Highschool of the Dead (H.O.T.D.) held about 12 episodes, created in the year 2010. But, after the 12th episode of this highly liked series, judging by the viewing polls, the anime was, to the dismay of the fans, canceled and discontinued. It was such a loved anime that the fans were in more than just your average uproar to bring back highschool of the dead. So, with as popular as this anime actually was, why wasn’t the season continued as just about every other anime series is? Why take away something that was getting a network more than enough hits and views to have said continuation? And, why hasn’t there been enough persuasion to bring back the anime?

The reply to this inquiry seems to be based upon two reasons. One of the reasons that Highschool of the Dead was not continued was because the creators of the anime went to work on another project called Triage X. The characters in this project and H.O.T.D held too many similarities between them. And, with most shows, there doesn’t look to be a good audience base when two shows seem to mimic one another.

Another reason, this one probably being the more serious of the two, was that H.O.T.D was becoming too sexual. Now, that may or may not say something when Japan is the birth parent of the more adult version of anime called Hentai. Plus, in addition, there was a younger girl who looked as though she might have been an elementary or middle school student which might have made the sexual nature of this show take a turn for the worst.

So, while H.O.T.D may have seemed to be an enjoyable program to watch, it appeared that it wasn’t going in the right direction. If Daisuke Sato were to bring back this highly popular show, the script would possibly need to be cleaned up, changed around so that the center of the story was about the children’s survival of the zombie apocalypse, and make it so that it didn’t have so much sexual content within it.

Of course, if it was brought back by the popular demand of the fans, it would still carry the high set entertainment value, the edge of your seat thrills, and the exciting action that everyone is known to love. Would it still hold the interest of the fans without the heavy-set sexual content? Sex, after all, is one of those subjects that sell in the industry of marketing. However, who’s to say that it wouldn’t still keep the attention of its fan base? Who’s to say that it doesn’t have the chance of becoming the most popularly acclaimed anime of the year? Well perhaps, the only way to find this out is to cosplay the characters of Highschool of the Dead!

High School of the Dead follows a straightforward formula — just take a group of high school students and turn their world upside-down with a zombie invasion. In just a matter of minutes, you’ve got a story with horror, drama, violence, and some black humor too. True to the midnight movie, roots of this story, Daisuke and Shouji Sato also give readers a heaping helping of T and A along with the blood and guts.

On practically every page of High School of the Dead, you can count on seeing three things: zombies chewing on flesh, a terrified high school students, and a flash of panties or cleavage from some ridiculous angle. For the most part, High School of the Dead delivers on the promise of its title and cover art — if you pick it up expecting great literature, you’ve got no one to blame but yourself if this book falls short of that standard.On the upside, High School of the Dead is a fast-paced read that dives right into the action.

While the threat of being eaten alive by zombies is terrifying, the survivors must also deal with a bigger problem: each other. Stripped of their usual roles and identities, students and teachers’ personalities are transformed, friendships are betrayed, and long-simmering resentments come to a boil.This alone would make for an entertaining horror comic, and for the most part, that’s what High School of the Dead is.

Sato’s artwork does a pretty good job of telling the story, but the main downside to this first volume is its high ratio of fanservice to plot. I’ve been around enough manga to be able to stomach an occasional panty shot and some cheeky flashes of cleavage, but the near unrelenting T and A in this book is obnoxious and distracting.It’s probably just my hang-up, but I had a hard time stomaching the gratuitous scenes of the school nurse and her humungous rack.

Modern engineering is amazing, but as far as I know, there are no brassieres that can mold breasts into pointy, pendulous torpedo-shaped projectiles.I know fanservice is a big part of Japanese manga, and it’s never going to go away. I’m not against it, because when it’s done right, it can be a fun wink and a smile to readers. However, fanservice is supposed to be cheeky and sexy, not utterly ridiculous and distracting. In this case, the fanservice in High School of the Dead ends up doing a disservice to an otherwise trash-tastic horror comic.
