Spread across five episodes, the original video animation follows a new weapon that sets out to destroy anything and anyone. While many people would frown upon children getting killed on screen, Genocyber ignored this and featured some kids getting blown up. Despite the fact that gore anime was popular in the ’80s and ’90s, Genocyber did something that many might consider taboo. One of the most controversial entries in this list is the ’90s mecha horror anime Genocyber. Rather than continuing with their normal lives, the sphere, known as GANTZ, forces the pair to play an alien-hunting “game” of unprecedented danger and horror. However, instead of going to heaven or hell, they land in an apartment with a black sphere in the center. Gantz tells the story of two high school students who die after rescuing a beggar from a train. Now, Kaneki must hide his identity as a half-ghoul/half-human and try to live a normal life.Īside from its stunning visuals and gripping storyline, Tokyo Ghoul features ghouls eating and battling each other, which, therefore, leads to a lot of blood. The anime also includes some intense physical and psychological torture that are much worse than getting your arm ripped off. Tokyo Ghoulīased on Sui Ishida’s dark fantasy manga of the same name, Tokyo Ghoul follows shy college student Ken Kaneki whose life takes a grisly turn when his date turns him into a ghoul - a carnivorous creature that can only feed on humans and other ghouls. The anime has really ramped up the brutality this season, as human-on-human violence has become the norm - and is often crueler than what the Titans dished out in previous seasons. However, their bravery is very short-lived when they see the real terrifying horror that a Titan conveys.įrom flying limbs, blood spatter, and the regurgitation of a human carcass, Attack on Titan, doesn’t hold back on the gore fest. Attack on TitanĪs humans face extinction at the hand, or rather, mouth, of cannibalistic giant monsters, known as Titans, a select few step forward to defend humanity. While there are a lot of popular gore anime shows here are some that you definitely need to watch. However, the use of graphic violence is not always for entertainment purposes animators often use it as a tool to further show a dark storyline.

Though gore anime is a controversial genre, fans are fascinated by the brutality, violence, and (un)expected bloodshed.
