holypoop said: Drop some of the fanservice and I might be able to take this seriously. well the manga is like this so I'm not surprise. |
  |
| whats wrong with fanservice? im ok with it if its well done in a good way. just saw it again with subs.. animations quality is just awesome! |
| I don't care if it subbed or not but this episode is good. BTW the subbed is crap that's from Crunchyroll |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| I thought it was pretty good. I didn't mind the fan service, but it bothered me how it never actually showed anyone bludgeoning a zombie skull. It just showed blood splatter or something. But regardless, I think it is entertaining, so I will definitely keep watching it. |
| [commie] subs are out btw. sofar 3different subbed vers. |
| Well yeah I just saw that but perhaps there will be a better subber |

anime_n00b said: But... Lets just say I wasted alot of time just to see this... 6/10 where it stands...its just too cliched right now for me I mean its like Dawn of the Dead..COMPLETELY just with anime/a HS/fanservice.. hoping the other episodes can pull it for me where everyone else thinks it is..I think.. and I hope it does.. that I will like it alot more when the plot starts to get just a little bit more originality.. What exactly are you even expecting? This is a show about zombies. Of course it's going to be like every other zombie movie. It's not like they can pull out some huge miracle plot twist with only a bunch of high school students unless they dual wield unlimited ammo pistols and go L4D on some zombie ass. And did anyone notice how the bgm resembled the 28 Days music? That is some awesome shit right there. |

| Its really well done. I kinda liked, even thoughs I dont like horror's xD |
 |
| I've been waiting for this for a while now. Now I'm gonna see Saeko in action! |
 |
| Am I the only one who's getting a desynced video/audio for Commie's subs? >_> |

| epic episode... fanservice? whats wrong about that? It goes well in this ANime... |
| Although the idea is not original (reminds me of RE), I loved it. I like the type of horror when the characters are in despair, like now the whole students in the school being zombies and chasing them. I hope it continues the same well. |

Hente said: Am I the only one who's getting a desynced video/audio for Commie's subs? >_> Yeah mines out of sync too. |

holypoop said: Drop some of the fanservice and I might be able to take this seriously. Yeah seriously. |

 |
| That...was awesome. I was worried about how much fanservice it would have, but it wasn't that bad. As long as they're showing panties and stuff while the action is still moving, I'm ok. I hated how they went out of their way to show Rei's skirt when she fought the first zombie though...kinda took away from the action. But aside form that, this will still most likely be my favorite summer show. Can't wait for the next episode |
| As many have said very high production values on this so far. And also gratuitous fan-service. Alot sure happened in this first episode, maybe too much though. Introducing the characters killing the main protagonist's best friend off and reconciling the relationship between Rei and Takashi within half an hour seems a little too much to take in. Seems good so far though. Also the sakura trees with the road beneath stained with blood and bodies was WOW. |
 |
| The downside may be the fanservice, which I'm usually very picky about, but I didn't even care by the time I got to the end of the episode... o___o Amazing....... |
| Still downloading,,,damn actually I hope Rei didn't show up in anime ver, but that definitely impossible :p... waiting for Saeko's action like the other HotD fans are doing right now XD... |
Hente said: Am I the only one who's getting a desynced video/audio for Commie's subs? >_> Just watched Commie's sub and it was synced just fine, maybe they updated the torrent? IDK. Anyway that ep was some sick shit. |
 |
| Just finished watching the first episode. Just fucking awesome, freaking awesome. Loved simply in every department. Plot, pacing, voice acting, characters, music, animation, art everything was simply top notch imo. Not saying that compositor remade my favorite soundtrack from Resident Evil movie which made episode even more awesome. Fucking 5/5 |
| Woah a lot of fanservice and they didn't censored lol. That was awesome, a great start with zombies yahoo:D Rei is annoying as ever. Anyways poor guy, Takashi's best friend. At the end was cute, hugging when there's a lot of zombies at the rooftop :P |
| I like this. Very good first episode. I didn't mind much about the fanservice, but I never really do. |

| OMG! That was truly awesome! I thought at first that it will be badly censored but I was wrong! I'm glad I was! Can't wait for the next episode! And new chapter is coming out soon too! |
 |
| Great episode, brilliant animation. I'm already looking forward to the next episode.. wow. I'm speechless! I'm not really a fan of fanservice but it didn't really bother me. |
| Thank God Madhouse got this. Amazing episode. GreyWinged said: So. Those of you complaining about the service. Evisceration, cannibalism, and gratuitous violence is fine but bouncing tits and panty-clad ass is going too far? No. Mixing a genuinely fine horror anime with cheap ecchi is just plain wrong. I mean, wtf? Ecchi should stay in its own category. |

| It adapted almost perfectly from the manga, actually I'd say it was better than the manga for this episode. tbh I thought it was going to be some PoS resident evil rip off in the anime, needless to say I was surprised. Can't wait for Saeko and more Saya! |

| win.. hahaha fanservice too many loollolol |

| It is all I hoped it would be ^^ 5/5 On another note, the song that started playing when Hisashi turned into a zombie reminded me a lot of the song from 28 days later >.> |

At first I was worried that they will take out the character interactions and social commentary from this, but I am happy that I was wrong. 5/5 This,alongside Shiki( if animators do not mess it up) will be the best shows of the season for me. |

| It was every bit as good as I expected it to be. Although Rei was SO annoying... especially at the end, after the ending. |
werrstonJul 5, 2010 3:32 AM
| It's certainly better than all the other trash this season. I'll keep watching. |
 |
| Better than i thought about this one ... |
 |
| Amazing... Just amazing; Boobs, panties, zombies... What more can you ask? |
 |
| nice. 5/5 cant w8 for ep.2 |
