Zom 100: Zombie ni Naru made ni Shitai 100 no Koto

I'm truly in awe of how amazing this anime adaptation is so far! I have been a huge fan of the manga since that first fan translation back in 2019 and ever since then I've kept up with every chapter. Of course then I saw the announcement of the adaptation and I got even more excited. "One of the very few genuinely good zombie manga is getting an anime AND a live action adaptation?" I thought to myself. I couldn't believe it and still cannot believe it, yet here we are with the first episode. It was truly everything I wanted in the opening episode and way WAY more. I love how much time they spend showing just how awful his work environment is, which works perfectly into the second half of the episode. Honestly the only complaint I have is just I want more episodes and soon enough that complaint will no longer exist. I'll update this review when the full anime comes out without any spoilers of course. But yeah, check this anime out and when you're done consider reading the manga. You will not regret it.

Zombies, everyone's favourite bad guys in the previous decade but over time, it lost its charm as more and more titles started blending together, making their existence entirely about its setting rather than using the setting to tell a good story.

This is exactly where Zom 100 succeeds. With just one episode, it has started a great story which has me keen and excited for what's to come. Going into the anime, knowing little to nothing about it, I was caught off guard by how good it was. Seriously, one of the best anime openers of all time.

The show packs a stylistic punch unlike any other Zombie media I have seen. The anime really used its format to play with the visuals and elevate the source material and oh boy, did it work.

Really good stuff.

I didn't know this show existed until just a few days ago, and that's thanks to a YouTube channel called "Super Eyepatch Wolf". (by the way he's great go subscribe to him, he makes great video essays). He made a video where he basically talked about his favorite things that came out this year, and in this video he talked about this anime.

The first thing that grabbed my attention was its clever and original premise. The idea of a guy trying to survive during a zombie apocalypse, as he makes a bucket list of 100 things he wants to do before he gets turned into one, instantly grabbed my attention.

Another thing I love about this show is the goofiness of it. There is a zombified shark with human legs in this.

Okay like so many I've seen about zombies this one's was like a good head start the beginning was okay but then as I progressed along the episodes I got feed up with everything about the idea of the anime the plot the story and even the protagonist like what the hell, if I had the ability to delete every memory of it from my brain I would in a heartbeat don't get me started on the so called comedian who gets naked to perform an act to his audience as for the others I just say go to hell, but no hard feelings on the creator though I don't even like bad mouthing someone else's work but maybe it was aimed at a different set of audience like kids am just saying but this time this anime wasn't for me in the first place.

This animation is pure CINEMA. I was really surprised by this anime, which I had been waiting for a long time. The cinematography is amazing, and the animation and art are also superbly done. Every episode has an incredible direction. The first episode is amazing, thrilling, and enjoyable. It features one of the greatest opening episodes ever, I think I can state with confidence. This zombie comedy masterfully shows you how the end of the world impacts you and how individuals may steal your passions and aspirations by using the apocalypse. An incredibly fascinating masterwork that encourages you to break free from these influences in order to fully live your life. Memoriam mori!
