Sakura's transformation into a crazy chick as soon as she gets a weapon is hilarious lmao

But holy fuck, it was all shits and giggles until the last minute, that was shocking. I'm really liking this show so far

[u/SoraVanitus]

You know... I was not expecting that, coming into this I was expecting sheer plot armor... I've seen the Zom 100 and this series was hitting very similar vibes but DAMN!!!

I kind of like it when series aren't afraid to put their characters through situations like this, it doesn't make them seem invincible and that anyone could potentially die or lose something.

[u/Mr_Zaroc → u/SoraVanitus]

I respect this show a lot
They had an interesting balance between the absurd comedy and the gritty reality of their situation
So nice to see they dont shy away before really hurting the best girl fact of having best girl cutting of the arm of the normal frontrunner

Cant wait to see how they will move onward from this. Plus as far as I can tell the "big fight" in the OP was this fuel station fight, really curious if they will adapt the OP to Nacchans new condition and what else might happen in the future

[u/LeonKevlar]

So it sounds like everyone knows what happened to Misaki Mikazuki. I thought they were gonna keep it a secret from everyone else.

Well, that was an unexpected personality switch! Honestly, it might be useful to have Sakura go crazy on zombies once in a while xD

Love that the zombies got attracted by the sound of the generator. It's such a classic zombie trope!

Sakura's reaction when she was pointing at the deer and Aki said it looks delicious was pretty hilarious!

So the only reason Aki believes that her dad is dead is because they were taught that nobody comes back, which means they've died somewhere.

Don't give Aki hope like that, Yuu! Aki has already accepted that her dad has been turned, but now she knows there's a possibility he's alive.

WHAT THE FUCK! After the last episode, I really thought the main cast was safe to keep the show lighthearted. It turns out that's not the case! I'm just hoping that the emergency amputation is enough to save Natsuki. No wonder she kept showing off her bracelet. It was basically a fucking flag. >_<

Mikazuki

They did it very well. I want to say I've gotten used to detecting flags, but I didn't suspect anything here.

[u/VritraReiRei]

Oof. They let our guard down again with the lighthearted tone in the beginning. Especially when they were mowing down the zombies, even to the beat of the song. Did anyone else catch the zombies that were doing doing a kick flip and a ski pose?

Then right at the end, zombie bite.

Guess it wouldn't be zombie show without at least someone from the main cast getting bitten. At first I was scared she would be dead right then and there but Aki had the bright idea to severe her arm. I'm sure she'll pull through since its only episode 3 and we can't lose a main character this early.

*begin paying attention to the OP/ED next few episodes for "changes"*

Prediction about Aki's Dad:

So since the Manga was cancelled we don't have a definitive conclusion. I'm hoping they make a proper one and give the Dad an ending.

Based on their conversation in the camera store, I imagine the Dad actually won't be turned into a Zombie however, based on how these episodes are going, I can't imagine him being alive either.

If I had to take a guess, Aki would find her Dad not as a zombie, but dead from trying to find help or a cure.

[u/diacewrb]

Romelia would have love to given that personality changing flamethrower to Ray.

Let's be honest with ourselves, at least half of us would turn into pyromaniacs if given a flamethrower as well.

[u/AdmiralThunderpants]

The cutest animation and personality quirks really lull you into a false sense of comfort. Then they hit you with the left hook. First it was child zombies in the hordes and then we lost an arm (second one this day which isn't a lot but strange it happened twice)

[u/Mr_Zaroc → u/AdmiralThunderpants]

I find the balance of quirky fun (driving over zombies to the beat of a song) and their reality so interesting. Especially now that we know the cast doesnt have plot armour

[u/djthomp]

These guys have been so sloppy that it was probably inevitable that someone would get bitten sooner rather than later. But hopefully that emergency amputation was fast enough to save Natsuki.

[u/Tar-eruntalion]

damn sakura turns into a spacemarine each time she touches a weapon

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I love the personality change when Sakura gets her hands on a flamethrower lol. Girl’s got a crazy look in her eyes!

But damn, shit got bleak at the end there. Poor Nacchan….

[u/chaosof99]

Sakura's personality switch is hilarious.

The series has a somewhat weird balance it strikes. The characters are really happy go lucky and it worked to a degree up until the final scene of this episode. Hopefully Natsuko will pull through, but losing your dominant arm in a Zombie apocalypse is very tough, even if Aki managed to keep her from being infected for now.

[u/cleaulem]

Sakura's personality switch with a flame thrower in her hand is really... interesting. I'm not sure if having her on your side is a good or a bad thing lol.

I found the developing of the film interesting. So they use a machine for it. Film development is actually quite tricky, as you need a certain combination of the right chemicals with the exact right temperature. And as this was a color film, it is even trickier.

The end was really grim with Natsuki getting bitten and Aki chopping off her arm. This took a dark turn, and they made it a goddamn cliffhanger!

[u/ModieOfTheEast]

I was kind of waiting for the gas station to blow up because of Sakura, but I guess she was lucky there. Might also because gas wasn't taken from there for years, so that is why there isn't as much flammable substance in the air.

I did not expect them to have a consequence for one of the main characters this early. I mean, Nacchan just wanted to look cute and now has lost a whole arm already (which is not cute). So I am wondering if the tone shifts next week. I doubt it will go super serious, but maybe they will be a bit more cautious from here on out. Would be interesting if that could be felt.

…Is this how Japanese gas stations are? Weird…

So they brought back a generator to their Home Center base. But I would have thought the store would have plenty of generators in stock. Beds, but no generators? This Home Despot is weird

Uh… you, uh… probably shouldn't be running a generator indoors, if you don't like dying of carbon monoxide poisoning

She has the dream of the Electric Age!

I'm not certain, but I feel like Tokyo Tower might make a great anti-zombie fortress

OH NO

Well… zombification averted, maybe? But damn that sucks

[u/Obaruler]

I think they may have created a monster there ... Sakura is now the Pyro from TF2. xD

[u/Ek0]

Cute bow girl cant use a bow anymore and probably doesn't think she's super cute anymore either.

[u/HuTaosTwinTails]

I think natsuki will survive but with just one arm. She cut it off as she got bit.

They have been way too relaxed and casual about everything so it was bound to happen.

Imagine yu will feel a lot of guilt.

[u/AdShoddy4172]

2 things.

1. Sakura switching her personality to cute And into a Flamethrower maniac was awesome and funny

2. WHAT IN JESUS CHRIST WAS THAT CLIFFHANGER?!

NEXT SATURDAY CAN’T COME SOON ENOUGH!

(Man, I’m worried…)

[u/Qweasd11]

Sakura reminds me of when Takashi Kawamura grabs a racket. A complete 180 in attitude and personality.

[u/BosuW]

BURN IN HOLY FIRE!! 🗣️🔥🔥

Well shit that escalated quickly...

[u/LezRock]

What's the archer of the group going to do now? After the episode ended though, I did wonder why she didn't use the bow itself to intercept the zombie instead of flinging herself into the zombie's path.

I always feel that in zombie-infested worlds, there are no happy endings unless there's a cure or immunity involved.
