I will keep it simple. All Zomm 100 it's a metaphor. The zombies aren't important, the important are the "Living dead" people. And with this I mean people living without hope of live, dead people that breathe, study and work, cry, hate and aren't waiting to experience nothing more till they die. The context is a metaphor of "The worst case scenario" literally the apocalipsis. Literally a Context where you can excuse yourself to only focus in surviving. But the idea is showing us how even with zombies we can do whathever we want that makes us free and happy. If th characters can doall this stuff in the apocalipse, you can travell even without money and that kind of message.

The characters are a metaphor of problems and views of the current Japanese societty. They are simple. But they need to be simple, they just are meant to give you a message. For example the boss it's there just to make you realize how your boss can manipulate you, and how you could front face him. The antisocial it's there to show how social distancing could make us think we want to make others suffer, and be as alone as possible meanwhile probably we just really want to be closer to more people and be a better person. The protagonist are the same. No one it's hard to understand because they need to be as understandable as possible and give you the message as clear as possible "live"

This isn't the kind of existentialism shows where the story and characters want you to live using methods to make you sad and filling worst about yourself because you are not living enought. They try their best to be as happy and free as possible, even if sometimes they find the problems and how much they do affect them, they face them the best they can and it makes you just light the flame of YOLO in you, and try to smile as much as you can. It's just really fun and entertaing.

-The Opening and Ending are incredible, the lyrics summarise the whole show essence, and the music is great too.
-The OST... well, isn't the best I have heard but isn't a problem at all, is a good OST even if it is his weak point, and that only talks about how good is this anime.
-the Rhytm is preety good too
-The story As you can Imagine i considere it great
-the characters are funtional, identifiable, charismatic and simple, just great characters
-problems: none, nothing makes the experience bad at all

I love the fact that this is the first anime delivered by BUGS films knowing their story, and knowing the message of the show I feel really happy when the chapters got delayed, because I can see people is working in a healthy way.

Just to be clear with some people I read in reviews, no, that it has zombies doesn't mean it has to be about suspense. And talking bad about the series because it's not the walking dead only means you didn't understand the most basic about the show. And no, having simple protagonist isn't a problem, it's actually a
strong point with the show that helps to deliver the message.

The show goes to the Japanese, but personally I felt eveysingle message they trhow to me. This wasn't just entertaining, it was some therapy I needed. I'm finish this meanwhile I'm in a burnout and I cryed a lot, defenitly this show changed my life and how I see myself, my life, and even my dreams. This show was made to change lives, and in me it worked.
