![]() ![]() If I had to say what makes it so incredible, I would cite the short series length, the clever plot with a brilliant resolution, and outstanding animation as the main contributing factors, although the promise of blood will probably be enough for most people to decide whether this show is for them or For twelve weeks, it was my priority above all else to watch this amazing series, and to be honest, I'm already awaiting the release of the OVA in May. ![]() As a series of tragedies arise around them, it is now up to Kouichi, Mei, and their classmates to unravel the eerie mystery-but doing so will come at a hefty price.Īnother was one of those series which had me waiting eagerly for Mondays to arrive and wishing that the weekend would end sooner. Engrossed in the curse that plagues his class, Kouichi sets out to discover its connection to his new friend. However, no one will share the full details of the grim event with Kouichi. The ominous rumors revolve around a former student of the class 3-3. Against their words of caution, Kouichi befriends Mei-soon learning of the sinister truth behind his friends' apprehension. But none of his classmates acknowledge her existence they warn him not to acquaint himself with things that do not exist. Among his new classmates, he is inexplicably drawn toward Mei Misaki-a reserved girl with an eyepatch whom he met in the hospital during his absence. It is pretty decent for something that is only four episodes, but I doubt I would come back to it at a later time.In class 3-3 of Yomiyama North Junior High, transfer student Kouichi Sakakibara makes his return after taking a sick leave for the first month of school. But going off of what I've watched, Corpse Party defiantly has its moments, and that is all great and exciting however, a majority of the time, it didn't hold my interest enough to praise it. I can't really say much about the story overall, since I don't know what happens in the next and final episode. The two humans that went insane are always the most fun the watch in these situations, but sadly, they were short lived. Tension between most characters is probably the second best part, especially when the crazies pop up. Another example was, the discussion between Yoshiki and Ayumi, on whether or not they would return back into the cursed school of Heavenly Host Elementary after escaping - which was all thanks the help of the ghost of Kanno Yuki. Which is the main reason why I wasn't as excited when Satoshi's younger sister, Yuka, died. The stronger part of this horror was probably the relationships between characters, rather than the people themselves. With all the wonderfully creative and awfully awesome ways they have died, I was far more pumped for their deaths, than having to sit and watch other react to it. There are some "star players" in the anime, that will most likely survive the whole adventure, but all the others were pretty forgettable - and that is probably why they got killed so easily. One of the biggest reasons I couldn't get into Corpse Party was probably the characters. ![]() With that said, there are parts where scenes are exciting enough for me to finished the episode - and being three-fourths of the way done, I might as well finish the series. However, I do enjoy these kinds of anime from time to time, but I wouldn't say Corpse Party is one of those times. The horror genre is one of those type of anime that I have a hard time judging how good it is, because I have a high tolerance for both gore and psychological torment. And on a small side note, as of writing this, there are only 3 of the 4 episodes in the OVA subbed, so I haven't finished it completely yet. I don't talk about horror anime often - mainly because there aren't that many, if any, coming out each season - but since Corpse Party popped up, I decided to give it a watch.
