first of all, WTF (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
I read most of the manga that was updated so I didn't know THAT HE WOULD EVENTUALLY DIE. LIKE IN THE THIRD EPISODE IN.

no but ssrsly, I was thinking he'd be a character that would stick around until the end of the series protecting Ai and doing cute daddy shit BUT ISN'T IT A BIT TOO SOON TO KILL OFF THIS PRECIOUS BBY ( TДT)

this episode was sad and unexpected, it from 'awwwwwwwwwwwwwww' and 'yesssssssssssss' to really quickly 'WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO'


Forgive me for whining and being a bit dumb, but I still don't understand how he died though. Isn't he Humphnie Humbert the mechanical toy that NEVER DIED. Why didn't he bounce back to life like he usually did after he closed his eyes? (excluding the fact he did kinda did come back to life as a zambie[actually, how could they even tell?]) But WHY though? Was it because in some sort of happy sappy twist of fate God heard his wish and granted it for the hell of it? Or was it because Ai's appearance and information finally made him happy enough to fulfill his life?




YES. EVERYTHING YOU SAY HERE. Actaully, this was so interesting and so good! MY feelings is just going around on a roller coaster and right now its rock bottom T________T
It was all going good! Kizuna Gets kidnapped and tortured, Ai finds out that he IS her dad, goes saves him with the whole gang, finds daughter DIES ACTUAL death, goes on 1 day as zombie/dead then gets burred by his her daughter??! Throughtout the whole last 10 minutes im sitting here going "OMG YUS, GOGOOGOG.. WAIT NOOOOOO, YUSSS!!! NO WHAT,.. WHAT? NOOOO T__T
my feels: isejfskhg'skghs'lgldn *flips screen T_________T
So much to say but im just crying here, this type of ending wouldve been the BEST if it was the LAST episode.
I dont get why he suddenly wasnt imortal anymore, yeah he found his daughter and found out his wife died but he did still want to live at the end!! One day with Ai.
Really? REALLY?
ok bye T__T *sobs in corner

I had exactly the same thought but it doesn't stop me from wishing he's somehow still alive. Although given how grim this show is he'll likely stay dead, lol.

That was quite unexpected actually, for me that was. The part that he was the father was obvious, but dying in the third episode? Damn. I can't wait to see what sort of turn this anime will take instead.

Wow, he is more than half of the reason I am watching this anime.
I was seriously expecting them journeying for the whole season and meeting all those characters in the OP.

Why did that god take away Humbart's immortality right when he discovered his daughter? Abandon the world my ass. That god is a major troll.
-Oh you want immortality? Here, and I am also leaving the world and 'no one will be born'.
-Aw, you realize that you will be all alone eventually? Don't want immortality no more? Nop, no take back.
-Want happy family? Nop! your wife left you.
-So, you fallen into despair and no hope of every dying happily? I am getting bored.
-Here, you discovered you long lost daughter, who I gave special exception be born! I planned this hope for you 13 years ago. :)
-NOP! I taking back the immortality! You Died :D
-Get buried by your own daughter!! :D "MonoKuma laugh"



I agree. The God in this show a major troll.

Poor Kizuna trolled by God till he was buried beside his own wife.

So he loses memory bit by bit whenever he gets killed. Even without noticing himself, she met his daughter. Kizuna Basting is his real name? A group who caught him captive... one of them is by Yoshino-san?? With his friend and the Hakamori lady, she went to save him, but had to do her Hakamori job on him at the end... so sad.

Hakamori's real job is to get those already dead to go to heaven (including those villagers)?? Her travel goes on and meets new characters.


Astin, not Basting.

Well fuck. So much for being immortal what the hell?

I'm a little disappointed in all honesty. A 3 episode OVA would be good enough for this series then >.>...

How is he suppose to remain as a main if he's dead?


agreed. Ai and Humpnie are the only 2 main characters, and one of them died in the third episode. I'm hoping he will revive somehow, just not in an evil way like how anime tend to create.

This episode was great! Perhaps it might be possible that he died because he told his real name? I mean before dying he said he never told his real name to anyone, not even to his wife. (o . o )

You know, I think Hampnie's death might make a lot more sense in the LN. Given the fact that certain storyline mechanics can't be explained without narration, I suppose it'd be rather easy to misunderstand what's going on in an anime. But I do have a theory on what happened based on what has been explained in his monologue. My guess is that Hampnie's actual ability isn't really immortality, but to recover from fatal injuries that would otherwise render people 'immobile'. It's like with everyone else, one can not die unless buried by a grave keeper. Perhaps Hampnie had the choice to die whenever he wanted to, but he wouldn't do so until his wishes were granted; he did state that he wanted to die happy.

The only thing that I still can't fully grasp is how the process of death occurs. Is it possible to 'die' just by being buried by a grave keeper while still able to move? I could assume that it is, but I would prefer a little more detail on how grave keeper burials work. Might be covered in greater detail in the LN.

Anyways, the level of emotion in this episode was fantastic. I bawled up completely at the end. ;_;

Man, I was not expecting Humpnie to die so early in the show, it must be really hurt to have to bury your own father especially after all that's happened. ;_;

So far, I'm really starting to like this show, and I hope things keep picking up from there, so I can't wait for next week.

You know, this isn't the first anime to completely kill off a main character really early on. And a main character doesn't necessarily have to be there for the majority of the anime either, he/she just needs to play a specific kind of role in the storyline.

I think it had to do with his happiness. Like his immortality was tied to his desire to die a happy man, and once he realized Ai was his daughter and that she'd grieve him when he was gone, his life ran out... Something like that, anyway.

So much for the immortality he had...he was shot, tortured, he blew himself up but he died because the "wish" he wanted came true? I would prefer if he stayed alive and immortal.

Anyway he was the reason why i decided to continue watching this instead of dropping it not so sure now. He's too cool i wish he was the main instead of the loli girl.

this is everything i wanted to say. i was so sure he would stay until the end or at least i didn't expect him to die in the fucking third episode. fuuuu.
i also think he died because his wish came true. he wanted to die happily, and finding his daughter and finally figuring out what happened to his hana made him happy. which is fucking cruel, actually.

How the fuck do they tell if he came back to life via his ability to be immortal or as a zombie? I mean, everyone is a zombie if they die and aren't buried by gravekeepers so I guess it would be a really common occurrence. How could they tell that Astin isn't revived via his own immortality?

Also, why did he absolutely HAVE to rid Ai's village of the undead? I mean, they are acting perfectly normal and aren't hurting anyone at all. In fact, they were just trying to preserve their way of life and protect Ai from the horrible truth. It can't be that harmful to do that can it? It's not like they're all mindless zombies. They might be reanimated corpses but they are living a proper peaceful life, so to speak. Same goes for Ai burying Astin. I don't see a REASON to bury Astin at all, he didn't lose his mind and turn into a crazy zombie after his revival. Only because Astin hates the dead and thus hates being a zombie so he's A-OK with truly dying? Even after he's found his own daughter after so many years???

He did it to save her life (she would have been in great danger otherwise). Hampnie had every good reason to die. I thought those father-daughter moments were really touching (the following burial was much more touching as a result of that as well).

Ughhhh nooo I cannn't. I love this anime way too much. Kizuna is a great daddy. He hated the dead but he stayed for one day just to make memories with Ai. I can't even. Someone help.

If the "next episode"-preview hadnt been there i nearly would have thoght that the anime is over.
wow that Hampnie Hambart guy is stupid.. needs 3 epsodes to find out that Ai looks EXACTLY like his lover.. just wow
and then the loli pwns like shit.. this anime becomes more and more generic..
end of episode was way to overdramatic.. as if i would care about these characters until that point ( well Hampnie was cool and likeable in the first 2 episodes but they kinda destroyed him in the third one)
