Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I just recently finished school-live which was a really well done zombie apocalypse anime it was like dawn of the dead for high school. I really loved Sankarea: Undying Love and High School of the dead. I consider these three anime personally, to be the greatest zombie animes I have seen. I know of Is this a Zombie i think its called its ok but that isnt really zombie related. its just some goofy monster girl harem comedy. But if you know a good zombie anime, please make some recommendations ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnviousEnvy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Unfortunately I haven't watched much anime but I really like High School Of The Dead. I don't recommend it for those who don't like huge amounts of fan service (because it has a ton). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesomedude20 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Unfortunately I do believe you've now seen every proper zombie anime in existence currently. However keep an eye out for Zombieland Saga, which is an anime original airing soon I do believe. Looks odd, but I have decent hopes. Mostly riding on the fact that it's an anime original, and companies would be actually stupid to not put some form of effort into those, as the cost of them hurts real bad if the show flops.

Geano Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Ah zombie anime the stuff of all our nightmares. Just kidding of course its awesome stuff. ^^ I would have to say my favorite one would have to be Tokyo Ghoul. Its dark, and a bit tense at times though thats all I am saying no spoilers. Another you may want to check out is Zombie Loan, and Sonkarea. Honestly Sonkarea in my opinion is as good if not better then Tokyo Ghoul at least in terms of the anime manga is a different story with those. Though I think you'll enjoy all of these.

Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 tokyo ghoul is a zombie anime? Im sorry if this bothers you, but I couldnt even finish the first episode of tokyo ghoul the main character just completely bothered me lol Quote However keep an eye out for Zombieland Saga, which is an anime original airing soon I do believe. Its like the anime drama adaptation of shaun of the dead lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It dosen't bother me you have a right to your opinion some like it some don't. Sonkarea however is a more traditional zombie anime, and is very good though surprisingly less known.

Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Funny backstory on how I found sankarea undying love is that i was actually looking for is this a zombie out of boredom for something to watch but i couldnt remember is this a zombie's title and I accidently mistaken sankarea as Is this a zombie and was well then this is better than what i was trying to look for lol 2 minutes ago, ArchieKun said: Sonkarea however is a more traditional zombie anime, and is very good though surprisingly less known. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what other zombie themed animes have you seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 I havent seen any other true zombie animes that is excluding any of the cgi resident evil feature films honestly their not really anime more like video game adaptations parallel to the video games original universe. I seen tons of anime that have references to zombies in some way but its very brief or in others just resurrection than really zombies. Monster Musume had a zombie girl but that was just comedic relief and entertainment for the sake of monster girl fan service. Corpse Princess comes to mind but again its like resurrection than zombies still undead in relation though. I know that there is a manga called I am hero that is a zombie apocalypse story i havent gotten the chance to get around to reading it though. Just as I was typing this Super Sonico the animation had a episode that was themed for zombies. They werent zombies but the whole episode was setup as a zombie outbreak on a cruise ship which heavily reminded me of a resident evil game for the gameboy colour called resident evil: Gaiden wonder if it was nitroplus's way of making that obscure shout out to resident evil fans with super sonico lol.

the_twig Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 That’s basically it for zombie anime unfortunately. There’s Is This a Zombie!?, but that’s really just a harem series. There’s also Le Chevalier D’Eon, but that stopped being about zombies after about 3 episodes and started being about a spy hunting magical poets using Bible passages to kill him. While that sounds cool, it wasn’t very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniMeFReaK Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Zombie Loan is the only thing I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beocat Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Well, a quick tag search brings up these anime (click here for the anime-planet list) of zombie related shows. It is a very small genre. I have no favorites myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazino Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Koutetsujou no Kabaneri - I assume this is what you would regard as a old-fashioned zombie anime, though they're called Kabane (dead corpse) in the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Iron fortress of kabaneri I remember seeing something about that anime but i didnt realize it was a zombie anime cause of the steampunk kinda look it had. I'll have to look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohloo Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 The only zombie related anime I've seen is High School of The Dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatsune_Werewolf Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 So digging through my mass of anime magazines I was reading through one of my issues of otaku usa august 2016 bimonthly issue to be exact, but anyways they to had a zombie manga top 10 list i know its not anime but I thought I share it as mutual interest to everyone joining into this thread. 1) Fort Of Apocalypse 2) Biomega 3) Magical Girl Apocalypse 4) Sankarea: Undying Love 5) Living Corpse 6) School - Live 7) Tokyo Zombie 8 ) Reiko the zombie shop 9) Grand Guignol Characters 10) Hellsing That was otaku usa's top 10 zombie manga count, in addition to those titles there is also I am a hero and another one called Hour of the zombie something from what i read of its review that is similar to high school of the dead in some context, its at a high school and the zombie apocalypse starts with a love triangle, way cliche lol ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I haven't watched many zombie related anime, but Gakkougurashi! was pretty good. The only other zombie one I've seen that comes to mind is High School of the Dead, which didn't do much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) I would say Princess Resurrection probably qualifies, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. And I just finished the first episode of Zombie Land Saga and thought it was hillarious. Will be a challenge to keep it fresh for a whole season though.

Wodahs Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 ok ill come say hi and add to the list as I haven't seen them mentioned (and its a thread finally worth commenting on after so long) I rather enjoyed these two the first more so (its a movie not a series) [mal type=anime id=28625] and [mal type=anime id=5034] but with the other zombie animes out there that ive watched and enjoyed these to where up top of the list hope they are to peoples likings one way or another as for zombieland sage sorry dude but after seeing first ep I don't think it will be holding my interest too long but ill give it a few more I probably should add this one too as I just remembered it and had enjoyed it as well but its a little different than youd expect for a zombie series [mal type=anime id=16009] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
