Your Most Violent Anime

Let's not list one or two specific violent scenes from any 17,000 episode series.

I'm referring to the overall 'package.'

Violent mech-wise or ripping limbs and 20-seconds of spurting blood type you ask?

Let's go with blood, limbs and guts. 😈

[not in any specific order]

1. Berserk
2. Ninja Scroll
3. Akira
4. Claymore
5. Basilisk

I refuse to put Elfen Lied on there because one intensely violent and gory opening scene jawdrop raised my expectations so high, that very little that followed really hit the mark. [sorry 'Elfen Lied' fans]

And others [ref:Naruto] pepper the series with too much silliness. [sorry 'Naruto' fans]

Bring it! devil

Hellsing is definitely on that list.

fist of the north star
ichi the killer
m d geist
guyver
berserk
tokyo babylon
devil man
cybernetic guardians
evangelion/death of evangelion

lots actually. just pick uf any anime directed towards the american audience from the 80s to the early 90s.

Very true. Completely slipped my mind.

Yes, but how? I don't live in the U.S. anymore so I don't get to walk into the stores and see which one is 'on sale.'

How else does one tell if it's geared towards the West a little too much without actually watching it?

well, those were the ones that usually made it to american/europena shores in those decades and were usually the ones which were properly translated and/or had american releases. plus characters in em were more whiter/square jawed and had a greater affinity to beeing badass/big/foulmouthed.wearing distinctly american clothing. as opposed to japanese ideals. this is just a generalisation but it holds true for many animes.

Yea Guts really wore american type clothing in berserk 🙄

New Getter Robo. A friend of mine that lives off violent anime and thinks Helsing is a work of genius couldn't watch it after two episodes.

Pokemon.

Oh ho ho ho! If you're spot on, Christmas'll be a little early for me thanks to Galvaclause! 💃

Plus I've never heard of it. Before I go hunting, and perhaps a lame question; is the actual name 'New Getter Robo,' or are you referring to a new series of 'Getter Robo?' 😮

In terms of bloody quantity, Neon Genesis Evangelion is the best.

Its called "New Getter Robo" like what Galvaclaw said its the name of the newer series that they did.

Thanks.

I change my mind about Pokemon.

Digimon is much worse.

I'm a bit of a newbie so....

Evangelion/ Death of Evangelion/ Neon Genesis Evangelion...

Are they all the same? 😕

The most violent anime that I have seen is Hellsing Ultimate. The top 3 most violent manga that I have read are Gantz, Berserk, and Battle Royale, and Hellsing doesn't even compare to those in terms of gore. But what surprises me, is that there is apparently an anime called Genocyber, which is even far worse than any of the anime which I have listed. Now that really has to be insane, if it is indeed true 😕 .

KITE

KITE....huh. Never heard of it. Please tell me it doesn't have silly humour where one of the charcters [ref: Gantz] has to have an erection to get his powers. 😆

Absolutely, absolutely...I believe I vomited watching the gore in those. They were horrifying moments...still going to therapy! 😘

-----------this is where it gets bad---------

his prized assassin, a young female doesn't only get praised for her missions she also gets...sexually abused by him. this I think is the first controversial anime ever made and for a time was impossible to find uncensored for obvious reasons, MANGA entertainment had to market this film to adults only.

this movie also influenced a lot of other entertainment from many mediums; KILL BILL copied heavily from this movie, a NO DOUBT video copied a fight scene etc.

if you ever saw the gun that shoots time-delay, explosive air foils, thats from KITE.

but most violent maybe fist of the north star
