| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Y'know, I thought Mars of Destruction was bad. But, at least it had the decency to last only 20 minutes. Good god, I can't come up with any redeeming qualities for Apocalypse Zero, other than the fact that it made me laugh at its ridiculousness and utter stupidity. But, I can't decide if I should give it a 1 or 2. I want to give it a 1, but it is watchable as hard as it is. |

| Apocalypse Zero is a fantastic post-apocalyptic fighting series. If you knew more about it than the brief snippet that is offered in the (TOO SHORT) anime, maybe you wouldn't be so thoughtlessly harsh on it. Than again, probably not. After-all, hardly anyone can just sit down and appreciate a good old cheesy fighting oriented anime show these days. Allot of modern anime viewers are the epitome of pretentious in that take things WAY too seriously. They can't just sit back and laugh their ass of at some silly exaggerated splatter-fest or something from time to time. Anyway, back on topic... this was a great episode, but it is NOT the end. Harara only seems defeated, the series is just like 1/5 through. |
| I agree that Apocalypse Zero could only be considered watchable because it's over-the-top corniness makes it hilarious at times. They can't have thought up a "double big tit bomb" attack and expected it to be taken seriously. Still, I think that the rest of the anime negates most of that benefit. The plot, for example, was literally laughable. The protagonists tranny brother kills their father and steals the power of Zero Form to join the monster EPA in killing all humans. Who the hell came up with that? I won't give it a 1/10 since that spot is reserved for the anime which sets the standard for awfulness. This anime may be bad but at least it's still not that bad. |
| People made it out to be the worst thing ever, but I thought it was fairly decent. I've certainly seen alot worse than this. Also, him slapping the girl off the counter = priceless. 6/10 |
| I guess I'm the only one who thought this was FREAKIN AWESOME! I really miss the masculine protagonist character, a lot of anime shows today have wimps and PABs as the heroes. This anime though says, "screw all those homosexuals, we are gonna strap our shit up and kick some ass!" I would give it a 10/10, but I've been giving them out too much lately and I heard it screws up the rating system, so I gave it an 8/10 |
| This was seriously entertaining. Bitch trying to seduce you. Slap her. Bitch cleaning your desk. "Oh my god, I guess I developed feelings for her." Classy. |
| LOL! Oh, wait... This isn't a parody? This is srs? LOLZ HARDER!!!! Random thought - if Apocalypse Zero and Mars of Destruction were popular, 26 ep tv series, then I bet they would've been classics, with thousands of mindfuck-loving fanboys. |
| Holy fucking... just... I cannot believe something so horrid and disgusting can exist. I really can not think of a single story that I have hated more in my life than this. There is no merit, no appeal-- it is just utter, revolting filth. The entire experience was an actual nightmare for me. Mental torture, even, and had it been a single minute longer I would have closed the damn episode, deleted it from hard drive, and forget I ever set eyes upon it. Wait, that's exactly what I did. Minus the forgetting part, because this abomination is going to haunt my memories. Right now I genuinely wish a score of zero was available on MAL. It does not even deserve a 1. |

| Crazy Dick Monsters: The Animation It's hard to tell if this wants to be a parody or taken seriously, a bit of both maybe. |
 |
| I actually quite liked this silly yet intense action, all in all it's a better ova than first thought! |
 |
| This one has Kouichi Yamadera as the MC, Megumi Ogata as the antagonist, an ensemble of some of the most talented voice actors of its era, and freaking Hironobu Kageyama sings the theme song; and yet most people have rated it an 1. And yeah, I know it is an endorsement of mediocrity in every other aspect (Still not 1/10 material, though, but rather a solid 5/10), but at least give it a bit of credit to where all of the budget obviously went to. |
| The part where the dad fights Harara... was that a third set of special armor he was wearing? |
| "There is no knowledge that is not power" - Ralph Waldo Emerson |
| I really disliked the first episode but liked this one a fair bit. I feel like the people that hate on this just don't get japanese style lewd humor. |
   |
| I wonder if Harara is truly dead, because he/she didn't open their eyes at the end? If he/she did then that was the weakest final battle ever! But overall I enjoyed it a lot, funny as hell. The show broke barriers that were strangely sexual, meaning the fanservice. That was a complete different fanservice and over the top too, but it was funny nevertheless. Kakugo was a good hero and that Armor Zero was badass. This was bad, but it is one of those guilty pleasures I will forever regret. 7/10. |

| Based watch, too bad we'll never see the rest adapted. 7/10 |
| "I will not die until I achieve something. Even though the ideal is high, I never give in. Therefore, I never die with regrets." |
| For how many people who seem to like this, I'm surprised it still has such a low score. Even shit like MD Geist, which I've seen absolutely nobody defend, has a score that's fairly higher. This show was cool, might read the manga. |
| The MC was a total chad. Slapping hoes for impurity and falling in love over a girl cleaning his desk! |
| Couple of questions from the first episode are answered here. If Harara fought him with his own armour, it should be easier to kill him but of course, that's not possible as we won't be able to see the tits with the armour on. Seems like the show got cancelled too. Was this conclusion made with that in consideration or it was intended like that from the beginning? I also see a lot of people argue about the low score here, is it because of some youtuber bandwagoning? |
| Horrible, they need to delete this anime. |

| this ova is actually great, it's hilarious how wrong about this ova so many people are and what you see in the comments here. |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| Cool anime with some far out ideas. The scene where Kakugo got into the suit for the first time was awesome -- like something David Cronenberg would come up with. |
