So, You Wanna Watch Shikimori? Good Choice!
Let's be real. You've heard about Shikimori Is Not Just a Cutie. Maybe you saw some cute GIFs. Maybe your friend won't stop talking about it.
The burning question is: where can you actually *watch* this anime without resorting to... less-than-legal means?
The Usual Suspects: Streaming Services
First, the obvious: Crunchyroll. They practically own anime streaming these days. And guess what? Shikimori graced their digital shores back in its heyday.
Check Crunchyroll's website or app. Make sure it's available in your region! Region locking is the bane of every anime fan's existence. Isn't it?
Hulu is another possibility. Sometimes they sneakily grab anime licenses. Worth a quick search if you already subscribe.
The Not-So-Obvious Suspects (Maybe?)
Amazon Prime Video? Possibly. Stranger things have happened. I once found a documentary about competitive cheese carving there. True story.
Netflix? This one is a long shot. But hey, hope springs eternal! Check their anime section just in case.
Don't forget HIDIVE! They're the dark horse of anime streaming. They might have it, they might not. It's a gamble.
The Unpopular Opinion Section (Brace Yourselves!)
Okay, unpopular opinion time. Are we *sure* Shikimori is all that great? I mean, it's cute. Undeniably cute.
But did it, like, change your life? Did it make you question the very fabric of reality? I'm not so sure.
Maybe... just maybe... there are other, equally enjoyable anime out there you could watch if you can't find Shikimori right away. Just a thought!
Physical Media: A Retro Option
Remember DVDs and Blu-rays? No? Okay, I'm old. But some companies still release anime on physical media.
Check online retailers like Amazon or Rightstufanime. You might be able to snag a Blu-ray copy. It's a collector's item! Plus, no buffering!
Warning: This option can be pricey. Prepare your wallet.
The "Ask a Friend" Approach
Do you have that one friend who owns every anime ever made? Yeah, that friend. Hit them up!
They might have a copy. Or know where to find one. Just be prepared for them to lecture you on the merits of sub versus dub.
The Ultimate Strategy: Google Is Your Friend
Seriously. Just Google it. "Where to watch Shikimori Is Not Just a Cutie." You'd be surprised what you find.
But be careful! Not all websites are created equal. Steer clear of anything that looks shady. You don't want to download a virus.
Final Thoughts (and More Unpopular Opinions)
Finding anime can be a pain. Especially older ones that have cycled off streaming services.
But don't give up hope! And remember: there's a whole world of anime out there. Don't get too hung up on one show.
Unless it's Neon Genesis Evangelion. Then you're allowed to be obsessed. That's just good taste.
Happy watching! And may your streaming be ever in your favor. Good luck on your Shikimori quest!
