Does anybody here watch HOTD?

I think it`s hilarious.

HOTD is...

Zombies, Gore, Drama, Suspense and... FANSERVICE!
It`s so much that I just can`t stop laughing, even when someone is getting devoured by a zombie.
Why it`s so funny?

"Oh my god someone`s getting dragged down, bitten and blood is all over the pla- ...nice panties."



So what do you guys think about it?

I'm watching it. It's pretty good, except for those giant boobs...

Yeah, HoTD is really entertaining. And even if it isn't that amazing I feel like it's the only noteworthy show of this season. All the others will be forgotten soon enough (except K-ON, of course).

But some scenes are so over the top I just have to pause the vid a moment to realize what just happened. Like, Hirano giving his little speech to that creepy teacher. It was so incredibly over dramatic. Or the scene they start the bridge fight, and Rei jumps like 20 meters into the air. Meh, still mindless fun though.

Also I like female characters with purple hair that are all mature like. So there's also that.

If by this you mean that there should be more zombie futanari, then I wholeheartedly agree.

As for the rest, I have no complaints. Brilliant, blood-soaked, tits-laden festival of absolute meaninglessness. Too bad it's only planned for 13 episodes.

HOLD THE PHONE. EVERYONE HOLD ON A SECOND.

Am I to understand that there are crotch shots of the male sex organ (referred to in my private writings as the Organ Dicktactular) fully erect, bulging through pants? Is this what you're telling me?

I've only seen previews of the show, so if this is the case I might actually watch it. Because, frankly, there's not enough cock in the media I enjoy. I want to see the lusty eye of the camera lingering on the men the way it does on the women. Is this the case?

Sweet space-monkey Jesus, if this is true... oh... oh yes.

Nope.

There aren´t any crotch shots but it´s HEAVILY implied that the men are constantly getting boners. (Nosebleed etc.)

It´s a rather male-oriented anime, as you might have guessed already.

Women should avoid this.


Women are obsessed with dicks like men are obsessed with tits?
That´s new to me, honestly.
But who am I to judge.

UGH FAIL. And, and... and... I was so excited. ;_;

Well, I'm rather hypersexual in my lustiness, so don't look to me for the opinion of the average anything. Still, I'm getting bored of fanservice that is aimed solely at a single demographic (even though I also like looking at girls). I'd like my fanservice to be more... bisexual. But that's just me being selfish.

Some women, like me, would rather see a nice man back (as for me, man or woman... both are good) then a dick.

This anime might be the best of the July season. I don't really go with this type of show, but I like it so far (except for those giant boobs, as I said before... I mean, I like boobs, but those are too big..)

HOTD is pretty good, but I do think they go overboard with the fan service at times. It was fine when they were hanging out at the house, but when their back out in the streets fighting zombies I expect the focus to shift back to the zombies and not stay on the female characters “assets”.

I've been watching it, though I need to catch up on the latest few episodes. I find it highly entertaining and I'm very glad that there's finally a zombie apocalypse anime out there. Most other shows with zombies really downplay the role of the zombie (Hellsing, for example). However, one thing that bugs me is that, because it is an aired show, it's too tame. The violence isn't all that great, and I don't think I've seen any guts or hanging organs yet, which is an insult to the zombie series the name is obviously referencing. Had this show been an OVA, this could be a simple fix.

But I digress. I'm having fun watching a moeblob cast fighting zombies, and I'll will definitely be seeing this one through.

From what I gather it is being remarkably true to the source material.

I hope that's true because I've heard the manga gets pretty grim/dark later on, so hopefully the anime will do the same. I don't want them chickening out just because its being aired on TV.

Plenty of black bits of censorship though eh? after shjowing us zombie head getting smashed in the first episode why even on atx did they choose to censor it, best example being the zombie drilling, so according to Japanese television T&A perfectly fine but violence against zombies is bad? roll on the uncut DVD & Blu-Ray releases
