Review of High School of the Dead

There comes a time when I was a little girl, I watched an old zombie movie with artificial flesh floating around thin air and zombies munching brains and muscles of people. Astounding, Awesome and Appealing. 3 Amazing A's. First off, I am not a pervert and psychopath girl who watch nude people and women with huge breasts. I love watching different genres of anime (except yaoi and yuri) as long as they have high ratings and lots of people love them, I have various perspectives and my mind is open for everything. (except porn) What is HOTD? and why do people associate it with porn, nudity, boldand other ecchi stuff? The truth is I didn't have the guts to search this anime in google so I bought its DVD (guilty) not knowing anything about its background.

All I know is that I loved its magnificent quality, ideal story line and it is affiliated with zombies. After watching and completing the anime serie and OVA, here are the words that I need to say.

The plot is concentrated on a virus being spread around a school which include the main characters such as, 1 annoying child, 5 students and 1 school personnel. The virus can basically turn anyone into a zombie (like all other movies). Almost all of the students were affected and transformed into a human eating machine but the characters successfully survived (not telling any spoiler because I didn't tell you how many of them continued living). Harem is also present within the characters and also a love story. I like d the fact that HOTD presented more on the killing, bashing and terminating of zombies than the superficial romance. What bothered me was the overly huge sized boobs of females that were distracting and far-fetched. I'm a girl and it bothers me.. UGH. It was between sexy and disgusting. I'll even tell you a secret, I remembered that there was one love scene but I didn't liked it at all. It was a super filler that wasn't needed to complete the story. I give it a 5 because I didn't believe that it was unique at all and the fan service ruined the whole thing for me. Especially that ridiculous infamous shotgun scene.

Art has a different sense of style. Tall people with little heads. Gorgeous girls that has inhuman body parts. What guys dream of.

Sound looks undeniably simple and unmemorable for me. The opening has its mild rock theme and some saxophone filled sound effects for the ecchi parts.

Characters were not likable in my opinion. Takashi, the fat guy with glasses and Saeko were my favorites in the show but didn't stand out in my perspective while watching bunch of other animes after this one. I guess I didn't feel that "Oh My God! That's him/her".

I only desired some parts like the brutal massacre of zombies and having the idea of action-packed scenes with magnificent tools! I liked the mop weapon, baseball bat and the stapler gun! Those were my absolute favorite parts of this show. Kind of makes me wonder what I'll use when a zombie apocalypse tried to engage in our school. I"D LOVE THAT! It's a shame that only minimal jokes were funny and good.

I didn't like this at all. Its too much bold and nude. Some people often calls this porn. It's a shame that when people make one of the characters in HOTD your profile picture, people will discriminate you and develop a sense of disgust. In my opinion, I only want to see it because of its zombie apocalypse theme (true story) I've been wanting to watch a zombie anime genre for years and I wished it had that great feeling when I used to watch a zombie movie when was I kid but sadly it was flat and all over the place. I long for its less nudity and more on the killing stuff and also execute love stories properly without putting sexual opportunities. I give this anime 3 P's: Porn, Profanity and Poor.

If you want to watch it, please don't. But if you are a pervert and you enjoy big breasted women and their underwear scooting all over your screen and moaning sexual words. That's okay too. If you're up for it then go.
