Personal Thoughts:
Highschool of the Dead, Pantsu of the Dead, Boobies of the Dead… pretty much sums it up. Another Madhouse failure in my opinion. The series started out great, but did not meet nor exceed my expectations, come one Madhouse lets kick it up a notch. From other sources, I have been told that the series follows the manga fairly well for a couple of episodes. Then they decide to cram 100+ pages of the manga into one 24 minute episode. I also felt that HOTD lost the flow of the story about 4-5 episodes in. And on another note…. booby bullet time was an interesting completely unrealistic concept… I hope to never see that in another anime ever again.
Setting that all aside, I partially enjoyed the series. The ED’s were all great and the OP was perfect for the series. The series did no justice to developing the characters, but most of the characters were likable. Favorite character of the series will have to go to Takagi Saya. Tsundere ftw \o/
