Dafuq did i just watch XD. At first i just saw the horror theme so i told myself, why not ? Could be funny ! Then i started watching and was like, 'the hell is this ? Moe shit ? Well i'll continue a bit, after 10 minutes i was like, you serious ? I nearly stopped watching but i gave it a chance, then towards the end i was happy i didn't drop it funny plot twist lol. I think it will be hilarious, the main character is mentally messed up lol.


Dude, that is exactly what I just went through. I hope all the episodes are not like this. The episode itself I thought was kinda boring aside from the plot twist at the end.

Holy shit, that was awesome!

Yuki is totally insane, and I'm suspecting that Megumi isn't real either...everyone but Yuki ignored her presence. I'd watch more school slice-of-life series if they all had twists like this.

Ugh, I don't like the changes as much as it gives a better 1st episode compared the 1st chapter of the manga.
Pretty sure they're going to have to do flashbacks later on considering they skipped a ton of story. Otherwise they have to go through an original route which if they did, I just hope they don't fuck it up.
Cross fingers and hope for the best I suppose...

It's super depressing that self-congratulatory, dark subversion is the new norm for the horror genre. It's not scary or clever in any way, only predictable; I knew the anime would follow that route as soon as I saw how abnormally moe it is.

Anyway, dropped. Not sure how people aren't getting tired of this (though I am kind of jealous).

That's because your standards are too high. Get off your king's chair and you'll enjoy most shows that you dropped.

holy shit man i always thought something was up with the visual cover came in knowing next to nothing about this.

hints i started to pick up on were one why Yuki was the only one attending class at the time just thought well this is just some weird club that the school is allowing

then seeing the "dead end" boarded up to the top with desks had me questioning it but that big red flag for me was seeing the grave in the roof top garden nearing the end i was thinking this show might have more to it than i thought..but that was quite unexpected.

so is this gonna continue like this or is shit gonna be real from here on out.

Haven't read the manga.
20 miniutes of moe bullpoop for shock effect, meh. Tone shift was still cool though even if I was going to drop it at 10 mins. I'm a party pooper I know.
That one girl reading stephen king novel.
I like that the mc is psychotic, but 20 minutes of moe poop was still harsh on my brain.

Looking forward to the next episode! I'm hoping for more horror but I really can't tell where this series will go from here.

Whoah. I hate the fact that I did check the discussion first before watching it. To be honest, I haven't noticed the Horror tag at first. But still, I was still surprised to see that her classmates was already dead.

It was fun,it felt useless at first, but then I started to notice lots of good juxtaposition littered throughout the episode. Some I saw, some I missed (like when Miki looked uneasy when Yuki said, "class is going on") but realized that it was there when the ending came. This looks very entertaining.

Majority this episode did a good job introducing the characters and I'm guessing their "everyday lifestyle" (Or so they want to think) but the last part...........

I knew about the zombie thing but damn I did not expect to see that our MC is in denial about the situation and obviously has so much psychological trauma that she's made up her own reality that she actually believes is real

That is some intense shit to say the least O_O Definitely watching this series to the end now

O.O what the h#%% i just watch, early i just watched 10mins of this episodei i think is another loli, school slice life, but now i have more time i watch it full....im in shock...and Yuki delusional scene talking in his class...d...god. For a moment i compared Yuki with Mavis from the Fairy Tail spin-off, but i realized she worse than Mavis. Is so sad and crazy.

OP is cute, and ED is okay. That whole dog-chasing scene was a lot to get through because of all of the fantasy Yuki's trauma caused, but it was fun while it lasted. Interested in what's going to happen next.

OMG she is imagining this whole time. Zombie apocalypse !!!! WTH!!!

No wonder all her classmates were talking to only her. Not even to Miki.

That writing on the blackboard 0____0
Someone's grave---Megu-nee?
Shovel kill ratio
Barricade 0____0
So they are growing their own food on the roof.
Stephen King book ....was another hint.
Miki watching over Yuki every time. Even checking every room?
Windows are broken
Also they were prevent her from going home.

I wonder why this is happening???

I was really missled by the summery I read. I kept waiting for the outbreak to happen. I had read all the summeries of the anime I thought I might like before watching any so I thought I had started the wrong one. What a twist it really got me. But I'm not going to watch this. Seems way to sad

Great twist, that gave me chills. I can't wait for the 2nd episode now.

Hope they don't rely too much on the comedy aspect though, it wasn't very good.

...Although considering the twist at the end, that might have been intentional.

Holy shit.

I was totally eating this up, loving all the kawaii and humour and falling for all of it. I have to say, I did note every time they looked outside and there was that sound, something felt off. I thought it was like, an impending earthquake or something.

They seriously did a fantastic job at dropping the truth there. Seriously caught me off guard, and now I'm looking forward to this series even more. Very, very unique, that's for sure!

Wow. My brain is still trying to take that in haha. Hope the rest of the series lives up to this episode!

I read the synopsis a while ago and had completely forgotten what the show was supposed to be about. About 5 minutes in I was wondering why I decided to watch this and at about 13 minutes I was thinking this would be better as a short. Needless to say I was completely unprepared and quite surprised at the way the episode ended. This could turn out to be interesting.

Although it was different from the manga, I enjoyed it. Production values looked fine and character design looked great.

The whole episode was cute and funny, with the ending being the best part. I thought the setting’s reveal (the real setting, not the “Yuki-can’t-deal-with-reality” setting) was done pretty well. Better than in the manga, I’d say.



Anyhow, I’m pretty satisfy with this 1st episode.
Looking forward to the next one. Kurumi’s episode....

OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!! WOW JUST WOW!

So Yuki was hallucinating all along???? Now I get why Kurumi needs the shovel, it's to either bury or kill the zombies!

Also Miki-kun shouting in the class! Because there is no one there! Fuck. Got mindblown in one episode! This anime is better paced than Higurashi it seems, Higurashi was good, but it took to long for the build up.

Also the creepy elements in the cute stuffs from the beginning like HELP ME on the chalk board. Damn!!!

I'm looking forward next episodes. Good animation, cute characters, and horror? I'm already hooked up.

EDIT: Just rewatched it. OMG. It made sense why Miki shout during in the class. Why Miki just went inside Home Economics room and sighed before apologizing to the class. Why Miki just keep on shouting at other classes. Why Kurumi bring the shovel all the time. Also at the roof scene you can see that after Yuki gone, the 2 characters are also gone, at first I thought it was a goof, but OMG it was the twist.

Also that is a grave on the roof scene! A fucking grave! No wonder Kurumi have the shovel and that other girl shouted at them for running there. It was a grave!

Also if you see carefully, the zombies were featured at the roof scene. What kind of person playing football that bend their shoulders like Zombie?

I have to admit the foreshadowing was pretty well done, and things make way more sense when you re-watch it. The whole thing about Miki yelling and barging in class, the other students, seeing everyone have to play along with Yuki's delusions as to not break her was pretty sad. Not to mention the sudden visual hints that appear for a second. It really made me want to watch the episode again.
At first I thought the first half, the first 20 minutes were pointless filler to make the shock factor of the big reveal more shocking, but it really did slowly build up this strange unease, like things were too perfect, and something fishy was going on with how the characters were acting and how others were questioning Yuki's sanity. (though I admit the whole dog chase dragged on too long)

I'm surprised. I thought this was just going to be mindless schlock with moe girls in the middle of a zombie apocalypse with KUH-RAZY characters and situations (I guess HotD killed my expectations on all zombie anime) but there was a surprising amount of thought put into the episode.

Will continue to watch. It's nothing amazing but it's definitely exceeded my expectations. 6/10 for now, above average.

I didn't have any information on this one (didn't read synopsis or tags and whatever). I just watched it for the heck of it.

I was a bit sleepy midway then suddenly plot twist worthy of my attention. I hope it'll be good.

This was pretty disappointing. Too many changes that don't even make sense or won't make sense in the future. Only good point was how portrayed reality and the undead, a lot more detail and realistic, before they were a bunch of black silhouettes with white eyes.

I was honestly excited when I heard this was getting an adaptation since I've started reading the manga over a year ago.


it's funny you say that because the mangaka who did the story is also in charge of the scrip for the anime

After rereading all of the posts I realized nobody caught on to the other Megumi reference.
Also, there are more than 20 hints throughout the episode regarding the true nature of the show and around 8 more regarding manga points. From scouring the internet and checking just about every forum I realized most people only noticed like 10 at most.

Ca you link where you saw the references please?
