Hemorrhoids? It was Hilarious, but disappointing, since the drama is lost.

The split season has not been good either, it has cooled the atmosphere and in comedy, it is what is least needed.


4/10

Irregular season

ngl I didn't like that cop-out with Akira's dad... but overall it was a nice show to escape to and I enjoy it as it is! I wish the characters were better written or worth investing into, especially the 'antagonists' in the last 3 episodes.

I'm not sure if the show was trying to get us to sympathize with Higarashi... but if so they were sorely mistaken. I would only even half sympathize with him had life actually been unfair to him or he was brutally bullied, but no he's just a piece of shit completely on his own. Not a very satisfying death but I'm glad he did at least die. I was getting worried he was actually going to join the crew for a second.

Somewhat solid finale even though it was played super safe for practically everyone in the village. Said village got retaken somehow, Akira's father's health condition was only used for a stupid gag and it seems only 5-6 nobodies died alongside 3 of the losers this arc considered as "antagonists". Sex-offender-looking dude only got beaten up, apparently.

Overall, disappointing series after a very promising first episode. I seriously have no idea how this work qualifies as a Seinen when it's filled with the most Shounen-ish tropes known to man. Super annoying/goody-two-shoes MC, middle-school level comedy, tons of plot conveniences to favor MC's group, one-dimensional antagonists, awful transitions from seriousness to comedy, nonsensical writing, etc.

4/10 - Only redeemable aspects being the visuals and animation from the early episodes. Also Shizuka and Beatrix, not gonna lie ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Thought this was a great series. Would like a second season, but thankfully this works completely as a true and satisfying finale as well.

I will say though, I really did not care for the rapist being the one member of the bad guys crew to live. Given his backstory he was arguably a bigger piece of shit than even Higarashi. The decision to have that guy be the only one to escape comeuppance was actually distracting me during the entire ending.

The NEET just wanting to swim in the public pool with his friends hit a little too close to home I think. The show had some really great politics and themes so I'd definitely watch a second season.

Despite the production issues this was still an incredibly strong first anime from a new studio, and I think they delivered a solid ending if it doesn't end up getting a sequel.

A very good and fun isekai that really motivated me. It reminded me that we have one life, and spending it doing something you hate is stupid. You need to do what you want, so that later you won’t feel ashamed and annoyed.

So as it turns out dipshit NEET actually was an introvert who in his jealousy turned out like this? I don't know man, seems like a drastic change to me.

Anyways, this was a really good anime that would have probably been better had it come out with proper management. I can't stress enough how ironic the real life situation was considering the subject matter and I can understand how many people got put off by it. Slowly we're getting more and more delays in anime as animators are not treated as they deserve to be. Fix up your shit Japan.

About the show itself, this really was about dreams, about wishes, about things to do before kicking the bucket. Everyone has them and they go about them in different ways but sometimes along the way they deviate for some reason or another. Here we are able to see different perspectives about this and delve into what's probably the most positive zombie apocalypse depiction I've witnessed so far in media.

Well, at the very least what was adapted is in really high quality animation, soundtrack and the like. If we ever get a season 2 there are lessons to be learned but not in these departments.

nuh, it wasn't just being NEET and jealous, usually that comes with its share of mental health problems that if go untreated you just get worse (which of course wasn't shown in detail), throw a zombie apocalypse to the mix, you can get Higurashi. I liked how they presented his last moments.

RIP that Higurashi guy I guess but yeah if he only wanted to make friends that's the worst behavior to have lol. And I didn't expect the father's illness to be hemorrhoids lmao, at least they can travel inside Japan without much worry now... would be curious to see what's happening next.

So the last episodes huh..
This show really started off strong but due to the delay the hype just died down for me. Honestly, it was a 8/10 show but the frequent delay messed up my interest.

Started off better than it progressed, pretty decent finale though. Fell in love with Bucket List from Yoshiaki Dewa though whilst hearing it at the end.

Would've been nice to have it with realistic and touching backstories and motivations and be deeper than it was.. that's what I was hoping for from the beginning.

This anime really could've been something, oh well. Started off 8/10 and ended up 7/10

we're finally back and damn they didn't use that banger opening at the start but at least they used it right at the end, good stuff.
show peaked at episode 1 though unfortunately, was a 9/10 episode but keeps falling off after that with terrible humor but at least the visuals were good all the way through. i'll give it a 7 overall, but would've been less than a 6 if ep 1 wasn't as good as it was.

pretty much my thoughts on this, the first ep was perfect and after that it fell off and I actually dropped it before it went into hiatus

picked the show up now again after it was actually finished, because I had nothing else to watch and was actually pleasently surprised by the story, the show got some momemtum again with Bea joining the gang and the viallaige arc was nothing mindblowing, but had some good emotions and character development which I very much liked

Finally it's done after 10.000 years of waiting...

Emotional finale it is.

Despite all the delays and killed the hyped, i think this was still one of the best Anime from 2023.



Overall Very Solid 8/10

Hopefully they took as much time as they needed for Season 2, i don't want any more DELAY.

Despite the problems with the production making the last episodes go out too late, I really enjoyed watching this anime. This final was worth it. Seeing Akira finally returning to his parents and doing the possible and impossible to make them happy was one of the best things for me.

I confess that I thought that Higurashi and others were just going to be simple vilains without developing, but Higurashi's back story, with his actions in his last moments, making his redemption caught me.

This was a very fluffy ending. Nothing could've gone better. xP

Got an impression that puttig all that make up on Akira took much longer than the actual action. xD I think they could easily get rid of those zombies without father drama, since Akira is really good at fighting them. xp

When they were climbing the fallen pridge, and the father was trying to help, I was like, he might have one of the attacks right now, and they both fall down. xp

Well there it goes...The quick homages to the burger chomping, crass truck driver and his dog from Resident Evil 2 were a nice touch, and seeing them n the intro again and again was a reminder that...whomever made this has not seen nearly enough stuff about zombies probably. The multi colored "blood" was clearly put in place to get around the censors, though it really wasnt needed since there was virtually no real gore in this, and nobody even fought back against the zombies most of the time...ugh...When adult characters act like little kids in a show, it ruins the post apocalyptic vibes, but...at least there was some comedy out of it all. It just felt kinda forced andrushed. ANother show that needed way more episodes than just 12. And likely because of that, and the sheer fact they only made it to 86 gols on their bucket list...there will no doubt be a season 2. WHich is a good thing. 6.5/10

This finale episode was amazing from the emotions to the action, i was not expecting it to be this beautiful.

Akira and the gang are on there way to find/create a vaccine i hope everyone makes it.

I though Akira's dad was gonna have something like cancer but im glad it was nothing to be bad but i hope he gets it treated.

overall 8/10 i hope we get a season 2.

I enjoyed this anime quit a lot, the hiatus really ruined the experience a little bit. This anime is not just about zombies, it has a more profound meaning and purpose. The 'zombies' in this anime are used to represent the way many people live ordinary lives, ultimately becoming zombies. People doom scrolling on tik tok and IG, people living without a wanting to acomplish a dream. Honestly this anime is very profound and it makes a call to us all to live our lives to the fullest, spend time with friends and family and just living in the moment and enjoy it to the fullest.

Despite not liking Higurashi at all I think they made a good attempt to humanise him at the end there, although its quite difficult too after everything he did.
Having Bea still on top of that watermill barrelling down to save them was just perfect.
I will admit, I wasn't expecting them to clear out the village and make it completely safe again in such a short amount of time, but I guess after everything that happened it might not have been necessary.
I can believe however, that with the help of Kumano they'll be able to really fix up the village.
With the build up to Akira's fathers disease I was actually expecting it to be something crazy and he'd go right there, especially with the camera change to the white flower covered in red, but they really nailed the bait and switch.
Having them write all those new things to do really makes me want another season to see where it goes, but with the way this concluded I think it would be fine the way it is.
Having each of the character get their own send off, getting to see the people they saved one last time before heading out into the world!
