Highschool of the Dead: Drifters of the Dead - Reviews

All I could hear was Kurapika moaning and kissing... not bad at all

OKAY BUT I FEEL LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE FORGOT THAT OVAS AREN'T NECCESSARILY CONNECTED TO THE STORY AND IS JUST A SIDE TRACK WHERE YOU GET TO ENJOY THE CHARACTERS PERSONALITIES IN A MORE MILD TONE FROM THE BLOODSHED AND VIOLENCE.

Story: Tits and butts- thats it. Of course, you can't expect much of a story from a stand alone OVA, but this was the most mindless OVA I've ever seen. The HOTD crew get stuck on a island in the middle of their scary zombie break out, and what do they do? Feel glad their safe? Try to get back to what little civilisation they were at? No, they get out the swimsuits (as if during an zombie apocalypse you'd happen to be carrying around micro-bikinis) and show some flesh. I suppose it was good to have some nice easy-going fun after the stress and action of the original HOTD, but this was just too much ecchi for me to stomach.

Animation: This was very good, but irritating at times. How many more bouncing JJ-cups must I be forced to watch as girls go waddling around sensually splashing each other in micro-bikinis? I felt so dirty for watching it, and just wanted to see some zombies start attacking them already- but this episode seemed completely devoid of zombies, what are the whole point of the anime.

Sound: This was pretty good, not much else to say about it. Nothing particularly bad or good.

Characters: The same clueless characters, but not much character interaction actually happenned, just a few giggles as people splashed each other in the sea and dirty laughter as people thought up dirty scenarios in their heads regarding the girls.

Overall: This OVA isn't really vital to the storyline of HOTD, if you don't like ecchi then I suggest you just skip it and wait to see if HOTD Season 2 is going to be released. Otherwise, if you do like ecchi, then this is most definitely the OVA of your dreams. Happy watching.

Here it is, more than after 6 months wait! The long awaited OVA of the hit popular series Highschool of the Dead! At the end of the series last episode, fans will rejoice because one OVA was set out to be released.

The story was just plain fanservice for the male fans. it features plenty of huge boobs in scandalously tiny swimsuits. It could simply be resumed at one beach party on a lonely island. It was just pure comical relief.

As always, the animation was just pure eye candy. Filled with details and consistency. Madhouse wins here. An advice: 1080p is the way to enjoy the series and the OVA. One of few series that I'd bother watching in such high quality.

The sound was good. The voice cast was exactly the same than the series. No surprise here.

And again, the characters were already exploited in the series. This OVA didn't add a touch to the characters. Still, it was good to see them again after more than half a year.

Overall, if you liked the Highschool of the Dead series , you'll probably like this one too. Created towards the male fandom, it can startle you a bit if you're a girl like me. I like it. Not much but not hated either.

Score:3.5/5. Ok, but the actual series was soooo much better.

Next! Returning to serious business with XXXHolic and Darker than Black
