High School of The Dead 2012-06-21 18:44:15 Reply

A (the first?) zombie apocalypse anime set in high school, thus the title. After two episodes I can pretty much some up this series from here on out typical cliche anime sex appeal and humor. This series just can't give it a break yes I like boobs no need to flop it in my face every five seconds get on with the damn story. The characters are uninteresting cliches themselves. You got the humble but serious main character, the love interest, the bitchy pink haired girl, the bad-ass purple haired girl and the chubby wimp with a blood craving alter ego.

Despite all that something about humans whooping zombie ass and vice versa is always entertaining, and with only 12 episodes...what the hell this, series is worth finishing just to see how it ends.

6/10

You forgot the blond big boobie lady, and later on the innocent little girl, and the pet mascot.
And of course it has sexual appeal. The creator of HotD does hentai stuff as well, after all. Still, it's fun to watch, but the anime ends too soon. The manga is further into the story, so you may want to give that a shot as well if you're into it.

Plus, nothing beats boobs and bullets in slo-mo, man.

Its not bad, but its definitely overrated. Too typical of a ecchi to be honest, only thing that defines it from others is that it isnt a comedy. Id give it about the same too which is probably the first time ive ever agreed with you.

Didnt watch the series, but I can imagine. unnecessary nudity/arousing scenes annoys me sometimes as well. Some pron is oke, but I dont like to get aroused every 10 seconds.

Oh trust me Im didn't expect it to get any better, especially with the shy blondie big boob introduced in ep2. This is why I hate most anime comedy. shoehorning boobs and panty shots for a whole fucking scene is neither funny nor erotic. I'm trying to get invested in a story, not rub off a quickie.

Weeabo.

I hope your just trolling, because I'm the FAR from a weeaboo. The only anime I actually like is DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Rurouni Kenshin. I very rarely seek new anime and never had genuine interest to buy or even finish any of the one I've checked out. This included as far as buying goes.
Anyway educate yourself

You have a poor sense of the word obsessive, four is hardly and obsessive amount. Getting into 4 anime that are action focused versus getting into 80 with ten of each being a different genre is a huge difference. Plus I never bought a manga, or pretended I understand Japanese because of words I've seen enough in sub dialogue and I never cosplayed or went to a convention.

I barely scratch the ice berg of what weeaboos do.

Meh.

The fan service was really, really annoying; I mean, I'm okay with a little, but there were literally moments where the screen was so covered with boobs I couldn't see a thing. A shame, cuz the action was pretty cool.

Also very anticlimatic.

Dem action scenes were fantastic, though.

6/10

Ignorantly underexposed.

Do you even know what weeaboo is? There is a difference between being anime fan and being ridiculously obsessive of Japan in general kiddo.

Wow, the previous 4 must've been pretty terrible for you to express such dislike of it.

As much as they like to show girls bouncing there assets all over the place it's kinda hard not to see that as attempt humor. Hell in the second episode the short chubby guy gets unintentionally tit slapped by blondie big boob running by.

however this statement does still apply considering I only laughed once and it wasn't even a genuine laugh if was one of those "of course they would do that" laughs.
