I have finally found an image worthy to follow up Mevvrynne's masterful post:
 

Rin is best because cat love is true love.

I just thought of it, but it'd be nice sometimes if we could undo our likes and dislikes. For example, one of these days I was about to like a post but a slip of hand made me unlike it instead.
This is just a suggestion, but I think it'd be nice if we could do that.
I know you guys are probably to busy to make it possible, but I still felt like saying this. I think it'd make the forums better, if only a bit.

That's it~

(Just posting to let y'all know that images now resize in spoiler tags!)

Neon Genesis Evangelion: The world lies in the hands of a pussy boy, an emo girl, and a bitchy German.

Code Geass: I command you!

Gundam 00: We thought "Celestial Being" sounded cool in English, and wanted an excuse to say it as much as possible.

Gundam Seed Destiny: I'll never die.

The world god only knows: Reality is SHIIIT!
Gundam Seed: Surviving close deaths like a boss.
Free!(not that I watch it): Let's swim and be gay! (Jkjk)

We could actually make a game out of this. Describe an anime in one sentence, other people have to guess what it is. Might be too hard though, we'd have to stick to popular anime.

K-On! - Moe.

To Aru Majutsu no Index: There's no problem that can't be solved by punching it in the face.
To Aru Kagaku no Railgun: it's shockingly good.

95% of Ecchi Shows: Why don't you just watch hentai?

Kodomo no Jikan: I know this looks like lolicon porn, but trust me, it's actually pretty good.

For overrated? FLCL. It's grossly overrated and it makes me mad how people think it to be one of the greatest anime ever made. It felt like it was being crazy just to be crazy and people like it because it pretends to be deep and meaningful when its really just a 6 episode penis joke.

Angel Beats! is another anime I find to be very overrated. It very nearly isn't even good but is saved by the comedy. The problem I had with it is that it couldn't decide what kind of show it wanted to be and the story didn't feel like it had any structure. It just kind of wanders all over the place, never really settling in and letting you get into the story.

For underrated, Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru. It's a very tame SoL for a Shaft anime, but the last few episodes make it a very, very interesting watch as we see the impact people make on others, without them even realizing it. The final episodes were very well done.

My second underrated anime would be one that is airing right now. Gatchaman Crowds. It's quickly become one of my favorite anime. It has a very ambitious story, fun characters, and the psuedo- retro feel of the show adds a lot of atmosphere. I don't see nearly enough hype for it.

Post apocalyptic loli game with lot of H scenes.

Protagonist starting alone with his younger sister. After few dealings and running away from bandits, he finds himself in a nice abandoned village, where the bandits don't dare to follow, almost seeming like different world, untouched by the otherwise violent society living in the post apocalyptic world.
After a while, he finds that the village is not really abandoned, there are still 3 little girls remaining, the last survivors of a deadly virus.
Will he be able to find a cure?
(spoiler alert: he will, his semen is the cure! AND THE FUN BEGINS).

Oh, we're supposed to post pictures of anime girls?
I was just going to post a picture of myself.
Well I think this fanart of Yuri from Harvest Moon A New Beginning is super cute.

Nah its fine, its your ideas you believe and that is a good thing.
The series you mentioned as overrated are the ones that have like some catchy thing about them which makes them popular, ultra cute henneko with awesome OP, catchy OP video and song in nyaruko, cute and awesome OP in yuru yuri. So they are very popular and maybe that is what you saw as overrated (lot of youtube vids etc)
Those are the ones I saw and I loved them all, they are good, I loved them but they had some cons as well. Together actually with To Love Ru, in henneko and nyaruko the MC is so indecisive that it sometimes hurt me and I was yelling at the screen "JUST HAVE SEX WITH THE GIRLS ALREADY" but I still loved the shows and that's how I rate it.

The show can be not as good and I enjoy it at that time so much that I just think its near masterpiece, if I watched it in different mood, I might not like it. It can be same with VN, I might fall in love with some girl there (and marry her or Mare-y her I could say ) and I will forgive it some things I didn't like (like I already said once in VN discussion, I didn't like Asuho's personality in her route in Hoshimemo, yet I still rated the game 10 as the amount of good stuff just overweighted the not so good stuff and I found my biggest love in the world there).

So overall enjoyment you get from something depends on many variables which can change over time. What I don't get is how can someone watch something he doesn't like, finish it and then rate it low and bash it, if you don't like something, just drop it, don't finish it and maybe some day you will have mood for it and enjoy it as much.
I actually know that To Love Ru season 1 was really perfect fit at that exact time for me, as I was just in the mood for that specific kind of ecchi and if I watched it some other time, I would probably not enjoy it so much to love it that much.

IMO, VN is like a visualization of a novel(yeah, it is visual novel). Rather than just reading a thick book with endless wall of texts, going through dialogues with voices, as well as the BGM and the excellent art of the VN enhances your interest more, not to mention it kept you on going, instead of a "sleep-tool" when reading a dictionary-thick of novel.
To me, it's like making you enjoy the story of the novel more in a lot of ways.

I wrote this for another forum as part of a series where I introduce new games that many of the members have never heard of in the hopes of raising awareness of the game and hopefully getting them into new genres or series they may have had no interest in before. Please feel free to give me feedback and constructive criticism. I'm always looking to improve my writing. Thanks for reading!


Corpse Party began as a humble indie RPG Maker survival horror game. It was first released for PC in 1996, before getting a remake titled Corpse Party: Blood Covered in 2008. In 2010, Corpse Party was re-released onto the PSP as Corpse Party: Blood Covered Repeated Fear. It quickly gained a cult following of gamers drawn to the incredible sound, dark, disturbing story, and of course, horrific death scenes. When XSeed brought it to America and Europe in 2011, western gamers finally got a taste of the twisted game. Demand was high enough for XSeed to bring over the sequel/side story, Corpse Party: Book of Shadows earlier this year as well.

Corpse Party follows a group of students attending Kisaragi Academy who are having a little farewell gathering for one of their classmates who is moving away. The students are telling ghost stories when they try a harmless ritual for fun that will supposedly allow them to remain friends forever.






Friends forever?


After preforming the ritual, a strange earthquake takes place and the students find themselves separated inside a strange rundown school called Heavenly Host Elementary School. The school houses various spirits and ghosts whom are hostile to the students, along with signs of grisly murders, piles of bones, and disturbing messages. The students attempt to meet back up and find a way out, only to find that there is no way out, and they are slowly losing their grip on sanity.





What is so interesting about Corpse Party is how it manages to take sprite based graphics, and turn it into something creepy. While the visuals may not inspire fear, the color usage gives the player a sense of despair. But the visuals are assisted in large part thanks to sound and gameplay.






This take place before a characters gropes particular body parts of the corpse... I'm not kidding.


On their own, the visuals can give a sense of creepiness, but cannot pull it off. With the 3D stereo sound, the player feels immersed despite the tiny PSP screen. I, more than once, found myself looking around myself when someone would be speaking. I thought at one point, someone was literally behind me whispering. The sound design is that good. As you hear the screams of a child dying, you will feel chills tingling down your back. You will get goosebumps from ghosts whispering in your mind. You will feel like flies are surrounding you. It's simply stunning what the developers managed to do with the sound.

As you navigate the halls of Heavenly Host, you will find various objects and notes that may or may not help you to escape. Death lurks everywhere in Corpse Party. Reading a note may end up killing you later. Uncovering a statue may anger a spirit who will brutally murder you. Picking a wrong dialogue choice, or forgetting to read a note could end in a Wrong End. Death is everywhere. Some players complained about this, but it adds so much to the suspense of the game. You need to explore to find a way out, but exploring can easily kill you. It certainly keeps the player on the edge of his seat. As for the Wrong Ends...





There are plenty of graphic ways to die, and the game will spare no expense describing them to you. No one is immune either. The youngest character is an elementary school student, and she too can die in many graphic ways. And if you think the game has horrible death scenes, the comics are much, much worse. (Hidden in spoiler tag, it's gruesome)




Soon, the characters begin to piece together what happened to them, and why the school is trying to kill them. Speaking of characters, the cast is very balanced. Some characters keep their cool, while others break down. That being said, some characters are very, very, sick people. One characters gets a high from seeing death, especially the death of children. Another character, as I've stated gropes, and plays with the entrails of corpses while photographing them. On the flip side, we have some noble characters who realize their short comings, or try to help others, but they are overshadowed by the twisted reality that they are in.

Plenty of plot twists take place throughout the game and the ending, no matter what, is dark. Let that sink in.



There is no happy ending


If you want your stories and games to end on a happy note, do not play this game. The story in Corpse Party is a wonderfully twisted tale that pulls no punches. For the final two chapters, I was simply glued to my PSP. The story hooks you in, and drags you into a bloody, gore filled mess.





Corpse Party is one of the more memorable games I have played. Using incredible sound and bloody deaths, you will be hard pressed to make it out of Heavenly Host alive. With the upcoming sequel, Corpse Party: Blood Drive, as well as an anime series, it seems fans of the game will have many more death filled trips into the cursed halls of Heavenly Host.
