    Chocolate Underground



    "Adapted from the children's novel Bootleg by the British author Alex Shearer, story centers on two 13-year-old boys who live in a country that has banned chocolate and mandated fruits and vegetables for daily consumption. The boys discover a stash of cocoa and sugar and decide to run a bootleg chocolate factory, in complete defiance of the government run by the oppressive Good for You Party. Their misadventures eventually sparks a revolution in the country." -mangaupdates

    Episode 1 h264 - DATS
    Episode 1 xvid - DATS

    AniDB, ANN, Official

    - - - - - -

    The episodes are only five mins long, and apparently this is a web broadcast series. The idea sounds somewhat similar to Toshokan Sensou, but of course this is far more terrible. I mean, who needs books if you can't have chocolate?

    The first episode pretty much established how ruthless the regime is and showed the main cast, or most of it, but due to the very limited length, little else. Casualties so far consist of one chocolate bar.

    There's no winning against chocolate:

    Episode 2 h264 - DATS
    Episode 2 xvid - DATS


    Edit: This is a nice enough looking series, especially for those who like chocolate (I do), but the eps could really be longer. Now they end as soon as they start.

    Edit: I can't help but believe that this might happen one day. *goes off to eat as much chocolate as humanly possible*

    In my current state, chocolate is a mandatory food for me. It has become a basic need for my body.
    I tried replacing it with vitamins and nutrients thought to be efficient in chocolate to no avail.
    Just a little bit of chocolate every evening and my body works a little better, that little is very important to me currently. The difference is obvious and measurable.
    So... do not even think of voting for a party that would wipe chocolate from the universe!

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Great series, even more over-the-top than Toshokan Sensou.

    Let's hope waits this long aren't a new trend:

    Episode 5 h264 - DATS
    Episode 5 xvid - DATS

    According to the DATS there's some corruption in the video. Apparently they were unable to capture the stream or find a raw without disruptions.

    This is a cute.. odd show. Though I almost wish the episodes were longer so you get more. 5 minutes makes it seem like one of those time fillers when they pop on tv.

    And there are 13 episodes, I think? Will the conflict be solved by then?

    AniDB does say 13 episodes, and with this series I'm inclined to believe it. I guess the resolution to the tyranny will be of somewhat symbolic manner even if they take things far in the story concretely. 13x5 minutes only makes about three normal episodes, after all. Can't have wars fought in that amount of time.

    Indeed. I give them credit for such a good setup, though the preview shows they'll still get busted.

    I swear the best thing that can happen is to forcefully give the chief chocolate, get him addicted, then arrest him for possessing it. Damn Sadist!

    He looks like such a big mofo that he might cut open his own stomach to scoop out the chocolate, and then die a happy martyr.
