School Days 1 – 4: The calm before the bloody, bloody storm

If you were one of the rejects who was reading my how to get a girlfriend article for actual advice and would like some further instruction, watch this anime. It will show you exactly how not to act and what not to do and EXACTLY how to inspire feelings of disgust and loathing in all females around you.

I trekked through the first three episodes without knowing anything about the game. And then my boyfriend broke it to me that, “School Days is notorious for its BAD END endings,” after which he gave some examples of these BAD ENDs.

Before he told me all that? I thought School Days was a damn shitty, QUALITY show with a male protagonist (Makoto) that I hated with the passion of a million Kaoru Yamazakis.

Now? I still think this show is mad QUALITY and that the story sucks, but I’m fucking pumped. However! If I don’t see bloodbaths soon, I have to say, Makoto is enough of a piece of shit to make me want to drop this series like a hot potato.


As soon as it was obvious that Kotonoha wanted to see Generic Zombie Movie 2, I knew that she was the girl for me. lol jk brb fbi

Seriously, after watching the first episode… I didn’t even want to continue watching. But, I did. I’d already downloaded the first three eps, so I figured it’d be a waste to just delete them. In the second episode, after the well-deserved roundhouse-slap-to-the-face that Kotonoha deals Makoto after his really fucking inappropriately timed kiss attempt, I was thinking, “:D Huh, okay! Well, I’ll keep watching if this moron gets what’s coming to him!” So, right, episode three wasn’t so baaaad… dumb as hell, but my thirst for blood grew stronger and with that, I CONTINUED ON TO EPISODE FOUR.

Episode four… well, Sekai… yeah… she was out for Makoto’s cock. And she got it. Now that they’ve already done the nasty on the school roof, maybe the number of semen-crusted tissues in his wastebasket will decrease!


And if you think I’m just being perverted, LOOK BELOW:


All that’s missing from this picture? A bottle of lotion.

Seriously, if he just wants to get laid, why does he have a girlfriend? He can just get a hooker… or even a girl at school (read: SEKAI)… whatever, Japanese schoolgirls and prostitutes are basically the same thing anyway. But I guess he wants a girlfriend AND a slut. What makes him think that he’s man enough for two women, anyway? Ah, the male ego….

I hope Kotonoha (Makoto’s girlfriend) starts standing up for herself. Sex is a very personal, special thing to a lot of people–especially girls–and being pressured into it is outright rape. Sure, I think Kotonoha is a dumb, dull, blank girl whose juicy tits can’t even save her sub-par personality, but that doesn’t mean that she deserves to be the victim of assault, sexual or otherwise.

And Sekai, god, at first, I felt sorry for her. I thought, “Eh… I guess she really loves Makoto, even if she’s gearing up to be The Other Woman.” But, fuck! She set him up with Kotonoha! I have no sympathy for her. If she’s lonely and she loves him, that’s just too damn bad because she didn’t have to push him into the arms of another girl. She should own up and deal with the consequences, that skank. Plus, she wanted him to… “practice” sex with her? Um… yeah… SKANK. SKANK SKANK SKANK. She might’ve been then coerced into going all the way with him, but you don’t ask someone to practice having sex with you if that’s not what you had in mind.

What it comes down to? Makoto sucks. I can tell that shit is about to go DOWN, and I hope Makoto gets his ass kicked HARDCORE.

P.S.: If you’d like to see some awesome Makoto-hating, please go to Crusader’s entry at THAT Animeblog. The awesome fury made me shiver.

    makoto is an absolute perv. hehehehe, hey nice review eh? =D am waiting for ep. 5 on this.

    Hm, I better get started on watching School Days then. Played the game one time, didn´t get any bad ends and ended up with Makoto alone, which I hope he does in the show as well.

    But this really made me want to see it. Don´t know why. So I can get yet another male lead to hate or because I´m intrested in how they practice sex…

    The future will tell.

    This sounds hillariously bad. I was originally going to skip it – the only galge-adaption I know of that actually has ‘bad ends’ animated is Higurashi – but you’ve convinced me.

    Now to wait for my download quota to reset so I can get the episodes without suddenly having my connection downgraded a thousand fold. :(

    I don’t really hate Makoto, since I know alot worse guys IRL. The show itself is fantastic, and I find it pretty realistic. The characters are intresting and the main protagonist is an asshole womanizer which makes the show more intresting.

    The ending I wish to be is both girls decide to dump him, death is a pretty harsh punishment for cheating dont you think? I bet noone can say that they havn’t thought about another man/woman on their relationship, Makoto just takes this to the next level.

    @rollchan: Yeah, speaking of which, where IS episode 5? I would’ve thought it’d be out by now, augh.

    @manga: HAHA!!! Well~ I won’t spoil it for you, but it’s not too terribly interesting~

    @Negs: Download quota? That’s awful! D8… I don’t even know if I have a download quota. I hope one day my internet doesn’t just… give out… OHSHI–

    @Mixu: I’ve known worse guys than Makoto, IRL. Which is probably why I don’t know them anymore, haha! Hm, I can’t say that I have rave reviews for the show, and the characters seem a bit wooden to me. For realism (not situational realism, but emotional realism) I’ll just stick with Saishuu Heiki Kanojo.

    Agreed, I think death probably isn’t the best punishment… I think his family jewels should be chopped off IFYOUKNOWWHATI’MSAYIN’. By the way, I can honestly say that I have never thought of having sex with anyone else while in a relationship. Just because everyone does it doesn’t make it right.

    Yeah, download quotas. Australian broadband is a joke. I get 40gb peak and 40gb off peak, and that’s the highest (and most expensive) plan available. Were I to sign up with the same ISP now it would be 20/40, even. Costs a bundle, and if I go over my paltry ~6000kpbs downstream will suddenly become 64kbps. At least I’m not with my old ISP – they used to count your upstream use against the quota too. :(

    But it reset an hour ago so time to download. ^____________^

    Yo, geek girls, please wake up. This is NORMAL, and he is acting cool. I mean when I was 17 I was going with out with 2 girls that were best friends with each other.
    He will be one of the Cool guys when he grown up, the lover boy! Not some fuckin romantic geek that nose bleeds on image of a boobs.
    I just think that you all need reality check, he is normal boy, its just that you live in a fuckin dream about boys being faithful (especially teens).
    I, soon 28, and I never ever missed a chance, never. This way I can proudly say that I had sex with more than 50 girls! (Even twins once !!!)
    And I never ever paid for sex, never!
    So I bet most of you here like Gay boys, or gay girls, but you can see a REAL man even if he pulls out his shmoke and beet you on the forehead with it!

    @Karas-kun: LOL

    P.S.: TITS OR GTFO.

    Oh god, I just have to reply after reading two posts above yours.

    LOL.

  10. 11 manga August 12, 2007 at 3:21 pm

    @Karas-kun: wow, a living Makoto.
    Hope you get the same experience he does in the game…

    proud of cheating? Sorry, can´t understand that.

  11. 12 Marmot August 12, 2007 at 3:30 pm

    @manga: (he’s just trolling, don’t take the bait)
