    Awesome's back, and boy did it feel good.

    I personally thought Mad was the lucky one, but he's probably dead now.

    I didn't know nukes could be used that way (though I always wondered what happened if they explode in the atmosphere). It makes sense to use it as a "humane" way to render a country useless, though I wonder if some of those missiles would have simply nuked high-priority sites all the same.

    Only thing that was out of place was that Rei still lanced at the heart.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Ho... And I was wondering why they bothered to explain it because everybody should know the EMP effect even if not the theory behind it. But I suppose it largely depends on whether you have read the right stuff or watched a suitable movie or documentary.

    Quite a nice last episode. I really felt like they got back on the right track. Saya's parents also turned out to have been decent enough people, even if they didn't seem too good at saving their own lives...

    Well, lets just say: Im glad its finally over.

    The amount of stupid in this episode was so all-encompassing that it hurt my brain beyond being able to feel the pain anymore.

    Hopefully there´s no second season...I just know that I couldnt stop myself from watching, even though I should know better :/

    Manga only has 27 chapters due to stupid long hiatus. This series overall animated about 16~18 chapters. So if they ever make a sequel... it will take several years. Heck... only 27 chapters in about 4 years of publication is quite ridiculous

    ?

    I've played MW2. I never thought of the EMPs there as nukes though, and I can't recall whether the 25-streak nuke does that. People just can't get kill-streaks like that when I'm around

    edit: unless you meant campaign-mode.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Well.
    That would make an awesome version of Left 4 Dead Japan

    It was in mw2 campaign, not in multi - replay it again, Bill.

    I felt that episode 11 was a bit rushed but episode 12 more than made up for it

    That said i think my excitement for this show diminished considerably as it progressed, the main characters stopped being as interesting as the background of blood and murder and the myriad of secondary characters that were breaking down in tiny pieces with each episode

    Also i wasn't a fan of the harem aspect, i expected the characters to be morally devious in one way or another seeing as they were in the midst of a zombie apocalypse but the way they portrayed Takashi made him look like another Makoto Ito

    Don't take me wrong i'd still very much like to watch a second season but some changes would be nice such as less fanservice and more main character development. Oh, and no more supersonic tits, please >_>

    I simply cant get over the exaggerated combat moves. Bujishima topped it all in this last episode with he mega-ultra-super jump combined with an aerial forward spin...WTF?!
    The combat abilities of these characters killed the suspense of being in danger...and when the show-creator suddenly decided to put them into acute danger, it killed the believability.

    But I thought it was fully sick.

    Fauli... you must realize how ridiculous it sounds to complain of lack of realism with this anime in particular

    About the lack of realism, Saeko should have sliced an entire zombie in half there.
