(9/14) Akira ends up meeting all sorts of characters in his travels, and wastes no time in encouraging them to pursue their own end-of-the-world life goals. Whether or not they survive long enough to make good on these ambitions is always up in the air, unfortunately.
(10/14) Whenever Zom 100 is allowed free-reign to lean fully into its zombie horror, the results are wonderful. An especially cool highlight is the Lucio Fulci inspired zombie shark that feels more than a little like an especially cool image from a Junji Ito story!
(11/14) As the series goes on, we get all kinds of genre homages. Zom 100 has the comedic chops and confidence to dip into the superhero genre and have it successfully work in the context of the story. And it's very funny.
(12/14) I already really love the cast of characters that is slowly forming, and can't wait to see what other weirdos get thrown into the mix. Especially as Zom 100 has shown explicitly that it's not afraid to get very strange, very quickly.
(13/14) So in short, definitely give Zom 100 a look! I love the central themes of making the most of your life and not giving up on your dreams, even if there's a zombie apocalypse! Especially if there is one! I can't wait to see where the series goes from here. Thanks so much!
