Review:

High school of the dead is one of those anime that you can’t help but to like! The animation and the drawing is pretty cool. The story is amazing. The character’s structure is unbelievable. You might think what makes this anime any different than any zombie apocalypse story out there? For starter the story revolves around high school students! Second the fact that the characters are pretty young make them smart about how to fight or handle zombies. Plus, each character specialize in something which makes their group almost perfect. Its like they complete each other. You have the smartest girl in school, a gun otaku, the kendo club president, the slacker, and the lover. These are the perfect elements of a successful story! So yeah, H.O.T.D is one of the best anime out the and you most defiantly have to put it on your must watch list!

Here is a trailer of the anime:

Overall Rate: 10/10
