I read the MAL synposis and knew it was gonna be about zombies. Before the reveal I'd thought that the whole school was safe, and class was still going for the students while outside was the apocalypse, but never would I have thought that everyone was dead except for the 4 of them. Geez, the part where Yuki was "talking to her classmates" broke me. The way her smile was juxtaposed with a and broken, empty classroom chilled me. Man, this episode was great.

dam thats some strong denial on yukis part and I fear for that dog. I just know something bad is going to happen to the dog. I have a feeling this anime is going to be depressing.

Almost the whole thing felt like cute girls doing cute things, but at the end...I felt disturbingly uncomfortable, in a way terrified, not even sure why... Seems great so far.

Hhmmm, I'll bite for now but it kinda just felt like the whole episode was meaningless Moe just for the sake of tricking us into thinking it was gonna be a comfy show. It may have just had a mediocre start but it felt like it was trying so hard just to pull one over on us that it kinda forgot to do anything else.

And as the tags for it are psychological and horror, it doesn't really come as all that much of a surprise with the zombies at the end. It was mildly clever though how they portrayed the imaginary world to explain the real one. Like this MC is in such denial she's rationalized a club that just lives at school when that probably wouldn't fly in real life.

I knew the twist so I wasn't at all surprised, but I felt like the way they revealed was very well done, I liked it.
I can't say I liked the episode, though. I'm just not into cute girls doing cute things except for a few exceptions, so of course the only thing that kept me from dropping was the twist. But since now the truth is revealed, I guess it'll get better in the next episode ! I like the idea of a delusional protagonist in a post-apolacyptic world.
But aside from her interesting psychology, Yuki doesn't seem to be a character I'll be very fond of until some episodes in. I just don't get why she's acting like a toddler, even her delusional aspect doesn't seem to explain that, and that's annoying. I don't have much opinion regarding the other characters for now, though I think I'll like Kurumi, she already seems to be an interesting character.
To summarize, I wasn't fond of this episode but that's just because I don't like the CGDCT genre. I really like the premise and I can't wait to see where the anime will go. (But I guess I should prepare myself for the feels, shouldn't I ?)

Holy crap! It's the zombie apocalypse and she is bat-shit insane! I thought they were cute before, but now this is very interesting. Hopefully better than When They Cry.

I was honestly getting kind of annoyed by this show. Wasn't sure I was going to keep watching beyond the first episode. I forgot the description said something about it not being as it seemed (I didn't read the whole description. I usually don't. I like to be surprised haha)

But then that twist happened and I was like "Ooooh, ok then. Well that's interesting". that explains the name of the show

I thought all those desks in the hallway was just some sort of "storage" area at the end of a hallway. I didn't think anything of it at the time. Just figured that was common in Japan haha

My only questions are:
1. how did it start?
2. are they the only 4 students left? i can't be sure anyone not in the club is actually real at this point. i'm not even sure the club and the girls in it are real...
3. are they completely cut off from the outside world? is there even an outside world left to be cut off from?
4. how does this end? (i obviously don't want this answered now. the show will do that on its own, hopefully)

5/10 pre-reveal
7/10 overall

Let's go

Same here. They spent half of the episode chasing a dog.

Was boring up to the reveal. Hopefully, it stays that way.

Best first episode twist ever put to paper. To those who just finished it, I recommend going through the first episode again. You might pick up on more foreshadowing that you didn't before.
K-Pop? Bias? Nah man, we only know Ai and Ruby Hoshino in this house.

I literally came into this knowing nothing and WHAT!?!?!? THAT WAS SO UNEXPECTED!!!!!!! ZOMBIES!?!?!?!? 

So obviously I understand why they live in school but I wonder why the mc is so delusional, did she see her family die or something and it broke her? Can't wait to find out!

i love this episode. as the episode progresses you get slightly more hints about something being off that you might not even notice and then the "twist".
"whats wrong mii?"

I read the manga ages ago, so I already know how this will play out, more or less.

The thing is, hindsight makes it more interesting. Even before the "reveal", you notice the ominous writing on the chalkboard; the one-sided interaction between the "other people" and anyone except Yuki; the hallways being darkened when the camera pans outside the room the scenes take place in; eating hardtack; the girls being silent or concerned about Yuki when she leaves the room; everyone still being there in the evening; the School Live Club having such a vague objective, etc.

It'd be easy to gloss over that foreshadowing if you went into this only knowing the premise, so it doesn't spoil anything either.

They got me in the first 90%, not gonna lie. I was wondering about the horror tag on this anime, but I assumed it would be like an occult club at school or something with ghosts. It's a full blown zombie apocalypse though in a SoL setting, intriguing.

Love how it has a happy school life intro at the beginning and the whole episode they make it seem like a happy slice of life of cute girls then suddenly that ending changes how you look at it. Then I looked at the genre and I'm like "wtf"

I knew about this show prior to watching and how it wasn't what it initially seemed to be, so I did see some of the clues early in the first episode (the broken glass and the way the other School Live girls sometimes acted), but still wasn't fully expecting the whole twist, the situation they're in and the main girls mindset.
