one is comparing boobs, boys don't flip girls' skirts and girls don't try to impress the boys with skimpy outfits and no one is telling dirty jokes. Can you ... imagine such a world? Could you survive in that world? On top of that, all children have some SF chokers that control their actions, any perverted thing is prohibited and strictly controlled. Enter these high school boys and girls (an organisation named SOX) who fight against the system in the name of perversions and dirty jokes, will they save Japan?
Fortunately, this manga is a comedy, take the synopsis literally and have fun with our main characters committing obscene acts of terrorism in order to defeat the system and liberate Japan from this oppression of thought. It's one of those ideas that sounds stupid on paper but when executed, it becomes a fun read and really entertaining.

To be fair, this manga was like your usual ad for the light novel, the first two volumes are very fast paced, even compared with the anime (which came a year later), the first 12 chapters correspond with the anime's first 11 episodes and the remaining two volumes contain a new story arc, also filled with perversions and craziness. The only disappointment I have with this manga is that it doesn't have a clear and concise ending, which is normal, there was no interest in adapting the whole LN material, this was just a segment from the overall story and we should be thankful for that, even without an ending, this is truly entertaining to read for fans of ecchi & comedy. My other complain is that it's not ecchi enough.

It's a manga that doesn't take itself seriously, it's supposed to make you laugh in this weird SF scenario and also arouse you a bit with some sexy scenes. The setting is a high school, all the characters are teens with some exceptions.

The main attraction is clearly the main girl Kajou Ayame, she is the biggest pervert you could think of, talks dirty, thinks about sex all the time, has photos of naked chicks in her pockets, she is a true "woman of culture" and a revolutionary, what's her motivations? because it's fun, dirty jokes are fun, insert some fake tragic past about her father who was also a pervert terrorist to make it cheesier and we're good. She wears a pair of panties on her face occasionally.
The more cliches here the better, we also have a normal high school boy who doesn't wanna be a pervert but becomes a member of SOX, a crazy yandere who's a pervert but doesn't have a clue about sex, a cute annoying loli girl and another perverted loli, a childhood friend who likes the main dude, also an ugly guy who wears a women's bra.

The characters really make the story here, I liked all of them, they are weird and crazy and anything can happen when they are around. And because we can't be focused on plots to destroy the government all the time, we get sexy situations. Girls falling on top of the main character, accidental kisses (and I am not talking about the girl's upper lips), anyways, let your imagination flow. Unfortunately, it's not To Love Ru or Sora no Otoshimono level of ecchi but something is there and it's a feast for the eyes. Overall it's wacky and disgusting in some parts (love nectar cookies are the best cookies a girl could bake, read it to find out about this wonderful recipe), but that's the appeal, it's for people who like this kind of comedy, want a good laugh and look at girl's bodies.

The art style is good, the girls are beautiful, nice backgrounds (but not detailed enough, I say it's like your mediocre high school manga-like) and the sexy scenes look appealing and delicious but don't expect nipples, it's a hidden detail, the anime is more ecchi than the manga, I feel it works anyway, it's ok I guess, like I said above, it doesn't compare with well established ecchi manga, it's more comedy and the ecchi is the cherry on the top, and of course it's small compared to the cake, we also get many bath scenes. The characters look 95% the same as in the anime, so no major differences here.

I liked it because it's my kind of comedy, it's rough and dirty and doesn't care about "feelings", if a girl has a big rack, Ayame will say how hot she looks and that her rack would be good for paizuri. The main guy is kinda boring, he doesn't like dirty jokes as much as others but he begins to change throughout the manga.
If you like dirty jokes and obscene characters, give this manga a try. I recommend it to Shimoneta anime viewers too, the last two volumes are comprised of LN material which wasn't adapted in the anime and the chapters are fun, we meet some new characters and we get lots of obscene stuff typical for this series.
