High School of the Dead (2010)
学園黙示録

Highschool of the Dead

Takashi was a normal high school boy, until an infection outbreak took place n turned those being bitten into zombies. together with his friends n the school nurse, they fought their way out of the school n continued looking for survivals in their hometown while trying to find out what exactly happened.

applying one of the most attractive storyline, zombies managed to draw many attention, as well as viewers to it. with brilliant artwork n details, the anime was a real visual treat, even with its goriness. however having the story circled solely around zombie was proven to be not enough to satisfy. the anime lacked of depths, showing only what happened during their adventure without giving much explanations nor closure. although the journey was very much enjoyable, we were slightly disappointed to be left hanging in the end.

- language: Japanese
