When Nikolakis told me there would be an anime like that some weeks ago I couldn't believe it.But when I confirmed it...

Being a hardcore Resident Evil fan and still playing every single game of them available, having watched most well-known zombie movies, I feel really lucky to watch an anime containing exactly this theme.And what a start!!The first episode really blew me off and immediately made me decide to edit a new amv.With music from Resident Evil games OSTs,of course!! :D

The abuse of fanservice is the only minus so far but if the plot advances well,I don't think it will diminish my interest for this series.Waiting for the second ep like mad...

what a early ID!
waiting for your AMV!

Actually the first person to make a successful funny zombieland trailer to this has my :beer:/ :pizza: seal of approval. :asd:

I plan to make a trailer with it but the audio source is from a game.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

I have a AMV idea for this as well. I'm gonna see if the next episode has a few more scenes that I need though.

Yo. I hear ero mangaka are often known to put sex and and fanservice in their non-ero works.

See Oh Great's Tenjo Tenge. Same thing in this case. Now whether the direction of the fanservice of the sexy girls in the anime is in the same tone as the manga for HOTD I'll leave it up to the viewer to decide on their own.

This comment reminded me to point out that this is NOT how you say hello when in Japan.

Not going to lie this show is pretty fun! The director knows about the fan service of the show and flaunts it but its okay the cheesy nature of zombie movies at least the older ones has been just that so it fits like the sticky white glove of the prostate exam doctor.

I like how it's only got one episode out but there's 4 pages of discussion.

Regardless of the end result, this already is the most hyped series of the season. And we know that those wind up not matching the expectations, generally...
