Glad to see they kept the Shaun reference, although it's kind of harder to get without the cricket bat at his side.

It's less gore more whore. Allthoug the whore is a man. I wonder why they didn't just kick that teacher out of their bus and everyone else who disagrees with them. There is no Democracy under the Dead. It's the right of the strongest!

Well this was deffinatlyanimated better then 2, I thought they gave up trying to animate the show seriously, but it looked great this time, so I guess were at the whim of the producers for each ep.
Its funny how they bring up the pleague as if thats even whats going on, if the plague killed people and they just got back up and started walking around, then I'd see a resemblance. But what is making them come back to life, its imposible for a desiese, unless it was a very smart one, but then just about every living thing would become zombies. The last part of this ep came out really great with respect ot the manga version, alittle different but really cooler.

Lol Shindou. The guy's a total nutjob. I'm glad they totally left in the Shaun of the Dead reference. It wouldn't be HSotD without it.

If Madhouse really insists on an original ending, I'm guessing it'll end

Things in Highschool of the Dead are getting more interesting! The newest episode introduced a few more characters (one is a bitch who believes only the strong survive and the weak should die and one reminds me of Simon as a kid in Gurren Lagann) and I just realized one of the main characters last names is Miyamoto. Shaun of the Dead cameo for the win!

For some reason I really liked the music in this episode and the worldwide disaster deal. The characters are growing a lot and the situation is fleshing out. Still a lot of unknowns but the series is really starting to build it's foundation and story past "OMG THERE'S ZOMBIES." Though this is a character driven story so keep that in mind.

Also those students are totally that teacher's bitches. I can understand the main characters having a big problem with that egomaniac and his democracy to throne himself as the leader.

I very loved this episode. It was so action packed, and I enjoyed every minutes of it brainlessly.The best part is when DITZ NURSE DRIVIN FUCKIN INSANELY. It seriously rocked.

Shidou's world greatest fag. Good thing is that he kinda redeemed Rei from being annoying head forever. Thank god. Students clapping was far too random; I hated that part in manga, too.

This week's ending was too good.

Oh,it seems that these creatures,whatever they are, die with fire (or die again..).

The situation is quite a nightmare..I don't think everyone will make it safe..It doesn't look like a humans' world anymore..It's more like a game of who gets to live by killing the others..And even if you survive, what's the point??You'll have killed many-including your friends- just to assure that you 'll be able to continue living in a rotting world, that either eats your flesh or your soul..I just hope something like this never happens..

The only thing i can predict is that more Zombie gonna die and more people gonna become Zombie...or more people gonna die before turning into zombie...
I guess the Zombie is just a main tool for the character's development in the story.
( if they don' improve the main tool........)
anyway...

Shidou is insane and annoying, yet, at the same time, he is the smex.
Okay, I may be slightly biased thanks to him being voiced by a certain Mr-Sex-On-legs himself....

That's great. Someone on the internet that admits that they are wrong. Well done.

One thing I always liked about the manga was that the main characters are smart enough not to make the common mistakes in a zombie Apocalypse. For example, in this episode they brought up the idea of the zombies rotting to death. I always wondered why nobody in zombie movies never brought that up. Because if it was the case then all you have to do is haul up in a mall for about a few months or so and wala! Problem solved.

Interesting episode, not quite as good as the firs two, but still very enjoyable. That new teacher seems like an interesting character as well...Kind of looking forward to his inevitable douchebaggery.

Well, there is a movie call "28 weeks later" that show the entire zombies population in England ended in 7 months....problem is how the heck are we gonna survive without food and water for 7 freak months. A mall would seems to be the ideal place to defend for its supplies of food and water and equipments.

They had to ruin this great episode with the stupid clamping ._.

Rei and Takashi are once again alone, I hope they won't destroy this moment with romance or any other cliché crap.

Looks like there's going to be a boob scene according to the preview in episode 4 and it doesn't even involve a zombie. Hmm...

Is it just me, or is the pink haired (forgot her name) girl really begining to grate!
She constantly rants, then gets rescued by another; it seems she values her smart-alec mouth over her saftey?

Rei was quite selfish in not wanting to rescue the an entire group of innocents just because of one bad apple, the putting herself in danger (she may have good reason? Yet still, there's a time and a place).
She could have always saw him off later, the others are likely to help, he's a horrid teacher afterall.;P

Those kids clapping were creepier than the zombies. More brain-dead, too. I mean, who in their right mind would pick that idiot teacher as their leader just because he's a teacher ? It's da freaking zombie apocalypse, people, think for yourselves dammit.

Sigh....its just not zombie related if there isnt a power struggle. Still wonder why she felt so strong against him to begin with, doesnt seem like a pervert but who knows, probably once tried to screw her ex or something. Oh well before I saw the preview I was expecting lovey dovey moments for the next episode since they are alone, but no, more angst and drama, but more ecchi so meh.

This was a pretty good episode, I kinda like the teacher my self just cause it gives something else for the kids to avoid/kill other than just zombies. When that blonde haired guy got knocked out by Rei it was the first time I didn't hate her, but she still annoyed me when she was super clingy to Takashi in the first half of the show then second half her attitude completely changed to "I'm leaving I don't care what you say!".
Can't wait to see if they make a uncensored version sometime in the future, the random screen going black or screen moves away from the hitting and just shows the blood was like "really? you're cutting out the best part!"

Almost forgot. Not sure if anybody's already mentioned it in this thread (too lazy, didn't read) But the name tag on the SOTD look-alikey clerk's name tag said 才門, which can be read 'Saimon' AKA Simon Pegg, who wrote and starred in Shaun of the Dead
