i think the word overrated is overrated.

I think this is the best show ever. not Anime show. i mean the THE BEST SHOW. and i haven't watched it yet.

I'd like to see a show top the charts... without getting aired.

goodness... random stuff over here... XP

To all those butthurt people saying 'OMG STFU HATERZ THESE THREADS SHOULD BE DELETED IF YOU DON"T LIKE IT DONT WATCH!!!'
...wtf if you don't like these threads don't read them. You don't even have to post in them..
It's called stopping the hate, yo. A purposeful hate thread created in the series' own section. Mind as well start a hate thread about MAL on MAL's own general discussion. Oh boy, let's all ignore that, too.


Just sayin, if you wanna stop the hate, something along the lines of 'I dont think this is overated because..'. But if ur going on here with 'troll blabla pointless blabla im butthurt etc it makes u worse than the op imo. Heard of the expression 'feeding the troll' cos thats exactly what they want.

I loved the first ep btw but probably will wait for bluray, SD upscale is killing me

Stop criticizing it, there's only 3 episodes out.

The reason everyone likes this anime is because it's about ZOMBIES! One of the first anime to have zombies in it! Another reason is because, of course, it's ecchi, and a lot of people like ecchi because humans are naturally perverted [or so some of them are] ANOTHER reason it's so popular is because the animation is very well done. AND the last reason, is because most of us watchers are also reading the manga. The manga is very good and is getting quite intense.

So lets see: The theme is good, the art is beautiful, and it's following the manga exactly. The characters develop more over time as well, so give it some time. Although some of the characters are over the top and annoying at times, other than that this anime is good.

And of course you're going to say it's "overrated" because someone ALWAYS says that about popular anime. Death note, for example, is constantly being called "overrated".

Although, im pretty angry because now that it's become an anime it's even MORE popular than before. And of course, popularity also comes with it's share of haters.

If only the zombies ended up winning the battle for the earth, I could end up giving this show a score higher than 5 for 'average'.
I thought the zombie has already won the battle against human? and Now the human are fighting back against zombie.

I'm with you OP. Can't wait 'til the hype dies down. This is why I don't watch things while they air anymore. You can't escape the fanboys who spew everywhere when they see something cool.


You don't watch something just because of the fanbase? Seriously, that's so wrong. It's not like you have to interact with those fangirls/fanboys.. and anyway, you watch an anime because YOU enjoy it - you shouldn't even care if it is popular or not. Usually, if something appeals to a lot of people => popular => overrated.
But that doesn't make it "bad"..

You can watch anime however you feel like it regardless of its enjoyability. That's just people's preference. It may seem unreasonable to you but thats how some people work. For example, I can't watch anime if its more than 100 episodes unless if its episodic. And I can't watch an anime if a female is the main character. Call me sexist but thats my preference. After all, its just anime.

I was VERY, VERY dissapointed with the first 2 episodes but I think the series started to pick up after the third.

But I still can't believe how little gore they put into this. I was expecting guts, spines being torn out, brains exploding but what I got was just turning the "camera" around and showing a splash everytime a zombie got killed... no details, no brainss. So dissapointing...

Especially for a zombie nerd like me :D

It doesn't seem censored, there was a lot of ecchi stuff, lots of red blood but no guts, no brains, no internal organs flowing around.

But I still hope you are right and the DVD version will be gorier because that's what I expect from a zombie movie/anime.

No, that's what you'd get from a B-Moive, not an anime.

That's too bad because the HotD manga does have guts, brains and internal organs flowing around. The anime should have them too.
Signature? I ain't got no signature! I don't need no signature! I don't have to show you any stinkin' signature!

Blah, Blah, Blah, another person who doesn't like the popularity of an anime so he/she feels the need to start an "OVERRATED" discussion.

Agree with pacing, thought the first episode was fair, second put me off with the direction of it all, picked up allot third and fourth.

It's much more interesting to see how the general populace is reacting to the crisis, rather than the same zombie massacre scenes over and over.

No, I never said I don't watch it. I just wait to watch it. That way I don't have to interact with the fickle, dull-witted spammers who flock to it when it's popular.

I'm sorry, I get disgusted seeing people fag over characters that I like. Would you like watching your wife/husband having an orgy with a bunch of disgusting fanboys?

That's what it's like.


It's nothing like that... How can you even compare those two things? Seeing posts on my monitor on MAL which I don't want to read is eaily ignored by not fucking reading them. Where as walking in on my partener cheating on me woudl result in a fuck load of blood shed and is not easily ignored. The two things are nothing alike and I Really see no correlation. As for you not watching things while they air. It's your loss... You could just not read the posts as even after the series has finished airing the posts wil still be there and you won't have changed anything. You're only delaying your own enjoyment and leaving yourself open to spoilers. Have fun with that. On another note. This series is currently airing, what the fuck are you doing here? You like spoilers?

'fickle, dull-witted spammers who flock to it when it's popular'
That'd be you =/ As you don't watch series whilst they're airing you therefore can't actually bring anything to the table regarding this anime.

The anime is getting more hype than I think it deserves but it's definately a good anime I haven't given it a 10 but I could do if it keeps going the way it is. The violence is definately good :)

Is this anime overrated, or is the rating system massively screwed up?

I think that's the actual question here.
