That'd have been cool but honestly I'd take anything as long as it isn't in a "lighter tone". That's really fucking gay because there's already not blood or serious storytelling. What the fuck are they thinking?
Speaking of which I just caught up on the fan translation and right before the final battle this happens
Own the series and think it's pretty good, haven't rewatched it in a while though. I don't know if I'd consider it super spooky besides maybe the last arc (Bloodstained Labyrinth) which I remember freaking me out a bit, you're in it more for the fun cast exploring haunted places. Series also has a pretty memorable Christmas episode because I still get depressed thinking about it, that and the last arc are the stand outs in my opinion. Don't know if it makes a difference, but I only ever watched it dubbed since it was one of those early anime I got into, which I found pretty decent and would recommend checking out if possible.
I came across this one back in 08-09, iirc. Pretty great, but unfortunately it never got renewed for a second season.
The character designs, some of the animation, and the style is straight out of classic mecha shit like the 90s Getter Robo OVAs but other parts like the CGI and some of the backgrounds (pretty much anything technology, like the laboratory) clash with the style and feels like most late 00s/10s mecha shows.
If you haven't seen these older titles, I'd definitely recommend: 3x3 Eyes, Apocalypse Zero, Angel Cop, Genocyber, Lily C.A.T. and MD Geist. For "newer" anime: Asura, Blood-C, Corpse Party, Gantz and Rin: Memories of Mnemosyne.
Honestly, I'd direct newcomers to Corpse Party to the manga if they don't want to play through the game itself. The OVA is practically a "greatest moments" speedrun and goes for a bad end that honestly doesn't make sense if you don't know the true context of the game.
Modern fans would claim it to be too old, unfortunately, so it's not really even a "newer" anime at this point outside of the movie. Still is sad the series seems to have been ignored, although the infamous anime ending may have done more harm than good.
), you’ll probably enjoy it.
How did the anime end? I’ve only watched the manga and I assumed it was just left incomplete after the first big arc like most unfinished adaptations.
Kei decides to try to take down the big bad train that started him down that path because reasons. Ends badly for him lel.
Maybe try Guyver or Ninja Scroll.
Dude no. Genocyber and MD Geist aren't for even the slightly fainthearted.
Passed those already mentioned:
It's not that gory, but it's still dang good.
I've heard of a few of these, but corpse party is one of the ones i'm kind of on the fence with? I guess I should've established what my limit was but like, really as long as it isn't saw torture porn or nail horror (higurashi) I'll sit through it more or less? All I know is a girl gets her tongue cut out in corpse party but I don't know if it gets worse from there or if that's like the like- the peak if that makes sense? But i'll probably check a few of these out regardless!
I've actually seen genocyber tbh. Not that bad, legit the main reason I saw it was after googling some "most goryest anime" stuff and I was directed to the photo of the one lab guy and his skin was flayed off. They had the whole thing on youtube and it MIGHT still be there, but I don't think I ever finished it. Geist looks interesting, even if I have no idea what it's about.
These i'm also familiar with, but haven't checked them out yet. I might give them a go, especially vampire hunter D since i've heard about that one the most. Highschool of the dead i've also beat around the bust and I just need to sit down and watch it more or less. I did try to keep up with parasyte when it came out, but the fact it was one of the adult swim late night things and I was just lazy waiting every week was why I stopped.
lol, the anime sucked but this is fucking perfect.
