After seeing some people recommend School Days I decided to set some time away and watch it. I seen all types of comments about it but I didn't really read much into, having seen it now I see what it gets hype/recommended sometimes.

Let me start off by saying I typically finish anime even if I have to come back to it a week or two later. I always finish a series, no matter how bad it is period.

After halfway through this series I was like WTF is going on here.
Then I was hooked like a bad car accident and kept trying to figure out where this was going then I finally think I know whats going down and bam. Didn't see that coming...



This is exactly why you can't have a normal Male MC in a Harem, well he was hornier than average I'd say. This is the type of shit that happens, hence why most MC are dense as oak for this reason IMO.

I need a nice Romance Comedy now, I feel pretty depressed after finishing this. Typically only real dramatic or tragic shows bother me a little. This show on the other hand, damn its get it all in there....

Anything good out there??? Hell comedy in general...

hmm... do you need harem element or not?

- non harem:
> nodame cantaible, lovely complex, honey and clover, ore monogatari, bokura wa minna kawaisou, (more heartwarming romance with some comedy)
> gekkan shoujo, school rumble, arakawa under bridge. (comedy with some romance)
- semi harem
> toradora, sakurasou, skip beat, yamada-kun to 7 nin no majo, (more romance with some comedy)
> ouran kouko host club, seto no hanayome, baka to test, ranma 1/2 (engaging funny with some romance)
- harem
> kami nomi, nisekoi, to love ru, sora no otoshimono (more on harem side)
> hataraku wa mousama, hayate no gotoku, kono suba(more on comedy side)
back then i watch school days after reading uwakoi which make school days look much better. LMAO.... at least makoto is not such a whimpy useless annoying little bitch....

I agree hes not a wimpy bitch but hes definitely a Man whore. Even I would hope I had better control over myself though if I was him. He did some awful stuff to the girls he supposedly cared about.

Thanks for the Reqs. Thankfully I remembered I had some show that are currently airing to catch up on. Keep me from drinking bleach

I mean you could probably have a realistic MC with some better self control, I think 75% of any guys in his situation would have handled it better. But this is ultimately what happens with a shitty-male MC and girls throwing themselves at him. Kinda hard not to expect this result.

I doubt normal boys would be so straightforward or daring to go all the way straight away. Although I must admit there are such types, certain short clips show that Itou is embarrassed or at least evidently affected when one of the girls almost spot his guilty pleasures (porn stash iirc). Therefore I would feel that it would be unrealistic for him to be so straightforward, unless maybe he had the wrong idea about relationships.

However, I still agree with Katsura at the end and if not for Sekai supposedly "seducing" him (during their first practice session), Itou might not have gotten the idea that all girls are so easy about these kinds of itimate exchanges. Had Sekai shown more resistance toward Itou's perverted attempts, Itou could have learnt how girls actually feel about such intimate exchanges and be more reserved/shy or at least feel guilty even if another girl throws herself at him and not turn into as much of a dickhead.

I agree with this, makes sense to me. He got the notion of easy pickings because she made it too easy for him.

Argh I feel so weird inside. This anime messed me up so bad. Its like, this is so wrong, what have I just seen, but I just can't stop myself. I guess its the compelling force of my belief that it will only get better since its already at its worst but it just doesn't. Its just so....disturbing.

That is Schools days in a nutshell. You start off routing for the guy and by the end your like that's probably what you deserve-well out side of hurting Katsura. That's the biggest disappointment in the end for me, even though she's got mental health issues.

It's been almost a year since I watched this show and I still remember that disturbing piano background sound.

I also finally broke down and watched this. This was awesome. It was like Uwakoi (actually, probably uwakoi is like school days)

the MC is not normal and is still a coward, just in a different way. This is the only show, other than Berserk, where I've been like, this dude needs to die. Just a horrible dirtbag prick ever since he was too cowardly to break up with the first girl, and then it just got worse and worse. by episode 6 or 7, I was like this guy is irredeemable

this show though. goddamn son. goddamn

That's what really ticked me off early on(only got worse as the show went on). I mean give me a break just call it quits you giant pussy.



Uwakoi, guess I'll have to investigate that too.

Do toradora. I watched this right after school days and it worked wonders. None of the disturbing feeling is left lingering. I guess I just needed a story where everything goes well.
