Warning: I may say some game spoilers and might
probably compare it…and some (animated) bloodshed and (animated) dead bodies
Fuuko: Boo! Did ya get scared?
[Please say “Yes” (^_^;)]
As most of you know, Corpse Party: Tortured Souls was based off of the Adventure, Horror game, Corpse Party. First, I want to say is that:
As most of you know, Corpse Party: Tortured Souls was based off of the Adventure, Horror game, Corpse Party. First, I want to say is that:
1. I’ve been waiting for this
moment (like Neptunia),
2. I’ve played Corpse Party and its sequel, Book of Shadows (currently playing) on my PS Vita
(though they’re PSP/PSN games) and they’re pretty enjoyable (if you enjoy
horror games and/or have a powerful imagination [you’ll see why if you haven't played it yet]),
and 3. Even if it’s an animation
or just the great voice acting by my favourite VA’s, both the Game and Anime
scare the “Fat” off of me… (>_<;)
I’ll be talking about all 4
episodes (and probably some of the game series as
well) starting with episode 1. So without any jump scares, let’s this Horror Adventure and enter the halls of Heavenly
Host Elementary. [I’m
getting Goosebumps just watching again let alone reviewing it (>_<;)]
To start off any Corpse Party,
you must have how they were there in the first place (aka The Prologue) and the
Naomi and Seiko arc. In the Anime version, it starts off with the scenery of
inside Heavenly
Host Elementary and giggles of little children while the scenery
changes. Naomi
(one of the main Heroines) suddenly regains consciousness and notices that
she’s in a classroom but one that she’s not familiar with. She picks up her
Student ID and takes out a piece of what it turns out to be ripped paper and
stares at it. Then she suddenly remembers…
At this point, this is where the Game version actually starts off so you can say it’s
like a switch-er-roo or something like that. It begins with Ayumi
(another main Heroine) telling her classmates a ghost story about Kusaragi
Academy…
Ayumi: It happened on a rainy day after
school, just like this one, a female teacher lost her footing, fell down the
stairs and died. The Principal treated the school as if it was his own child but
the misfortune continued…
On a certain day after the incident, it was
decided that the school will be closed down. Since then, the Principal’s heart
broke down so much that on the closing day of the school, he climbed up to the
school’s rooftop and committed suicide!
All: *gasp* (O_O;)!
Ayumi: Where Kusaragi Academy is standing now is where the cursed Heavenly Host Elementary
once stood. The teacher that fell down the stairs still has no idea that she
died on that day. They say that on rainy days, she still roams though these
dark hallways.
Whenever that teacher appears, she’s always
accompanied by a sudden blackout. Then you will hear knocking sounds from the
classroom door. As the door slowly opens…a pale white face peeks in and says, “Is
anyone still here?”.
Wait, it’s actually happening?! (O_O;)
Oh thank you, it’s only Yui-sensei… (^_^;)
Satoshi
just felt up Naomi
Looks like Yuka is here to give her Onii-chan
an umbrella
Yuka then introduces herself with
Naomi,
Ayumi,
Seiko, and Mayu mesmerized by her cuteness
and being jealous that Satoshi having a kawaii imouto.
After all that, Ayumi wants to do
the “Sachiko Ever After” charm that she found in the internet (aka K***‘s blog) before they leave since it is also
Mayu’s last day in the Academy. It is said that if you do this charm with your
friends, no matter how far away you guys are, you will always be together.
Man I really want to cry at this point…
(T^T)
Okay so the way this charm works
is that you need about 2 or more “Ideal Candidates”
*cough* I mean “friends” and gather around
and form a circle around a paper Sachiko-san doll and say and repeat the words,
“Sachiko-san, we beg of you” (or “Sachiko-san, onegaishimasu”) in your
head for every “Body” in the room. No more, no
less and you can’t stop partway through or the charm “fails”. So in their case,
nine times.
You should be nervous
So they begin the charm.
After the chanting, they each
grab hold of the doll and then pull and rip the doll apart till they each have
a piece of that doll.
I feel bad for that doll…
Lightning FTW!
So once they obtain their piece
of paper, as long as they have it, they will always be connected as friends.
And that’s the end of the charm basically…
They are ready to pack up and
leave but suddenly…an earthquake happened.
Damn! That’s a big one! (O_O;)
Looks like they’re…
Falling down into a big hole
And now we are back where we left
off.
Here’s the Opening Sequence with
the most awesome Opening Song “Hoshikuzu no Ring” sung by Asami Imai (aka Ayumi’s
VA; also the VA of Neptunia’s Noire
and more)
After the Opening, Naomi
apparently has a sprain after falling and suddenly sees Seiko. She tries to
wake her up and once she opened her eyes, Seiko asks her where are they as well
as the others but Naomi doesn’t know.
Naomi tries to open the windows
but they won’t move an inch.
Come to think of it, it does… (O_O;)
Later, Naomi hear voices of
children out on the hall.
I would probably scream by now…
Then they left the classroom and
started walking to the hallway to find a way out. Seiko noticed that Naomi’s
walking funny and asks her about her leg and she said it was sprained and then…
Holy Crap! There’s a Little Girl behind them!
(O_O;)
Seiko then she asks her if she
okay and Naomi said she fine while the Little Girl disappears.
While they were walking in the hall, they were talking about the classroom they were in earlier and saying that the desks look small like Elementary School size.
The Little
Girl showed up again!! (O_O;)
Once they went downstairs they
realized that they’re the only ones here and Seiko’s playful Yuri instincts
kicks in.
Rubbing her face in your Oppai! (^_^)
They made it to what it appears
to be a restroom and Seiko is asking Naomi for…
Ass Cream?
Naomi then tries the windows
again but doesn’t budge. Then she looks at a Clock’s window reflection and then…
???: ‘Sup
Naomi:
Seiko?
After that, they head for the
school entrance only to find out it’s locked.
Then Naomi heard something but it
appears that Seiko didn’t hear it and later suggests that they should find
somewhere to sleep for now.
They head for the infirmary where
Seiko does First Aid to Naomi’s sprained ankle.
Still at the infirmary, Naomi is lying
down in the bed then hears “DONG!” like what you here in Grandfather Clocks and
suddenly it becomes dark and for some reason can’t move her body or speak. A light
then randomly opens and a ghost is scribbling in a notebook.
Blood started coming out of the
walls, Bloody hand prints are showing up behind glass of cabinets, an ominous
aura appears...and making a 16.5 with Naomi?!
What a rich “H”orror scene we have here! (O_O)
At Seiko’s end…
A fresh decapitated female body with the wait
down still intact so you can still see the intestines squirting… (O_O;)
Back in Naomi’s end, Naomi is
still gulping up the ominous aura and suddenly heard Seiko’s voice and was
finally able to move again but that aura is ready for round 2 so she tries and
defends herself and heads for the door but it now has hair on it and beings
pulling it off the door in panic.
She then tries and open the sliding door before the ominous aura shows up and manages to escape.
Candle = Safe point
Then Naomi sees a person on a
chair (thinking it was Seiko) and feels relieved but it turns out to be a
corpse. She then feels like puking but then, the little girl shows up and blood
is coming out of her mouth and freaks her out then Seiko arrives.
Naomi then pukes and then becomes
angry at Seiko saying why was she not there when she needed her the most and Seiko
begins crying and runs off.
While walking at the halls, Seiko
blames herself for not being with Naomi at that time and plans on apologizing.
Seiko then starts to her someone calling for her.
With Naomi, she wonders why she
said all that to Seiko and plan on apologizing to her. She plans on going up
the stairs but then saw a bunch of freshly killed corpses on them. Then she
hears the “DONG!” again while looking for Seiko and the clock stopped and she
found the Ass Cream she gave to her.
Thinking that Seiko is fine at
the restroom, she heads for the toilets and begins apologizing. Then she
suddenly hears a sound that ropes make if you are making it tight or hanging
something and sees a toilet door semi opened and heads over there. When she
opened it…
Seiko is hanged?! (O_O;)
Naomi notices that Seiko was
still alive so she plans on saving her. She tries removing the rope…definitely
will fail since it will put more force on the neck. So instead, she finds a
bucket, removes the contents, uses it as a standing stool but it gave way and…
Seiko died…
In the end, Naomi realized that
they are all in Heavenly
Host Elementary.
To summarize this, it was Mayu's last day in Kusaragi Academy and Ayumi wanted to do simple friendship charm that she found in the internet that turns out to be a portal to hell and Naomi and Seiko being the starting pair to start off the series with some BFF moments that turns into a one-sided verbal assault fight them blaming oneself for another's mishap while planning on making up and apologizing to each other, and finally the part that rarely happens, one commits suicide (since this chapter is the least scariest one of all chapters but really has full of drama where it makes you want more and giving you curiosity on how the others work it out in this cursed place they call Heavenly
Host Elementary).
So...Who's up for the "Sachiko Ever After" Charm? I know I'm not! (>_<;)
See you guys in Episode 2!
See you guys in Episode 2!
???: There is no escape hahahaha
