Story // 7
While I would love to give the story a higher rating, it pales in contrast to the original story. Well, stories. After all, this is an OVA series based off the Corpse Party games. From start to finish, I think the story was a little better than average. It kept me in my seat, (bed), and I watched all of it in a single day. If you're looking for a better than average story, this is the way to go.
Art // 7
Me, being the impatient person I am, was too lazy to dig through the vast Internet to find a high quality version of Corpse Party. So, I watched the series on DailyMotion and the quality was... 360 pixels. This may or may not affect the art score. I, personally, thought the art style fit the show nicely. It set the "creepy" mood and it kept the art style consistently.
Sound // 10
I LOVED the sound on this anime. It was one of the most memorable things about it for me, other than the gore. The bone-chilling screams, the background music, the opening, just all of it, fit the series like a glove. The sound effects really helped me adore the series to its full potential.
Character // 8
The only reason I didn't give character a higher rating was because the anime didn't have quite enough episodes to really describe each of the characters. After all, there were only four, and they had to kill off pretty much every character by the end of the series. Still, I think the characters were decently constructed and their stories were told decently.
Enjoyment // 10
I enjoyed this anime as much as I possibly could. It had everything I adored in it after all. Suspense, gore effect, horror, and the teeniest splash of romance. Suuuuuper glad Corpse Party didn't have extravagant ecchi. It would have ruined the mood.
Overall // 9
All in all, this anime was fantastic. The story, sound, art, characters, they all pulled you in. After I watched this, I was forced to look behind me every now and then, a little paranoid after the creep factor this anime gave me.
