Bucket List of the Dead is a well done mix of serious and chill, funny moments. It's a real breath of pure air that is very enjoyable. Maybe it isn't for everyone, as humour is something very different among people, but for me it was a great experience.
The story tackles traditional, dramatic zombie stories by bringing a totally different ambiance and themes you wouldn't see normally in those stories. It's pretty well handled and some arcs are excellent. The more serious moments are pretty good too and blends in well with the light, chill ones. That's a good critic of japanese society among other things.
The characters are all enjoyable and very unique. Their dynamic is an amazing one and even if more people join their group, it will never affect negatively the balance and relationships between them and that's pretty cool. Akira is a carefree guy with a dark past but it's the light that shines above everyone in a doomed world. Kencho is the best friend everyone wants (that is, if you don't have a girlfriend). Shizuka is the cool-headed one but her interactions with the others in the party are very funny to read? Bea is a Japan fan and blends in very well with the others. Some other characters join later but it's up to you to discover them, I'm sure that you will love these ones !
The art is really good, nothing to say more I guess. I mean, I'm not a professionnal when it comes to drawings so yeah my gut feeling tells me that it's good.
I will end this review by saying that if you loved this manga, check out the anime it's very well made. And if you already did that, then read the manga it's as enjoyable as the adaptation !
