That pink haired genious girl is really getting on my nerves. I guess I can't blame her since zombies suddenly sprouted out of nowhere. That or I guess she's just jealous since the girl Takagi love is there with her.

Okay so everyone is gathered up already and each one has a different personality, lol. I wonder what's next. From what I saw, it seems to be that they're going to go outside the school and rescue their families. I bet they're zombies aswell.

Man I'm starting to fall for this Anime. I loved how the scenery looks so gloomy just to add the horror level.

At first I kind of agreed with you, and then realized, what if I, who have never killed anyone, had just drilled through a person's head with an electric drill (I believe) and saw all the shit fly out of their brain. Oh yeah, I'd get right back up and yell off the top of my lungs "HELL YEAH."

Well, after watching this episode, I really have nooo complaints. I like every character (yes that includes clumsy nurse and crying Rei), and I think the pacing is perfect. I'm really impressed. There wasn't too much ecchi, and the fanservice that was in there wasn't too flashy for me. The gore is great, and I'm happy.

But I know that haters gonna hate, so this is probably a very low populated opinion.

Because honestly, she looks fucking stupid. One of the worst character designs I have ever witnessed.

In my opinion of course.

jep she looks kinda stupid since she is a total airhead that needs several days to think about and remember something but thats Shizuka-sensei ^^ in the story setting was someone as an adult needed who isnt adultlike so that the main male character can be the leader ^^

I've never been a fan of any brainless, helpless ditz with sound-effect tits.

Though I'm sure some love the stereotype, hence the inclusion.

its not that she is brain- or helpless at the beginning things are just not her strong points but i have no idea if the anime will go far enough with the story to show that xD
so maybe she will end up as a pure comedy act if they split it in 2 seasons (dunno that atm) and about the things with her boobs ... those are supposed to be a comedic point to the story and ull have bear more "gags" to come so for the non-japanese fans its just something to accept or not ;)
but for me i rly want to see this animated xD

It was better than the 1st episode for sure, but like everyone says Shizuka needs to get bitten. xD She's the nurse and she's the oldest, but she was acting like a 5 year old and got that student killed. I'd rather see a badass nurse instead of a clueless nurse in this type of story.

Moderate episode, wish they'd get to the point of the mad house (No pun intended) already. Seriously no one even asked Saeko why she knew so much about the zombies? And her similarities to Ryuugi from Toradora is growing on my nerves for some reason.

One piece of music in particular, sounds almost identical to the 28 days later theme. The guitar strumming the same heavy chord rotation.

THis series definitely deserves to be animated, the manga does a good job, but it can't convey the epicness of the series.

Better than the first episode. Viral for Hirano Kouta was pure win. I just love that fat kid.

Well...I liked this episode. But, for some reason, the manga feels a LOT better...perhaps because i have already read it, but I don't think so. The manga simply is more exiting.

It almost seems as the anime is going on slow motion for me...aanyways, it should get better when they head out of the school.

The thing is, I can't tell what the anime is doing wrong, or why it does not seem that great...but I know they are doing something wrong.

Still, good episode.

This episode was mildly annoying. All the girls in this anime are pretty irritating, especially the doctor; almost makes me want to drop it, tbh. It really takes you out of the moment when she's just there for some boob bouncing. And I just have to roll my eyes at that line: "Protecting a man's pride is the style of a real woman." lol please go back to the stone age. I would have preferred if this anime were a bit more serious.

The only character that's kind of entertaining is Hirano. Just kind of.

I kinda find it funny how people are watching a zombie apocalyptic show expecting comedy. Then again that might just be me. As for all the fanservice that blond bimbo has been showing, I really don't care, not saying I like it, just saying I dont dislike it.

Anywho, cheers to best show of the season.

I care little for comedy personally, I much rather serious anime or realistic anime. Thing is, they tried to implement some comedy and all of it was terrible apart from Hirano's role as god.

Haha! :P well maybe they were more than one spread across the city though..

anyways, this episode was... intense again.. despite the horror, supernatural etc shows that i have watched, these kind of stuff still make me tense.
but it was a good episode... despite that stupid nurse that got that nice student killed. she didn't even deserve him saving her! :S anyway... apart from her the other characters are fine i guess.

WOW, this anime sure has exploded with the amount of people watching it and talking about it.

So far I think it has been pretty entertaining, sure they're ripping off every ZOMBIE movie ever made, BUT SO WHAT.

Sure there's a lot of fanservice, BUT SO WHAT.

We finally get to see a Zombie anime full with blood and HOT BISHOUJOS, what else could I ask for.

This is quickly getting to be one of my favorites anime.......and dare I say, anime of the Year???

Most of the girls, I have a huge problem with.

Saya = frickin' brags about being a genius, doesn't do shit for herself and only leaving Hirano to do the dirty work

Rei = frickin' doesn't give a rats' ass about Takashi's feelings and what is she doing? She frickin' starts to feel for him. What a fuckin' bitch

Only thing I can say is that the episodes are great so far. Love the zombie killing and bashing.

How did you get this result? 1st episode covered whole chapter 1, 2nd episode covered extra chapter(8 pages but still) and like 3/4 of chapter 2.

Despite my negative feelings for the first ep, I thought this was much better.
Kohta was awesome this episode. He and Takagi seem to be the more interesting pair in this show.

Also, I hate it whenever the nurse comes in. I hope that they stop the over-the-top jug noises and give her more significance.
Ignoring the fan service seems to be a decent way to watching this show for me.

As a non-reader for this show, I wonder how it'll mix it up and WHO WILL DIE FIRST.

So our cast finally comes together. That nurse is rather annoying--her airheadedness is irritating.

Favorite characters so far: Takashi and Saeko--they don't whine and they're kicking butt

I like both the opening and ending songs too, I just have to remember to stick around after the end song to watch the clip before the preview.

I have no delusions about this being a save the world fic after 2 episodes seeing how things have gone but i'm curious about the story but I also don't want to ruin it later either. Anyone know how closely related to the manga this is?

Oh, I noticed people were still having issues finding subs on the 1st page, here's a link:

Im sort of curious actually... If this show is even really being censored. I mean in all actuality.. This may be the original form. The only reason I wonder that is.. Why would they censor it on AT-X.. and even for theanimenetwork members.. I mean wouldnt that be a big ploy to attract more paying members? Saying you had the uncensored streams? Or even.. Premium members get uncensored.. Registered get aired show..Just seems weird.

I guess none of us will really know until a BD/DVD release.. and since its liscensed now.. American companies know how to squeeze every dollar out of something.. I wouldnt be surpised to see a release just like we are watching on DVD/BD .. THEN .. a "directors uncut" version as a second release and costing more.

I really enjoyed this episode. That counterattack was pretty awesome. I got a little annoyed at some parts. The nurse, the "genius" girl at points, but I chalk that up to zombie attack trauma. I'm a little amazed though that these kids could hold off zombies with a nail gun & some sticks, but it looks like the police & military are being overwhelmed.

Far better episode with the introduction of likable characters like Fatty and Sword Girl. However, the episode had a huge weight on it with two more virtually worthless bimbos in the Doctor and Pink-Haired Bitch.

That said, the best scene is where Fatty and Pink-Haired Bitch discuss the abilities/attributes/weaknesses of the zombies.

And I don't like whining about censoring, but damn...that last kill...that wasn't mindless violence like a lot of the show. That was a very specific character moment that needed to be shown. Shame it was covered up.

...Yeah, that's pretty much everything I was going to say.

Also, if anyone among the established characters dies, it will be Miss Perfect. She breaks too many of the horror movie rules, and now she has to pay.

This is not exactly the best anime I've watched, but it sure darn has me excited for each and every episode. Who's up for a Battle Royale anime, anybody? Haha. That would make for an awesome anime!! :O

Hmmm here's my assessment on each character:
Takashi: He's your typical group leader, who will probably survive the whole anime.

Rei: Her character is a bit bland, but I'm looking forward to some character development in the future.

Saeko (Kendo Girl): Awesome!!! 'Nuff said.

Takagi: Ughhh, she's annoying but that end bit with the drill was epic.

Hirano: Haha. Otaku character for the win!!! ^_^

School Nurse: ....ugh. She's the fanservice character. Can't stand her. :/

Viral as Kouta's VA is win. Takagi's moment was cut sharp by censors, I'm disappointed in AT-X. The boing boing noises have to go, though the ecchi has been cut down to a more befitting level and I actually laughed when the nurse accidentally knocked out Kouta. There is still the bus scene which is borderline hentai, coming probaby in the fourth episode, but other than that, the show has been eroded of unnecessary fanservice.

I cant wait to see this "orgy bus" everyone talks about.. I want to see.. how they made the transition from fighting for their lives.. and not knowing if they will survive.. to fighting for some ecchi action...

Watch the anime skip those chapters.. lol
