I like how Sixpack Stud had more plot armor than the main character

The only problem with this is when the kid said he thinks the creatures are blind. His evidence: because they look like a monster from one of his video games. Yeah no...luckily he was right but he could have very easily been wrong as well so listening to him would be a terrible idea

i actually love the subversion of the cryo sleep trope where you thought it has been months or decades but its only been 2 days. it really makes you think wtf happened and makes the entire situation terrifying

Six pack stud could do all of this by himself, all the others were dead weight and was slowing him down. Respect to Six pack stud

I would have just assumed the woman falling in the beginning was just a stone statue that fell from a plane.

an anime version of cinema summary? my day has been beyond made.

I was expecting six pack stud to fall into the asshole stereotype since he had a very big advantage on surviving but he truly ended up being a chad in the end

There actually was a (now rare) condition known colloquially as "The statue disease" that caused essentially a comatose state or at least paralysis.. The victims skin and muscle etc.. eventually hardened into a seemingly petrified hard substance becoming LIVING. FUCKING. STATUES. Sometimes they'd petrified their face and suffocate slowly, it was horrible. Worst part is, they NEVER figured out what caused it! It stopped happening and the doctors were so terrified yet happy to be rid of it that they swept it under the rug. Been nearly 100 years since the epidemic in the 1920s I believe.

Thing is a woman DID come back from being frozen solid. The alcohol in her body acted like antifreeze. Cryogenics we see normally involves injecting something into the body that negates the formation of ice crystals while simultaneously ensuring the body stays in a form of low power mode until the awakening process happens

"It's only been 2 days" that to me was the plot twist xD

26:47 Judging by the burn marks and broken horn piece, that is still the same monster that got burned, and have rocks fall on it.

Wait, wait wait... Did he just say he'd throw the medic in front of a monster? As in the medical professional who could probably keep us alive if we were injured by the monsters that are still in the building or even the falling debris collapsing building itself?

Waking up to that after only a few days is so much worse than it being decades later.

There absolutely was a way to save the memory card from lighting on fire. The hospital clothes we're wearing have edges finished with a wide fold stitched down, as is common for hospital clothing. When catching breath right before getting cornered by the monster (that got fended off with molotovs), all one'd need to do is bite a hole into the channel formed by the fabric fold, then slip the card in there and squish the garment a bit to get it away from the hole. Then, after we trust "sixpack stud" again, give it to him to store in one of his frontpack pockets, and after he dies, we can take it back. As for removing the chip from neck, gun is indeed the stupidest method. It's only been two days since it was implanted, so it shouldn't have scarred yet. It isn't rigged to explode, we aren't in a Suicide Squad, nor is anyone tracking it at the moment, since Alice is dead and the whole place is kinda turned into a trippy-ass vine dragon at the moment, so just scratch the entry wound open, and pry the thing out of you the same way it got into you.

Great video, I just wanted to clarify one thing: The MC is NOT Shizuku pretending to be Kasumi, but rather, an 'alternative' of the Medusa virus created by Shizuku and the real Shizuku is the big dragon monster.

"I would kill them" is by far not the best way to survive in the situation. Most likely, distrust in you would build up and everyone would be more likely to throw you at the monsters instead.

"If you were put under cryogenic sleep due to a monstrous disease, what would you do?" Me: "keep sleeping😪"

When they first met the mutated bats it seemed like the bats liked sensing fear so when they felt someone's fear level at a high rate they eat them might be a possible reasoning

Six Pack Stud is single-handedly one of the best characters in anime

Why would we throw the medical professional out infront of a monster, she is literally one of the two people who is actually valuable the other being the military guy everybody else can be bait

The muscle you pointed to was the sternocleidomastoid. The platysma is the thinner muscle that pops out when you flex your neck.

When I first saw this movie, I was quite confused about the whole story. I think it's because the animation distracted me. Glad you guys made this video to clear up the plot...Oh, and showing how to survive if this actually happened. Keep it up!

27:00 The girl patched up Tall guy and has looked after the kid. I’d say she’s proven her worth. She’s the medic of the team

I love the Sixpack Stud was taking the role of Prince charming from Sleeping Beauty. He shutdown the Alice system like the Maleficent and he got the reverse kiss at the end by Kasumi

wow they killed a ki- NOPE somehow he survives a impossible plane crash

I watched this for the first time when i was around 10, and i remember i cried at the end, thank you for reminding me of this amazing movie, im def gonna rewatch it again!

Shizuku's traumatizing memory is one of humans defense mechanism(unconscious mind) called repression which repressed unwanted or traumatizing memory from the conscious mind back to the unconscious mind.

Of course the kid has epic gamer skills, those always work in the apocalypse.

So, what I would have done in the opening scene is I would have found those who didn't immediately rush to the door group all of us together, and hopefully keep us from getting mauled to death. The reason being is that the people who don immediately head for the lift in that chaotic panic are the ones who are smart or experienced enough to keep their heads on their shoulders thus are going to be our best allies and significantly increase our odds of survival.

Didn't the real Kazumi die and Shizuku, while under the influence of Medusa, created a new Kazumi just as she created the mosters? I may remember it wrong but I don't think it was Shizuku assuming the identity of Kazumi, rather there is a new Kazumi and the one with thorns was Shizuku.

I think its quite hard to really think what to do at the start as you suddenly get overrun by vampire bats when you wake up

32:35 She isn't Shizuku that's the alternate of Kazumi. Shizuku was the new host of medusa (the vine one), she created an alternate of Kazumi because Kazumi died, the one on the table is dead Kazumi.

I knew it was weird on how the twin who was supposed to be in the machine thing didn’t have glasses but when the person went in the machine they suddenly had glasses

Being a twin myself, this concept scares the crap out of me.

It said the monsters formed from a bended reality, if those monsters were recognized by the kid, then was it from his own reality then. Then that would have meant he could have been much more helpful

Six pack stud was a one man team. A MVP. Bros back mustve hurt so much

"if you were put under cryogenic sleep due to a deadly global virus, what will you do?" me : i sleep

Six Packs was the beast to very end i respect that guy

You’re so smart, you noticed a gap in the market in terms of movie/show discussion and you went for it. Props to you, huge respect :)

Dude I watched this anime such a long time ago that when I wanted to remember it i thought i was having a fever dream. Thanks for bringing the nostalgia back

i really like the way you explain what happens in the anime in a way that's so captivating. it feels like I'm rewatching it all over again. everything is so detailed. your own perceptions on how you'd handle things are also very informative and thought provoking. I wish you the best. keep up the good work!

Honestly the movie would've latsted 10 minutes without the stud. Most studs in these horror scenarios are dumb and useless but not him which is a nice change.

I like how 160 people is just a random number and in fact the story is solely all about a group. If the more people the group meet along the way, they can use those people in stead of that Thicc plot armor.

I actually decided to watch the movie thanks to this video, the first five minutes convinced me to pause and go watch it myself. I can say that I absolutely loved the movie, I highly do recommend watching it and then coming back to this video.

I'm glad to see this back up! I was in the middle of watching it when yall took it down. Let's hope it doesn't get claimed this time. Could yall do Hell Girl in the future?

This one was really fun to watch! Amazing as always!!

Lol I always think these videos are so funny seriously if these situations really happen so fast you don’t have time to think on your feet so either way you look at it most likely survivability is slim to none

27:41 tall guy was my favorite character

Most loved Sentence: „They are about to be killed all“

7:30 “I would intentionally put myself in a human crush” Have you ever been in a crush ? There’s a reason they call it that.

Six pack stud was pretty legit i remember watching it and being suspicious of him till he saved mc girl ... felt bad later :( dude was a goat. for only being a movie the characters were pretty decent.rip cant recall well enough to rate this one

In these kind of situations you need three things, a good fight or flight response, problem solving skills and some one or something to fight for.

This is probably the first time I took time to actually look into a movie, and I am glad I watched this video. tho there is so much more to this series especially looking past the movie and checking out the source material (the manga) it is well definitely something else but I like both forms of the story. There is just so much to cover despite this manga/anime being released 2005(manga)/2009(movie). I do have to say it is kinda funny how a lot of this comes down to plot armor for our main protag she should of definitely been killed.

How to beat anime: If you were put under a cryogenic sleep due to a deadly global disease, what would you do? Me: Probably sleep.

15:49 That's actually a FANASTIC twist on the trope, i'll be honest.

It's cool to finally see us Brits military get a spot in anime haha

tall guy was the best character and no one can tell me otherwise

All plans go out the window when I see a video from these guys

"Her dying around the naughty list makes me think she was on the naughty list~" Oh course, it's so obvious now- SANTA'S BEHIND THIS!!!

This really reminds me of Resident Evil lmao. And the Six Pack Stud really being the MVP here the whole time😩😩

okay after watching this video halfway through im convinced this anime was heavily inspired by the Resident evil franchise (without the zombies though)

I love this movie. It just shocked me when I first watched it. I enjoyed the plot twists and overall an 8.3/10 for me. Though in the scene where they go up the slanded stairs, there could’ve been bats there and they’d be dead. I think they forgot about the bats since they never came back.

Omg the more i kept watching this video the more i realized how our thoughts align perfectly especially when you talk about using the guns amos to create distraction for the monsters love the video.

Cool 2009 anime, the dream part makes it unable to state the real world, adding the fact there's twins so it makes every possibility times double and the story is unpredictable

I love this guy can't wait for more amazing content

i love ur videos, keep up the great work!

20:50 what makes you think he would be a completely heartless monster with no morality or pride ready to do anything for his own profit like the stupid selfish monster he is with no regards for others, completely disregarding their lives and the value life has?

I remember finding the manga for this randomly and read through the entire thing in one sitting. Was a pretty wild ride.

* some character saving someones life * "And that was a HUGE mistake"

I think the idea of cryogenics as it stands today is not that the subjects survive the procedure, but rather that their tissues are so well preserved that someone in the future with significantly more advanced medical tech can resurrect them. Transmetropolitan had a great issue #8 touching on this idea.

26:46 That demon monster is the equivalent of Sixpack Stud, thing got shot, burned, AND buried, and it still move on just pure rage and fury for revenge

Here's another mistake: Long guns (rifles, shotguns, etc.), specifically tactical long guns such as the Mk 18 carbine (SBR M4) that SAS "six pack abs" uses and the Mossberg 590A1 that the other two use have slings. Slings are used for a specific reason. They're used to keep your weapon on you. The ones used on both weapons in the anime are two-point slings. SAS guy should know better, but you can't blame the two civvies as much though he should have told them how to run with a sling. This would have prevented the loss of one of the shotguns and the vine-sister-thing getting his rifle during that fight. SAS guy should have also been packing a sidearm in a holster just in case. He should be used to a full combat load which at least in the US Army (source: coworker who served in both Afghanistan and Iraq) is either an 16" M4 carbine or 20" M16 with 8 30 round magazines (7 in the plate carrier and 1 in the rifle), a combat pack which includes the camelback water skin which can weigh up to 30 pounds itself; so carrying the extra pistol and at least three magazines worth of ammo would be nothing in terms of weight considering he already has a plate carrier with the bare minimum of Level 3a plates if not Level 4.

god i love these guys' sponsor transition its so smooth lmao

27:09 Bllnde girl is a medic/nurse and she was seen patching the others up. Assuming this is a post-apocalyptic world, She would be a very valuable, but *sheltered*, resource. 29:42 I take it back she’s far more trouble than she’s worth…

Me: i wish everyone could survive Raycon: It's eat or be eaten, "Survival of the fittest"

I love this content thia contrnt actuslly helped me alot in science on high school and im glad that i subbed becausew its hard for me to knoe without someone explaining

So.. basically this all could've ended if Studman decided to kill "Kasumi" early on by letting her fall

Plot twist every main character has 100% chance of living

i love how you called him six pack stud

when i first saw it i have no idea what going on because the plot is to crazy for me and I'm just a kid, but this bring so much good old days. love the video

You : This chick just turned to stone Me : ARGGGG MEDUSA

I remember this movie! I read the Manga before watching it.

Him calling him six pack stud His extra two pack: am i a joke to you

I remember this when I was in high school. Loved that my high school has this in the library. The manag didn't start with this though. He's going through the history first and then the actual story.(this is on the same level of Deadman wonderland if you wanted to know) I need to finish cause it's really good

Damn it's been a decade since i tried to remember name's of this movie, so nostalgic

You : this chick turned to stone Me : heehee you could said she’s one tough woman, cant break her heart am i right?

Thanks for the recommendation

Damn gotta subscribe bro👌His videos are amazing as hec AND PLUS HE WAS KIND ENOUGH TO BLUR the bloody&gore :)

Woman made of stone falls from sky, "Must be a disease!!!"

Love yalls work!! It be interesting to see a take from you guys on like a "smart" anime Like death note Lelouch Etc

Its been years since l first watched this, it hasnt hit me hard but left some sort of emotion in me. The love between the two sisters, the twists and story in general is all very interesting. So many damn questions that l feel like were never explained. Wouldnt mind watching this again.

I like the image of the road looking like a thorny vine at the end

Another amazing video keep it up

Wouldn't Casume be able to carry supplies and hand out advice in tough scenarios? The best thing would be to make her walk in front of you with you in shotgun in hand with your alibi being monsters. The ideal time for murder is when you're low on supplies/she needs to eat.

Sixpack stud is the true hero of this anime SALUTE TO YOU SOLDIER

There's something nostalgic about this late 2000's - early 2010's anime style

If this was real life, that thing might not have killed her But PTSD would have

I highly recommend reading the original manga. That shit goes absolutely B O N K E R

Thank you! You got a new subscriber! i have already picked up 3 curious anime to watch! And you know Corpse Party! You also present your content in a interesting way. Astonishing!
