People are dying like flies or birds in this case, but Go's gameboy should've prevented the worst. Btw, after going through such devastating events who would even care about paying or not lol.

I still like this, tho, I'm not as enthusiastisc as I was at the beginning. Seems like this series blew it's load while showing the quake, just hope it will get up again before the finale. Being carried by the unintentional comedy isn't bad, but not satisfying either.

This show is getting really bad! The animation is horrible already, but i was eager to give it a pass since the plot seemed good; yet it went from good to average to bad. We get a typical for the apocalypse-genre rapist already. Another character is killed off randomly. And again the MC girl, who is annoying as hell, is the one "responsible". We also have a paycho archer, and a random youtuber from the sky. People there treat this tragedy as if some kind of thrilling adventure! They've lost 2 people already but show NO HUMANITY. Funny how the annoying girl MC is the only one who at least tries to be relatable, by showing some emotion. Who cam up with this crap?

God, if apocalypse theme wasn't my #1 favorite theme, I'd drop it instantly. Gonna keep watching to see if this gets any worse!

the pacing is going far too fast, and the deaths? like Nanami's death wasn't exactly necessary and we didn't know much about her so her death was pointless imo.

A brutal episode. KITE appearance might be some new light for the family to survived after that apocalypstic. Only to knew that Ayumu was shaming me for just bringing a chaos for the family. She was an arrogant girl that never understand the whole situations. And with her mistake, another member seems died because of her. After some sweet reunion in the first attempt. They all back to separated again. On to another world. Because of Ayumu as the resource to be blamed. Thats it.

I don't know if this is the pessisimist side of me coming out, but the title of the show is Japan Sinks, I'm expecting no one to survive. At the most maybe one of them and probably not any of those that started the journey. The country is going to sink, if you go by the title. And in my estimation, if your in a country that sinks you're going down with it. From the first three episodes, the tone is depressing and futile. Not every anime has a happy ending

Lmao Ayumu just accidentally fucking killed someone else once again in this episode. I know its not supposed to be funny but it was a little bit.

Im sure the kid will be alright since he most likely shot his bag and his Gameboy or something protected him

said i was gonna put this on hold since it was too much but i ended up watching another one tonight and how the hell did this show change so much in one episode its super wack and it's gone beyond looking super rough as a style choice the art for the characters keep changing each episode it's gotten real bad

also Ayumu just got another person killed by accident it legit just happened out of nowhere i'm still trying to figure out what kind of gas can just kill you within a second i know prolong exposure can from a lot of gases but just snap your dead i can't think of any.

now i'm starting to think i should stop before my opinion changes on this show to much might save myself some time if word comes out if it's worth finishing

I think the music is a real bad fit for the show action. It's too dissonant, and not in a good way. Was "Kill em All" Tomino the executive producer in this show?

Well ... this episode explained the reason for the random English a bit more. The son really seems to like it and used vids from that YouTuber to learn it.

Bit weird at the beginning though. Felt as if I had skipped 1 episode. They dealt with the death of the father too fast. Then the mother and daughter arguing like little kids.

Also them being too overly happe after beating the pervert guy. Felt a bit like comedy there. And the girl being horny for the other guy and jealous of the other female (who then died) ... felt a bit weird.

This episode was less good than the previous 2.I think that shop guy was some looter that "took over" the shop - maybe?

Son getting killed - would be nice ha ha. (Less random English.) But I doubt he'll die. Too many chars would have died then. The other guy - where I hoped he would get more important - seems borign so far though. So he ran (sports) in the past - and something happened to make him a shut-in?

A bit weird as well: YouTuber just suddenly joins them when he could have left with his flying thing to a safer area. And the daughter annoying about "stealing" when nobody cares in such a situation.

It's kind of crazy to me how Ayumu leads Nanami to her death and then just forgets about her. Ayumu needing to use the restroom was just an excuse because she was annoyed that Nanami was all over Haruo in her eyes and we see how that ends. I don't know how to feel about this series so far.

What a piece of shit driver, and a dumbass too for trying to attack someone from a group while being on his own. Ayumu is also getting annoying with her weird antics even causing Nanami to die. Found it bit too random how there was poison gas there and a famour youtuber and also that end with the shopkeeper.

Another episode and I think this show’s getting progressively worse.

Picking up from last episode and everyone (except the daughter) has immediately forgot about the Dad. I under set and the stay strong mentality, but the mother could show a little humanity. Next they lying a ride with an asshole. He attempts to rape Nanami (I think that’s her name), but she and the mother deal with him. Boy, people are sure quick to lose their morals.

They continue walking, but Nanami goes to the toilet and dies. Poisonous gas, or course ifs poisonous gas. Another stupid, somewhat hilarious death. New guy arrives, he’s pretty cool. They leave and immediately forget about Nanami.

This show is just suffer porn at this point but I’m not invested enough in any of the characters to care.
Uh....are we watching the same show? They care about him but they can't keep thinking of him because you know the world is currently falling apart right now. Also I don't see what is funny about the toxic gas death since you know that shit can happen. Anime fans got a fucked up sense of humor. What people think is supposed to be comedy isn't really comedy. This show is more realistic than your usual anime.

The goal is survive not moan people you lost. You can do that later. Seriously, are people not understand how people handle trauma and tragedy? Christ...Heck even in Kill la Kill Ryuko didn't constantly cry about losing her dad. I'm a writer and the way you write this is show how the character grows from it. If you are constantly bring it up, you're not really over that death of a love one. I lost my grandfather a few years back. He loved baseball a lot. I used to tear up from seeing it but now I just push on because he would want me to keep living and nto worrying about him. This isn't a shonen anime. What we're watching is people experiencing shit as it comes.

Maybe it's because I watched hit like Eden of the East, I am not asking questions like that.

Could it be that the whole show was released all at once? Because I could watch the whole show on gogoanime. Overall, I did like the first episode the most. As most people said, the story and the drawings became worse, but overall it was an interesting show. The music was also on point. I would rewatch it at some point.

Well episode 2 ended with everyone shocked knowing what had just happened, then this episode started off as if the dad never even died and no one seemed effected at all, I've never experienced something like that but even if this was going on in real life I would still at least cry.

They just brought him up in episode 4. They're not acting like he didn't die but in this situation you would focus on living and not worrying about who died.

I would suggest the Disaster Report series if you ever got some time on your hand as while it is very goofy, it tackles a lot of issues like this and how people handle lost surviving during nartual disasters.

The vegan yam daughter is pissing me off. She got jealous of Nanami for getting close to her hikkikomori crush and unknowingly brought her to an area with poisonous gas then she CRIES afterwards!? Girl, didn't you want her dead for being close to your crush just a few seconds ago!? Make up your goddamn mind!

Not gonna lie though, Nanami's death was pretty fucking hilarious, even more than the dad's "uh-oh" moment. She just drops dead in a split second. There wasn't enough time to feel bad or anything. I felt more sorry for her when that drunk driver tried to rape her. Her death scene was more of a WTF moment.

I don't doubt that rapes would be common during a apocalypse. However, it just seemed weird that he was willing to do it even though he was outnumbered. It was five against one, including the kid, and the mom is built like a brick wall.

Anyway, the YouTuber guy was pretty cool but so fucking random. Like here they are lost near Mt. Fuji and a YouTuber with a a homemade giant propeller just comes out of nowhere lol

I think Pokemon Go is okay, arrow probably hit his Nintendo Switch or something.

It starts out with mother of the year berating her daughter, who just had to throw a tantrum during the apocalypse. The dialogue is so forced and rushed. These people are freaking psychopaths.

"Are you okay?"
"Well the country is engulfed in natural disasters, everyone around me is dying, and my dad blew up in front of me... So, yeah!"

And then they hitch a ride with the horndog, who drinks an entire bottle of cognac while driving a semi through ravaged highway streets, and of course they leave Nanami with him in the cab. Not the adult or the teenage boy. Obvious things happen leading to a terrible fight scene. They waste the entire taser battery on Senor South Smile, and it takes three of them to bring him down for some reason.

Random poison gas attack kills Nanami, and the daughter is too much of a coward to take a deep breath and grab her. But flying GoGoSearch man (because you can get YouTube but not Google apparently) says she died instantly. He wastes engine fuel before ditching his entire flying machine because the daughter chastised him for stealing from dead people during the apocalypse. But I mean this episode is the first time that any characters have shown emotion for each other at all, especially the mom for her family.

Mr. Happy Pants just happens to share Life's prescription. I'm sure Koge will be terrified of his erections for the rest of his life. All the weirder when his kohai asks to be noticed mere hours later. But this is the universe where people are still ashamed to mention urination to each other, too embarrassed to grab the last extant box of tampons, and fervently believe a box truck a mile away can hear their voices. So sounds about right.

No way the son is dead. Even though he should be. I'm just happy we didn't hear the same "pinging" song this episode.

Nanami's death was basically death porn. I mean we barely know anything about her. It was just more shock value. That seems to be all this anime is going for tbh. With the annoying rapist and another cliff hanger this episode. Plus there is no way he's dead. The bag definitely blocked most of that arrow. Also what kind of crazy person who supposedly owns a shop would attack strangers like that. First of all it took him way too long to notice which is suspicious. But like why not greet first and see if you can help each other out?

Sigh. That mom is a terrible parent. How could they just skip the whole death scene and then act so nonchalant? Can we go back and see what happened after he blew up, please? The daughter’s tantrum started off serious and then turned comical. She’s the only one acting semi normal.

If you are surrounded by a gas with no oxygen content, and you breathe it in, you will pass out almost immediately. Then you have no ability to remove yourself from the danger before you are dead. It doesn't have to be poisonous. That's why they used to lower a canary into a coal mine to test the air. If it came back up dead, they knew not to go in.

Also: Gou took an arrow to his game? He probably survived then.
