| I didn't even see that much ecchi element in this... Actually nvm I just remembered all the shower and bathing scenes. This had a lot more to offer in it's content than almost every other harem series i have seen since Kore wa Zombie desu Ka? in 2010 or so. Hell, the series didn't even end up in a unresolve harem situation. The love dispute(with Rinko) was resolved with a firm conclusion and nothing bullshitty. Unlike some shows that solely use it's story elements as an excuse for having a harem *COUGH INFINITE STRATOS COUGH DATE A LIVE COUGH* Sankarea's story ACTUALLY had a realistic conclusion suiting it's premise and followed through the consequences of loving something that was not meant to be. The characters grew, Chihiro's viewpoint on zombies changed throughout the series after actually meeting a zombie girl, so there's development there. God... This was actually really good. At least I can appreciate it. Darlene was so beautiful too as well as playing the mysterious role, which just increased my appreciation for this series threefold. So all in all... this series probably had the most content out of a harem series I have seen. Definitely top of my list in recommending to others who have been tired from the constant stream of harem-ecchi. |

Rachmaninow said: Apparently the manga's ending even earlier. Next month, to be more precise (which should be chapter 56; 55 coming out this month). http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-08-08/sankarea-zombie-romantic-comedy-manga-end-slated-for-next-month/.77414 Well... I hope for asatisfying conclusion, it was pretty well paced for a conclusion. |

Rachmaninow said: I'm not hoping for a happy end myself anymore. Two chapters left with this month's to wrap up the story in a satisfying manner. Now, what satisfying might mean in this context is up to the respective individual. Me, I want the end to fit the story flow, no matter how brutal it could end up being. I am happy for an ending that can teach some sort of lesson. I am delighted that the author, foregoing the more popular slice of life route, instead chose to write a story enticed with details. Right now, Rea honestly has to die. There are no gods, there is no magic. Rea's life should be put out... But who to end up with? Darin! |

The fact that she's a zombie is illogical in itself, so the the absence of a god, of magic or whatever you want to add to it, makes no difference. As of now, the series can take any turn. |

Have you been paying attention at all in this series(or you're just arguing for the sake of it)? That may be true if the series was freshly starting when nothing was clear, but when the whole ZOMA Darin aspect was revealed, and Jogorou's past, a set of rules is established. The series made it very clear in the direction it was heading and what sort of zombies these are, and what sort of fate Rea was to have. Granted, the author CAN do whatever he wants, in any series the author to do anything at any point. But to do that will destroy the integrity of the whole series, the mood portrayed, and turn it into an "asspull." Might as well as say any fiction, since they use impossible mechanics, is illogical and thus anything can happen. |

Not that I am leaning toward that end to be honest. We'll see how it turns out anyway, not much is left. |

But all the hint(as the OP once pointed out, "the last time I could have saved her was before she fell off the cliff" could mean the author has this better planned than we have thought) points to a non-asspull ending. We have the incest resolved-ish, and we have a replacement love interest. I am personally just happy that Darin might win... Ahhh |
