It was an intense episode as always but nothing much happened in this one... apart from their grately anticipated escape from the school and the new characters introduced. Still I like this new backdrop change... the city is more intriguing than the school. This show although it clicks some wrong buttons once in a while has a style that is very captivating!

Oh and for once the nurse didn't really get on my nerves... i found she became a lil more sensible... maybe though it's also because of the appearance of this new teacher who looks really creepy.... :S i wonder what has he done to Rei to hate him so much...

Too bad for whom? The anime? LoLz. Oh no, they've just lost a non-paying customer who watched their show on the net....I think they'll shut down their studio's and end the series by next episode because of your one liner. That really hurt them.

Democracy or the weapon of the weak. By the way, Shido is a great addition to the cast. Guess he'll be a much bigger threat than the zombies to the group.

That was a very good episode once again, well directed and with good (even if often highly unrealistic) developments.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

It's good, but some of this characters need to die really soon because they're grating on my nerves. I mean, seriously, why the fuck would anyone put up with that teacher's shit? They just saved his ass and all the students he brought with him! Speak up, you complacent turds.

And Takagi. Jesus Christ. I don't entirely hate her, her little duo with Hirano is fine, but if someone doesn't slap that bitch off her high horse soon, I might bust a gasket. "What makes you think a filthy otaku like you can interrupt me?!" (not verbatim) The zombies that he keeps saving you from do, bitch!

Honestly, I prefer the manga over the anime. While it takes pretty much every generic zombie scenario and snug it together; my favorite horror genre is zombies and I read manga on occasion. What better combination to waste a little time.

God damn I hate that fucker Shidou even more so now that he's in color. And so far so good. Managed to keep the chapter:episode ratio pretty well. The rate it's going, chapter 13 is the finale... Which is weird since that is a chapter not very linear to the storyline if you just add that in.. So I hope it ends at the end of the political mafia arc :D. Damn, I loved the first ED the best, but the other two aren't that bad.

Found this episode more enjoyable than the previous 2. Series is actually starting to become enjoyable for me. I think I've even grown immune to the ridiculous bouncy boobs and fanservice.

That pink haired bitch, however, needs to go. At least the world-class-douche-of-a-teacher is entertaining to watch being a douche. The girl, however, is not and her voice is grating to my ears. No blame to the VA since I'm sure she's supposed to sound annoying as she is. And I can't even hope to see her die since she probably won't until the way end, which the anime probably will never cover.

That Shido character...I already dislike him. Poor kid with the ankle. That was horrible. =0

Rei is sort of growing on me, now. I take back everything I said. She's actually becoming a bit more ballsy now. The first two episodes destroyed her but this episode redeemed her.

I know Takagi is sort of annoying, but I think her character's route is to improve.

School nurse, on the other hand, is almost destined to die. But I doubt it because she's the poster child for Fanservice...

I liked this episode, though, a lot. It may be a little bit slow-paced, but it is really good. :D

Ok, I'm just wanna say what I think is obvious: They're not really "dead". They're just organisms that have been corrupted by some kind of mutation. True living dead don't give a rat's ass about having their heads smashed, and they don't care either if they've been set ablazed (unless we're talking of some serious firepower i.e. causing cremation).
Thus, they're still technically living beings. Albeit not human anymore.

Rewatched the ep and god....all who agree to vote Shidou as biggest douche ever say "i"
Honestly, he annoys me even more when animated....(Especially when he kicked the kid in the face. Which reminds me....any1 thinking "This is Sparta" at that scene?)

Still don't like how each episode ends with a commentary. It gives it a some what bright ending to a "horror" type anime, and the commentary makes it sound like this happened in the past... but can't really blame the producer of the anime because he's just following what happens in the manga.

Rei should have whacked that stick/spear on Shidou like she did on the other guy!

this show is so controversial, almost every opinion is considered either stupid or trolling.
anyways, I was impressed by episode 3, I thought it was better than the rest, it had some real material to it, not just gore and fanservice. I can see a plot being developed and because of this HOTD just went from a 5/10 to a 7/10 for me.

I liked the episode, but episode one tops it for me. I still can't get over that epic ending with the scream, and the music. It can give a nerd like myself chills, for understanding the drama. hahaha! Anyways, I really liked that new guy that stomped that kids head when he sprung his ankle, and I cannot recall his name, sadly. >_< Anyways, when he did that it gave that guy a lot of character if you understand where I'm coming from. I'm looking forward to the next episode!

I think it's criminal that everyone's skin gets discolored and deteriorated when they become a zombie.

Zombies are the most racist horror monsters ever.

Or maybe they're the least racist, equalizing everyone into rotting fleshbags. Rotting fleshbags that only want to hug!

Wow now we get this power hungry teacher. I bet that same guy will become a traitor and leave everyone in that bus when everyone gets into trouble. Why did Takashi save that teacher!? Plus, his students seems to be the "brain washed type" of students so those votes didn't count. :(

Okay so Takashi and spear girl got separated from the others. I wonder what will happen and who will last longer. The motorcycle or the bus? or will they get reunited in the future?

Oh and apparently the zombie plague didn't only happen in Japan but it spread around the world. I bet Russia's the only safe place since in soviet russia you eat the zombies.
