"I think arguing over which anime is better over others is cancer"
What the actual hell? Has the word "cancer" lost completely all meaning on the internet?
Having opinions and, god forbid, discussing shared interests is -not- cancer. I don't give a damn if you hate anime, but holy hell at least stop parroting complete nonsense and contributing to the collective retardation of the internet. Is it "cancer" to discuss what movies are better than overs now too? Better purge every movie discussion forum on the internet, then.
I'm not sure I agree with that other guys description. High School of the Dead is zombie apocalypse anime. Obviously it's very sexual, but one of the things that I liked about it was that the sexuality wasn't shoe-horned in. What I mean is, when an episode wants to be dark and serious, it is. When it wants to be sexual, it is. The pacing is good enough that the two don't have to fight for screen time, so you rarely have serious moments being ruined by fan-service. I would have enjoyed even without the fanservice. So yeah, it's good.
The first one she was being kidnapped and the other two were from the back against the wall moment where it looked hopeless. I see where you're coming from, but I don't think it was THAT well done. I really like the show though, but for different reasons.
Yeah I agree, I never was saying "10/10 best anime". Just that I enjoyed it for reasons that other people despise it. I mean the bullet went in between her breasts, that's hilariously ridiculous.
Have you forgotten the bullet-flying-through-flopping-tits scene? Or just blocked that from your memory?
Sexuality in HSotD is not subtle, tasteful, or mature in any way whatsoever. The entire series is nothing but gratuitous violence and gratuitous sexuality, and they are often smashed right up against each other, thrown in your face and impossible to ignore. If you like that, then fine, you're allowed to like it, but don't ******** about it being more or better than it actually is. It's shameless in it's content and how it presents it. Flip-flopping between bloody and serious to tits n ass does not prevent it from being "shoe-horned"
Personally thought it was one of the worser anime I've seen. Misshapen, watery tits and ass shoved in your face all the time. Everything being so convenient. The only thing it had going for it was a concept that hasn't really been done much(In this manner) - and a reasonable soundtrack.

I always hear about it being terrible and focusing more on being sexy than being seriously enjoyable to watch. I'm pretty sure that's true. Would you like a suggestion on a show to watch? I could give a few.
sure man. i mostly enjoy action, and comedy anime. im willing to try any genre though. i havnt watched all that much anime in general. mostly just the really big names / some stuff on netflix. some shows i havnt watched, but want to get around to are cowboy bebop, and hunter x hunter.

Well shoot, sorry to say but I lost my list and I forgot my replacement hasn't been updated in the last two months.
What I can recommend though is Wakfu. It's a French anime that is A+ in everything I rank shows in. The only downside is that the first few episodes start slow but it's a gradual build up done really, really well.
Make sure to watch it in French with English subtitles to get the best experience. An English dub does exist but it is sub-par and the original French voice acting is beyond excellent. I am most impressed by how the emotional tension ramps up later in the season. The show didn't become my favorite one until they reach the island they talk about but was really cemented as such by the episodes after that. It's great.
There's a second season and a third that is likely to be made in the future too. I've only seen the first season. How the subtitles are done matters a lot. I found a site that has good subtitles for the show if you want me to link it. With the exception of a single episode that was done by some careless overconfident nimwit.
The fun thing about that anime is when you ask people about it in public and they have to struggle to come up with some defense for it if they don't want to admit they watch neckbeard wankbait
I support this. Now whenever anyone asks me why I watched Highschool of the Dead, I can simply tell them it was for the plot and backstory. Lord knows, that's just about the only thing it's got going for it.
i use funnyjunk because there is some pretty good OC but its mostly just like a highlight real of humor going on around the web currently. is it the only website i use? no. but its the only one i really use for this purpose. no 4chan, 9gag, tumblr, or ******* like that for me. used to use memebase.com for my funnies, but i like the way funnyjunk works better. i guess what im saying is im supprised you were able to get that rod outta your backstory for long enough to talk right out of your ass. but do us a favor and put it back in.
Point still stands. Joke/idea has been around forever. People on here acting like it's the second coming of Christ because they refuse to pop their head out of the FunnyJunk circlejerk echo chamber is just embarrassing.
If you get this offended anytime someone points out facts, it's no wonder you refuse to frequent websites that aren't part of the FunnyJunk hivemind...

1 keer, deze site zit helemaal volgestopt met nederlands gekloot ik moet wel iets krijgen
i used this in a my college history of animation class to show off the differences of modern animation in most first world countries and to piss off the feminazi that sits around in that room and talks during our lectures
Penn Jilette, most famous from the Penn & Teller show, has made a career as an illusionist/entertainer, in Las Vegas. He has no connection to the meme "anime is le trash xd xd", he has just been chosen for his facial expression.
Penn Jillette The whole trash thing originally referred to resumes he didn't like, then /pol/ started using it for opinions, and over here it's used for anime and, to a lesser extent, steven universe.
Oh yeah a lazy thin veneer of satire is totes legit and not just a lazy cop out.
Nerfnow has been drawing all their females sexy since they started.
He drew tits and ass cause he knew people would see the thumbnail and click it.
I personally don't give a **** if there's T and A, and even if all it is, is T and A I don't care, I enjoy it, but don't ******* pretend it's anything more than that.
**anonymous used "*roll picture*"** **anonymous rolled image** This guy draws **** too though, as far as I know. And it's pretty good as far as the art style goes
