So what comes next will be an original by Madhouse? They are not going to follow the Manga or whatsoever?
This is not what I meant. I never said there were no more LN after this. I said the 3 episodes makes up the vol.1, thus imply that there are further volumes (and the assumption is the anime will keep adapting the further volumes of the LN). I said "originally the LN is supposed to have only ONE VOLUME" because the author originally wrote just one volume for an competition. So everything tied up together at the end. Of course he later wrote more volumes to continue the story, but from a structure and story point of view this volume can almost be treated as a prequel - one reason of it is a major character is no longer there but also the scene is going to be shifted to an entirely new location with a lot more characters and complexity of the plot, so vol.1 feels a bit separate compared to other volumes.

Also please note that the manga is just another adaptation of the LN, like the anime.

Wait, there's only ONE VOLUME and we're at the ending of the ONE VOLUME?
There WAS only one volume but of course there are many more now.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

So this kinda sucks.
I was such a fan of his and now he just died? I mean yeah it's right and he died happily and daughter and tears and touchiness but - really? He was such a badass character who could have kept the anime interesting easily.

KILL OFF MY FAVORITE CHARACTER WHY DON'T YOU.


My thoughts exactly. Since the beginning I was like "meh, I don't really care for the little girl, but HH is really cool". And he's dead already. What?

And with that, the story felt weirdly complete. They tied up every loose end, leaving no mysteries to be answered in the next episodes. Awkward.

Why do people think that all the story possibilities must be introduced in the first episode?

And this isn't even complete, we don't know why God left the world on Sunday, we have no idea how the world is, how bigger cities are with the new world order. Ai is a half gravekeeper, she will have to travel like any gravekeeper, so she'll meet different people with different problems and mature. We haven't seen much about the plague.

There are so many good possibilities.

As slightly confused as I was when watching the episode and as ridiculous as it was with lolis doging bullets, the immortal not being immortal and the existence of shimapans, it didn't stop me from enjoying it. The ending had many feels, especially with the ending song.

Really curious as to whats going to happen now.

Any one else notice that one main character death increased this shows rating by a half of a point?

Is MAL really that easy to impress?

So far this show has had no story.

I enjoyed it a lot, but giving a show high marks 3 episodes in just because a main character with virtually no backstory died and because you are angry that god made you ugly is lame.

Give the show some time to breathe before you get fangirl.

Hopefully someone correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding, the villagers probably died around the same time Ai's mom did, but they kept on "living" for the sake of Ai who was still a little kid. They were basically sane zombies, bodies rotting and all that. Then comes "Humpiewhateverthefuck" as you call him, seeing a whole village of "dead people" and he kills them so they can "rest in peace".

By the people couldn't die, what they mean is that the soul can't leave the body. But once they "die", the body start to rot and their mentality start to change, becoming more selfish among other things.

In this world the spirit remains in the body despite the body dying. That is what it means that people "can't die". Their soul will continue to animate the body despite the petrification of the body. In this world, over time these people lose their rationality and instead become more akin to animals, where sensual stimulation and maintaining their decaying bodies are all that is important to them. However because this occurs over time, and of course their loved ones won't admit that their beloved is changing into a monster, the dead end up exploiting the living, causing great damage.

Hambert knowing this took it as his mission to so severely damage the bodies that the soul can no longer animate the body (though it is still trapped until a gravedigger releases it). This is done usually by blowing off their heads.

The villagers were dead, but while their bodies were decaying, they still wanted to hold on to the happiness they had experienced in life for as long as they could.

He's dead, finally. Because he was pain in the ass. And I really don't get it why she was always liking him when he abused her all the time. And Humpney was stupid I have to say - how could he not recognize he is his daughter before (when she even told him in first ep)???

Dialogues in this anime are very bad. Characters and their motivations are very shallow. I wanted to drop this because I couldn't stand their stupidity (main heroine being the worst, Yuri is the best) but the end and his parting left me surprised I guess after all (well, first I was more like, what the hell? You kill off characted we hardly care of after three episodes, right? You didn't explained his immortality, right?). I will give this anime second chance, let's hope it gets better.

I was wondering why Scar didn't buried Hampnie Hambart as soon as he dies. After all, isn't she emotionless? Haha oooh well the scene between the father and daughter is good though~

Soooo at first God granted his wishes and granted him immortality. Though after God abandon the world God still can grant him his wishes to die happy. o.o Lets just see how the series will go.

"There was a man called Hampnie Hambart, and a gravekeeper called Alfa. I'm their daughter."

"And thus, after losing his wife,
making his daughter cry,
being seen off by a friend and a gravekeeper,

and leaving behind regrets,

the Man-Eating Toy (Hampnie Hambart) passed away."

At the tender age of 12, Ai has become an orphan, having buried her own mother and father - with her own hands. Yuri would say Kizuna is a lucky bastard - he lived like a terrible man, found the answer to his life's quest and died like a good father.

His immortality wasn't unlimited after all huh. I have to wonder just how many times those other scumbags killed him for his "reincarnation charges" to run out... or maybe it's because his wish can now be granted. Just when I thought the guy was becoming more likable... well have to say I wasn't expecting him to die on everyone else.

Apparently, the novel was only supposed to be one standalone volume, but got more so we can probably expect some kind of timeskip next episode.

The only issue I have with this episode is that it seems they had to rush through other stuff to end this "prologue" in 3 episodes.

1. Ai wakes up and realizes that she hates Hampnie,then is fine later on.

2. Same immortal crap of wanting to die.

3. took Yuri one night to forgive Hampnie, and happily talks about him as his best friend again.( went from saving Ai, then threaten her against someone who was about to kill her, finally save her from drowning.)

4. Ai said that she can'y imagined Hampnie the kind of person who would resort to violence only if the reason is legit.

5. Ai confirmed that Hampnie is his father, then all of a sudden believes in him and that he does what he do for the greater good.

6. Yuri mention the way to capture Hampnie is to wait for him to revived. (makes no sense, you could just carry his dead body!)

7. Ai list out her mother's personality, and Hampnie finally realizes that Ai is his daughter. ( He should have seen the resemblance when he first met Ai !)

8. Ai hit someone with her blade looking shovel, and her hat fell off. (why her hat comes off so easily! Every time she does some strenuous work, her hat comes off. If the producer just wanted to show off her long hair, then keep the hat off!

9.An immortal guy who losses his memory of how he die if he died under great stress suddenly loses his immortality for no explain reason.

10. Kizuna Austin is then buried. ( the body will stop moving if the brain or the entire spin was severely damage. So it is safe to assume that Kizuna is just closing his eyes and waiting for his burial to be completed. The coffin was opened. So was he buried like that or they sealed it?)

All in all, this episode had so many plot holes and generic setting.

Wow stunning episode! I can't believe Hambert's fate already. The rescue scene was amazing with the slow motion bullets. It really made me emotional when Ai was burying him, that must have felt so terrible for her. I wonder what's the next step for Ai then. I envisioned this series to be a road trip with Hambert searching for Hana with Ai but this arc ended much quicker than expected.

Really loving this series, can't wait for the next eps!

Hmm, well that...was...

Question 1: was the original source material an anthology or something?
Question 2: If so, why didn't they tell us in the first place? If not, then what the heck was up with this episode?!

Having an arc is one thing, but this was a solid ended plot and a solid, ended short story. It was a short story the was beyond rushed that I almost felt the plot shatter on impact!

I really don't know what to really make of this show. At times it wants to be emotional and deep, but then it is hampered by bits of really back awkward comedy, and Ai trying to balance being cute and innocent with awkward and annoying.

HH's development was rushed faster than a bullet train with him being stoic, harsh and sarcastic to uber-emotional in less than a minute with no meaning. It is revealed that he IS really Ai's father and that the girl that he was looking for was Ai's mother, but while that wasn't a really surprising revelation, the actual scene of it was quite deep and emotional. HH finding out the the girl that he's been pimp-slapping and kicking off bridges and threatening to kill was actually his daughter was actually very nice and not one I've scene in regards to parents and their children in an anime before.

However, that very touching scene was pulled down with Ai and Scar's "fighting" and Ai's stupid lines as well as the homicidal circus freaks that really had no point in even being there other than plot contrivance. And then for no reason at all, this happens to be the one time, the one day, right after he's found something to live for, that HH just dies. This leads to a wonderfully emotional end scene where Ai spends the day with her zombie father and is forced to bury him in the end.

This would have been a wonderful end scene at the conclusion of a show. The only problem is that this is ONLY episode 3...
So at episode, 3, we've already killed a major character and tied up all missing strings (yes, we were all correct in that the village was all dead to begin with) and pretty much ended the series as it need to be ended. The only problem with that is that this is the 3rd episode and we've barely seen any of these characters and now all of a sudden it feels as though it's over even though we have 9 more episodes to go.

We did they rush through this like this? And if it is an anthology, there must have been better ways to do this? I had high hopes for this show in the beginning, but it's quickly becoming only average at this point. I don't like anthology stories and with HH gone, I really don't know if I want to be following his loli, scatterbrained daughter around and she goes on adventures.

I will give this episode an 8/10, but this show has gone down to a 6/10 in my estimation.

After some research, I've discovered that these three episodes compromised vol. 1 of this series.

Now, I don't know how long the original light novel was. But three episodes seems awfully short amount to compromise an entire novel.

Hell, the manga adaptation probably covers this area with about 20 chapters or so in total.

I do like this series, but I honestly think that the staff need to slow down their pace.
