Corpse Party: Tortured Souls

Corpse Party Tortured Souls is a visceral feast for horror enthusiasts and a rattling excursion through the minds of tortured souls grappling with their darkest fears. It succeeds in invoking feelings of dread, empathy, and contemplation, making it much more than just a horror film. While it may not be without its flaws, the emotional resonance it delivers is undeniable; it's a reflection of human frailty set against a brutal backdrop of supernatural horror. For anyone willing to wander into Kisaragi Academy's twisted corridors, be prepared: both your heart and mind might bear the scars long after the credits roll. For this one anime I'm having this 8/10.

I herd of this online and decided at 4 episodes it would be a nice quick watch. At the beginning, I really disliked the show. It had scenes of fan service, incredibly gruesome and violent images, and a few unanswered questions.

Although I disliked the beginning, the show did build interesting characters and draw me in more and more each episode. If I had watched episode 1- 2 alone I likely would have given this a 5-6, but by the end I felt it was a good watch (assuming you don't have a weak stomach).

The resolve of this show, how it wrapped up, was really what sold me on whether I liked or disliked this show. Overall I give it 7 because all though I wasn't fond of a few scenes, I felt the characters, twists and turns, and ending made it worth the watch.

Corpse Party is literally like watching a horror movie. There you are, trapped. Can't even shout, can't even cry, the dangers are coming by. When you realize that death is coming before you, screams are shouted out, but you won't be heard. But that's just the beginning. For once, you're trapped, Corpse Party will take you to a place where your life will never ever be the same again. (that is if and only if you escape alive)

This is an excellent horror anime. The plot is very strong and with every episode becomes more and more profound and disturbing. The characters are all very interesting and relateable, each in their own strange way. There is ample gore and graphic imagery, with a few of the most imaginative/shocking deaths I've witnessed in a series. One of its shortcomings could be argued to be its duration (only four episodes) but at the same time, it stays fresh, non repetitive and easy to watch in a single sitting. There are a couple of minor plot holes and a few ideas that are toyed with but not fully developed but they don't take a significant tole on the quality of the anime. Warning: not for the squeamish

REPIR THAT FREAKING TRIPOD. THAT WAS ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY.
