The anime basically combines a lot of the most fucked up shit from the VN, none of the bad endings in the VN really compare to the anime.
Well, theres that one ending where
Kotonoha gets pushed in front of a train

Considering it now. So I understand the anime takes one of the few...but without spoiling anything, is there abad endingsending in the VN? Because...wow. I can't imagine there is.worse
So I now basically understand why this is sprung on people as a slice of life school comedy without mention of what happens later. Jesus. And the boat thing.
I watched it cuz I thought it was just a slice of life and school romance. Even the OP was subtle. Boy... *sigh*....

The most disturbing stuff in the VN involves Taisuke, especially a scene where Makoto and Hikari masturbate while watching Taisuke rape Kotonoha.
I will never stop being incredibly envious of people who got to experience School Days without being spoiled beforehand.

What? Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with these authors?
I am simultaneously intrigued and repulsed. Truly, I have been taught the secrets to levitation.
I wasn't into anime at the time but the message board chatter about the ending made me just checkout the ending.
If you want to know...Yeah, I'm kind of considering trying the game now just to see how that scene goes down.
If you want to know...
Makoto and Hikari stumble upon Taisuke fucking Kotonoha in a room at school. Kotonoha is saying no and it's clear that she's being forced. You then get the option to stay and watch and then finger Hikari while watching.

Sonichu... is a part of the Nasuverse!?
For my sanity, i shall pretend you are reading the novel.
and that's why it's nowhere near as good nor memorableLet's talk about From Up On Poppy Hill and how amazing and peaceful and not-crazy-ass-bullshit that is instead. Because it's all those things. And not School Days.
Super Space Brothers 19
Man, that second half of the episode really struck a chord; I'm sure everyone knows what it feels like to finally find a group of peers that share a otherwise unloved hobby/passion of yours. Excellent stuff.
I can understand that. I try to talk about Tetris The Grand Master and I always have to give a long explanation just so people can parse what I want to say but they still don't really understand why it's a big deal. I suppose meeting somebody who is otherwise would make me go "OMG I'M UNDERSTOOD" too.
I may end up regretting fixing that avatar. It's like weaponizing something to be used against me. lol
..... I don't get the joke.
If you ever watch Hyouka, you'll get it.
Thanks for the heads up homegirl/boy, but I'm really too tired too find that right now. Even I won't really respond to everything written on here about those dudes, if I'm too tired/busy/drunk to post or if I have nothing interesting to respond to someone's thoughts with. Which is 100% of the time really, since I'm just regurgitating things I've said before a million times.
what the hell am i reading
Hyouka Episode 16
argh why isn't it next week already
Saint Seiya Omega 18
One of the top tier episodes of Omega so far. Was really disappointed in Sonia though. She actually is the second leading female character on the anime, before this episode but now, well definitely on Yunas level. (The Athena with them is the best female character)
I do hate the industry as a whole in it's current state :/
Autogames for babbys that pander to the player's vanity. Bad.
Yes, it's actually a surprisingly competent movie directed by Goro. Hard to believe, I know!Is From Up on Poppy hill at least more interesting than Tales of Earthsea? Because holy shit Earthsea made me want to watch paint dry instead.
Hellsing Ultimate: The Dawn I-II
Hey, it's the anime adaptation of that prequel series Hirano will never finish! I sure do hope you like your dismembered limbs really poorly motion tweened as you're gonna see alotta that in the second part!! I don't think there's gonna be a third one due to the lack of a to be continued but the hilariously cheesy "Seig Heil!" at the end with the bad CG doors slamming shut was a pretty fitting way to end it if so.

And Whisper of the Heart's my second favourite (first being Porco Rosso and I still need to see the highly praised Only Yesterday) but I don't see how that makes From Up On Poppy Hill any less forgettable, a decent Ghibli work but nothing more.Says you. My favourite Ghibli film is Whispers of the Heart.
For as long as there are people that have yet to experience School Days, then School Days itself will never be forgotten.If you're memorable for shock value you're in a shitty low-tier grade of memory. Chestbursters only work once!
Speaking of dead eyes. These still popup in my nightmares occasionally.
I find the (alleged) VN scene whereThe most disturbing stuff in the VN involves Taisuke, especially a scene where Makoto and Hikari masturbate while watching Taisuke rape Kotonoha.
I watched The Prisoner weekly as a kid with my dad, completely unspoiled. That ending still makes my brain itch just thinking about it.Like an internet version of the reactions to the initial airing of Patrick McGoohan's finale for The Prisoner I'd imagine. Crazy-yet-brilliant tv endings and resultant pissed off fans have been around for a long time.

Just quoting myself because I found the two pairs of results.

Amazingly 9/10 are still in the top ten even though only ~50% of the voters were AnimeGAF participants. In general, the only thing that changed were the individual series rankings within the top ten.
You just have a fetish for girls who never reveal the top half of their face.
Is Irisu in the new Hyouka episode?
We are not a single entity. We are made up of many individual voices and opinions.
Speaking of dead eyes. These still popup in my nightmares occasionally.
I know! That expression of her's really got to me. The way she looks like she's still smiling like he's only joking and her squished up cheeks but the way that she's tearing up in pain and confusion. Combined with Ai Kayano's "Oni-chan...?" where her voice sort of cracks in sadness and has that questioning confused tone just emphasized things.
I wish the internet, as it is now, was around for the ending of EVA. The reactions for the initial airing must have been absolutely astounding.
