I didn`t not like how this ep ended, with nukes being fired off.
It doesn`t really give the fans any hope for a second season, seems more like they want to end the anime with a BOOM :P
Too sudden/rushed if that is really the case.

The screaming "adult" lady looked crazed, stupid bitch :P
The adults at that mansion is tards.

Oh and I hate that teacher sect. dude so much, I was so glad when they were banished from the mansion XD
Hope one nuke hits right ontop of the bus haha.

The only good part about this ep was the ED song. I just hope that in the last ep the bus will gonna get in the EMP range and the zombies will eat that teacher.

So that's it for orgy bus? I am disappoint.

Oh, there's the sword. Kinda stupid that Saeko got a sword at episode 9 then she got one again here when she should have gotten the sword here first. Now for the vehicle, though I can think that it's the Humvee since they said they fixed it.

Lol, one scene Rei was just leaning on Takashi. Next scene she was already sitting on his lap XD. I don't remember Takashi pushing her down though. I liked these moments :D.

Shido flashback was shorter than I thought. Problem is it leaves a wrong impression on Rei's reason for hating him for anime-only viewers.

As I thought(and so does all manga readers), this will end at the escape part. Open ending which leaves a prospect for second season. Which I doubt Madhouse will do. Still, this was an enjoyable ride so let's just sit back and see the last episode next week. Kinda hoping for a troll episode where everyone dies but I don't think that's gonna happen \ (0 u 0 ) /

Now waiting for the manga, which I remember will come out this month.

Rei should just kill that Shido guy, but shes right, he's not even worth killing. So next episode is the last one, or are we gonna get a second season? And now I know why Rei flunked.

Great episode. The teacher got what he deserved. And honestly, why waste bullets on scum like him when he would be so much better off (and for our enjoyment) for the zombies to eat him. With that being said, why am I starting to think the series will have a downer ending in which all the characters end up dying? It might be that in most zombie related material, the endings are always downers with the poor survivors not making it (exceptions are Zombieland). Honestly the survivors made a good run, but in the end, it doesn't matter how many bullets and weapons you use, you usually end up dying in a zombie invasion.

Though this series has been nowhere as serious as previous zombie films and series and comics, so for all we know, the anime may very well have a happy ending and move on into having a couple of OVAs or a second season.

Wooh, that was a awesome episode waited for that a long time. The males ass gets kicked (he will probably die, since there are EMP-Missiles on the way to Japan and his bus will die due to that) and there was some plot too.

i think they are going to show us in next episode a big zombie fight in order to get out from the mansion and also takashi trying to find the parents...then they will leave a cliffhanger with a nuke being above Japan ready to blow up and they will drag this in a new season or ovas

shido should have been killed, then again he isnt worth killing


If I were in that situation I would kill that bastard without hesitation, slowly that he would feel every bit of pain >.< People like him doesn't deserve to live at all.


Anime is great, the whole episode is fine, Takashi is going to be leader, heeh great choice in my opinion, I'm little disappointed that there will be only 12 episodes and OVA next year, I was hoping for at least 24 episodes of this awesomeness...

Was that little scene with Takashi and Rei in the manga books? What happened when the camera refused to pan down? I was just thinking that Takashi leaned on Rei the wrong way, which caused the pain.

Still hoping/praying for a SaekoxTakashi ending. Rei is whack.

Shidos's sensei's plans were foiled once again!

And he would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids and that mutt... (Rei or Zeke?)

I actually enjoyed this episode. The complexities of the characters was interesting; and I enjoyed Takashi's moments with Rei.

Looks like they're blowing the earth up.... :x

..I feel like this anime/season should have been longer. There was a lot they could do with it and more they could explore.

Damn I'm gonna spazz if they don't make a second season, or end it with nukes.
WAYYY too short of an anime, and a good anime to be honest too. :\

i haven't seen the manga yet, but LOL there was a whole arc on the minibus thing? ahaha

Shido deserved what he got, hated that guy from the start. >:D but harsh for his students leaving too.

3.5/5
not much action, though it' s got a lot of char development since last few eps, so hope thats a hint for 2nd season :D

It was in the manga but it was a little different, Rei actually leaned on Takashi.

Since episode 3, I prayed that they would end this season with the takagi house "event". As long as they stay true to the manga the season finale will be epic and the season 2 opening will be awesome as well, provided it gets one.

Wow. That orgy bus thing certainly was underwhelming. Everyone was hyping it up since episode 1.

So glad this crap is ending next week. Highschool of the Dead is pretty much an anime about fanservice, and nothing more.

They've barely changed anything, and for all the idiots bitching about the ecchi scenes, the manga is FAR MORE ecchi than this, we didn't even see the bang bus scene.

Anyways, I'm going to miss HOTD, only one more to go.

I know how you feel, and from looking at the fall schedule I don't think there will be another anime in 2010 that will give me as much entertainment as HOTD.

I salute you MADHOUSE, for giving us an awesome anime in a lackluster year.

I haven't looked around the internet as to why this is but hopefully someone can answer it. ty in advance.


Episode 13 is an OVA, it won't be aired on TV.

Hmm I thought the teacher was gonna mess shit up big time inside the compound, bit anticlimactic to have him just leave. Not really seeing what they can pull out for the finale episode of the season considering they're still safe.

At this point, it's pretty much guaranteed that this will have an open ending with the 12 episodes and the manga far beyond the Takagi household chapters. Good thing this episode didn't have too much fanservice weirdness, but nonetheless the story has gone significantly downhill since the first episode. I'll probably end it with a 6/10 or so. Also, Rei was the best female in this show.

Another zombieless episode. I don't even feel like they're in danger anymore -___- I have very low expectations for the finale, which is kind of sad since the series started off so strongly...T.T

Oh well. Seeing Shido get rejected like that was a nice perk.

Yeah the governments are using asset denial here. There is a perfect example of this in Gears of War; in Gears you had the Hammer Strikes (laser satellite WMDs) that destroyed all major population centers and military centers to deny assets to the enemy (locust were scraping the human tech for their war effort) and to wipe out the majority of the enemy at once.

Here in HOTD you have the same thing, where governments are firing WMDs at major population and military centers in hopes of killing large quantities of the undead and denying any large population centers that would become overwhelming zombie hordes.

At least I think that is what is going on here...
