Anyways, I heard some of my friends saying that it was pretty decent so I was just wondering if its any good? I assume you're referring to One Piece? I haven't seen that part myself, but I've read about it. I heard that they wanted to do a "Thriller" rip-off, but had to do a disco dance number instead. I didn't know that. I only watched the ovation for 'Corpse Party,' I've seen parts of the game, and I have read a few of the manga. The anime is very short: only four episodes, I believe. Corpse Party: Musume is really messed up. Gee, a couple of kids sit in a classroom and tell ghost stories. They do some sort of game where each of them grab a piece of a paper doll, do some chanting and tear it apart. The ritual is supposed to bring good luck, but if done wrong; all Hell breaks loose.

There are differing versions of it. In version, the kids get sent to an elementary school, where a bunch of scary stuff went down. The main anatongist of the series is a girl with messy, black hair and wearing a raggy, red dress named Sachiko. In most adaptations I've seen of it, she was a five-year-old girl that was the daughter of the school's nurse (the elementary school's name is Heavenly Host). Sachiko's mother got raped by the school principal and after that he threw her down the stairs, so she wouldn't report him. Little Sachiko noticed the whole event and the principal ended up killing her through choking. He discarded her body in the school basement and the school continued on as nothing had happened.

Sachiko's mother laid a curse on the principal and his descendants, which eventually lead to Heavenly Host closing it's doors and getting condemned for demolition. That thing that happened was a murder. Three kids: a boy and two girls were kidnapped by the principal's son, who worked at Heavenly Host as a teacher. He supposedly ended up killing all three of the kids by binding them first and cutting out their tongues, which is something that his father had also did to Sachiko's corpse years earlier.

The principal was pretty much the scapegoat for the murders and the real culprit, the vengeful of Sachiko got away. Heavenly Host ended up getting closed and the principal ended up committing suicide by jumping off the school's roof before demolition took place. His son wound up at a mental institute or something close to that. I think the staff released him and he like his dad also committed suicide, but his death was by hanging himself in the school's basement, where Sachiko is buried.

In Musume, however, Sachiko's mother doesn't die and Sachiko isn't even a little kid. She's actually a teenager and Heavenly Host isn't an elementary school; it's an all girl's school. Sachiko is pretty much a loner at the school, she doesn't really have any friends. The teacher, who isn't the principal's son in this version is liked by all the students and staff. He's actually a pedophile and he ends up molesting Sachiko, who would later jump from the school to her death. The teacher pretty much said, "No one will believe you!  Besides, who'll listen to a loser like you!" something along those lines when he was molesting her.

Sachiko's suicide was covered up by the school's principal and the teacher continued on with his job. The principal's granddaughter, Yuika came over to visit. She had a real love of playing with bugs. Sachiko offered to play with the girl and things ended up horribly. Yuika's grandfather was a pedophile as well and he just came in to play dress up with his grandkid, since it was his excuse of doing you know what to her. Sachiko pretended to be Yuika, he found out about that and pleaded to see his granddaughter. Sachiko showed him the little girl's corpse; she had a large stick protruding from her left eye. The principal then gets killed by the vengeful teenaged spirit and now he resides in the other dimension of the school. The teacher that was responsible for Sachiko's death, well nobody knows what happened to him. Also, Sachiko cursed the principal's family.

So, now, these kids get stuck at this distorted dimension of the school and have to find a way out.
