So... it's shameless fanservice a la Ikki Tossen or Rosario to Vampire?

I don't know what those are. I've watched one episode of Bleech and these, that's my anime history.

Well, it's done! checked it all, too much fanservice and some "ero" content, beyond my established policies. The z-poc story is awesome, but the suggestive content and some explicit violence is too much for a kid of 13 (at least in my book), but the history is great. I recommend it for "young adults" or late teens.

lol, I normally don't watch anime that is flooded with big boobed high school girls and a ton of "fan service" but I couldn't pass up a zombie anime. It's pretty cool despite the ridiculous fan service; close up shots of girls butts, cleavage, etc.

I was wondering if anyone else had caught this anime series. As far as I know, there's only like one short season.

I already saw it all (there is a thread about the manga on the "Books" sub-forum and there we talked about the anime also), It's 12 episodes and how you rate it depends on your preferences or tolerance. There is some explicit violence and no explicit sex, but there is A LOT of fanservice, and some "ero" stuff that goes beyond fanservice, but doesn't reach "ecchi" levels (but almost). Besides that, the story is pretty good, but it's just an animated season of an ongoing printed series, so it is open ended. If you are not underage (I just saw it previous to allow my kids to watch it and then said NO!), and are not offended by blatant, shameless fanservice, you will find it a nice Z-story

I liked it. Had to take a shower afterwards, but I liked it.

HotD is a great series, up to a point. When the fanservice kick in, then the series goes downhill. The concept is great, but the fanservice just ruins it alittle.

I see the fanservice as adding something funny. And sometimes I don't mind when Rei or Saeko get a little... sexual. It's an amazing story and I wouldn't say the fanservice ruined it. It just may have taken away on the seriousness at times. You should read the comics if you wanna see some serious sexuality. They don't censor it at all.
