That reminds me, the reason I watched HOTD is because a former colleague of mine told me that he read the manga and it was awesome about zombies and stuff. Together with promises of gore he showed me a manga page where a guy was crushing a zombie's head with a pole. Hell yeah it was not what I expected, although not surprised.

Still me being me I enjoyed the show for the awesome headshots, zombie splatter, blood and gore. Just too bad that there was this old, cliché and uninspiring fanservice instead of more blood and gore.
For one thing, Tiff is not on any level what I would call a typical American.  She's not what I would consider a typical person.  I don't know any other genius geneticist anime-fan martial artist marksman model-level beauties, do you?

Man, if zombies attack, I am truly hoping for that fanservice to give me something to live for! 'Cause somehow upskirt zombies just don't seem all that appealing for some reason. Unless they are freshly dead, then maybe. *shudders at the thought*

I wonder if necrophiliacs have a sort of rule like normal people have for eating food that's been on the floor.

Like instead of the "5 second rule" it's the 5 hour rule or the 1 day rule

I agree. The problem I had with it is it was obvious the fan service was slowing the pace of the story down so hardly anything would happen in the span of the season. There's a difference between it being an accent, and producers just using it so they don't have to tell a story.

I had similar problems with Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon (though apparently, I'm the only one here that did?) You've got a light novel source where volumes are fucking phone books. It's got a "class room" setting where every single person in the class is an actual character, tons of material to cover, and they spend most of the half-length season dicking around with fan service. Knowing what the light novels look like it's hard to say you don't know what you're in for, but it so dominates the time spent that they ended up dropping exposition bombs towards the later part of the series so they could actually advance the plot.

Didn't watch the second season, so maybe it's not quite as time wasting, but wasn't impressed with the first.

Haha, what the heck?

I'm sure that if you are truly a necrophiliac, you probably have the same mental mindset as the main character of Sankarea (which also had fanservice). Who cares? As long as they are a zombie.

You should think about it when watching Sankarea, to get your mind of that fucked up father in that anime.

Necrophiliacs don't eat dead people, they have sex with them instead.

So sex with a zombie would be like a necrophiliac having sex with a corpse, before or after rigor mortis set in?

What's particularly disturbing is they still opted to be more revealing for the blu-ray version of those scenes than the TV version.

Sankarea was so awesome, I watched it like 3 or 4 times. The BDs were sweet. Thou about having sex with zombies, I got this flash game that had a fat guy fucking a hot zombie DEAD chick (she wasn't moving), it was hilarious lol.

*shudder* zombie fucking. Yeah. I thought silent hill/RE style zombies and... Yeahno.

Late to the topic but as long as the fanservice is done tastefully, I think the occasional one is fine. Shows that make it the highlight however, are not fine.(coughHOTDcough) though i have notice anime adaptions are about 9999x more likely to have unnecessary amounts of fanservice pushed in compared to the source material. Probably cuz animated upskirts are more entertaining than single panel upskirts. lol
