After watching this, I can understand why the episode was delayed due to the axe murder. It was much more violent than I thought it’d be, and that’s even with the black blood censorship (which made things look kinda weird). Actually though, according to the people who went to the special screening of the final episode that Overflow held, the AT-X broadcast was edited heavily. In the uncut version, not only was the blood was red, but there were also no flashbacks during the Makoto stabbing scene (a lot more of where she stabbed him were there), they actually showed Makoto’s head in the bag, and there were apparently some more sounds added to the baby-confirmation scene.

Speaking of which, it’s not entirely clear about whether Sekai was really pregnant or not, but I tend to give her the benefit of the doubt because Kotonoha was completely messed up by that point, and I don’t think Sekai had been pregnant long enough for Kotonoha to be able to just cut her open and find a dead baby. That scene was just one part of what ended up being one of the most disturbing episodes I’ve ever seen.

If you think about it, there were two violent deaths, a severed head, an opening up of a girl up to see if she’s pregnant, and a hugging of that severed head. I certainly wasn’t expecting a good ending or anything, but this was off the charts since they essentially combined two bad endings from the game. The sad thing is that they could have gone for a clean sweep of all three bad endings by having Kotonoha kill herself by jumping off the building. I think that the yacht scene probably had more dramatic impact than that would have though.

Final Thoughts: This series started off so innocently like it was going to be any other harem show, and even though a lot of us knew that there was a potential for a bad ending like in the game, I don’t think that many people seriously thought they were going to end that way. That is, until Makoto started sleeping with everything that moved - putting himself in an unredeemable situation - and Kotonoha started showing signs of being mentally ill. Overall though, I still think the production team did a remarkable job building up the suspense and portraying each of the characters’ raw emotions. The story isn’t exactly a crowd-pleaser, but with an ending like this, I can honestly say that I won’t be forgetting about School Days anytime soon.

  1. it’s sick! bad ending! wad about summer days? coming soon?

  2. Oh Sh#t! Awesome ending! Even better boat!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

  3. NOOOOOO MAKOTO WAS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER!!! I HATE SEKAI

  4. Tragic Yet Beautiful Ending. The First Couple Of Episode You Would Never Expect This Kind Of Ending. But Altogether I Loved This Anime.

  5. dudes… was that his freakin head in her arms while she was on the boat? was his body in that bag? kotonoha is a psycho girl.

    Makoto - ass for cheatin on kotonoha with sekai. then while with sekai, he’s an ass for doin all those other girls back to kotonoha.

    Sekai - bitch for lettin makoto sex her while he’s with kotonoha. and total asshole for scarin the shit outta makoto by sayin shes pregnant when shes not.

    Kotonoha - … im not rly sure if she did anything wrong other than making out with makoto in front of sekai(even though she lied about bein pregnant) and total psycho bitch for cuttin up makoto, showing it to sekai, killing sekai, and talking to makoto’s head on the boat… flat out weird..

  6. and makoto’s face when he’s dead scared the shit outta me.. it was even more scary than kotonoha’s when she was broken hearted..

  7. Wow.. lol!!!!! thank god.. when she got killed lol!!!! I bet the dude all ready knew he would die… or wanted to die any way… so he said ty has a good thing ;) anyway good drama… hugging a head.. totaly nasty….cool!

  8. Wow! WOW! WOOOW! That totally blew my expectations for the finale of School Days!

  9. I have mixed feelings about School days.

    Look at the title, I thought it was suppose to be a light hearted comedy-romance. I so fucking think it was going to be like school rumble, lovehina, suzuka, Ichigo 100%etc.
    No one will forsee this conclusion at the first 4 episode.

    This is a fucked up anime. Kotonoha, Seika and the likes are draw and graphic-ed very very well. I am still bashing my head why it had to turn up like that. Especially ep11 where hikaru EVEN slp with Matoko. Haha, I admit I wanted Matoko to suffer very badly. Right from the start of his indecisiveness, apathy and perverted self-centred actions that is so detrimental to Kotonoha.
    I think we sort of forseed, Seika, otome , kiyora will also be hurted by matoko. THis is seriously fucked up, even time I said Matoko gettin himself into deeper shit, everytime I saw him manipulating the girls feelings, I was actually hoping for a redemption. It doesn’t happen.

    Well, that may be the unqiue traits of School days that draw so many fans. AHH. Sorry fot the rant, I just need to get it off my chest.

    Now, I guess, we all can slp well. Going to watch Air TV now. School days make me drawn more to depressing anime. Well, at least there is a jerk like Matoko there.

  10. sorry. Imeant the male protagonist is a jerkoff like matoko.

  11. Opps, My bad again. Too dizzy. I meant ” ISN’t” sorry for the spam

  12. hahaha! DIE DIE DIE!

    but… that head in bag…. sigh

  13. i will never forget this anime

  14. Never has a show made me act like THAT in my whole entire life….
    Truly a masterpiece…
    I will never forget this show as it has scarred me for life….
    I wish I could have recorded my face during that last ep just too see how crazy I reacted lol.

  15. Bloody ending was expected, but this was way beyond my expectations. School Days is the best anime ever, and if the ending was good without a twist, it would’ve made School Days just like every other show.

  16. This goes to sow u how power full LOVE is lol…. is can almost killed ya (ture fact) ehhehe

  17. I’m sooo happy :)

  18. LOVE CAN KILL YA sad……. i will never act like that perv…….

  19. A sweet anime in the beginning becomes a very violent in the end. What a disappointment

  20. Boat! BOAT! Boat! Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!Boat! BOAT! Boat!

    I can’t stop LAUGHING! Kotonoha and Makoto FOREVER AT LAST!!!!!!!!!

  21. This anime was brilliant! Noone will forget last minute of eposide 12(kotonoha on boat) for long, long time.

  22. @ Saikyo:” I wish I could have recorded my face during that last ep just too see how crazy I reacted.”

    well, same for me^^

    but it’s sad that it had to end up like this. in some way, i find sekai was the worst of them, even if makoto was a real ass. but to kill him, for that…i mean he was a teenager…. hurt = ok … but kill….
    uaah…this freaks me off…

  23. This was HORRIBLE! I was prepare for a bad ending but this was really bad and bloddy! We did not only get a bad ending, we got 2 bad endings and a final scene with Kotonoha with Makoto’s head!!! Too creepy!!

    I don’t know what to think about School Days… I liked it since the beginnig and I thought that it’d be a very nice romantic anime, something that it could happen to anyone but with every episode I realize that it wasn’t going to be like that. I never knew what could happen next and that caught my attention.

    After episode ten everything was so mess up! I think it was so unreal and exaggerated and this last episode was too violent!! The part when Kotonaha wanted to confirm if Sekai was pregnant was sooooo… (I think that she really WAS pregnant but whatever…)

    School days was a very good anime but at the end it lost its essence. It was a story about a love triangle and end up being a story about a bastard named Makoto, a pregnant girl named Sekai and a totally insane girl name Kotonoha.

  24. what did i tell ya, nothing like a lovely hacking gorefest to finish off a sweethearted series about teenage romance.

    mokoto got completely served!

    good, he deserves it. but it still has an important message about responsibility and about being mature. its an extreeme yes but such things occasionally happen.

    well worth waiting for the ending and im glad that ATX had the balls to actually show the season finale. that would never get shown on TV over here if something happened.

    awesome anime in all very well presented and top notch story telling. good job.

    just a quick thanks to the subbers and everyone involved in spreading this anime too the masses

    thank you and goodnight.

  25. GREAT SHOW I MISS MAKOTO THOUGH HE COULD JUST PICK 1 AFTER SLEEPIN WITH ALL OF THEM AND AFTER APOLOGIZING NEVER EVER DO IT AGEN….
    Makoto T_T i wish i could make it an happy ending with sekai and kotonoha agreeing to be rivals and make rules so no one ever goes near makoto…but they are still GOOD FRIENDS!!!!

    try watching Onegai twins and Onegai teacher same as school days but not violent but a little bit of nudity but u cant see any private parts though…..ROMANCE ^_^

  26. barbaric acts…ahhh…this is too much for an ending…for goodness sake…

  27. @Raze: yeah. onegai twins and onegai teacher is recommended to watch. purely romance. man…need to brainwash myself by watching it to erase my experiences dealt here in School Days…sad…

  28. i wonder what the uncut looks like….

  29. are u gunna put summer days?

  30. is there a summer days anime olso?

  31. Ya summer days is coming OverFlow is doing it!!!! i heard it is more bloody….. or less…

  32. Holy shit! that was the craziest ending I seen so far! she is one hot and crazy bitch =/

  33. Summer days? WOW YES! Can someone post a link to the Summer Days anime schedule?

  34. I wanted Itou to suffer horribly like everyone else, but the creators did a good job of making it seem as though he actually learned something and given the chance would not cheat again, and through all the cheating katsura finally leveled up from being a little girl and i still think that if sekai never went mad they would had had a chance now, but it just turned out have a bad ending it’s quite sad that katsura with nothing left had to resort to a head on a nice book imao.

  35. Okay I think That you’ll all agree with me that there sould not be an anime just like this casue…… it kinda fuck up i kinda wish there was a happy ending with katsura and makoto but to see sekai kill makoto in fornt off us is just really horrible and fuck up you guys sould just look forward to season 2 Summer Days I Kinda wish that no one have to died even though i think one preson is going to die but there was 2 preson ahhh soo sad makoto sould have to die….. just as it had end he was about to just love one preson that he love for ages this anime have the best horrible ending ever at the 1st ep i though it was the happiest anime ever but then as he went on it was just about have sex with everyone i kinda wish wot katsura and makoto head because i was really hoping for a happy end ever since i watch this anime but for it to turn out like this…… i can even say i feel really sorry for makoto because he just found about love and the sekai and fucking killed him beside i really don’t think that there ever well be a 2nd season cause look how the story end…….. i was hoping that sekai would just not have been with makoto in the end there was soo much lose but one thing for sure i dont ever want an anime to end like this…… Oh Well Hope They Make season 2 With A FUCKING HAPPY ENDING

  36. @Kenzakii: I agree. I also have wanted a happy ending for this…but look at what happened…so sad…

  37. Anyway If Anyone Know When Summer Days Is Coming Out Please Just Email Me At The_Best_of_Roy@hotmail.com Thank-You Very Much And Hope For A Happy Ending For Summer Days Just Asking Well Makoto Be In Summer Days?? Because Right Now I Dont Think He’ll Be Nor Sekai…Because As You Can See That They Are Dead O_O!

    Please Don’t Let Me Down Animetor Make It A Happy Ending This Time Casue I Think After Seen This Anime People Would Like A Happy Ending Now…….

  38. No Makoto is in summber days eheheh and all the guys/girls r in there is just a new story with them in it again ;)

  39. i think the violence in the end may have been a little over the top kenzakii, but im sure there was a point behind it all.

    even if it was lost behind a horrific act of bloody violence. ; )

  40. Wow, I think we all learned that its just a plainly bad idea to cheat on your girlfriend. But seriously that takes some balls to actually show that ending. 4.5/5
    -.5 for freaking me the hell out.

  41. That is awesome all but this last ep it really horrible!!

  42. Knock knock…

    Who’s there?

    a Nice Boat.

    Oh, come in.

  43. oh well indeed we have a boat right there in the last episode…well, I don’t think it’s all nice…heck how’d you call a boat with a bodyless head on board nice! =O *sigh* well then it’s all over. from ep1-11 I was expecting that the ending would be that different from the game…Well…at least the series killed 2 birds with 1 stone (kotonoha) which is sekai and itou, the 2 culprits, without them none of this would have happened hahaha!)

  44. Ha ha ha ha ha! Brilliant! Wonderful! A spectacular finish!

    I loved how things just became so exponentially worse as it went on. You start off with a simple love triangle, but then Setsuna comes along and foments jealousy and miscommunication, all the meanwhile Makoto becomes increasingly uncontrollable. Soon everything has become complicated and sordid, and the situation spirals out of control so quickly it hits what can only be the lowest low for a downer ending since Tang.

    Let this be a lesson to all you Unlucky Everydudes out there! Never try to start a harem when your haremettes don’t KNOW they’re haremettes!

  45. in real life i would bet anyone here would crap a brick if they saw makoto’s face >.

  46. Omgosh this school days anime is forever embedded in my memory
    i simply loved it….

  47. If anyone hadn’t noticed yet, not only did they combine the bad endings but they also placed in a good one, which is the final kiss of konotoha and itou at the rooftop during lunch time. that was actually the game’s Kotonoha-good ending, in which no one dies, kotonoha and itou finally together :) (sekai gets dumped)

  48. This show just shows never to whore around or you will get screwed up!! Or worst.. DEATH!!(In Itou’s Case)

  49. Even though this is an Anime, it get’s real, in my stomach atleast. If this is reality, ofcourse I wouldn’t know, however I wouldnt be surprised. Had he cut off his dick in ep1 then none of this would’ve happened, hope they make that a season 2, or atleast a special. Besides, to sum it all up, what’s life with nothing but sugar without a little salt and pepper?

    And with that said. Carebears, trolls and other imaginativly self-confident people, it’s your turn.

  50. Wow……simply…..wow. That son of a b#@(h Mokoto got what he most rightfully deserved. I couldn’t stand him after the end of episode 4. I kinda felt bad for Kotonoha all thru the series and yet I would say she’s the safe player till the end cause she really didn’t do nothing bad except chopped up Mokoto’s body and kill Sekai.

    I really didn’t think Sekai would get killed, ya know? I guess she knew she was going end up fighting Kotonoha at the roof seeing how she kept the knife on her. Psycho girl FTMFW YO!

    Well, I hope all of you playa-wannabes out there who’ve watched this show learned a valuable lesson from this. Its ain’t cool to hit on other girls when you already have someone. Oh I SO need to get the DVDs to this series and hope they don’t edit the DVD version of episode 12.

  51. the beginning was so pure you know boy likes girl gorl likes boy then like episode 5 or it got really wired and by episode 7 It was just sick an demented wow I know about the ending to this show,I thought Makoto got her pregnant and left for Konohana an I was like oh he deserved it but then when I found out Sekai was lying about being pregnant I was like oh my god, and i felt bad about Makoto even though he was a two timing ahole but still not die in the series and I knew that Konohana was kill Sekai because rooftop midnight once she sent her the text I was like Oh she’s dead and I felt so bad for Konohana but at least she got her revenge only real part that crept me out was when she was holding Makoto head on the boat also when she cuts Sekais stomach open and I still feel bad for Makoto cause if it was for Sekai I bet he would be dating whats he face his best from from middle school forgot her name, as for Makoto and Sekai have fun burning in hell much but still loved the show^^

  52. O…….M……..G…….. SO SCARY D:

  53. Hi I found your blog via Google today (wow, it is Saturday already!) as I was searching for Asian Fucking Black Dick and your blog entry looked interesting to me. I don\’t know but I am really obsessed with asian boys. You got any tips for me where to find some? Greetings from *** gayasianboysex.com ***

  54. best boat i’ve ever seen.

  55. I was so shocked! That said though I thought that the ending was totally fitting, Makoto had it coming. And yes, he got royally served ArtificialInsomniac , I didn’t think Sekai -too- guilty but Kotonoha was raving mad, this was proved when she slices open Sekai ”See, there’s nobody there” lol. I hated her weak character In the begining, but she had it rough to be honest. I mean Taisuke raped her! And she’s been fucked about by everyone (instead of fucking everyone like makoto). I wish i was in Makotos position around episode 4, special training :)

  56. When I watch this, I never played the game. Though, I visit the wikipedia page… I get glimpse of “Bad” Endings.

    But… this is the first Anime I had watched that had this content. You would really think that it wouldn’t end like “it”, seeing that most Animes aren’t like that. -But the fact that it does happened, meant this Anime is exceptionally good, definitely not a crowd-pleaser but good.

    Really, at first, I thought this is a laid-back Anime that focuses on normal lives of High Schools, but it made me dump my prejudice… amazing.

    Makoto - At first, I like his innocence, but when he started going out with other people that Sekai and Katsura… I started to hate him as a man. -And for not breaking off with Katsura earlier.

    Sekai - I was rooting for her, but I hate her for being cowardly for not telling Katsura earlier… she had betrayed Katsura, and Katsura found it when it was too late, thus she snaps. I am convinced she is pregnant, she has the signs of it… but when Katsura cut her up… what would she expect? A 2-inch fetus?

    Katsura - Really, a girl that is bullied. A girl that is betrayed. A girl that had been keeping her feelings inside. -What would you expect her to do? I would snap too if I were her…. as I am the same as her, I understand her.

    It’s Sekai’s fault for seducing Makoto. Kiyora’s fault for exchanging seats with Sekai. It’s Makoto’s fault for not being faithful. It’s Otome’s fault because she seduced Makoto… etc, etc, etc…

    In the end, it’s nobody’s fault -every contributed in how the ending ends, so stop pointing fingers. -I may be wrong, but I don’t care. It’s kinda feels good to release the tension after watching that…

    To throw away any person’s feelings is a sin, and to throw a delicate maiden’s feelings is… suicidal. -Nereid

  57. I couldn’t understand some parts of this article , but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.

  58. WOW! that was soo disturbing in sooo many ways. WoW. Makoto or watever was a son of a bitch. Sekai was a bitch. (hot tho) and kotonha was a pshyco bitch. well thats bout it. disturbing too.

  59. God
    Dam
    Amazing

    Got 2 love this 1 am happy and sad at the same time happy because that was the most brilliant and probably unique ending in the world, and also sad that Katsura and makoto didn’t live happily ever after as he appeared to be more mature at the end.

    So good i wish there was more 10/10

  60. it’s so great anime
    but I don’t think the ending should be that bloody
    i’m sure that we all love kotonoha , cuz she is the right person
    the worst person was makoto , he was a stupid playboy
    BTW kotonoha was a psycho girl with a weak heart
    and after she saw makoto’s body , she turned to another person !!
    but i like the way she used to make sure that there isn’t baby in sekai
    and the sadest part (I think no one will forget that picture) is in the boat
    BTW i love boats :D

    last thing , does the blood in japan have the black color ? lol

  61. I was really shocked with the ending, never expected it. It was a great ending in my opinion. Really got caught by this anime, its one of the best i’ve ever seen.
    It shows what can happen when things get too crazy. It was all fault of damn Makoto for being too irresponsible and getting laid with every girl in the anime. I really wanted him to die. On the other hand, i was really sad when Kotonoha killed Sekai, she was really cute. =(

  62. HOLY SHIT. this scene will hunt me lol. freakin awsome

  63. ok…O.o i won’t get laid anymore, after seeing what happens if you toy around with girls feelings i think it’s best i leave the female species for what it is (no i’m not reverting to gayness ill just watch internet and magazines) ill keep my female friends to be just friends, nothing more nothing less well atleast untill i finish school and i’m sure i won’t be seduced by other ladies ^^
    -
    i think that makoto is the cause of all this :s ok other people were involved 2 but it’s for the majority his fault i mean he loves that 1 girl and then when he finaly gets her he’s going to his childhood friend ?! WTF O.o ok i mean i had a few girlfriends myself and i know that love weares out if you see each other every day but i mean cmon :p then you go straight up to that girl and tell her how you feel and make a real closure…
    if makoto would have done that with kotonoha i think she wouldn’t have gotten mentaly ill i think she would have understood then he could have been happy with sekai maybe even be a daddy?^^ ( actually i don’t know what to think ’cause in the most scenes you get the impression that sekai was really pregnant like in the scenes that she was alone and toutching her tummy and stuff but then we hear fro kotonoha that there is nothing ? leaves ye with questions eeh ? :P but that aside i think this was the best anime ever ^^

    damn i need a cig now >.

  64. hi
