There's going to be an OAD with the manga in 2011 and I heard there's going to be a dvd only 13th ep... depending on how much the dvds/bds will sell, a second series might be likely, however the manga has a good way to go, so it prolly won't happen for a while.

Pretty good run, couple of things out of order but still overall followed the manga (few bonuses). I greatly approve madhouse :up: . There will definitely be another season but it may be a while. Though it could be sooner than expected if they turn another 15-20 chapters into a season. Not only that but the author has picked it up again stably from what I've heard.

They did skip a bit of the teacher's friend's side story though and that was kinda disappointing. I think this will be on the extra dvd episode though, or atleast there is a good chance of it since I doubt they will add on to the ending and save that for next season.

I don't normally rate anime or anything but 8/10 :up:.

Now to save for bluray set :uhoh:

It's Madhouse, so it'll likely be a good one (read: 720p stuff as per norm). Hopefully they won't go the Q-TEC route for upscaling, but they didn't to it with Tatami Galaxy, so I doubt they would for HOTD.

Fucking perfect ending for 1st season :up: :up: :up:
The police woman at the end hints a lot for the next season,especially for those who have read the manga.

If the writer has restarted the manga normally,then I hope we'll soon get a new season as the existing chapters that are out can make up for almost 9-10 episodes.
Now let's start editing... :D

The ep 13/OAD (it's actually the same thing, my bad, there's no dvd extra) won't be out until 2011, along with a manga volume. Patience, my young padawan.

Spoiler :
In the manga it shows the people from the bus walking through town raggid after that happened but I don't remember it showing shidou. If you think about it the other people from the bus would just die without him leading them though so he's probably still alive. I'm guessing the author will bring him into it again later but who knows :uhoh:

With the lack of fanservice in the last few eps, I enjoyed the ending much more than the beginning of the show. Good times.
