| Woah, I know the manga was great but they did an incredible job for the adaptation. Absolutely loved it! |
 |
| Insanely good first episode. Love the concept and the visuals were stunning. Should be a good time going forward. |
 |
| holy fuck i had forgotten how good early zom 100 was, man the story fell off so hard later but this was 24mins of pure sakuga fest. that's how you elevate from the source material, even though the art in zom 100 manga already looks solid. best first episode of the season so far for sure, killed it with the animation and music. lowkey censored zombie ohtori's boobs with blood but it's cool. also liked how they switched aspect ratios. this new studio killed it, big ups to bug films! let's see if they can maintain this quality. |

| Dude this was f*king sick!! Loved everything about it 10/10 first ep I lovedddd the music and art style and animation wow. How everything changed from grey to colourful was BEAUTIFUL. They did so well at showing how miserable his life was. That moment of freedom was awesome. The bucket list idea is great too!! Definitely keen to watch more. |
 |
| Oh such a fun premiere not to mention its Kanaboon whose doing the op, oh well! I like how the use of color goes beyond my wild imagination with all the colorful background, even if the surrounding looks not that good with all those zombies and another shit around. But it's still better than the shitty company works of life, im jelly of you. So yeah cheers on you, Tendou. Hope you can manage to fulfill your 100 list of the bucket dead before finally rest in peace on an eternal place ahead and no need to become the zombie... |
 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
| Now that is an opening episode. Just you people remember, its us white collar workers who are most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Yeah, I think I may have found my anime of the season. Holy shit. This was amazing. Phenomenal direction and animation with some great comedy, I loved every single moment of this episode. Cannot wait for the next one! |
 |
| Good grief, that was a great cinematic premiere, with lots of great colour and passion put into it. Great transitions, direction, and music, just all of it screamed a massive amount of entertainment value and fun. The premise is not all that complex, with a guy overworked so much he became a "zombie", only to wake up to a world full of zombies, so he doesn't need to go to work anymore due to the sheer carnage around the city. I don't particularly like zombie shows usually, but this one seems so well produced that it'll be one that could be the best anime of the season. Bug Films, a new studio with staff from Studio OLM, certainly is off to a great start with this one with such movie quality. |
This was a banger first episode daym I'm mesmerized |
| V excited to see where this goes. Enjoyed the pacing and establishing the backstory quick before getting onto the zombies. |
my roommate is a hamster & he is the most handsome man i know. |
| Now that is what I call an opening episode!! Probably half the season's budget gone in those 20 or so minutes though. |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| capitalism at its finest lol labor exploitation damn his first love became a zombie too |
| Best first episode of the season |
| My god, poor Akira. That corporate work life is hellish. I've heard about the long work hours in Japan and can't help but wonder if what was shown in the show is an accurate depiction of that life. This kid really needed a union. While I felt relieved that he no longer has to go to work, this unsettling feeling stayed with me. I think if I were in his position, I would feel exactly how he felt. The show did an excellent job conveying all the emotions Akira felt throughout his 3 years at work from his excitement at starting his dream job to slowly but surely falling into a deep depression. Not to mention, the strategic use of color was visually appealing and added to the storytelling. |
| Is the boss bald and wears a wig? touches his hair several times 1:50 touches his hair again 2:17 touches his hair for the third time 2:33 kinda brag about his hair 9:21 he looks so happy with his hair he loses his hair throught the fight (from 19:49 to 20:00) he looks bald in the middle of the fight his hair appears on t he ground at 20:09 so it must have been a wig all that time |
| Strong start. Great first episode. Wondering if it'll keep this up. Definitely anime of the season so far it seems (ignorning Jujutsu Kaisen S2). |
| . |
| Bro this looks great, I enjoy this so much more than the manga. Well it does have a strong start, so that might help as well. |
| this was a damn good first episode, really loved the color usage on the zombies |
 |
| Why didn't the zombie apocalypse felt real? Don't get me wrong, 1st ep was good, story was good but it all felt like the MC was having a dream for overwork stress. As the last movie he watched was zombie one and didn't get any sleep so could it be he imagining things.... Idk. |

| This show gave me Idetan Deities vibe with all the colors and stuff... Truly chaotic!!! And goddamn, those smooth animations!!! Its like the animators were using butter to animate it... |
| Despite not reading the manga (not much of a manga reader), I actually enjoyed the first episode. Wasn't expecting to be that great. Hard to believe that Ohtori (whom Akira has a crush on) is having an affair with that fat f*** boss, much to the MC's disappointment, but, still doesn't give up. After seeing his boss become a zombie and killing him was satisfying, sadly Ohtori also turned into a runner (another word for zombie). At least Akira managed to confess his feelings for her, despite already a runner, instead of killing her, he decided to leave her. Overall, the anime is really good! This maybe my favorite zombie genre anime since Highschool of the Dead, really looking forward of the anime and the episodes! 👍🏼  |
