Description

I hadn't watched the series since I first came out so I decided to re-watch it this time....In ENGLISH (GASP OMG HOW COULD YOU ) Its about 10 times more hilarious. And, call me crazy, but I actually enjoyed the American references they threw in there. It wasn't like Shin-chan where it heavily relys on them but one or two here and there fit just fine. Some of them had me burst out laughing. I thought it was a top-notch dub with believable dialogue.

This series gets SO much flack because there are more tits and ass than Agent Aika on crack. And given that it's the first manga/manga with a zombie apocalype theme, it's going to draw much attention from non-anime fans and just people who love zombie flicks.
Someone like me who has been over-exposed to ecchi tits and ass since the tender age of 12 can surely over-look such silly things but so many people bash the shit out of it for that. I guess size J tits isn't easy to come by in anime. :: rolls eyes :: But you know what ELSE isn't easy to come by? The ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. BECAUSE IT WILL NEVER FUCKING HAPPEN.

Sorry, guys, but this scenario will never play out. And if it did, you most likely would be dead within the first two days of the outbreak. Everyone wants to play the hero. It aint as easy as it looks. Trust me.


But enough of my rant. I'd like to talk to about my two favorite characters in the series. Saya Takagi, the genius girl with the pink hair and glasses and Kohta Hirano, the fat otaku nerd who knows everything there is to know about guns and weaponry.

First off, let me just announce my gratitude to the creators for adding in a character who is seemingly a fat loser, yet the most useful of the bunch. And not in a hidden way, he pops out of the shadows every once in a while to give useful information to the beautiful characters.
No. They totally give him the screen time he deserves. In the event that shit goes sour and zombies DO come running you want this guy by your side at all times. Don't take him lightly.
Not only is he smart and knowledgeable about every weapon they come across, he can shoot them all with amazing accuracy having had experience overseas in America with an ex-military official.
He's definitely the most calm and collected of the bunch not to mention caring and polite and bonds well with the main character, Takuma and becomes a sort-of replacement father figure for a little girl they end up rescuing.

Oh, and did I mention that his character is also based off of the familiar manga artist of the same name? Hmm. Hirano. Where have I heard that name before? Oh yeah. He's this fuckin guy: [link]

Oh yeah. Another one of my favorite manga.

And now let's talk about Saya. Kohta's Love interest.
I don't know why, but I have a general fondness of the bitchy characters. Everything about her mirrors Asuka from Evangelion, but she's way more honest with herself. I liked how the creators build up her snootiness, only to have it completely knocked down when she's in perell. She is also very smart and knowledgeable. Even more-so than Kohta in a general level. She explains to the group about EMPs and the state that the world is in. But, like many character in the anime world she absolutely refuses to have anything to do with Kohta. Aw, but does she love him? I don't know. The manga is hinting that way, but the creators constantly put this series on hiatus and it has almost been a year since the last chapter.

But I love these two together. They are so cute.

Sorry for the rant.
