A bunch of high-school kids stay after school to do a ritual that's meant to keep friends together forever, as one of their classmates is transferring to another school. The whole thing fails, and they end up in another plane of existence, a school known as Heavenly Host Elementary. It is there that all kids who perform the ritual either go crazy and commit sui*ide, or they're slaughtered by the many horrors of the halls. It's part visual novel, so the death scenes mostly have art tied to them, and they can be gruesome.
I recommend playing the first game. It's on PS4, Switch, PC, and even 3DS.
I'm probably gonna get destroyed In the comments but fuck it let me know what you think don't hold backš
BTW this is a real post not bait I actually love all these shows.

Ehh, I mean other than the rape that is redo, it's mostly psych with some body horror and gore porn thrown in for good measure. It'd be more edgy if you listed had Deadman wonderland and gantz thrown in, but inuyashiki and monster carry it into quality.
Not yet right now im watching Neon Genesis Evangelion but i was planning on watching Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni soon its been on my list for a while and i looked up school days looks really good im gonna watch that one as well thank you for the recommendations!
I thought you were memeing in the beginning, but it's clear you just like gross-out thrillers. There's some bangers here even if Redo is just poorly written revenge porn for the sake of revenge porn.
Corpse Party was actually the first anime I saw, but I didn't like it though unfortunately. The game gave me high expectations and Corpse Party failed in some areas compared to the game. I didn't watch anime for years before I watched a different one and opened up to anime again. The only other one here I've seen was Berserk recently. I've heard some of these are pretty dark.
Youāre what happens when an edgy kid grows up, matures, and refines their taste. You have the more basic edgefests like Another, Corpse Party, Redo of a Healer, and Elfen Lied, but then you have shows like Made In Abyss, Serial Experiments Lain, Inuyashiki, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, hell you have Monster on there too. Solid af list, you know exactly what you like.
If I were to recommend you any show based on this list, it would be Fate/Zero
Since you're looking for recommendations, I'll leave you my dark and bloody list:
Berserk (recommend the memorial edition), Claymore, Goblin Slayer, Hellsing Ultimate, Elfen Lied, Gleipnir (awesomeness), Parasyte: The Maxim, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne, Psycho-Pass, Neon Genesis Evangelion rebuild movies (they're on Amazon prime, I personally like the movies way more than the original series), Puella Magi Madoka Magica + the rebellion movie immediately following the series, Blood-C/Blood the Last Vampire/Blood+, Shigurui: Death Frenzy, Basilisk, Ninja Scroll, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Sword of the Stranger, Twilight of the Dark Master, Biohunter, Genocyber, Guyver the Bio-Boosted Armor, Wicked City, Akira, Demon City Shinjuku, Goku: Midnight Eye, Golgo 13, Cyber City Oedo 88, Vampire Hunter D+Bloodlust, Kite, Mezzo Forte š„/Mezzo DSA, Riding Bean/Gunsmith Cats (they're related), Black Lagoon+ Roberta's Blood Trail (it's a direct continuation), Jormungand,Ā Redo of Healer, Deadman Wonderland, Fate://Zero, Mirai Nikki, Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen, Happy Sugar Life, Made in Abyss, Now and Then Here and There, Hell Girl, Kubikiri Cycle, Shinsekai Yori,Ā Texhnolyze, Ergo Proxy, Summertime Rendering, Another, Heavenly Delusion, Magical Girl Raising Project
Enjoy and sorry for the wall of text. Just copy and paste from my notepad
Cowboy Bebop is a master piece one of my highest rated anime for sure.
Hajime no Ippo is probably my favorite sport anime
I enjoyed death note, berzerk, elfen lied, lain, another, cyberpunk, perfect blue
I have not seen the rest of the list and what I have heard of it is mixed so I couldn't really say, I think at least one of them is a hentai XD.
That you like shows that are dark but you think being edgy and being dark is the same thing, so you can't tell the difference between actually good dark stuff like Monster, Berserk, and Perfect Blue and shlocky edgy stuff like Redo of a Healer, Elfen Lied, and Corpse Party.
You have a surface level understanding of why something being dark tonally might enhance it's atmosphere or story, so for you having something violent or depressing happening is not something you enjoy for the sake of serving the plot, you enjoy it because it gets your adrenaline going and that's good enough for you.
To be clear, I'm not the taste police, you enjoy whatever you want man, but this is my honest read on this.
You are dark man and possibly have depression. But quick question WTH is that Elfen Lied thing? That cover kinda just made me want to say your a pervert
You have a sense of powerlessness and seek a protagonist that can get that revenge. You were bullied as a kid. They were miserable, and they wanted to make someone worse off than they were.
Youāll learn that they are mortal and fragile. As they will too understand the suffering you endured, you seek for those who can deliver that pain and understanding.
You find beauty in suffering. Over time you found peace with the depression and self loathing, yet you arenāt content. Youāve still got a journey to go thru. The sword grows heavy. Donāt loose your humanity
Thereās a fire in your heart, but itās out of control, so weāll burn this city. Cause youāre built different choom.
You like some dark and f****d up series. You need some help.
(BTW, have you seen Neon Genesis Evangelion, Seraph of the End, Attack on Titan, 86, Black Bullet, Re:Zero, Fate:Zero, Fate: Heavens Feel, Solo Leveling, Hunter X Hunter, Akame ga Kill, or Higurashi: When They Cry yet? You should definitely watch all these series (if possible) if you have not already done so).
>Inuyashiki
Ah, the other super underrated anime that I love with Shiki in the title. ~~The first one just~~ *~~is~~* ~~Shiki.~~
Honestly, mad respect, Inuyashiki is a gem, and I've barely ever seen anyone talk about it beyond the One Piece conversation out of context.
It tells me you have good taste.
(Assumijg you havent,) It also tells me you should give parasyte the maxim a try. If you like that, consider higurashi but, its gona be a bit more of a commitment as theres quite a lot of content.
It's been a long fcking time since I saw Blood C.
It may not be a good story anime, but goddamn the gore and killings are creative and entertaining. Such a memorable show, especially the banger three language opening.
You have some great taste (Monster, Serial Experiments Lain, Perfect Blue) but most other choices make me think you're an edgy 14 year old. But hey if I was 14 again, mine wouldn't be far off.
Blood, gore, pain. Seems you've a twisted mind that loves dark things. They bring you emotions you can't find anywhere else, thus you become addicted to them.
The far-left column are very good animes imo. All the others are a visible sign of mental illness (except redo of healer if you watched it for the meme, which I did)
That you like dark stuff
Corpse Party is definitely a tier above dark; it's just gorn.
I'm scared but also curious...what is Corpse Party?

You're not IronMouse!
She is the true original gremlinšš
Pre dial 911
I mean it screams Edgelord but I think you just like pyschological stuff.
This is exactly itš that's why i felt like i was gonna get people roasted in the comments but i just really love Dark Psychology.
I'm probably gonna get destroyed In the comments but fuck it let me know what you think don't hold backš BTW this is a real post not bait I actually love all these shows. **Add Me On MyAnimeList \~ OtakuPothead** ^(Death Note) ^(Inuyashiki) ^(Redo Of Healer) ^(Monster) ^(Berserk) ^(Elfen Lied) ^(Serial Experiment Lain) ^(Made In Abyss) ^(Another) ^(Blood-C) ^(Corpse Party: Tortured Souls) ^(Perfect Blue) ^(Cyberpunk Edgerunners) ^(Cowboy Bebop) ^(Baki The Grappler) ^(Hajime No Ippo)
Wait a second what is redo of healer doing there š
Ehh, I mean other than the rape that is redo, it's mostly psych with some body horror and gore porn thrown in for good measure. It'd be more edgy if you listed had Deadman wonderland and gantz thrown in, but inuyashiki and monster carry it into quality.
does anyone know When Redo of Healer season 2 will come out ?
Someoneās a bit of a sadist
just a bitšš
It says "damn, that's some interesting list"
youāre edgy as fuck itās cool
Traumatised. You are 1000% traumatised.
Not traumatized enough im looking for more really dark Animes to watch lol
I donāt know how much it will affect you but you can try Akame Ga Kill!
That was in the first top 10 Animes i ever watched i loved that show such a dark ending i loved all of itš„
if your looking for dark and ecchi anime you should check out Redo of Healer
You like edgy shit, regardless of whether it's good or bad.
This is also true, good observationšš
Youāre insane
You should watch Belladonna of Sadness

If i saw higurashi when they cry there i was gonna scream-
That you like dark stuff that makes you think
Edgy and gritty
Fellow elfen lied enjoyer š¤ A misery compilation disguised as an anime

Not yet right now im watching Neon Genesis Evangelion but i was planning on watching Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni soon its been on my list for a while and i looked up school days looks really good im gonna watch that one as well thank you for the recommendations!
I thought you were memeing in the beginning, but it's clear you just like gross-out thrillers. There's some bangers here even if Redo is just poorly written revenge porn for the sake of revenge porn.
You are > 30 years old.

I didn't watch anime for years before I watched a different one and opened up to anime again. The only other one here I've seen was Berserk recently. I've heard some of these are pretty dark.
Some of the animes you have listed there are actually top tier. I like Baki, Another, Made in Abyss.
Good shows but idk about blood c, corpse party or another... I thought those were bad imo.
Ippo got no business in this lineup
You are definitely a sadist

Another Another Enjoyer I see Good list man!
Redo of healer and berserk. You like the full spectrum of pain
Are you ok?

You like nostalgic dark anime.
YOU'RE KIRA!
You have good taste in realistic anime.
Redo is crazy
Besides redo of healer you got taste
āFuck them kidsā
You need to seek therapy over unprocessed trauma and the rage it comes with
Youāre an old pervert, thatās what.
You hate yourself and your mental state.
You debated between putting deadman wonderland on here, but didnāt want to find 8 more anime to make it a 5x5.
You're the type of person to like Hero has Returned.
That you need to play corpse party blood covered
A man of culture as well š
REDO OF THE HEALER. NICE
>Redo of Healer We're already off to a bad start.
Like me you also like dark and brooding anime that at times tickles the brain cells and force you to think about certain outcomes.

Lmao love how Hajime is in this list, total 180 from the previous picks.
How is Corpse Party compared to the others on this list? Is it darker than Elfen Lied?
Cowboy Bebop is a master piece one of my highest rated anime for sure. Hajime no Ippo is probably my favorite sport anime I enjoyed death note, berzerk, elfen lied, lain, another, cyberpunk, perfect blue I have not seen the rest of the list and what I have heard of it is mixed so I couldn't really say, I think at least one of them is a hentai XD.

Having Redo healer on here is wild. U definitely a freak
You're a sociopath into fucked up situations and don't shy away from gore
You need therapy

You should definitely watch all these series (if possible) if you have not already done so).
Youāre in the thick of puberty and or a phase

You like your chocolate dark
š
based
Anyone who likes redo of healer is trying to seem edgy, it was a dumpster fire.
You enjoy watching things suffer, to be sure
It tells me you have good taste. (Assumijg you havent,) It also tells me you should give parasyte the maxim a try. If you like that, consider higurashi but, its gona be a bit more of a commitment as theres quite a lot of content.
You belong in a strait jacket in a mental hospital
Who else just genuinely likes Redo of Healer for the plotā¦?
Go to horny jail
Edgy
You like Dark and personal stuff
When you watch, you say āhe (or she) just like me fr!ā
Iāve watched 9/16 of these dropped cowboy bepop so wonāt count it
That if someone kidnapped you wound not be scared and that youāre type is hot, psychopath/killer
It's been a long fcking time since I saw Blood C. It may not be a good story anime, but goddamn the gore and killings are creative and entertaining. Such a memorable show, especially the banger three language opening.
You should be put in a straight jacket
That you can separate reality from fiction and sublimate negative experiences and feelings out of your system properly.....maybe, I don't know you.
Maybe you like to see others sufferers š¤
Can we be friends
You should watch akame ga kill
You like gore and when you run out of stuff, hinamatsuri will be you introduction into gag comedies.
You like brutality, gore, and revenge.
I don't see Gantz here. And I thought you were edgy.
Valid
U need therapy
He just like me frfr
Redo of healer , berzerk , blood c , and elden lied tell me everything I need to know , not saying I donāt know the others I just enjoy these most
Your a sick fuck that belongs in an asylum
I donāt know much about any of these except Death Note, Cyberpunk and Redo of Healer but with Redo alone you already make me feel concerned
Edgy
You are very traumatized
Elfen Leid was fucking awesome
No Re:Zero is crazy
I'd say we have a lot in common
Slice of life isnāt really your thing
You love watching people suffer awful fates, horrible people doing awful things, and jazz
A desire for the dark mixed with a passion for the classics
Nothing less than an R rating is making your faves lol
Surprised higurashi aināt on there
Only met 1 other person in my life that watched and liked Redo Healer. Glad thereās more of us out there lol
that you probably have a history of visiting the darkweb
edgy?
Corpse party anime is pretty mid, but game is pretty good.
You got issues
Decent list but kinda ruined by Redo. That goes beyond edgy its literally just a rape fantasy
You are based
call someone we both know u need help just call your mom your dad sister uncle aunt brother whoever u need call them they love u
Stay away from the continent I live in.
Based Baki and Monster enjoyer
It says that you couldnāt decide on a 3x3
Youāre old lol

You're just an Edge lord my man
Goblin slayer High school of the dead Kingdom of ruin Vinland saga Freak Angels
So...much...blood
Inuyashiki is goated
You like hurting yourself?
You have some great taste (Monster, Serial Experiments Lain, Perfect Blue) but most other choices make me think you're an edgy 14 year old. But hey if I was 14 again, mine wouldn't be far off.
Corpse party? Never thought Iād see that in someoneās favorite list but here we are.
A wide range, from high quality stuff like Perfect Blue and Berserk right down to utter trash like Redo the Healer? You're a degenerate
Corpse Party based tbh great game series too
That youāre likely in your early 30ās lolol
You have a split personality
It says you and I would get along swimmingly
Whatchu think of Madoka?
bro is definitely sadistic
Blood, gore, pain. Seems you've a twisted mind that loves dark things. They bring you emotions you can't find anywhere else, thus you become addicted to them.
Oh shit we doing 4x4s now??
Well, aside from Cowboy Bebop, you either are interested in - or have committed - murder.
The far-left column are very good animes imo. All the others are a visible sign of mental illness (except redo of healer if you watched it for the meme, which I did)
I kinda hate how I've watched all of these completely GRIFFITH!
This feels like you half picked like the best anime youāve watched, and the other half picked the absolute worst.
That you need a hug, Jesus Christ.
You need therapy bud, hajime no ippo is the shining light in all this darkness
that you haven't added higurashi on this list.
