As an “anarchistic gun loving redneck” I rather liked the show in spite of the excessive “fan service”. As an avid fan of sci-fi & horror films for almost 50 years, I’ve come to dislike the overdone “zombie” genre. HOTD put an interesting little spin on it.

In spite of any shortcomings it was never boring. If Nurse Dipweed got killed off early it would have been better. That yappy little mutt was no help either.

A few of my musings on the series here:

As of late it’s kinda painful to watch :) Just 3 eps to go unless they decide to prolong it with more

What I like about it above all else, is the fact that it takes alot of the things about anime in general that keep people watching, mashes them together in such a way that you can’t really call it clean and you can’t really call it haphazardly either. It is interesting, fun, and above all unique in an enviroment saturated with one formula title after another. I watched the first 2 episodes and was unsure whether I was goign to finish it, but once I started to get interested in all the quirky characters I found myself waiting more and more anxiously for each new episode. While I can’t point out any particular aspect that makes HSOTD stand out, as a whole I think its great.

[...] poikkeakaan kuin siten, että selviytyjäjoukko koostuu animesarjojen stereotyypeistä (kuten DarkMirage totesi), se on ainakin pitkällinen tarina, jolla ainakin vaikuttaa olevan useampia kortteja pelattavanaan [...]

Actually… as you know from WoW lore Sylvannas Windrunner was originally a high elf; that makes undead humans perma slow and stupid. We can never be both. But yea definitely though there has never really been a case where they have been both before. Perhaps in the future, but elf doooesn’t count!!

Back to HotD, it appears to be a good anime(first zombie genre?), but imo I think their just gonna screw up the ending and everything just goes downhill and it becomes another crap anime. But we shall see. ^^

Loaned WWZ from NLB after reading your recommendation. It was indeed an excellent read. Thanks!

Yay, you’re back!!

Always good fun to check out this site and see either an endorsement or biting review of some sort.

And I’m pretty sure tonnes of people have said this but;

HotD= (L4D2 – one guy + three chicks + boobz)^ (1HP of characters – Special Infected + headshots only)

Formula probably could be improved.

The manga is much better simply because I found the manga funnier and didn’t have such a horrible OP song. I also hate the constant fan service. The manga made it less distracting and actually…. Or perhaps it is just because it is in color and better created with SFX…. Either way the manga format seems to benefit the story better.
