| ooks .. the original version didn't change a lot based on the censored . |
 |
| In my experience, blood has always been red. Hmmmm... Anyways, while it wasn't bad, it wasn't great either. Makoto dying was epic and Sekai dying was a bonus. Everyones a winner in this instance! :D It gets a 6 from me. |
 |
| I was saying that just the blood's colour changed . It gets a 6 from me too . |
| |
| Oh? That was a meat cleaver...so she can get her hands on it in...butcheries.:) |
 |
| Katsura and Sekai were without doubt crazy! |
| |
Hokotoro said: Where did Katsura get her machete from, lol? Not if it was crazy but where a teenager can get a sword like that in an hour, mb two? In the game we see where she gets it from. On those balcony like stairways that japanese houses often have, in front of Makotos flat is a box with all kinds of saws and such. Ok, now don't ask me WHY it is there, but there Kotonoha gets in in the game. |
 |
| I personally, didn't like how indecisive the main male lead was, but other than that, the rest was a pretty enjoyable series. Came into it knowing the ending was suppose to be pretty crazy, and I was not only shocked, but glad to see something different in this dysfunctional "harem" anime. It makes me wonder how awesome, and different, Shuffle! could have been if there was some serious violence towards the end. |
   |
| This anime was really disturbing...at first they make you think its just another regular and ''inocent'' harem, but as it makes its progress you can see how the main characters attitude towards women and other peoples feelings drastically change, and the end...well i was really shocked, i could have expected that from katsura, but not from Sekai, but i realized they were both nuts and poor Makoto deserved it all. Oh and i never though Sekai could be so manipulative, she was never pregnant. Hell i'll give this anime a 7-9, because when you really think about in a psicological way, you'll realize how much this anime shows you about japanese culture and the human mind. |

If any of the main characters are on the boat, there better be a damn iceberg nearby for a Titanic ending. SpudUK said: In my experience, blood has always been red. Hmmmm...

I would say the anime depicts the true worst case scenarios that can happen in real life I really don't see how people can see school days as true...even as a worse case scenario. Although perhaps i'm just being naive. Maybe not in school, but in the university I have seen similar cases of unfaithful and promiscuous men (even cheating with girls and BOYS at the same time), and a character like Makoto I don't think is unrealistic... By the way, I loved the ending, I knew (for spoilers) that Kotonoha went crazy and killed someone, but it took me by surprise that Sekai killed Makoto. But I can't understand why people tooks too seriously the characters and hates Makoto so badly, I thinks it's good that sometimes the protagonist isn't the typical hero...and he got what he deserves in the end. I give it 8/10 (overall) |

The ending: viewers seems to be victorious and what they want become true .First lover ( till death do them apart). |

It was also the girls fault for sleeping with him in the first place .He was an ass but don't put all the blame on him |
| Most epic ending I've ever seen. This ending completely redeemed the show's shitty episodes up to this point. I didn't think Sekai would go that far, but man did she do it in the best possible way. "Oh I have a text from Saionji." Text reads multiple lines of nothing and then goodbye. "Huh?" Turn around STAB! Bam Just great, crazy ending with the yacht too. Kotonoha really went off the deep end if you know what I mean. |

jwmpine said: I dont care what anyone says that was like funny as crap haha. When she went to the rooftop and went to open the bag I'm like "don't turn your back on the pycho chick shes going to stab u xD" But in all seriousness I guess this ending about the episode when katsura was looking at the knifes in her kitchen, I was like okay shes going to kill him than herself. I was off with the whole she killing him and than herself but was pretty close if I had to say =)... The only thing that freaked me out about the ending would have to be the boat...Shes holding his head obviously thats not a very healthy relationship there xD Exactly Wat I Was Thinking.. hahahaha So Wat He Said. |
| I saw all 12 eps today. WOHHO I laughed when he was brutally killed! I was thinking of giving this show a 10, but it really lacked someone to put Makoto in place. I could picture a figure like Kamina (from Gurren Lagann) walking over to him and beat him to death saying "YOU FUCKING BASTARD YOU'RE WRONG!" But since nobody really did much except throwing mad words at him, I suffered through those parts of the show. Therefore I give 9. |
| It's funny..because by the end of the show, I come to the conclusion, that there is not a single good person on this anime, at all. Eveybody is so heartless and selfish. Then I said "Jesus, why doesn't someone just kill this guy?!" .....You get what you wish? XD The show, 6.9/10 The Demented Ending, 9.9/10. The only reason it isn't a 10/10, is because I watched this at 5 in the mornin..and now I can't really eat. |
| The anime, and story itself was absolute crap, but the ending was brilliant and the only good thing about it. Several times Makoto realized what he was doing was doing was wrong, and felt guilty because of it, then goes and makes it worse by sleeping with yet another girl. He's a fool and deserved what he got. Anime: 6 Ending: 10 |
 |
| I... am... shocked... But i hated the entire serie with a 9/10, because is a strong ending, I never had seen this before in an anime. |
 |
| Did Makoto touch Sekai's bewbs before he died or was it just my imagination xO I thought, Omg, this guy is seriously a maniac, even after being stabbed he still knows where to touch. I don't wanna be a hentai~ |
| "Holy shit this show was a total trainwreck. It was 11 saddest excuses of anime episodes I have ever watched in my entire life. But it had a bloodbath in the last episode so I guess 10/10 lol." Even though the last episode did released my hate towards every character in this series in form of loud, manic laughter, the only thing that deserves a compliment in the whole show is the pretty song in this episode. |
| I knew it , it was going to end by someone or 2 dead I have to admit I didn't think about what kotonoha is up to after finding the bloodbath of Makoto seriously It blow my mind I like the end " As I suspected there is no one inside you" What a funny way to know xD AT the end I will to say " I Want to be Makoto"s girlfriend " :) |

| I just realized something: episodes 11 and 12 are pretty much a giant middle finger in the viewer's face considering what Setsuna made Makato promise in episode 10 (more like begged him -insert tearful facial expression here- for it but you get the drift) that she'd let him do "anything" to her as long as he agreed to stay with Sekai. Then low and behold he runs around with a few other girls in 11 and finally reroutes back to Kotonoha in the end. Although I wasn't surprised, it just struck me with a "How low can you go, you SOB [excuse the character bash vent, but I couldn't stop myself] of a protaginist ?" feeling. |

TQ said: I just realized something: episodes 11 and 12 are pretty much a giant middle finger in the viewer's face... Really? I thought it went more like this. tomu said: also idk why people are complaining bout that plot it was very good (Next is from another thread, I'm too lazy to post same shit two times.) TQ said: Holy hell would psychological themes combined with a gradually darkening plot be something that'd interest me to no bounds. There's just one problem.You'd only like School Days if psychological themes combined with a gradually darkening plot interests you. - Scene with character talking to him/herself in front of black background doesn't make anime psychological. - Teenage boy wanting to make out with everything that even barely moves doesn't make it psychological. - Girls making a contest who could tie relationship with biggest douche on the planet doesn't make it psychological. Go watch some Cat Soup. And talking about how good it was written in general, that's of course subjective matter of what kind of story you want to follow. But to make it look like a psychological masterpiece, you need damn lot of imagination. EDIT: I'm really sorry, I have a terrible headache and a fever. Tomorrow I'll be ashamed how I started flaming here and remove this shit and apologize to everybody. But that's tomorrow. |

Okay, maybe I went overboard a bit on this, but I wasn't talking about a general plot progression or the anime as a whole. It's simply my little slip-in concerning the side story of Setsuna and Makato between episodes 8-10 (read the ENTIRE post).

Generalization coming back here: School Days is basically a twisted Soap Opera that explores the dark side to relationships (including what might possibly happen when 2 female characters are pushed over the edge...). Everything that goes on usually has some sort of mental or more often emotional basis. Psychological Masterpiece ? Nah. But it does a decent job nevertheless. Also, as for your headache/fever, it's fine. You just weren't thinking properly at the time. |
co_flame said: If it sells, it works. |
TQ said: (read the ENTIRE post). Oh, I read it alright. The idea just popped into my head when you were implying that the only 2 episodes of the show that has even little bit of merit is supposed to show middle finger to the audience. Of course you were right about that since that might be something along those lines that the writer was trying to do. To me (as it was for many others), last episodes were more like massive release of hatred that every damn character has developed to me since episode one. Hence, the comic. It was funny yesterday.

Everything that goes on usually has some sort of mental or more often emotional basis. Psychological Masterpiece ? Nah. But it does a decent job nevertheless. I really find this hard to swallow. I think almost anything could be called psychological with this logic. Of course there are psychological aspects involved when girl is in love with a person that doesn't respond to her feelings. But Naruto being unable to let go of Sasuke has psychological aspects too. You can really pick any series you find and make a similar sentence out of it. Come to think of it, I didn't realize before that it really doesn't say anywhere that this anime is considered "psychological". I guess I wasted minutes of my life yet again. |

You can really pick any series you find and make a similar sentence out of it. Can I break it down now ? It isn't an implication of a few concepts here and there that make something "psychological" in my opinion. The main difference between labeling any series as such is basically whether or not it's a core focus. Naruto is just your normal adventure hack-n-slash with those tidbits thrown in. School Days, in stark contrast, basically revolves around the "psychological" aspect of character relationships and how one character's words and actions links up with your big picture. |

TQ said: It isn't an implication of a few concepts here and there that make something "psychological" in my opinion. The main difference between labeling any series as such is basically whether or not it's a core focus. Yes. TQ said: Naruto tells you a story about a boy who has been rejected by his village since he was little. Unable to find anyone to share his thoughts and feelings, he wallowed in self pity, blaming himself for hard time he has to go through. Finally he could find himself some friends, but he wasn't quite sure what the meaning of true friendship is all about. He fights with this boy Sasuke, being not quite sure what to think about one person who isn't afraid to talk to him. Later on, this boy runs away and gains dark powers and seems to lose every bit of personality and love he once had, but Naruto, unable to give up this one true friend he ever had decides to bring his dear friend back to his own world even by force if necessary. Even after gaining lots of new friends he just can't leave Sasuke alone to wallow in the same kind of solitude Naruto had to suffer years ago.Naruto is just your normal adventure hack-n-slash with those tidbits thrown in. School Days, in stark contrast, basically revolves around the "psychological" aspect of character relationships and how one character's words and actions links up with your big picture. School Days tells you a story about Makoto, boy who wants to touch girl's boobs. While understanding that School Days has some psychological aspects, the writer of this message doesn't really see how anything links to the big picture since all the characters are doing is changing reasons to be angry, while Makoto is just changing the person whose boobs he is giving a massage. It doesn't work even in boring, everyday romance psychology-aspect since these girls are the most irrational beigns I've encountered in my days watching anime. You say Naruto is "your normal adventure hack-n-slash" and I fully agree, but it still has it's own psychological core which is painted over with all the ninjafighting and other silly stuff. And quite frankly, I really think show like Naruto has much more psychology behind it than School Days ever had. And it's not like they don't let the psychology evolve over the time, either. Of course it isn't psychological show, I'm just saying that lots of boys' generic fighting anime and other series really isn't falling behind on School Days' "psychological core". So yeah, I can go on for weeks and I'm absolutely sure that you can, too. Since there really isn't any meter to measure the quantity of psychological waves in anime, I suggest not to keep going (this conversation is not going to end in any satisfying way). To me, School Days seemed to be a bit saltier harem show. You may see this differently, but as I said there really is no right or wrong on this one. |
| Oh my fucking god this was insane... I mean sure I wanted that little prick dead as much as anyone else... but I think it went a bit too close and personal... and yeah crimes of passion do tend to be that way... still doesn't mean it ain't shocking though... In the end I really don't know what to think about this series, I really want to like it, it definitely kept my interest, it played with the harem genre in ways I've never seen any other anime play before, but I still can't stop thinking that this whole thing was forced, that the characters though acting quite humanly at times they just as often acted like caricatures... especially the secondary cast which was brought too much into the limelight to be inconspicuous and too little to be believable... if the series had focused on the main 3 perhaps plus Katou and that rapist guy then maybe it would have been better... but having Makoto experience the axe effect and bang half the school(damnit Setsuna) was a bit too much IMO... especialy the way it happened... many other devices used for drama felt like that too, like that voyeurism shit those 3 bitches got away with... Well anyway, whats for sure is that, for better or worse, I'm not going to forget this one... |
| This show scared the hell out of me...honestly.. I thought it was some nice romantic anime like Clannad.. the art was even similar! Never trusting my insticts again...never..never.. I will have nightmares for the REST of my life..god.. I hate Makoto. ( >_____< ) " |
| Makoto did get what was coming to him. But, I think the ending was pretty good myself. Although I wouldn't mind seeing the aftermath in an OAV. Like that would ever happen. I felt so sorry for both the main girls though. His actions cost both of them their sanity. |

bluetear said: This show broke my heart so many times, Y_Y i've never actually hated someone as much as i hated makoto. just make a decision and stick with it man... He did make a decision, he decided he was going to bang every girl he knew |
| No, he didn't even do that. He just always did what was most convenient to him at a given moment. He noticed the problems he caused, but to straighten them out would have been uncomfortable, right? |

I totally loved the start, twas all happy lala - and the ending, oh fudge, the ending. |
cxxx26 said: I'm normally very calm person, don't even remember when was last time I punched anybody. This anime made me want to punch everything in range(nothing valuable was destroyed btw) from the pure hate to Makoto. He's such an idiot. Good thing he died in such way, although longer suffering would be prefered. But I really felt sorry for Kotonoha, she'd done nothing to deserve such fate, first love, denial that they aren't really together, such depression and when she finally got out of it she got beloved one murdered... It was just sad. Too sad. Overall, I still ended up loving this series. Woah - there actually is someone thinking the same about the series as me :O > And your profile says 80,7% compatibility, haha, nice! :D |
| damn the ending was funny |
