Unless they brought all that in, which I doubt, or maybe they hadn't found it yet, which I also doubt. I don't see what would be so important to go get at a mall when you've a supermarket right next to you, but it doesn't really matter.So basically the other three girls were already surviving at the school when Yuki came up with that great idea to make a visit to the mall (the other girls wanted to replenish their provisions). Supermarkets are limited too you know? And from what I remember it looked more like a 7/11 than a supermarket. |

| I really liked the direction they did for the ending credits of this episode. Felt very vintage. Like an old Hollywood film. Also damn that garterbelt. |
| Kurumi is a boss with her shovel. Poor Mii-kun, sucks being alone in that situation. And now school trip begins |
 |
| Decision wise this episode was dumb. Why would anyone leave a friend, a safe place and a nice looking CD player just because they were bored of the same room? I guess? Maybe she wanted to die? Idk. Then later in the episode we see 4 of them heading out from the school to Megumi's car to drive around, waste gasoline and put themselves to danger, just because of Yuki wanting an outing. But i did like the whole ''omg there's zombies everywhere! run!'' scene when Miki and Kei are in the mall. Turns out Kurumi can drive too! ED was very beautiful. +rep edit: Whoops! I missed those 3-4 sentences where they said they wanted some stuff that they ''couldn't get around here'' |

Mainly because I doubt they made that many trips to the mall between the time they found Miki and the present, when they visited the supermarket for the first place, and the car doesn't seem like it'd hold anywhere near enough for them to carry all the stuff that was there (not to mention they would go through the trouble of neatly placing these supplies in a storage far away from their location). Supermarkets might not have an infinite stock but if they still have stock I don't see a reason to get more things in this situation, it's like Miki's friend, you aren't happy with the food and shelter you have? Have fun getting eaten. |
 |
| Another solid episode from the AOTS, I'm too damn tempted to read the manga's but i'll wait. next episode is the conclusion of Miki's backstory. Hopefully it will be as good as this one. That OST at the end was beautiful, i need it right now |

Have fun getting eaten. The anime changes some scene up. In the manga, Miki wasn't with them yet when they went to take food from the school store. After they ran out of food stock they went to the mall and found miki. In the anime it's a little harder since it's jumbled up. I guess they just took some provision from the mall, went back to school, and then put some food in the school store and went back when they needed it with miki. |
| That ED song! Gave the ending The proper feel for this episode. Loved it! Can't wait for next week! |
llcruz said: Kei is fucking stupid, who the fuck goes outside in a zombie apocalypse. I know she is just a child but still... don't like her at all. I dunno. It looks like they've stayed in that room for days, possibly even weeks. Waiting only makes sense if you expect the zombies to die out after a while or help to arrive eventually. But the amount of zombies didn't seem to decrease, and considering she couldn't even get a radio signal the prospects of outside help didn't seem too great either. Staying for a while longer until the supplies run out might have been a good idea, but I'd imagine being confined to one room over a long time would wear you down quite a bit, so that might sound easier than it is. She eventually ran out of patience and probably figured that while they're still sane (and before a zombie finally manages to break down that door) they'd be better off using an opportunity to get out of there and try to get somewhere else. Possibly find other survivors, leave the city somehow, anything. All things considered, going outside doesn't sound all that stupid to me tbh, the only thing that *was* indeed very stupid was doing it alone. CookingPriest said: L-Ryoshi said: Did she now? I doubt it.Kurumi directly answered her when she said she hadn't driven in a while The way I see it the car was brought up and Kurumi volunteered to drive. The Megunee hallucination just happened to talk in between about how she cant drive. Yep, I agree. They had just decided on using Megu-nee's car, upon which Kurumi decides "Kay, guess I'll drive then." She also says it to Rii, ignoring Megu-nee who is standing on the opposite end of the room. So it doesn't look like she replied to her, their dialogue just so happens to coincide. On an unrelated note, dat ED song. |
| Great episode. Kurumi skills in self-defence are really good. Kei... so this is the name of that girl from opening. "I prefer gamepads to stering wheel controlers" - xD Aridus said: Decision wise this episode was dumb. Why would anyone leave a friend, a safe place and a nice looking CD player just because they were bored of the same room? In despair situations people try to find a hope for all costs. She just have a hope that she would find some place where she could be safe. Stupid? Yes, but people do many stupid, illogical things in such situations. |
| Kei made the right choice in leaving Miki as we know they would eventually rot in that place. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
juicykitten95 said: SweetCoconut said: Nice episode focused to Miki and her friend. Well i think there will be more explanations later on because how in the world Megumi was on the car. you still dont get it ? Yes, i get it. Its just this is the anime we're talking about here |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
AnnaSartin said: Finally we get to see how Miki and Taroumaru join the "School Living Club". ^_^ Sad about Kei, gonna assume she fell since she didn't join the group. Kind of scared me when Taroumaru got blood on him and the old lady became a zombie. I was afraid she attacked him but I guess he just got her blood on him. Kurumi is a badass bitch. At this point I'm thinking there's nothing this chick can't do as long as she's got her trusty shovel! Kurumi + Shovel-kun forever! In that case I would expect zombie Kei to replace normal Kei in future OPs, following the trend of updating it with each revelation |

| Kurumi is so badass! o: I guess Yuuri's flashback will be next(or both hers and Miki's?). |
| Cool episode Kurumi was badass awesome. |
| Great episode, this time showed a little about Miki before it join the others, I believe in the truth that served as a preparation for the encounter them, but had enough sentimentality and also showed how Kurumi is badass, I look forward to see what these girls will do .. |
  |
| We should call Kurumi Badassmi or something like that. XD |

| This episode felt so short! And, as a person who is not reading the manga, I'm really intrigued about why Teroumaru doesn't like Mikki even though he was fine with her at the very beginning. Well, I can't wait for next week! |
| People complaining about stupid things like: "Why did Kei leave Miki? Does she want to die?" "Why did they go to the mall when they have a supermarket in the school?" 1st. Damn, i have to complain about the adaptation of this episode because Kei's reason was Explicit, and here wasn't explicit but the sense was "Do you call this living? In a room? We'll get crazy", this was the reason. I would have done the same, i'd probably be dead but who cares, i'd prefer to try to find Help by myself outside than waiting for help when you know it will never come. I have to say that Miki has been more stupid in that case, she would be dead because of no Food ecc... If Yuki, yuuri and kurumi found she later ecc...was for pure case so the probability of waiting for help in an abandoned mall with zombies are really really low. Kei's decision is intelligent if you see it in this point of view. 2nd. In the manga the reason was because the Supermarket in the school had few food so they had to go outside and find food by themselves. In the anime is not explicit probably. If Kurumi and Yuuri decided to go outside is because maybe they wanted "to change air" and obviously for food/clothes ecc... L-Ryoshi said: By the way, can someone spoil me on this part, was Megu-nee already dead in this flashback? I know that she's just a support mechanism in Yuki's head in present times, but there were certain scenes in this flashback that makes me wonder if she was still here, especially since Kurumi directly answered her when she said she hadn't driven in a while, instead of reacting to something Yuki said. Wthout spoilering In the flashback (wich isn't a flashback in the manga) you already knew if Megu-nee was Dead or Alive. I am really really sorry about my english, hope you guys got what i wanted to say. They skipped some chapters. |

She shouted at him when he was barking and scared him. From my experience, scare a puppy once and they NEVER forget |

| I'm guessing that Kei thought that they would eventually rot in that place and wanted to find another place. Still it's pretty stupid to leave your friend just like that though. Otherwise a setup episode for the next one. |
| When Miki yelled at the doge my heart broke :'( Don't be mad her doge, she was just stressed out :'( poor everybody :'( |

Xenocrisi said: I have to say that Miki has been more stupid in that case, she would be dead because of no Food ecc... Have you ever read at least a single instruction pamphlet on how to stay alive during some sort of disaster? Number 1: stay somewhere safe Like, holy fuck, going out is the single most stupid thing you can do in such a time. Would you go look for help during a radiation outbreak or something? NO! You stay at home and tape all the fucking windows! - Safety! During a tornado or huge storm you take shelter. During an earthquake you go out to a place where nothing can fall on you, a.k.a. SAFETY. During a flood you find a high place to stay until someone come picks you up, so you don't fucking drown in the lower levels. How do you call that? Safety! I think you get my point. -- I have already come to terms that the anime just takes it's own direction and while it still bothers me a bit, I have to say that if I view the anime as something without a source (like, if I imagine that there was no manga and the anime is an original production), I think it is doing quite well. This episode was quite nice, the SoL was down to a minimum and even though I ADORE the original mall chapter, the scene was pretty well made. While the manga gave it a more horror vibe imo, the way it was portrayed in the anime gave it a heavier, more 'lonely' feeling. I wish it didn't end with a cliffhanger like it did, but still, really really great episode. When I saw Taromaru's owner, I began whimpering, cuz she looks like such a sweet old lady and I adore nice old people. They're so cute ; _ ; Great way to include the dog into the whole thing, too. About the Kurumi and her driving line, the subs I watched had her say "Why don't I drive then" and I think it works off as a standalone phrase too. oh, and the only thing that kinda annoyed me is how Miki didn't bother chasing Kei, but she did that for the dog. Not really something I would do. I mean, I'd probably chase my friend and the dog...She did call Kei "an important friend" so what fucking gives.. :/ |
 <3? |
| I'm okay with how this anime adapted the manga so far. It is only 12 episodes with a manga that has a few chapters to work with. The ending theme was a nice touch. |
 |
| So they are splitting this into two eps? Wonder where Taroumaru went and how they met each other. Also, this explains why Miki has different uniform. But why to return to school when they have a car? Out of gas? Why to go out in the first place, that was helluva dangerous. I hope they just went for supplies. Wonder what happened to Kei... but judging by the ED that was black and white (good song), they never met each other again. One thing seriously bothers me though... where the heck did Yuki found those Megu-nee's car keys? Aaah, too many questions! >_< |
| If only they could make a proper zombie anime without the stupid excessive fan service like High School of the Dead and no lolis as MC characters like this show. Yuki is insufferable. Is she ever going to snap out of her delusions or is she forever hur dur I don't see no zombies. |

mwsmws22 said: Oh wow. Amazing. Thanks. |
| SO basically this entire episode was a flashback about the start of the incident through Miki's eyes, And how the group decided to go to the mall (where they will subsequently meet her). I've Been wondering who this one Girl that appeared in the OP was. Now i know it was a Friend(?) of Miki. whether she is still alive or not is yet to be seen(in the present with the full group), i'd imagine she isn't though. So....i noticed Miki wears Garterhose...(completely random thing i noticed hmm) I didn't see anything new with the OP this times. Unless it was something minor or they didn't change anything at all. I'm upset that it took me 4 episode though to realize Miki is also reading a book by Stephen King... |
| Argue? Nah Too lazy For That... Are You Ready!~Gulcasa |
| As someone who lives in the "Circle of Fire" and lives in a city with lots of incidents, I find a lot of inconsistencies when it comes to safety in this episode. People try to evacuate the building, but they try to use the escalator and then the elevator? Those are the LEAST safety in ANY emergency. They should have used the stairs, but probably they would still get in problems, because zombies. Kei and Miki are taking shelter in the mall room and there is no sign of help coming, so the question arises: going out and look for help themselves or stay a bit longer in case rescue comes? Both cases have high levels of risk and here is my problem: Both girls decided on a path, and they even explained their reasons, but they didn't say clearly: "Please, stay with me!"/"Please, come outside with me!". I feel like the confiment time was too rushed to really feel the girl's tension building up, so in the end, both decisions looked too ridiculous, instead of seeing them as a desperate attempt to find safety. Miki was frightened to be alone, so Taroumaru apparently leaving was the last straw for her, we'll see what happens next week. Now, may I ask how is it that in this 4 episodes, none of the girls attempted to use the internet? So far, Megu nee was the only one to have checked it when the zombies attacked the school. Then, in episode 2, Kurumi finds the zombie with the cellphone, but it probably had run out of battery. Still, one of the girls should have a cellphone or smartphone with working internet? Or they could use Megu nee's? |
| Fairly certain that Miki's friend is now dead. Still it is sort of sad to see. Kurumi is a beast! |

Also, I believe the school should have computers...unless the room that has them is trashed, ofc... Which would be very convenient :D |

| This episode was a little all over the place for me. At least we get to see where Taroumaru came from (and perhaps why he doesn't like Miki). |

My main complaints about it come from the Kei section, where I honestly felt no urgency about the apocalypse because they just kept jumping from safe place to safe place. I was especially expecting something more from when they were supposedly hiding in the dressing room, but it just jumped to them in a random room in the mall...completely safe and having all the supplies necessary to survive? Not that I didn't like the episode (love the scene where Miki screams at Taroumaru), but it seemed to me they were jumping to all the important "progress" bits without the build up. |
| Why was this ep so short ;_; really felt like only 10 minutes or something... I bet Wrong is having a field day with this episode *ehm* Kurumi, so badass, Mario Kart was enough for her to drive. As usual, Good episode, and brings more stuff to light, but also more Questions. I guess Megu-nee just ''teleported'' into the car.... and why she let a minor drive in the first place... I am confused xD Mod Edit: Possible spoiler tagged And dat ED. |
