Parasyte -the maxim-

Parasyte -the maxim-

In secret, alien parasites drift downwards toward Earth. Their directive: to take control of a human body and thrive in secret. When a parasite attempts to take over Shinji, an ordinary high school student, he stops it in his arm to save his mind. With the strange power of amorphous muscle, the curious parasite strikes an uneasy truce with Shinji: it will keep him alive and strong so that it may continue living, and will help protect him from the other parasites that might not take kindly to Shinji's mind still actively working. Can Shinji gain the courage to face the parasites and protect humanity? And would it even make a difference if he did?

If you liked watching Corpse Party, you'll enjoy watching Highschool of the Dead.  Both of these anime series are set in a school setting, one in high school, and the other in an elementary school. Along with having an abundance of violence and gore within, albeit Highschool of the Dead has it because survival is necessary, while Corpse Party tells the story of something altogether different.

Mystery and emotions are rampant in both series, as well as a sense of urgency being present in many scenes, as in Highschool of the Dead, it is unknown where the pandemic is coming from and in Corpse Party, it is unknown how the students have arrived in the old elementary school.

Lovers of Corpse Party should definitely check Highschool of the Dead out, as well as lovers of Highschool of the Dead enjoying Corpse Party!

Debutante Detective Corps

Both of these recs have boobs to spare, high school girls weilding giant guns, and plenty of explosions. Oh, and some ridiculous fight scenes for good measure. But wait, I hear you say, what do zonbies and detectives have in common? Not much, but the fact that these high schoolers know more survival tactics than your average high schooler really sells this recommendation. 

Prison School

Prison School

Hachimitsu Private Academy is anything but typical. With a female to male ratio of 200 to 1, the academy's five male students think they're in heaven – when really, they're about to enter hell! For after peeping on some of the busty, nubile ladies in the locker room, the gang is apprehended by the sadistic members of the Underground Student Council – a group determined to punish those who take part in illicit relationships on campus. Their punishment? To spend a month in prison on the school grounds, subject to the cruel whims of the club members! Now, the boys must pass the days performing mundane tasks and getting beaten by the dominatrix Meiko, all the while trying to view as many breasts and panties as possible!

These are two different animes in most aspects but it's the best on This list so far they are similar in the fact that they are both hard-core anime and "HOTD" also have a bit of ecchi but a compelling story and I highly recommend this you can trust me I'm only just a complete stranger

Btooom!

Btooom!

22-year-old Ryouta is an unemployed good-for-nothing who spends his days living at home and playing Btooom, a wildly popular online game that's sold over three million copies worldwide. Alongside other teammates, Ryouta battles it out with others using powerful bombs and sonar that can reveal hidden enemies, and his dedication has earned him the title of Japan's top player. But soon, Ryouta's pastime becomes a terrifying reality, as he and many others are dropped onto a tropical island and forced to play Btooom – but this time for real. Now, he and the rest must fight to the death by whatever means necessary, as the only way to win this deadly game is by killing seven of the other players.

Both anime put a lot of focus on how people can turn into evil monsters when faced with survival situations.  Both bring up more mature and realistic reactions to certain situations then you normally see in anime.  Both are very dark yet have some more innocent scenes. 

Rail Wars!

Rail Wars!

In present-day Japan, train fanatics and those looking for a lifetime of job security seek employment at Japanese National Railways - also known as JNR - the country's largest railway company. Naoto Takayama is one such train lover who aspires to become an engineer, but his on-the-job training places him on the security force instead. Alongside busty companions Aoi and Haruka, not to mention his well-endowed superiors at JNR, Naoto will do his best to keep the populace safe, whether he’s helping defuse a bombing in Tokyo Station, helping hand-deliver a life-or-death delivery in the midst of a storm, or escorting a famous prince to his destination!

If you liked Rail Wars! (Comedy-based) or Highschool of the Dead (Horror-based) then you'd like the other because both Action, Ecchi anime overly emphasize the ass and Huge Breasts of all the female characters' physiques.

No Game No Life

And like the legends tell, they're transported to another world where conflicts, peoples' lives and even country borders are decided by competitions and games. Always up for a challenge, the pair quickly take on the obstacles that come their way, whether it be restoring lowly humanity's good name compared with the other races or helping influence who will become the next king.

NGNL and HOTD are both fun ecchi action pack shows made by madhouse that unfortunately are probably never going get a second season.

We got a cast of mostly female characters with guns in both animes, lots of action sequences, and of course, tons of fanservice.
