[Coalguys] Highschool of the Dead Episode 1

--------------

Glad to see it's faithfull to the manga from the start. Jumping right into the action. Pretty intense first episode if you ask me. I'm glad they animated it well. Really like the ED song.

This show looked like a keeper. Granted, the fanservice is there prominently but on the other hand if you consider zombies at large as an idea, they are rather carnal no matter how you look at them - so why no make the rest of the show just as carnal? It's fitting, so I won't be complaining (not that I'd complain about fanservice anyway as long as the whole show isn't just one big blob of service with nothing in between (aka Queen's Blade)).

I like the level of violence and how the people getting eaten alive were screaming and squirming. Such details factor heavily in a good zombie show. It was also important the karate dude got infected and killed (whoever thought of fighting contagious zombies hand-to-hand and lived to tell the tale?).

Yeah, I'm expecting more amusing episodes from this series.

[Penner]

Oh man, that was just awesome on all levels.

I seriously laughed at Takashi's instant reaction to that guy walking into the school fence, he just went straight to "Some rapist?" lol

I guess their school is prone to rapist attacks?, and from seeing what the girls in that school look like and what they wear, it's like a damn rape magnet lol

[Archangel]

2 words: Fucking Awesome!

[RyougaZell]

Why the fuck does a group start a series if they are undecided to do it in the first place? CoalGuys say on their site they are leaning towards dropping the show.

Christ, ATXHD >:|

Sentai’s subs are ok but tler finished the translation before I could even check, so might as well. Then I took another 2 hours fixing the encode b/c atx is being atx.

I’ll have another week to figure out if I should drop this or no (leaning towards yes)

P.S. filesize is an accurate representation of how god tier the animation is

Is the other group, Commie, good?

[Archangel]

Oh yeah commie is the golden flag of fansubbing, go for it...

[Sapphire]

Oh dear god I love this show. I have a nose bleed from all this awesomeness. I will perhaps make a more articulate post when I calm down or just leave it at that.

[RyougaZell]

I've been dying to see this animated ever since I read the manga. Its fucking brilliant.

Broken friendships... human stampedes... suicide... it was just pure utter chaos.

But damn... Hisashi wanted to die before converting into a zombie and they stood there like idiots... and he changed before their eyes. Ouch.

[NeoCybercoin]

I already crave for the next episode.

[MFauli]

Wow, that turned out to be as awesome as I expected it
Loved the 28 weeks later-song variation at the end.
Lots of potential here. Though all the panty-shots felt really out of place...wtf

Though, I wonder if this series´ depiction of human behavior as really that believable. Im sure there would be a lot of assholes if such thing happened in reallife. But here, basically EVERYONE but the main group turned into mindless assholes. I guess it´s simply easier to follow a small group than having, whatever, 50 people survive and portray them in-depth.

Looking forward to episode 2.

[David75]

I'm just wondering what tricks they'll use -other than lots of flashbacks- to serialize a zombie show

[shinta|hikari]

Hisashi deserved it. The reason why he got bitten was because of his arrogance. Even a karate-ka would use weapons in such situations, especially because too little is known about the enemy.

The girl was funny though. Blaming the MC for killing her boyfriend in the worse possible way, then begging him to stay the next. I kind of wanted to throw her into the zombie pool.

[Idealistic]

OMG... Already a favorite for me.

[JaySee]

Oh yeah commie is the golden flag of fansubbing, go for it...

Commie is definitely the one to watch. Coalguys' translation is horrible. Rubbles? There's a fight in the school. Evacuate. That makes sense...

[KrayZ33]

Awesome! it doesn't need the Ecchi scenes to be this good though (makes it harder for me to recommend it for people who are not into such movies/series)

can't wait for more.

btw, are their 2 different versions?
the PV showed how the teacher, who climbed out of the window, fall onto the ground (you could see how his head got smashed).

yeah i already hate her... hope it wont end with both of them dating or some shit

[Archangel]

Lol, unless she gets eaten by one of those zombies i'm pretty sure that's what's gonna happen

[shinta|hikari]

I certainly hope not. There are other girls, like the twin tailed girl (who seems to like the MC) or the sword chick.

[Kraco]

I wouldn't really leave it to the Japanese if I was looking for a surprising story development but maybe this series will be different. I would be immensely pleased if the stock girl didn't get the guy. I already like the sword girl the most despite her low screentime so far. I hope she will get him (and a real sword).

[Buffalobiian]

I disliked it during the moment, but in retrospect it was actually good - like the girls who were "friends". When shit goes chaotic, so does your thoughts.

I still dislike the amount of fanservice this has, but like the above, I would even go as far to say it's "necessary", to pull this show back from being 150% intense. It's distracting, and that's probably the point.
