Granted, medical accuracy would have made that segment a lot more disturbing and that would be terrible in a horror piece. Furthermore, it has nothing but blood even when an area gets stabbed where other fluids really should be coming out of the wound. It uses that ridiculous convention of having the blood spurt everywhere as though it was connected to a high pressure hose of some kind. The biggest issue, in this case, is with the gore in the first scene. The art is mostly decent, albeit kind of standard. Unless, possibly, you're rooting for the main cast to die horribly in which case the bath scene will almost certainly contribute to that. If anything, watching the OVA will just destroy your investment rather than enhance it. These are the types of one-dimensional twits you would expect to see in a terrible comedic anime like Baka to Test rather than in a work of horror where you're supposed to get invested in them and their survival. You would almost think the characters had been written by someone who has never had any friends and lives as an isolated NEET but thinks they understand people because they've seen a lot of bad comedies. We only get a couple minutes with each pair of characters and what we get of them is so absurdly stilted and divorced from reality that the chance of connecting with any of them on any level approaches zero. However, there is a major problem with it on that level and it comes down to one aspect. How exactly do these four snippets of mundane conversation that feature completely stilted dialogue add anything to the "happy" Corpse Party world of child murder? Now, the purpose is probably to give the audience a basic peek at the premise and introduce the characters. However, there's still the major underlying question of what purpose the thing actually serves.

So, it is very much intended for fans of the game series and not for people like me who are only vaguely aware that the games exist. Now, in all fairness this was bundled with a limited edition release of one of the spin-off games. So, the narrative goes from child murder into scenes of various characters we know nothing about talking about the culture festival and hunky boys.
And then it switches to two different students talking about the same basic thing. After that the scene switches to two new characters talking on the phone about the upcoming culture festival. Actually, as someone who has been to a few girls' slumber parties, I can confirm that only one of these is likely to happen and it's not the one you might wish it was. They grope each other and talk about hunky boys. Because that's what girls do when they have sleepovers. After that we switch to a girl groping her friend in various ways while questioning her about a guy. Which is, incidentally, the most horrific scene in the entire thing. After a minute or two of that our scene shifts to a guy in the bath when his naked sister walks in on him and starts insisting on washing him. You know, because building up to that kind of thing is over-rated. Our tale opens with a group of children being murdered by an androgynous figure with long, dark hair. Let's take a look at the first one, Corpse Party: Missing Footage, and hope it's better than the other adaptation we've seen this month or at least as hilarious in The series has had four manga and two OVA adaptations, both OVAs being handled by Asread. Most of the games were developed by Team GrisGris, with 5pb joining them after the second released game. The follow up titles didn't start seeing release until over a decade later in 2008.

The style doesn't exist on premade wigs so you will have to style the wig by hand.Corpse Party is a survival horror video game series Oddly enough, the first one was made with the RPG maker software and came out in 1996. She also has long brown hair which she wears with bangs and loops behind her ears. Her uniform collar is blue with a yellow tie that she decorates with a brooch. Seiko wears a pretty typical school uniform: White undershirt with a blue line across the chest (that you will have to paint on), tan v-neck pullover sweater, blue pleated skirt, and white shoes. Unless you are going to a horror convention or an adults-only convention, it is probably best to opt for this version as Seiko's appearance after her murder can be very upsetting for children and other convention attendees. She is voiced by Miki Honda and Satomi Arai in the video games, and played by Youko Kita in the live-action movie, all of whom capture the sweet, sad nature of Seiko's character.įor this cosplay I opted to go with Seiko's appearance while alive. But it does help her save the girl she loves from meeting the same heartbreaking fate. Seiko Shinohara is your average sweet - if silly - school girl.
