That chick with the club you're referring to is Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan.

A couple of other gory series include Elfen Lied and GANTZ...

I haven't actually seen these shows myself, but from what I've heard, they're pretty bloody.

Berserk and Hellsing are both pretty bloody. Parts of Le Portrait de Petite Cossette as well.

Goriest I've personally seen through is Mystery of the Necronomicon, a Lovecraft/Evil Dead influenced hentai. I did a video a few years back that includes most of the good parts, including the (in)famous tail-to-tail impalement. The stuff Zarx used for the Cannibal Corpse track in Hell 0 looked pretty promising as well, but I haven't gotten around to digging those up.

A good rule is that the earlier it is, the more viciousness and blood is on the screen. Late '80s - early '90s was the golden age of gore OVA. Unfortunately, not a lot of stuff from this period is commercially available -- Violence Jack is out of print, and nobody ever licensed Maryuu Senki in the first place (I did this video from an old SP VHS copy). Shuten Doji, the first MD Geist...I just love that "machine grotesque" feel like a Benediction or Suffocation (death metal bands, rough contemporaries) album cover, even if the story isn't actually all that good.

The newer stuff like Elfen Lied I just can't get into. The art is too simplistic and clean, so you're not really feeling the dismemberment. Painted cells just seem more raw and dirty, making the violence more immediate.

I've always liked Biohunter and Akira... they are both pretty gorey.

Good point Kai Stromler. Blood on its own itsn't nearly as gross as having blood, bits of body parts, and other fluids flying everywhere. :shudder:

Kite also comes to mind. That movie is disturbing in SO many ways.

Really good point Kai. Though I do like Elfen Lied's style.. it doesn't have the same feel as the older ones.. but it's still a pretty fun bloody/gore fest IMO. ^_^

The most bloodiest anime I've seen to date were Hellsing, Blood The Last Vampire, Blood Reign and Urotsukidoji. I also saw some of the first episode of Blood Shadow. Blood and guts everywhere.

I found 3x3 Eyes to be bloody at certain times. You'll occasionally see a limb dismembered.
