Highschool of the Dead “Greatest Masterpiece”

i love the manga and the anime is very awesome, but we still have to wait if that was a 1rst ep thing only(isnt there a post about the 3 episode curse or something??)

Two words: Dat Ass.

I'm thinking I'll like this series. Though too much tits and not any shota!

I was excited for this show reading about it... now that I see it... kinda looks like every other fanservice show, except everyone has cookie cutter uberboobs.

Love the idea, like zombies, even like seeing girls wearing their opponents' blood, but it looks like so much fanservice it makes Aika look somber and reserved. Just another show you couldn't even mention to someone who isn't a hardcore otaku. :/

the whole series would of been better, if it was less fuckin emo...

Oddly enough, the overabundance of focus on the oppai and pantsu kind of turns me off. As a zombie aficionado, I want more focus on the carnage and the horror, not on the OMG BOUNCING BOOS IN YOUR FACE! This is the first major zombie anime/manga I have seen or heard of, and it disappointments me that this is what comes out of the gates first. A zombie survival tale in a high school opens the gats for some interesting possibilities, with the juxtaposition of the developing personalities and social identities of the young mind at such a traumatic time; and I'm sure that sexuality would play a role in a situation like this with characters of this age, but not in such a major way.

I would like to add that I am in no way gay, and I do like my ecchi, but not when it gets in the way of what I also like, which is mainly zombies.

if the zombie apocalypse will come true.... it will rain pantsus in the whole world... (although rotten and .......)

Great ZOMVIES AND FANSERVICES!

Actually, i find the anime alright, will be looking forward to the other episodes.

I'm watching this show for K-kyodan. That is all.

WTF! WIN!

Hope there'll be a game.

Unimpressed. By the first episode it just looks like a standard zombie story. I think it's getting so much attention just because it's an anime. If this live action it wouldn't get as much attention. Just because it's new to anime, that doesn't make it new. I'm watching in the hopes that there will some major plot twists.

BTW stupid bitch in the show is annoying.

So this is like Ikki Tousen but with zombies.

Masterpiece indeed :) Moeness hell yeah ;)

This anime is interesting, but Digimon Xros Wars will be the best new anime for this season.

Cantido said:
This manga was in publication before the concept of the game was even conceived. Not a good comparison regardless.

That's not entirely true, Do not think valve, think the company, they purchased the game from. "Turtle Rock Studios" L4D was conceived in Nov. 2006 - HS of the dead Sept. 2006 not too far off from each other.

On November 20 2006, Turtle Rock Studios announced Left 4 Dead, a co-operative multiplayer action game.

FCK YEAH!, Just saw it, pure gore, and awesomeness. Hope they don't start ripping off boomers and smokers.

LOL BGM RIP-OFF FROM 28 WEEKS LATER ROFL

And some people wonder how people can say that anime as a whole is going downhill.

so this is why the fucking series is on hiatus?

When one of the top Doujin Manga writers around makes a serious manga, which gets adapted into an anime, only 1 thing can happen:
Greatness.

hahahahaha just what an otaku needs!

I loved the manga, now I'm gonna love the anime. Saeko-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannn ^o^

Pantsu + Zombies = Winning formula for anything.

waiting for the next episode that shit was amazing. i always though they will make a resident evil anime adaptation, that will be great to watch.

And now, they just need to put Typing of the Dead cameo's in this...

Screw peas. It rocks hard and on top of it main hero voice is by Junichi Suwabe. The moment I heard that voice I knew I'm so going to watch it.

Must watch for me.

I was never so aroused and dearoused at the same time

Ah yes my favorite is pic 9
Lower body half was sexy
Upper body half was not

Hey! Zombies and panty shots! Wake me when something good comes out this season.

I started reading the manga and prayed that it would become an anime. YES!!!

The series were actually quite good before ep 6 came out.

Here's how you make a great anime (for the japanese audience):

- Add a loli (first and obligatory)
- Add a tsundere
- Add a big breasted nymphmaniac bitch OR moe twat
- Now, put some blood to call some more audience
- Now, a plot that you could enlarge for, at least, 3 seasons, 5 movies and intense merchandising (that includes, fake vaginas)
- Get some catchy and cheesy jpop song for your OP
- If your plot was kinda good, ruin it with INTENSE ecchi and fan service

And that's all you need! Congratulations!

How the series fell, having started out with this, and then by the second episode the censoring had even spread to the premium pay services. Blueray's exorbitant prices await, thanks for the fuckover Japanese censoring retards.

I feel so disgraced seeing this series only gaining popularity when the anime was released. The manga itself was a masterpiece! It was practically saying the manga wasn't interesting at all!

thank god for the manga

I have/am reading this manga and its pretty ok. The girl with the katana will be nice ;p

After watching this I find it funny how in animes the cast is usually teenagers or kids.

But in live-action movies the cast usually have young adults to grown ups. I think I now know what audience this anime is targeting to now.

I hope they don't do too much unneeded fanservice, the premise is already interesting for me.

i'd say it's like shikabane hime but whit the other type of magic skirt

Just watched the first episode completely on Youtube, this is so good stuff, really like the colors, drawing and animation.

I fucking hated they swapped Morita from the beginning though. But well, I expected it to have some differences from the manga.

awesome series...

BEST. COMBO. EVER.

These big breasts are ugly.
These pantsu are annoying.
The girl is so stupid and hysterical that I already want to kill her.

For now I see only two good sides - zombies and BLOOOOOOOOD.
BTW, is Kouta Hirano an allusion to author of "Hellsing" or what?

I thought the animation quality was good, and zombies are cool, but I was utterly let down. When the summer anime were announced this one looked promising, but upon downloading it I found it to be fairly rubbish...It's pure fanservice. Not even good fanservice. Won't be watching any further.

its like 40% "hates it because its FAKE AND GAY." and 59% "loves it because of ZOMGBIES AND BITCHES." Frankly, I'm with the 1% who says "STFU!" Why? because its just 1 episode! You really can't say anything until the show finishes, then you can battle it out...but who am I to judge? I'm just a lowly anon...

also, (compared to games) its not like L4D! Its more like deadrising than anything!

The only thing that really annoys me now is that almost every anime is like 12 episodes now. Like, seriously, wtf?

Is there no one daring enough to make an epic 26 episode adventure anymore?

Hey, at least it isn't more moe.

AFTER SO MANY MONTHS WITHOUT ITS MANGA THIS IS IT YES BABY YES: MY LIFE HAS MEANING AFTER ALL FMA RELATED CRAP ENDED

Very Good Anime!! Lol just watched the ep and it was damn good , as expected from madhouse!Well let's hope it will keep its quality later on aswell

I find it pretty shit, both manga and anime, dropped after ep 1.

Is it just me or was that one of the 28 days later songs towards the end of the episode?

I don't see how this is the best of the season, both anime and manga are pretty shit to begin with.

rocket oppai + twin tails = win

in your face alidan

@Artefact
i still have no idea what you have not included this in Top 10 Best Spring 2010 Anime & Most Awaited of Summer......

owned !

Damn I hate fogs.

Finally, something worth watching!

more nerdy otaku shit,

god when will anime stop sucking balls

Yes, this season is full of delicious anime, not a single new anime of this season has disappointed me.

Waiting for some Saeko action

BOKUTO + APRON + THONG = WIN

Greatest Masterpiece indeed

Might have to check it out. Really all depends if it is funny/fun and not just pure fan service.

Not to sure if I like the drawing style, will have to see.

Eh, not my cup of tea. I like the pantsu and I like the zombies, but the art style seems really fucking ugly to me.

To each their own, I guess.

I hope the other two female characters are better cos Rei was simply pissy in EP1. Or I hope she gets better. Can't understand what Takashi sees in her.

I made alt OP. Not special, just good)
