So I looked this up on a different site. Within the first two minutes, the girl tried to kill a zombie while her boobs jiggled (and failed, oh how cute, a woman trying to fight). Then she fell down so we could see a shot of her panties as she screamed "KYAAAAA" just in time to be rescued.

Fuck. This. Show. I don't even. Fuck.

Yeah, kinda why I gave up on the manga.

Turned into less about fighting Zombies and more about being a harem anime with Zombies.

There's plenty of legitimate complaints you could levy against High School of the Dead without making up misogyny.

It is my firm hope that one day, people will be intelligent enough to figure out the difference between "sex sells" and actual sexism.

No.45623

I'd be fine with putting up with the constant jiggling and panty shots if she weren't a A) constantly shrieking B) constantly helpless C) too much of an overemotional dumb cunt to make hard choices. If she weren't a girl you'd agree that she's a horrible human being and a waste of screen time. It isn't sexist because it's sexy, it's sexist because her only purpose is to be a life support system for her tits and get rescued.

Wow people don't always respond well to a zombie apocalypse, big fucking shock.

She gets better at killing zombies later on after the horrers had a chance to become more familier.

Not every girl in a zombie apocalypse can be Zoey. Sometimes they have to get over the fact that their classmates are trying to claw open their torsos and eat their organs.

Fine then, I was wrong. With only the first episode to judge, though, it's pretty hard to deny that it LOOKS like a sexist pile of shit.

I stopped reading this when it hit the chapter where the teacher was just encouraging kids to have orgies on the bus.

I just gave the anime a shot hoping it'd be a bit more bearable on that front, but it's just that turned up to 11. I can't even sort of watch this show seriously when every twelve seconds is just a close up of some random girl's panties as someone narrates about zombies.

The Teacher brainwashes the kids with zealotry that sex and hedonism will keep them safe from the Zombie horde.

Okay, are there any ass-kicking females that are more than, ya know, ass? I really only would think it's sexist if all the bitches are little more than helpless eye-candy.

Kinda depends on what you mean, all the main females are lots of ass and tits, but once they get used to zombies everywhere they start kicking ass like any other main character

Haven't read the series in a while but I remember that the girls can kick a serious helping of zombie ass

Every main female character except for the nurse and the token loli. And they're excused since the Nurse is...well...a medic, and thus useful in an apocalypse, and the loli is like eight, so obviously she's not going to be killing zombies by the truckload.

And if memory serves, the nurse lives with a (female) special forces member, so just by knowing her they get tons more armament than they would've otherwise.


But, flawed, premature accusations of sexism aside. Is anyone else amazed at how pretty much the entire main cast of Gurren Lagaan found there way into this?

Watched it this morning and loved it. The character designs are bland and the fanservice is horribly out of place, but goddamn the does the zombie action ever deliver.

Definitely going to keep up with this one.

Alright then. Doesn't seem all that sexist to me. I think the other anon just has had bad experiences involving crazy fanservicey nerds. Can't really blame 'em, Japan's gender equality thing is... Still kinda wonky.

Yeah, that's pretty much the only reason I'm probably going to keep up with it. It's interesting to me to see all the zombie stuff in the background being animated instead of just extras wandering about aimlessly.

Like I said, the random fanservice just kind of makes it all super campy is all.

I like my cheesecake girls non-annoying.

Fan service is always acceptable, and sometimes nice. But combine that with overbearing emotional weakness, drama-queen behavior and uselessness and I will just zone out. They don't have to be *annoying* to boot - that just detracts from the attractive power of their attributes, no?

zomg people might not react well to thier entire mundane world going straight to a hell almost biblical!
really do you not understand human beings?

the human factor and them learning to live in this new world is part of the plot.
and someone who can impale a person in the heart and lift them off the ground is hardly useless, she just need to get over the shock and learn that somehow 'they' are now real and requires different tactics.

It's not that her behavior is implausible.

Yeah, all of this. Unless you through in some quick as fuck character development, I will be like "blaaaargh I really hope I won't be a bitch in a zombie apocalypse too"

>>45831
But dude, I realize her behavior isn't impossible, it's just really troublesome for her and everyone around her. Why doesn't see just MAN THE FUCK UP quickly as possible? I'd think I'd see it pretty quick in a show like this.

If the conversion rate is one episode per chapter then Rei essentially mans the fuck up next ep. Is that fast enough for you guys?

Because if not, then maybe you should just stop watching shows in general.

No.45842
The way I always see it, in situations like this you have three options:

Lead, Follow or get out of the way.

Anything else is a Fuck up and a Liability and should be discarded at the soonest juncture.

This anime series is only going to be like 12 episodes or something right? obviously that's not the whole series so how they going to leave off on it?
