Viewers of newly airing “School Apocalypse: Highschool of the Dead” are acclaiming it as “the greatest masterpiece of the season” and “a godly anime” for its unsubtle combination of schoolgirl pantsu and bloody zombie carnage.
The character of the anime can be readily ascertained from the screens below.
The OP:
The blood spattered breasts and panchira:
Blood and pantsu are a winning combination it would seem.
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??)
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. :/
Have to agree, I just don't see much point in watching this mediocre emo story, sure there are plenty of fanservice, but who the f**k cares when you can just download some Inazuma doujins and fap away to some real porn?
because after one episode the entire series is emo.
High School of the Dead is an interesting portrayal if a specific genre of horror movies actually became real. How would you react to people being eaten alive fucking in front of you? I highly doubt you would be going "awesome".
Emo? Emo? Do you bastard ignorants even know the definition of emo? Fucking idiots the lot of you.
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.
They didn't focus on the carnage enough? Did you pop into the kitchen to fix a sammich and miss the montages of schoolgirls being ripped apart and eaten alive?
I imagine the BDs will have even MORE carnage, too.
Also, "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."?
You don't think that in such a situation any Japanese teenage boy (And a fair amount of girls) would be like "Well, looks like we're going to die horribly... Want to fuck?" You should count yourself lucky that ep 2 probably isn't going to involve a ten minute make-out scene. :P
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.
It's different than what we've been getting fed the past few seasons, THAT'S why it's getting so much attention. It may no be fillet mignon, but at least it's not more "delicious cake" shoved down our throats.

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.
Apparently not. I, personally try not to make comparisons within zombie media because much of the content has already been done or is similar to another zombie story. Take the case of Dead Rising versus Dawn of the Dead. The production company from DotD wanted to sue Capcom for the whole "Zombies in a shopping mall" however the case was thrown out on the grounds of "The scenario of zombies attacking a mall is an "unprotectible theme" under copyright law." Also... I think L4D is a terrible comparison if you do insist on treading that path.
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
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!

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

Yeah say that when you have a horde of zombies just wanting to get at you from every corner of your body.
The girl is annoying though.
I'm thinking I'll like this series. Though too much tits and not any shota!

No, because everyone would be busy dying and fighting for their lives to think about sex at that particular moment.
Look. it was a fucking good sammich. LAY OFF THE SAMMICH
Actually, i find the anime alright, will be looking forward to the other episodes.
WTF! WIN!
Hope there'll be a game.
So this is like Ikki Tousen but with zombies.
I'm watching this show for K-kyodan. That is all.

BTW stupid bitch in the show is annoying.

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

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

Yes, Turtle Rock invented the zombie genre and everyone else stole zombies from them.
That is exactly what happened.
Obviously.
AFTER SO MANY MONTHS WITHOUT ITS MANGA THIS IS IT YES BABY YES: MY LIFE HAS MEANING AFTER ALL FMA RELATED CRAP ENDED
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.
It is. One or two good ones can't save the anime industry as whole. This moe-blob shit has to stop.
Anime is going downhill, the only thing saving the anime industry from dying are well thought out mangas with plots that get adapted.
These days everything else is just smut.
so this is why the fucking series is on hiatus?
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.
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^
Masterpiece indeed :) Moeness hell yeah ;)
BEST. COMBO. EVER.
What? Shit and crap?
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)

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.
you should read the manga its already ahead on the fan service
