A few of the jokes might feel outdated or come across as sexist and homophobic but it all follows from the show’s anarchic satire of the middle class mentality. Body humor is the great leveler in the Shin-chan universe and is usually the reason why Shin-chan himself comes out on top. Everything is caricatured no one is allowed to be cool in Shin-chan without also having a name that sounds like “Poop” or being excessively ticklish. You might not know it going in but Shin-chan runs the gamut of toilet and sex jokes. Part of this honesty is the show’s extreme lowbrow comedy. It’s this honesty in Shin-chan’s portrayal of the Japanese middle class that made it such a hit. In contrast to the parents of American family cartoons like The Simpsons or Family Guy, they’re more overworked and stressed out than lazy, which makes it easier to emphasize with them for me. They’re always having to rescue their reckless children from strange and implausible circumstances despite being completely out of their depth. They have great chemistry too, even if they’re easily distracted by attractive members of the opposite sex. As is the case in most of these family shows the parents can be as selfish and juvenile as the kids, but they always rise to the occasion without it feeling inauthentic. While Shin-chan’s unserious personality generates much of the show’s comedy, I find the best characters to be Hiroshi and Misae. With him are his infant sister Himawari, his nervous dog Shiro, his parents Hiroshi and Misae, and a large expanded cast set against the backdrop of the Saitama Prefecture. Even when he and his family are in dangerous life-or-death scenarios he’ll go out of his way to make dumb jokes. The titular Shin-chan is an elementary school boy with a constant poker face and unwillingness to take anything seriously. The appeal of these kinds of shows comes from the characters and the main family members here are all very endearing. Shin-chan is a family cartoon in the style of The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, King of the Hill, and others: it stars a middle class family’s daily life and their occasional run-ins with extraordinary, supernatural phenomenon.
