Very good zombie action. The series is jam-packed full of fanservice though that at times you'd think you were watching something about giant bouncing balls. But if you can deal with that and love zombie survival stuff, this is the show for you!

Sydnid

Decent, yet unfinished zombie survival series, don't expect an ending or closure in the anime or manga. Contains quite possibly the most ridiculous fanservice shot ever seen, think bullet + breasts. Watch it for the stylish zombie action.
