I'm just rofl about how ironic the story from what we know to be very contrary to what we see... lookscan be deceiving

The reactions when everyone finds out that this isn't the standard happy-go-lucky slice-of-life series they were expecting should be absolutely delicious (to borrow NorthernFallout's word of choice). I can't wait

In a way, Gakkou feels more realistic. Despite the moe, the girls have learned to survive quite capably and they carefully weigh each decision for the risks versus rewards when they need to leave for supplies and such.

That said, when the story goes full on horror, it's quite good at it. If HotD was an action movie, Gakkou is more psychological horror.

Also, please refrain from talking about the manga too much here. We do have a manga thread for this title, if people want to talk and be spoiled there.

If this series is handled correctly it could be a smashing success, I think.

As others have said it has a powerful capacity to evoke emotions, partly because the genres it touches upon are in two vastly different corners of the spectrum.

Also - a reminder once again to not let ourselves get too close to the territory of hinting and spoilers and such and to head to the manga thread for such discussions. Not that anyone has done so, but ... just a reminder.

I have an appropriate reaction at seeing people who watch this series expecting that what they see is what they get:

yuki's voice actor surely remind me the character voice of chino in gochiusa. Looking at their personality, i believe it would be fit.

I'm surprised that they released "ecchi" scans for this series. Manga does have some pages where characters are in their underwear but those are very rare. I hope this is not a bad sign (ok, maybe not bad) that they will put a lot fanservices in anime version.

Do remember that magazine art don't always accurately reflect the content of the series they portray. For example, Girls Und Panzer's magazine art many times feature fanservice, and yet the series itself keeps it the fanservice minimal to the point of nonexistence.

MrTerrorist · 2015-07-04, 08:00

Oh such a misleading OP.

Nachtwandler · 2015-07-04, 08:30

The all will be trolled if they actually make SoL anime

Marina2 · 2015-07-04, 09:16

Maybe the first ep. will be like a prequel to the manga story , considering that we have some anime original characters in that OP.

Dark Paladin X · 2015-07-04, 17:12

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention this on Thursday, but Sentai Filmworks has Gakkou Gurashi.

Part of me wonders if the studio is enjoying themselves too much with this series.

E_I · 2015-07-06, 16:45

Like the OP, but boy is it misleading. I love the way the bouncing thing bounces off Yuri's boobs.

Myssa Rei · 2015-07-06, 19:27

Oh Haruhi, that OP. So much trolling. SO SO MUCH.
