zimno said: Oooooooooooouch! ><  That's not right. O_O Up until the last fight, this was an o.k. episode. I felt like Saeko's back story was thrown in at the last minute. The series didn't really hint at her violent tendencies until now. They could have at least shown her smirking or deriving some joy from the fighting during one of the previous episodes. Then again, "subtle" is the last thing one would describe this show as. |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
There is no doubt in my mind that Saeko and Komuro are an "item" now. While neither the manga or the anime actually show the kiss/sex scene, both of them have Saeko ask Komuro to "take responsibility." It didn't make sense at first (because she doesn't say what for) but I did some research and I guess this is a joke in Japan that is used to basically say, "take responsibility for the baby that may result due to this sexual tension." So even if nothing actually happened, or it was just a kiss, Saeko and Komuro have acknowledge feelings for each other. That clears it up now. |
| I just lost a piece of respect for Takashi. O.o And I never expected him to end up with Saeko! Even though I like her the best, even if she's a sadist. The getting wet from slaying zombies was a bit too much though... |

I can't give exact episode numbers but I remember a few scenes where it did a close-up on her face and she would smirk. It happened more then one. |
QysteiN said: supersayen said: This episode is the definition of perfection, we get: -Boob grab -Zombie kill -Wet girl -Deep moment -Sex -Fan service -Weapon upgrade (from wooden sword to an actual katana) -Jealous pink haired girl -Saeko's weakness > can't kill children zombies -Amphibious vehicule -It was done by Madhouse there are only 2 things missing so it can become a masterpiece: -The scene where Rei gets her head exploded or turn into a zombie then Takashi smashes her head with the shotgun -Hirano Kouta doing his usual pro head shots They didn't have sex : o Before ED plays- Saeko: (Grabs Takashi's hand) "You'll take responsibility, right?" Are there still middle schoolers in this thread? |

Laevantein said: ^Isn't it a good thing that the male lead has a flaw?, it will be more realistic..ugh maybe, though the teacher's boobs is beyond realistic, if it means to save my own live i will do the same, and beside Saeko seems to enjoying it too, to me it's a win-win situation, he nail the girl = he lives, nothing wrong with staying alive even more people will despise him XD Definitely so, I'd do the same if I were in Takashi's shoes, all the more reason if Saeko accepted it. Getting the chance to make out in a zombie apocalypse is like an oasis out of a infernal desert. Furthermore, what's other than sex that a young man and woman should do if left out alone in such a remote room in such dire situations? Plus, I believe Saeko asking Takashi to take responsibility is more like urging him to swallow her dark side and accept her than reminding him of their potential baby? |
We are the United. Even in defeat we stand united. |
| "I accepted it for me to survive, of course"---> for the 1st time, Takashi seemed intriguing. Poor Rei. Kiddie zombies were creepy and the drama was well appreciated. |
 |
| I personally loved this episode, Saeko x Takashi ftw. |

| Two things: 1.) Just because Komuro is saying that he accepted Saeko's "darkness" in order survive does not mean he used her or doesn't like her. I think he liked her regardless. I think he just recognized that he needed Saeko to survive. 2.) gg has already stated that the last translation is a bit rough, so all of this postulating is rather pointless anyways. He even stated that if there was a v2, it would go something like this: "I came to terms with her darkness. Hell… I came to terms with everything that the end threw at me. It goes without saying that I had to in order to live." So unless we have a Japanese expert in the house, let's stop worrying and just enjoy this ridiculous show. |

AlexSadist-sama said: novalis said: So what, to make Saeko at least partially accept her thrill in killing, Takashi has to grab her breast while he delivers his speech? WTF. A major WTF moment. That was stupid as hell. It was so stupid that instead of being in shock, i started laughing like i was watching a comedy. C´mon, wasnt that a bit too much?! they´re surrounded by Zombies, who can kill them at any moment and instead of doing something credible Komuro grabs her boobs?! what comes next? Saeko and Komuro doing sex in a circle of zombies?!get a room guys... Komuros´words it was more like : "Saeko, im gonna squeeze your boobs and make you have an orgasm until you decide to live". first of all, a normal Girl wouldnt react like that, and specially in front of ZOMBIES. God, this could only happen in anime... And they didnt showed their kiss i wonder WHY? WTF? |

| Nureru ! It was a ridiculously over-the-top and epic episode mixed with some very touching scenes and character development also. Probably the best in the series, simply awesome. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| HHHHHNNNNGGGGGG SAEKO!!! *insta-cum* I was ALREADY in love with Busujima-sama. That's it, she's now my biggest character-crush EVER. |
| 頭脳は子供、見た目は大人！ ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ |
| I KNEW IT. SAEKO X TAKASHI. I also still fervently believe this show and manga will end in an all-out orgy between everyone in the group, except of course, for Gun-Boy, who doesn't ever get any. =\ But in any case, loved the episode. I hated the fact that they added the "I'm getting wet" comment, especially since they never implied she got a sexual thrill out of killing people/necrotic ghouls. Then again, why the hell am I complaining? We finally have some character development, despite the lack of any quality or effort put into that development. But it's development. And I was wondering when Saeko would get an actual katana. She's already got a wood sword to take care of now. ;D *COUGH*TAKASHIPENIS*COUGH* Fantastic episode overall, 9 out of 10, due to the shitty character development, but scoring well due to the fact they even bothered with character development. |

 |
| I dunno... i'm actually one of the few ppl who likes rei and takashi better... So this episode wasn't my cup of tea. And wtf was up with the random boob grabbing?.....? |
  |
Aversa said: guwndomino212 said: I think so as well.But i think it was when he kinda confessed[?] to saeko in the tit grabbing scene He was basically confessing in that scene where he grabbed her breasts, the only thing he didn't say was "i love you" but besides that he did a perfect confession. It was a good confession. (Perhaps uneccesarily physical, but what the hell...) And Rei kind of seems like an opportunistic bitch. Hooking up with Rei is only ok in an end-of-the-world scenario. Since she is not yet the last woman on earth, I can hardly blame Takashi for checking out other options. TakashiXSaeko just seems like a better match. |
 |
| I am wet. |

prismheart said: hahahahahahahahah i guess everyone does care the most about that....The fighting was good, but I prefer the boob. Not me ofc o.o = (.)(.) !!!! |
| After he grabbed it, I was like /dead The hell, he goes around grabbing breasts and then gets away with it like nothing happened ._. |
HOTDxD said: ImpalerPT said: I think you people are misunderstanding what he said in the end. When he said he accepted it to survive, he means it in terms of: Accepting everything after the zombie apocalypse, in order to survive. People who don't accept whats happening end up killing themselves or dying in some stupid way, EXAMPLE: That teacher in ep1, that kills himself etc etc. So in order for him to survive he had to accept everything that's happening ( thing he was doing since the zombie apocalypse ), killing people, killing kids, robbing, zombie genocide, and other human people *insert Saeko here* TD;DR he adapted to this new world, else he would not suvive. NOT I nailed her to survive. i don't think thats what is implied. He said it in order to suggest that he is using her.Accepting the zombie apocalypse he has already done with all the shit thats happening. he mentioned nothing about the apocalypse and said it directly while looking at her so yeah... Maybe you should re watch the scene is question, and pay attention to the subtitles, also, it's a metaphor, therefore not literal ...and just to back up, read bellow BushidoMusings said: 2.) gg has already stated that the last translation is a bit rough, so all of this postulating is rather pointless anyways. He even stated that if there was a v2, it would go something like this: "I came to terms with her darkness. Hell… I came to terms with everything that the end threw at me. It goes without saying that I had to in order to live." I take my hat out for you sir. |
| This show even in its most mellow moments is freaking insane. I can't believe a somewhat normal episode devolved into vicious, manipulative breast groping and vaginal fluid secretions from corpse mutilation... oh wait, I've been watching this show for 2 months. Why the hell should I be surprised or appalled by any of this? This was actually one of my favorite episodes though. I liked that there was some decent conversation and less screaming at teammates over what to do in the heat of battle, or who wants to have sex with who. As for all the zombies showing up, I think the wild nasty sex those two had the night before drew the neighboring zombies. If you're going to have sex during a zombie apocalypse you had better make it quiet gentle sex. And make sure you have somebody standing guard, too. Basic zombie apocalypse sex knowledge right there. You people better be paying attention.  |
 |
| Lol, when she said "You will take responsibility, right?" I was like OH MY GOD, HE GOT HER PREGNANT. D: I agree that the Takashi's last line sounded kinda weird, but I don't think he was using her... Simply cause I don't think that he would be such an ass. Also, I'm wet... For Saeko! :3 |
 |
| So, the zombies came in the end because of all the moaning Saeko did all night, right? |

But it didn't really come off like that. For crying out loud, he could have put his arm around her waist, or or even just put his arm across her chest and holding her against him instead of grabbing her breast and squeezing. Plus, that shit can hurt, especially if you have big breasts. It's like grabbing a guy's testicles and squeezing hard. That's not going to stop you trembling! |

MorningGlory said: QysteiN said: It is weirdly necessary, during the flashback, Saeko get herself rape just to make a good reason to fight back.The boobie part was VERY VERY uneccesary.. Other than that very good episode :) Right now,Takashi trying to simulate to same situation again in Takahi's style .Basically, girl only listen to men when they punish them hard enough. during when Takashi harass her boobs. She get excited. Masochist confirm !! Ahem.... If you're right, it is only because the whole ridiculous scenario is something that only a man would think of. But in general, I would not say "girl only listen to men when they punish them hard enough." Instead.... Girls only listen to men when men say what the girl wants them to say. And usually, the idea was planted by the girl in the first place. |

 |
| If they faded out as he's getting Saeko on her back, I might have have been 50-50 on them having sex. But they only faded out as they were kissing. This is just like when people said that Reiji nailed Cal after the bathroom scene XD RyanSaotome said: Yeah, that and Saeko fixing her skirt makes there be 0% chance it wasn't sex. Of course! Since sleeping on a wood temple floor won't wrinkle your skirt or look disoriented in the morning  Come on, guys, really?  unlisted said: The manga looks much more innocent. Though the anime seemed to imply a lot. How they rearranged the scenes make it really weird. It really is! LOL! Rei seriously looks like a bitch in heat in the episode, lmao sukari said: lol there was no "Sex scene". Aw! Let them have their fantasy. No matter how delusional it is, lmao. LadySylvanas said: Plus, I believe Saeko asking Takashi to take responsibility is more like urging him to swallow her dark side and accept her than reminding him of their potential baby? That was exactly it. I don't think HOTD has that kind of depth. Does no one in here read the manga (except for the few who know they didn't have sex and know they didn't even kiss)? Now people are taking what Takashi said as a confession and they are a couple? and Saeko is with child? Wow. Just...WOW. May I have the copy of HOTD you are watching?  Takashi loves Rei, no two ways about it. He was even happy he was going to DIE with her, and embraced her. I hope chapter 12 is animated. |

I think Takashi is just being a pervert of using the Apocalypse as an excuse to grab her boobs .... and I think Saeko luv being harass by Takashi from the very start.She always seduce Takashi whenever she got the chance.I felt jealous pity on Takashi |

| thank god i love saeko i hate rei though who else hates rei?! I do rei=hot annoying b!TCH! who wont shut up..... |
 |
| yep definitely loved it as always and yes that last lines Takeshi also killed it for me at the end :( |
 |
| It takes a really talented production crew to make an anime like no other before it and STILL make it completely fucking cliche. ...and by that, I mean it's the first anime about a zombie invasion. |
| Fuck yes, I wanted Takashi to end up with Saeko. Keikaku doori. |

I didn't think it was anything out of the fan service ordinary for HOTD |

| Oh dear...let me see what the Japanese folks are thinking ^.^ Actually I stop reading after around 30 post, because I felt it is no different than the post in MAL.... xdarkalice said: Exactly, that why she say " get wet!!" ... <case closed>he accepted her feelings just for survive...that's what he says at the end |
MorningGloryAug 30, 2010 7:18 PM
| I kept seeing alternate subtitles in my head when I watched this, like when Takashi was groping her boob it sounded more like "I'll accept your darkness... and your boob in my fist!". I didn't think they'd follow up bullet time breasts with something as absurd so soon lol. Still an enjoyable episode for what it is. NURERU! |
