I never noticed this until now, but that teacher (the male one) is like the male manifestation of Rei.
Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone

WHAT!? THEY CUT OUT THE REST OF THE ORGY BUS SCENE!? D:
Besides that, there wasn't much action. But now almost the entire world is in a state of Mutual Assured Destruction Mode... ><

That dam teacher got what he deserved.
Getting kicked out of safety i hope he gets mutilated next episode!!

It seems like the governments are going for Massive All out Destruction and started nuking all over the place.
And as appeared at the start some people are still in denial about the walking death, it's just Human emotion tho.
With some things even if it appears right in front of them they still won't believe it, because of fear.

So... were going to end a zombie anime with nukes...?

Am I the only one who sometimes forgets that this is a zombie anime because... oh, I don't know... the lack of zombies?!

I doubt it will end with nukes.
First of all what is there to gain from nuking everything?
All you would be doing be that is commit genocide make areas completely useless and even effect people with radiation decease for several generations to come.
It would also mean that every place of economical importance would be destroyed as the metropoles would be the first places to get nuked.
Then again people make strange dissections in times of distress, even doing things as futile as nuking everything to dust.

The second thing is that the manga is still going and that the story in the anime is still incomplete.
And even tho it's still speculation as it looks now there is a big chance of a second season.

Well it seems like we dont have to worry about Mr. Shido anymore.

Though I do gotta feel bad for him. I mean it seems the only thing Rei was pissed off about him was that he failed her? I mean I know thats a pretty big thing....but that being something to actually make a decision of whether to kill him or not? That seems kinda harsh. I mean I guess we are to assume Mr. Shido sensei was corrupt as a teacher (Not including the obvious personality he has).....but considering how his father was evil.....and he hated his father for that.....doesnt that mean something? To me it seemed like all the time before he got settled in as a teacher.....he was a normal person who had a sad past?
And what the hell is up with sending all the students that he came with back? Like hell they actually have *Evil* in them. I liked Takagi's father....but now I despise him for doing that. Now I know that Shido-sensei is practically evil. I mean the way he crushed that 1 student before he got on the bus.....and not letting that other student back on the bus.....but Rei and the gang never saw that. The gang only thought he was evil due to Rei saying so. And Rei was going to commit murder on just that she got held back 1 year? Oh and making her father cry? Apparently if someone makes your father who never cries cry...and holds you back one year....its punishable by death? HELL even the father knew Shido-sensei's father....so couldnt that ALSO mean he coulda been corrupt?

I guess Im more upset that the students in the bus had to leave. I mean thats fucked up

But I guess the biggest shocker is that all of the military bases and major cities are going to be blown to bits by nukes? Armageddon? Oh boy. I really dont see how the hell they are going to wrap this up with 1 episode. I mean are they even going to be able to find Komuros parents? I mean it seems like the final episode might just end on an incredibly random note.

Saeko was saying how shes not really her upper classman (Sempai or is it Senpai), Rei is only in a lower grade because she was wrongfully held back a year by Shido-sensei. Rei was bothered by that whole event and cut Saeko off because she doesn't like to think about it.

@Superluccix saying he/she is confused as to why Rei is so agnry at Shido thinking Shido's "crime" only affected her.

Rei was more angry at the trouble Shido caused her father by doing that, she commented on how he apologized to her while crying and that pissed her off. So, it could be seen as legitimate anger, or a slight overreaction.

Yea it was a mix of both. But for those reasons alone be enough to kill Shido-sensei? I mean yes he is evil indeed....but considering Rei is just going by those 2 reasons....she thinks killing him would be the right thing to do? Hell even the father told her to kill him.

But the biggest thing Im mad about is how the father refused to take the students. Like hell they have been tainted. They are scared! Even more-so than Takeshi's gang since they can't fight at all

Now the sex bus in new adventures!!Let's watch our comrade get eaten and clap our hands!!! That Shido guy is so manipulative.What kind of brainwashing did he perform in order to turn the students into sexually addicted sadists????
Anyway, whatever Shido's past might have been, there is no way i can feel sorry for him or change my opinion of him.I'm so glad Saya's father kicked him out of the masnion..

Where are these missiles headed to?Don't tell me that they are planning to destroy the countries?Because if those guys went through all that just to get blown up in the end I don't know how I will feel.

So next episode is the last??I hope it has a decent ending..

OK, First off... LMAO at everyone waiting all season for the orgy bus and it only lasted 1 minute and mainly was the same pictures that were in the manga.

The bus drove away safely


With the firing of the EMP's at the end I can pretty much tell where this season is going to end up.

Seems like they've spent too much time with char development in the last 2 shows to not have a second season, the lack of zombies is getting anoying.

With rei keep in mind how much honor in valued in this culture, some men would have killed themselves for the shame they brought upon rei. This is why she is so pissed because they shamed her and her father.

I'm surprised that the teacher did so little. I thought he would screw things up in some way. Also, I was very curious to how they would end this series in a single episode remaining, but I guess missiles can do the trick pretty quickly.

"Its Armageddon...."
Highlights of today EP:

Orgybus scenes: Okay, they kinda removed the part with the kid being thrown out. But still, it was disturbing >.>
The Scenes with the woman at the begining: Damn, Hirano should've just shot her.....
Shidou Scenes: Well, his fate and that of the bus is left ambiguous, either way, i'm sure he died after the EMP blast so whatever.
Takagi's Badass Father scenes: This guy has my respect for throwing Shidou out like that. Really.
ED Song: First full english ED we have in the series. Can't wait for the full version that comes out on Sep 22nd.

Overall Score: 4.5/5

Next EP: Armageddon O_O

Decent ep. Not many zombies but some few interesting things character wise.

Harsh moment of the episode: Sending out all the students back out with Shido. I mean talk about unfair, they shouldn't be blamed for his actions! And I must admit I expected Shido to do a Dead Set:

I'm glad Shido got kicked out and even more glad that his wh*re army got kicked out as well. The ending song was great. But is this supposed to be a zombie-killing anime or what ? .. .this ep was only full of stupid drama . And Rei is angry on Shido cause he made her father cry ? Does she really need a reason to hate someone as annoying as him ?

OK...
what is so hard to understand about Rei being upset that her father cried.
Her father is a policeman, and very emotionally strong. And in all of her life she never saw him shed a tear. But when she was held back a year, (which was done to teach her father a lesson about the power of the Shidou family.) he cried as he apologized to her for having to be punished because of him.

Side note, none of the main character knew what happened on the bus after they left or Rei of thought he was worthy of killing.

Okay, I really don't like the teacher or anything, but does anyone else think Rei is slightly overreacting? I mean yeah; he's a jerk making the girls in that bus do weird things and kicking that guy in the face in one of the first episodes, but all Rei blames him for is making her repeat a year of highschool. It must suck when a teacher makes you do that, but to go so far as to kill him for it... I don't know... A bit exaggerated imo...

ok, I must say I'm disappointed. Ep 12 seems to be end not only of the season, but the whole serie too. Shame, I was hoping there will be season 2 (12 episodes is way too few!). But now I don't expect it to come (unless they will make Highschool of the Dead post-apocalyptic anime about zombies). What a pity.
