Gantz and Elfen Leid are probably the two most disturbing, overly-violent series I've seen. Afro Samurai came close to that, I suppose.

Not a fan of gore for the sake of it, so I tend to avoid those sort of series.

The Narutaru Anime is only half of the Manga story. It gets much, much worse. So if anyone has any Narutaru stuff that I'm after please PM me and let me know where I can get it from.

I bought Super Manga Blast right up to the final episode, I then managed to buy volume 10 of Narutaru in a Tokyo Bookshop (and got a rough translation off the internet). Have volume 11 & 12 in Japanese with bad translations, can't work out quite what the hell is happening, need a good scanlation, as most people do. God this series is so frustrating!

Well, it was one sick anime, I've tried to block it out, but I'm pretty sure it really did happen. It was disturbing. Very disturbing.

Yeah, and to Haggis' comment, I dare not read the manga >.> When I told someone about my disliking of Narutaru, she too said that the manga was so much worse D:


You would never have guessed that it was that kind of anime though. The starting theme is so happy/jolly/cute and the start of the anime was perfectly normal. T____T 4 Y THEY DO THAT?! I feel sorry for anybody who let kids watch it, thinking it was a kids show, because that's what I thought it had been. ;__;

I just finnished Narutaru , there's no gore , they use implication instead of showing it. I think Narutaru is very good for a Psychological/Horror anime for it discuss so many problems still exist in society and the sanity of those teens

Sure a lot of the time they didn't show the actual gruesomeness, but you have to remember that I watched this when I was like... 10 >.>

I grabbed this straight off wikipedia:

"The anime broadcast was in 2003 on the Japanese television station Kids Station." <_<;;

"The manga, especially the original Japanese versions, contains gruesome material and images particularly towards its later volumes. Despite the young main characters, cute aliens, and initial look of a shōjo or magical girl series, the story quickly transforms into one filled with very graphic sexual and violent themes. The English-language [1] and German-language [2] versions of the manga have some edited scenes; entire pages of content were removed from the English-language version of the manga."

Why did it have to be so misleading? If it was that bad, why would they broadcast it on a Kid's channel?

But yeah, regardless it all depends on peoples' tastes on anime series. It just so happened to deter me, but that doesn't mean that other people can't enjoy the series. u_u;

Elfen Lied and Negim magiter magi**I don't know how to spell it** but oh god was elfen Lied bloody crazy I first saw Nu/lucy and thought Oh wow what a cute girl with the whole ears and pink hair*love pink* and then I first see this crazy bloody gore scene and she was butt naked!!

Also Negima almost every Volume some one got naked or got they're clothes blown of, or end up in inapporate positions with each other .

but over all I enjoyed both series, and wished Elfen lied had more epsoides

That girl in the that pic is really beautiful I'm so cheaking out that anime**total weakness to cute/pretty things**

Ok, never try NaruTaru...>.> I've recently started Clannad and Sola, both of which are very good...Hmm...Gantz sounded ok, and maybe (some day xD) I will try NaruTaru.

You know whats a fun way to prove to your friends that Anime isn't for children? Show them Akira...xD Also, if anyone is wondering why I loved Elfen Lied so much, it is because it presents moral issues (what defines us as humans?) as well as being a sad, romantic tale. Thus, my perfect anime trump card for my liking =P.

Elfen Lied is my 4th. Kanon 2006=1st , Monster=2nd , Higurashi =3rd HAHA

Havent watched Clannad yet , but keep dling it. Gotta wait for it to finish.And I think all Key's stories are sad.
