What's made me appreciate it even more is the director's choice of using Maon Kurosaki vocalize different lyrics for each episode which suits each ending very well. Sound is great with Kishida Kyoudan & The Akeboshi Rockets "HotD" opening and the BGM sets the tone for every interaction within each episode, using rock as a theme. If you were expecting realism from a zombie-and-panty flick aimed at hormonal adolescents, then you're watching the wrong show. Whilst some proportions may have been overdone, well hey.its anime.

I knew this was going to be a series dedicated to a lot of fan-service for a particular audience.

I can feel my schoolboy heart rejoicing even now." At present, this would definitely have been a “buy” for me. "I’m aiming for something I would have bought myself in middle school. Tell us what motivated you to make Highschool of the Dead? Coming from artists well known for their over-the-top ecchi(Daisuke & Shōji Satō), I hadn't expected anything less when I first seen their character design, and when I heard from HotD's anime director Tetsuro Araki(well known for DeathNote) stating in an interview : From the well drawn scenery of a sunset backdrop that provides you that feeling of an impending doom, to the hack-and-slash execution of each action scene(which the zombie-lovers anticipate), one has to appreciate that HotD maybe a cut above the rest in terms of animation for this season. HotD is so entertaining, it's fanbase now consist of zombie-lovers(who tally the frags), ecchi fanboys(who howl at every moment of cleavage), action enthusiasts(who now has Kouta & Saeko in their favorites) and even whiners(who pretend to dislike the show and yet has kept up to the current episode). The emotions and reactions executed are both hilarious and captivating at the same time, and to me is just pure entertainment!Īnd are we entertained? Definitely. I don't know about you, but that in itself is plot. Now for those not into reality shows are probably asking why watch something if it doesn't even have a plot? We watch HotD for the 'over the top' reactions the cast get into when pitted with something that's out of the ordinary. HotD is in the same class, but better as it sticks your clichéd anime archetypes into a world infested with zombies. Look how big that became as an entertainment medium.

They may not be 'teh best' cast to date(mostly mediocre), but what's wrong with that? There once was a reality TV show who had crammed a group of nobodies into a house full of cameras just to see how they'd react and called it Big Brother.

If they were to ever find a cure in this show, I don't think it'd be by any of the casting members as they're too bothered with who likes who, and who has bigger breasts then the other. This series is about survival in its most basic whilst the 'subtle' plot unfolds. Whilst a 'subtle' plot does play in the background of a world on the brink of a zombie outbreak, one must understand that it will never be its main focus as we're lead by a group of high school kids and their ditzy school nurse. Plot: In fiction, the story of a play, novel, romance, or poem, comprising a complication of incidents which are gradually unfolded, sometimes by unexpected means. to just add this trivial information for those asking about the plot since some say its lacking or that there are none. Having come with no expectations, seeing as that ecchi seemed to ooze the moment you watch opening credits(something people should have noticed when they started this series), I was pleased and amused to what it had delivered. Of course this may change should the anime continue to be as entertaining as its been so far. Not a "very good" show, not even a "great" show, but a "good" show as it is.

After seeing the long line of reviews on HotD, I thought I'd say my piece on here to what I think is a "good" show.
