Ehh...enough fanservice, more gore. Can't really judge an anime off of the first episode, but I'm neutral on it so far.

Anyone else keep thinking you're going to hear "PILLS HERE" or some random Keith stories done by Ellis?

Why is that when TMD, CG and Horriblesubs releases weren't. Hope this doesn't happen with the next episode.
I guess they used the AT-X channel's RAWs which aren't censored.

Like i said before, they were censored. I have checked TMD, Commie and CoalGuys releases myself.
They're not entirely uncensored, no; the teacher committing suicde is blacked out and I think some head bashing is left out, but the censored version I'm talking about looks like this:



Completely fucking censored.

that guy who's responsible for the anime adaption of HOTD is an idiot. He missed the whole point of the manga. The main focus should be the zombies,boobs are second! so there'll be a lot of jiggling boobs. I can deal with that, it is realistic, but the panty shot part is just too much. so looks like the ecchi part will be the main focus here. hope it turns out good. would be bad for the first zombie apocalypse anime to suck.

Yeah, right. I haven't checked it before, seems like only teacher's suicide is blacked out, and rest is fine.
So basically, AT-X RAWs will be uncensored. And ep2 aired today, waiting for subs. ^^

maybe it sounded different than in my head, but its not my taste that matters. i dont dislike the ecchi part. as I said it made it realistic lol. but if they add too much ecchi, which they did, it wont turn be a good show for everyone, only for us sick bastards :D
why can't they just stick to the manga. even when they plan to follow the manga until the end they screw it up, like in FMA, they skipped a lot. the only ecchi scenes i'm looking forward to are the massage and orgy.

soo~ the second episode airs today. i'll miss this topic XD

Zombies + Gore + Boobs = Win. I love how at first that girl was acting bitchy to Takashi and then later on when Takashi told her he's going to leave she was like "Ohh please I'll suck your balls don't leave me please." Heh.

Okay so I have to admit that I am impressed by just watching the first episode. I'm looking for next. The animation seems a little bit awkward at some point but it's still bearable. The background animation was awesome and the zombies as well.

Anyways, seems to be that the disease spread throughtout the city. How are they going to get out of the roof top if they're surrounded? Well I won't mind if there's a hot girl with me, lol.

Been waiting for this, and I must say this exceeds my expections, which were already high tbh. Madhouse did an amazing job on this, the bit before the OP was awesome, and action scenes in general were great, though I must say the "calm" scenes have disturbingly few animations to the point of becoming annoying. Makes me wonder if I can ever again be impressed by any other animation: the only studio that compares is Sunrise.

As for the content; boobs and zombies can never get old. More fanservice-y than the manga, a bit distracting at times, but not excessive. The protagonist not being a wimp is more than welcome, you don't often see men who actually do what they have to do in anime. I've read the manga, so nothing's new for me.

And to those who came here to complain: you knew about the fanservice, you knew about the zombies, heck, half the plot is already written in the summary, so why would you watch this if you know you won't like it due to one of these? I know it's ridiculous to deal with people, but every time I see one of them my faith in humanity gets a little lesser.

This show would be much better without all the shitty fanservice.
Seriously. If/when the zombie apocalypse happens, I will be wearing a damn bra. No one wants (painful) bouncy titties when they're trying to kick undead ass.
And when someone's fighting a zombie, I want to see THE FIGHT, not a closeup of the chick's frilly underwear. There are a billion other shows that have that. I'm here for the action, kthx.

THIs.THIS.THIS.

This is "slice-of-zombie_apocalypse" series, covering the chracter lives during the event, their survival, their character development, etc.

People wishing for "lets save the world" and other similar cliches should go look the other way.


They can do NOTHING to "Save" it and the best they can do is to save themselves.. The world will have to fix the problem by itself.

Watched the first episode. Wow! I am excited for this series. The first legit cliched zombie apocalypse anime that I've heard of. Haha.

The cliches is what makes the zombie stuff fun. ^_^
Although, they should ease a bit of the pantie shots and fanservice. It takes away from what it could be.

Anybody think that girl got owned when she abandoned her friend? Haha. That was total ownage. XD

At least they don't have Uiharu in the OP of the first episode.
Their quality's also better, but it's not 720p. CG's release looks like an upscale to me.

Anyway, FUCK YEAH gg is back!

Wow, I didn't expect it to get straight to the zombie bashing. The fan service is kind of stupid but whatever. The synopsis already tells us what the deal is. Even though I could do without it, sex and violence make pretty good bed fellows and it does seem fitting to the series.

I'm on the edge on my seat watching it the whole time, it's crazy! I love it. Can't wait to see how plot goes.

Wow. Great first episode. I think they followed the manga so far fairly well and there were some really cool camera angles in this episode that really hyped up the action scenes. This will be one of those few animes that i actually watch while i read it's manga counterpart instead of just reading the manga.

It was actually very good. OP.ED all good and story was very predictable but still it was entertaining. I was expecting another crap lolicon porn anime because of the OP but it was good. Still those disgusting boob shake and underwear view was disturbing.

Finally starting to get into the new season. This was really entertaining. Fanservice and zombies seem fine by me. It probably won't be be the best story out there, no zombie movie is but zombies are always good for light entertainment and fun. I expected it to be quite entertaining with fast rhythm.
Hell they even put some drama and love there just to mix it. Lets hope it will keep being fun.

It's a freaking zombie anime, it could never be heavily serious anyway. As long as fanservice isn't the main thing driving the story i don't get what the problem is.
If you see her legs only instead of her panties while she hits a zombie will that really change anything? OMG i saw her underwear if it was just her shoes i would still considered my self watching a serious show.


BTW the artist of this manga must be drawing doujins too so fanservice is to be expected. Am saying this because i saw this type of art in some doujins. Anyone remembers his name?

Just saw this episode. Hell yeah, this is a keeper.

Not really an original concept (Dawn of the Dead in a Japanese high school with lots of fanservice) but the energy and gusto with which it was done kept me glued to the screen. Only drawback so far is that the girl is kind of annoying.

Zombie movie type anime - quite interesting

the OP music showing full fan service was a bit off with the theme but still look good to watch

Hisashi is special being able to survive longer than those expected to be dead by now

wash scarey and Sad...and plain AWESOME!
I really liked the action.
I like ecchi all thought its a lil disturbing with gore *gore fetish anyone, lets jerk off while being bitten =0!*

But I didn't mind it o.o
All I can say is that I EEEEKKK'ed, shaked and laughed like a maniac for 25 min *since I always laugh while being scared to shake off the fear... yea I am a scardy cat >_<*
And the ending was kinda sad, Imagine the pain of killing your best friend and the boyfriend of the woman you love.

Some scenes from the anime were cut, like part when you wonder how they got in there or what (it was cut) so reading wouldn't make you wonder but watching makes it more thrilling
