Review of Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead

On one hand you're about to go on a cheesy romp and have a great time in the zombie post apocalypse, laughing along with the infectiously optimistic Akira as his biggest worries become getting a cold beer and how he gets himself into ludicrous situations. On the other, if you were maybe waiting for a wake up call, are stuck in life or haven't even begun to live yours yet, then watch this season and give it some thought. You don't have to get it all right, you just can't stop living. Because if you do, even if you have a job, a family, wealth... thenyou're no different than the mindless walking dead, shuffling or charging headlessly without purpose just waiting to burn out or get stomped out by something or someone. And worse, you're likely to hurt people along the way.

It's okay to be envious, selfish or bigoted, we all stumble and sometimes the resentment builds up and it feels impossible to get out of it, but you only stop mattering once you give up. You can fix it.
Write that bucket list. Put down those stupid ideas that seem impossible and just go for it. You'll fail, repeatedly, but you'll have drive and you'll meet people along the way. Keep gaining momentum, keep asking questions, start caring about people, show them your smile and never give in to the pessimism enough to let it grind you to a halt. Keep fighting for the person who needs it the most, especially if it's you.

This show is an instant classic, it "goes harder than it has any right to" and it is eminently clear that everyone involved from writers, animators, musicians, voice actors and production all were passionate about getting this done, and it seems maybe to their detriment as it took a good while for the season to finish. It may be they didn't follow their own advice and burnt themselves out, but here's hoping they pick themselves up and push forwards, gifting the world more amazing shows.

Thank you Bug Films.
