If it's only 12 episodes I'll be a sad panda. But I suppose it's understandable, because there's only so much you can do with Zombies. Still, 12 seems short...how disappointing =[

That's quite disappointing. I enjoyed throughly the first 7. I hope they put something extra in there, whether it be an extension, a sequel, or OVAs.

The manga go's further and knowing how popular this show is they would make season two.

The manga comes out every month i think so they would probably complete the manga then continue the anime.

So the anime probably going end at ep 12 or 13 a 1-2 years later season 2

I think it will stop right after the mall setting, because the manga had a huge hiatus there.

But I'm sure there will be a 2nd season. :)

i think you may be right and I wouldn't be surprised if they do 12-13 eps for first season, then another 12-13 eps for 2nd season as the manga is on a hiatus now at ch.26 and considering they are doing 1 chapter per episode...

i just hope we don't wait too long for 22nd season as i'm really starting to get into it

I think it's a little short, but I can't say I'm surprised. With all the money they must be spending on production, it would be intense to expect a 26 episode or more serious right off the bat.

12 Episodes?

On Wikipedia there is 24 chapters in the manga (can someone cofirm this)

They may make a second season with another 12...

then wait for the manga to catch up?

actually there's 26 chapters out at the moment with the 27th coming out in September...as for if the anime will get 12 or 13 episodes is still up for discussion as no one seems to have actual source and I can't believe everything I read in Wiki

this is a good decision, it would be just stupid to make more episodes now that the manga has only 26 chapters or so.

Well to start off, the anime is following with the ratio of 1:1 Episode per Chapter. There are 26, so two seasons of 13 episodes sounds logical. However, even if a second season is to be released, I reckon it'll be a while considering budget and gap between keeping the anime slightly behind the manga. Though I'm not sure if it was even confirmed to be stuck down at 12 episodes for HOTD. Regardless, I think they might skip some chapters, such as the mansion. They could probably fit all of the mansion chapters into one condensed episode or two. Same applies to the mall. In the end, it's all business to these guys, and we just have to live with what we get.

Why would they waste 5~10 minutes of an episode to recap then shove several chapters in one episode =_=? In my opinion they'll probably end the anime at the mansion since they "appear" to get rescued and it would seem like a happy end for the anime.

Ahh. Im dissapointed. I thought there would be around 20 eps. I hope that they follow the manga to the end so that there is a possibility of a sequel. Tsubasa Chronicles fillers went to far and threw off the plot. I hope that doesn't happen with this anime. I love the manga.

Although is true, that a second season is needed to end along with the manga.

You're right

After 8, I noticed at the preview they've re-arranged things.
I can already see this ending as a 12/13 episode series. We'll see what happens when the next volume is out.

They might make the next chapter the last, and make an OVA of it or something. Lol

I doubt they will start season 2 after finishing 1st one, at the best they will start it at the end of 2011, seems logical for me..I think they going to ruin this anime anyway, so I don't give much hope, that always happens when something interesting comes out.

I have to agree with both of you, they are going to make a second season bc it is the same company that produce Black Lagoon and they did make a second season with it.

That's the thing about these Hentai guys, they don't take their work serious. I mean really they've been publishing since 06 and only 26 chapters?? They could have made at least 50 chapters by now. And then they have the gall to take a break right when their work gets turn into an anime. For shame.I wag my finger to them. At any rate they willl probably make 13 episodes and bam, we're left with a cliffhanger.

It's better to stop it @ 12 episodes and wait for more manga chapters to come out than to spoil the show by doing some FMA shizzle.

I am of course a bit disappointed but yeah..
