Highschool of The Dead
Thu 2010/04/29 22:45 JST

Just read Volume 1 of the manga today. One word: WOW. i just can't put it off. Now, I need some zombie-killing games to cool down my head.
Here's the trailer for HoTD anime, coming out this year July, I think.












It's good to see more zombie anime. >:3 Suddenly, I feel like playing L4D2 for some reason... XD
Say hi to Witch for me :)
I feel like a little Nacht der Untoten from WOW ^_~
"Here they come..." >:D
Hell yeah!! First it was House of the Dead, then Land of the dead, Left 4 Dead, now this is Highschool of the Dead!!!
Good for cushioning sniper rifles for precise zombie headshots... ^_^
Now if only he was an even remotely decent shot, he might be getting head shots...
Issue 6 of the manga is suppose to be slated for July, about the same time as the anime release.
Awesome read, but I prefer Saeko~
Serious girls with swords are always a win, like Mai. I don't like Rei, though. Painfully reminded me of my ex.
The best bipod money can buy :3
I didnt read the manga, but after seeing the PV wow, its very similar to Left4Dead in many ways and I'm gonna watch it!!!
Oh my. Now that is my kind of story. Watching the trailer puts the manga on the top of my "must read" list. The graphics in the anime look outstanding. Can't wait.
Can't wait for this.
Love the amount of fan-service in this :] This is a definite watch for me ! Like CamoMax, I too feel up for some Left 4 Dead 2 haha
I honestly don't know where to look... the m14 or...
Or maybe just a plain baseball bat :3
I would say the through Aimpoint on the M14 and after you have finished "business", then look at what is supporting the M14 ;p
Saw the trailer a few weeks ago. Certainly interested in seeing it. Have a figure from the series, and read a part of the manga online.
Aimpoint ^_^
Best advertisement ever? LOL XD
Ok... this is a DEFINATE watch for me. I was cracking up at the amount of fanservice. However, I can't say no to zombie anime ^_^
Definetly checking this out. ^^ Fan service (and zombies) ahoy! ^0^
Well, the artist of the series also does doujins under the name Inazuma, or Digital Accel Works, so you kinda expect it to be rather gratuitous~
Awesome! I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Looks good!
But, I saw more fan service and chatter then zombies. Would of rather had the opposite ^^;;..
Is it supposed to be like left4dead-ish? You know...they pretty much joke the entire time. Well in left 4 dead 1 >.>...
It's definately a fun read. There're a lot of zombie movie plugs here and there(Simon Pegg look alike is found working at a 7-11 in one chapter, although he has absolutely nothing to do with the story, his name tag read sai-mon in kanji). There's plenty of zombie scenes, but it's not purely a run & gun type scenario. For the most part, you'll find them planning lots.
as for that Simon Pegg look-alike, I've checked it out. Yup, he's there :)
This looks fantastic!!! It's got everything - I only hope it gets a Australian release - please, please, please (Are you listening Madman Entertainment?)
Tired of your old sniper stand? Do you always miss any shots? Then use....Opniper stand! Makes you have more accuracy and motivation! XD Like this satisfied customer!
Me: so how your sniping?
The guy: Shut up! I'm concentrating!
*shots multiple zombies in the head*
Me: And there you have it! Call now and get not just one but 2 more Opniper stands! Limited offer only.
Pretty high concentration, I must say, to not to be distracted by...ummm... :)
If not my favourite manga, it's definitely a close second. I've been reading HOTD from the beginning. The manga is just awesome as the author really tells the story so well. Not to mention the drawings are really attractive.
Worst part for the fans from the beginning was the huge hiatus we had to deal with. It's now on another hiatus after the 60 page chapter effort, but that chapter had one of the best cliffhangers in recent times.
I can't wait for the anime. I really hope it doesn't deviant from the manga. I have so much hope for this anime I can't express it properly in words. :)
Totally agree, the manga is freakin sick, great art and story. anyone know how many eps long its gonna be?? oh and Busujima ftw!!!
Yes, just by reading Vol 1, I uttered f**k & s**t many times. Pure awesomeness!
Yeah. I've been waiting for months, checking from time to time if there's any new content. Hopefully, the anime adaptation will make up for it.
this only reminds me how eff'd japan would be during a zombie apocoplyse. a an isolated, highly concentrated megalopolis with a strong reliance on technology with almost no firearms what so ever.
they wont last a week.
Some Japanese people might have read "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks ^_^ Well, if they failed to survive, Japan might be the host of the largest "Thriller" gathering ever on Earth.
I'm so glad I live in the Philippines! Guns everywhere! XD
Get? yeah why not :)
I think there would be a scene that the zombie strips the girls uniform...
this manga has an amazing storyline, could probably go beyond an anime and make a movie out of this
One of my favorite manga out there, mostly because it's about zombies LOL XD
Can't wait for the anime. Judging from the trailer and the manga, I have to prepare myself to get flooded by fanservice!
