Some of you guys take this series way too seriously.
Highschool of the Dead

@Thousand:
I'm tempted to watch this series just for the magic boobs. Do they always move like that or was it just a special scene?
Yeah, everytime there is a possibility for bouncing boobs they do bounce :ninja:
-
Anyone know if the manga is getting it's hiatus lifted now that the Anime has come around?
-
@bunshindattebayo:
Glorious.

Sickening.
And I'm a guy. =\
-
That was awesome, you all are just baboon-butts.
-
Epic! Also, I just got around to reserving Highschool of the Dead Vol. 1 coming out January 4th from RightStuf. Read the manga online before OM closed up. Very intriguing. Gonna keep up with this series.
-
not hard to since there's only like 30 chapters out on the net.
-
I mean that unlike Shaman King, Naruto, and Lupin III, which I gave up on and have no plans of ever reading again (though I might buy the Lupin Anime MAYBE), I will follow this series through till it's end. Can't wait for September 9th.
-
srsly tho the intro rocks.
-
9th episode is out :)
Well nice so far, Saeko got some profile. Like that character a lot
-
I don't know much about the series…yet but I found this AMV while browsing Youtube. I think you all should take a look at it.

I need to catch up on the anime, its actually quite awesome~ O_O
-
A shame it's a bout to catch up to the manga. :/
-
learns that Highschool of the Dead is Shonen
Huh, I guess standards vary depending on the magazine. -

Well not really, since this season is only 13 episodes and (as far as I know) it is not sure if there's another season …
So: is it popular enough to get another season?

Well, It should be, but the problem is the Mangaka.
-
I just got to chapter 19. It's pretty damn cool, nothing spectacular, but a fun read. This is good. I wonder if there are anymore zombie manga out there.
What's the latest chapter of this manga btw?
-
26 is the last chapter out. New chapter is supposed to come out sometime in October.
-
Awesome, then I'm all caught up and eagerly await the next chapter.
-
I would like Saeko more if she wasn't such a huge misogynist.
"Women like to be protected by men!"
"Aren't you a man?"
"Because I'm a woman!"
"I'm a woman, after all!"
"I'm a woman, you know!"
"Woman woman woman woman."It's a shame because compared to the other women in the show she's the best of the lot (Rei is being treated pretty kindly by the TV series: in the manga it seemed apparent that she was a jealous, opportunistic, manipulative b*tch), which is frankly sad.
I feel like I'm watching Fate/Stay with Shiro telling Saber to get back in the kitchen all over again. Stupid Japan.
-
Lol true but I think she's just trying to make Takashi feel better. Raise his confidence and stature as the leader of the group. She can very well protect herself but she knows the group needs a confident and unanimous leader. Takashi is the man for the job.
-
See, I would agree with you… if she hadn't said it about every man we've seen except the skeevy professor on the bus. She's said it in front of Takashi, she said it about Kohta when he pointed the nailgun at Glasses McMindrape on the bus… she even said it about the boy who died to protect Shizuka in the second episode. I mean, she's pretty liberal with "That's right, you're a man, you take the lead because my OVARIES are preventing me from making proactive decisions." When Takashi was decided on rescuing Alice, she was like, "mmmhmm, man making MAN choices." It's a BIT much.
I mean I know she's basically fanboy fetish fuel just like all the other characters in the show, but the "What a splendid man you are!"s and "I'm a woman you know?!"s smack of a chauvinism above and beyond the call of duty. To be honest, it makes up so much of her dialogue that, opposed from the sparse sensible remark, it's difficult for me to imagine her NOT reminding us that she's of the fairer sex. Like we'd forget.
It's silly. Especially because she's clearly just as capable as he is.
-
To be honest, I found the whole side plot with Saeko a little… out of left field. I can't put it into words, but I feel like she's been demoted to a psychopath who gets off on killing people. I have no respect for her anymore, sorry to say.
To be completely honest, the only girl in this series I have any respect for is the little girl (who's name escapes me) because she's not a walking can of "ass an' boobs" and because she's the most realistic female in the bunch somehow. Both the guys kick ass though. Oh, and the dog.

Oh, that all reminds me of something.

She'll do whatever she can to keep them from snapping. It's easy and don't forget she's a woman.To be honest, I found the whole side plot with Saeko a little… out of left field.

Ehh…I'm not much of a fan of Hirano. Ever since that little girl joined the group he's been giving off a pedo vibe. Then he starts losing his mind and wants to give up on everybody and shoot random zombies. Not cool, though I think he's back to normal now. I like his marksmanship and everything but he needs to lay off the little girl.
Oh, and does everyone have frequent mood swings in this manga? 1 page they're smiling the next they're biting each other's heads off.

learns that Highschool of the Dead is Shonen
Huh, I guess standards vary depending on the magazine.Shonen is just a label. Many companies do that just so that they can try to get sales from the younger crowd. Most shops place series like these in the erotic section anyways. (Champion RED is also labeled shonen and most of their manga are blurring the lines between porn and not-porn)
There are actually many things you could look up on this, but PTA organizations are trying to get standards in place for manga magazines. Many girls magazines (that can be sold to elementary and middle school students) contain such things as sex, rape, and various other things that would be banned if in any other format. Sho-comi and Ciao are the most infamous including things such as instructions on how to perform fellatio in their magazines.
Just so you can be sure of what I am talking about, check out these 3 manga and tell me how the target audience could ever have been thought of as being shonen and shoujo.
Seikon no Qwazer (listed as Shonen by it's publisher; Anime is R-15)
Yomeiro Choice (more porn related than Futari ecchi, Same magazine as Seikon no Qwazer)
Kaikan Phrase (lots of Rape and Sex…in Shojou Comic Magazine. Voted worst manga publication by PTA because 9-12 year olds read this magazine)Well, with the exception of Kaikan Phrase, the magazine publications that those books lie under are mostly sold to otaku anyway so it doesn't really amount to much....those girl's magazines, however, are read by a lot of people....

(Aki-sora being placed with porn books….holy fuck at this, this is in a magazine labeled appropriate for a 12 year old to buy...incest nearly unedited....)

It's probably because it happens at a really weird time. In the manga, their separation from the group happens AFTER the events at Takagi's house, and it makes a lot more sense there because it's less out of character for Takashi and seems to come at a reasonable time for Saeko. In the anime they bumped it up because the series will probably only be 13 episodes long, which means it'll end while they're at Takagi's house…
...and since Saeko's chapters don't happen until after that in the manga, if the series ended where everyone thinks it well, she wouldn't have gotten any character development at all. That's probably why it feels out of left-field.
It is.

I didn't get pedo vibes. To me, he's acting like a big brother. I mean, the girl lost her father; I'd be doing the same thing if that were me, tbh.

Thanks for the info. If the manga is ongoing, maybe they'll make a second season.

Ah, I can understand of taking care of the little kid but sitting a total stranger's child in your lap?
! Not to mention she didn't have any underwear on while all of that was going on.
! Of course he wouldn't know that but it doesn't change the fact. Oh, and then there's this.
! The pedo vibes are strong with this one.

Well I would have argued about the sitting in the lap thing, but that last page blows any argument I would have come up with. The second and third page didn't happen in the anime, right? I recall the second one in the anime a little, but I don't think they elaborated on why she was embarrassed.
So yeah, minus points for you Hirano. You're still awesome though with your guns.

I think it was in episode 8 the the underwear thing happened. The 3rd page has yet to happen in the anime. That's a panel from when they are in the mall.

new chapter… http://www.mangareader.net/170-57442-1/high-school-of-the-dead/chapter-27.html
next chapter will be in December, how the hell does the author make his living out out this? -
Hmm,this chapter was ok,not to much going on in it though.
And it's the December Issue,doesn't mean it comes out in December,it will be sold November 9th and translated shortly after that.
-
Saeko is about to crack… I enjoyed the chapter, at least they got a bunch of new guns now.
-
Wow.. I just love how the bullet's air pressure moved those gigantic boobs in the Chapter 26…. RIPPLES!!!!.... :silly:

Ahh~ this would explain so much.

Pretty nice episode. But is it ending at episode 12, or will this be 13 episodes?
How far does the manga go past the current anime plot? Any chance for a second season?
-
12 episodes.
I'm still on ep 9, but Madhouse is taking their time (9 episodes = 9 manga chapters), so i'm guessing they do intend to resume the series eventually. At this pace, there's material enough for a 2nd season at least. -
They're only doing 1 more confirmed episode? That's pretty lame ass considering it was just getting good. Guess I'll have to start reading the manga cause it doesn't look like it will come back for the fall season renewal.
-

-
I really liked the wrap up for this anime and they definitely left it open to continue, so here's hoping for a second season. I read an OVA will be released with the tenth volume of the manga in February… Should be interesting.
Guess I'll have to read the manga now to continue the story for now.
-
The ending was handled pretty well. It left a lot open but somehow it is made like the story ends here.
I'm hoping for a 2nd season though :) -

-
Do you know of torrent sites for free HQ downloads for all episodes?
-
I like the releases of gg
-
Not enough material for a 2nd season. So far all they really have to animate is the mall scene which would be 3-4 episodes.
-
Well so we can say the earliest date for a possible 2nd season will be next year's fall/winter?
-
Not enough material for a 2nd season.
Yeah, i forgot how they moved some later chapters so the anime could cover all that stuff with Saeko earlier..in the end, this season used more or less 17 chapters.
Which means there's 10 chapters left so far, Madhouse will have to wait a while if they plan to keep going. -
i thought i heard there was an OVA coming out sometime. so i doubt a season 2 ever considering how shitty this author is on releases. expect just ova's once or twice a year
-
Yes, in February.
