Preliminary (7/12 eps)

Everybody that is rating this low and saying it’s just some silly goofy anime that is a little boring isn’t getting it.

This show is based on somebody in a zombie apocalypse that decides to make and complete bucket list before he dies. The concept is not supposed to be a zombie survival. People are really just missing the point. This show is literally about somebody exploring existentialism and the purpose of life. In which, Zom 100 uses a zombie apocalypse as the motif to further exaggerate what it truly means to live. Akira is not trying to survive. He wants to live a full ...

This anime is pure CINEMA. I waited a long time for this anime and it surprised me in an incredible way. Both the art and animation are incredibly beautiful and solid, the cinematography is insane. The direction behind each episode is extraordinary. The first episode is extremely exciting, remarkable and fun. I can safely say that it has one of the best first episodes of all time. This is a zombie comedy that uses the apocalypse in a brilliant way to show you how exploration affects you and how people steal your dreams and passions. A very entertaining masterpiece that inspires you to free yourself ...

Zom 100: Zombie ni Naru made ni Shitai 100 no Koto has taught me that people don’t know what “dystopia” means anymore. For the last 5ish years, I’ve seen a lot of complains on why the generic isekai we get by the dozens are popular, but I find the answer to that question very obvious: escapism, as they provide an outlet for MC-kun to get free from the burdens of the real world, and enter a fantasy world where he can do whatever he wants, while the high school age viewers places themselves in his place. Zom 100 offers the same idea but for the ...

'Zom 100' is surely the most hyped and talked about non-sequel anime of this year. The first episode of this anime can probably hook anyone to give it a try. It was so damn good. But as soon as you start to pay attention to the characters and how they act, you should start noticing some major flaws of this anime, which might be the reason this falls into the 'This is not for everyone' territory.

Animation (8/10): I know that the plot is the first thing to discuss in a review generally. But all the hype around this show was mostly because of its animation. ...

Zom 100 has a lot going for it, especially in its premise and first three or so episodes. This anime has an absolutely stellar first episode in particular, but as I continued to watch the story unfold, and like a zombie left out in the sun for too long, I realized that things could only get worse from here.

Zom is a lot of style and very little substance. The animation, the choreography, the striking use of colorful paint in the place of zombie blood, everything on a visual level is just amazing. The opening song is an ABSOLUTE banger, and the both of the ...

Alright, let’s see what all the noise is about.

Zom 100: Zombie ni Naru made ni Shitai 100 no Koto, or better known by its English title, Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead is a zombie-themed anime centered around the shenanigans of our main character, Tendou Akira and his survival in a zombie apocalypse. In this review, my main goal is to try and find the answer to this question: where is all the praise coming from?

Tendou Akira finds a job at an office and at first, everything seems what your everyday office workplace would be like. But as Akira continues to work there, he ...

After a period of zombie genre overexploitation, this anime is released without much ambition to be relevant in this realm. Having only watched 8 episodes (all the main characters have appeared), I have come to the realization that this series is primarily a comedy lacking in humor, a drama lacking in interest, and a romance based on the most insipid ecchi elements. The zombies themselves possess a mishmash of characteristics but lack any distinct personality beyond bleeding rainbows. It is entertaining to watch due to the spectacle of its visuals, but it feels empty both in terms of its characters and its messages.

Out of all the Anime airing this season, Zom 100 is probably by far the most promising one in terms of production. It is a novel thing nowadays that Studios in their very first attempt seem to get things so incredibly right in almost every department, and then there is Visual Flight.

Plot: It's a very simple premise to begin with, a little convenient and bordering on pure fantasy, but engaging nonetheless. At first glance Zom 100 is essentially a survival horror amidst a zombie apocalypse, with the absence of horror due to the mindset of certain characters. In that way, it seems to be an ...

Zom 100: A Bucket of Disappointment?

While Zom 100 has its fans, it's certainly not without its flaws.

One-dimensional protagonist: Akira's obsession with his bucket list overshadows any real character development. He comes across as childish and lacks depth, making it hard to connect with him.

Generic supporting cast: Other characters feel like tropes rather than individuals. Their motivations and backstories are underdeveloped, leaving them forgettable.

Predictable plot: The story often takes predictable turns, relying on tired zombie apocalypse cliches instead of offering something fresh.

Cringey attempts at comedy: The show's attempts at humor can often fall flat, resorting to juvenile slapstick and awkward jokes. Some find it grating ...

it should have been a one-episode OVA. The first episode was pretty good and set up an interesting premise. It quickly went downhill after that. All the character are thin and underdeveloped. They all get one or two traits and that's it. I couldn't tell you much about the main character besides the fact that he hated his job. The story is predictable and ends on schmaltzy bullshit about connections with other people being good and following your dreams, as if you haven't heard that a million times before. There were some good action scenes and creative moments, but the premise and characters are too ...

This show is pretty pogchamp for zombie genre fans and the animation do be pretty. However, it gets hit with delay every other week to the point where you kinda lose interest in what's going on bc last episode was 2 weeks ago and there's already a new delay announced after the one you're watching, killing all the hype. Watching this as it's airing is an absolute chore so if you're interested just wait for it to be finished.

The premise is the strongest part of the show. Characters are fine and likable enough. Action is pretty to look at. Comedy doesn't always land but most ...

If I were in the mood for an anime where a kid incessantly screams at me and had hoped for a more captivating experience, I'd opt for Black Clover. The initial episode seemed promising, setting the stage for what could have been an intriguing anime, but instead, it shattered my eardrums with one of the most unlikable, one-dimensional main characters. Oh, the protagonist quit his job to complete a bucket list – how profoundly moving, right? It's like, super deep, man, you just don't understand, bro. I do hope there's an incredible overarching plot that I missed out on, but from my perspective, it's just ...

I really wanted to give this anime a positive review. The first episode skillfully blended narrative and performance. It was like a breath of fresh air waking up my drowsy senses. The portrayal of the "black" company life in the first half was both humorous and despairing: obscured angles in the cramped office, or dimly-lit horror vibe outside the office. The visuals even gradually shifted to black and white without me realizing. When the protagonist, Tendou Akira, started the zombie chase, the animation exhibited astonishing expressiveness while transitioning to color – it was truly remarkable. On top of that, there were so many splendid moments ...

All of the "Mixed Reviews" I see here all basically say the same thing: It's too silly for a zombie related anime." Or "It's too silly for comedy based around zombies."

News flash! With the name "Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead", you shouldn't expect a serious zombie show! You SHOULD expect silly humor.

I saw one commenter say "I don't know if this is based on a manga and I don't care." This is a preemtive strike on those who DO KNOW there is source material and on those who have read it. I read that comment as ...

A departure from what folks have come to expect from survival horror, Zom100 is a refreshing take on the popular premise. The show has measured the pulse of its primary demographic by depicting the hopelessness of working in a corporate environment, and succinctly inverts the dreadful scenario into an expression of joy born from conflicting circumstances. From the visual style to the narrative beats, the show makes it clear that it intends to show the brighter side of life from the perspective of a worst case scenario. The characters have experienced growth in a way that challenges the conventions of the genre, and this is ...

The first episode of this show was absolutely phenomenal. It's about the MC feeling overworked, exhausted and stressed out to the brink of feeling suicidal, all of this because he sees himself trapped in a toxic unfulfilling working environment. So when a world-ending event such as a zombie apocalypse proves to be a golden opportunity for our protagonist to free himself from the shackles of his workplace and start doing the things he always wanted to do, you know you're in for something special. This goofy idea combined with the silliness of the scenes where the protagonist comes out unscathed while he rides his bike ...

Starts fresh. Falls into already seen narratives.

The thing I probably loved the most about this show, was how characters were mostly developed through natural dialogue, a very intimate solution, that made me interested in their stories as if they were friends of mine. But then, the annoying cliché flashbacks kick in... and with the intent of getting the characters closer to each other, they, instead, manage to get the viewer far away from any involvement with them.

That, of course, is just one example. More generally, the show progressively replaces its extravagant, yet original ideas, with dull, unoriginal ones, and flattens its finesses one by one. ...

The first few episodes is amazingly animated and very fun, and the anime keeps a steady quality until the german girl is introduced. Her character is uninspired and the rest of the anime drags and feels like they were running out of ideas.

The art direction and color use in this anime is astounding and colorful which definately helps make the anime more enjoyable, however it cant fix the boring copy pasted concepts that plague the latter half of the anime.

Despite the problems with the second half of the anime, the first half is a blast, making use of characters being put in absurd situation while ...

This show had a really strong start with an interesting premise and a very neat outlook on the "what if" scenario of a zombie apocalypse... but the longer it went on, the worse it seemed to get, and the huge hiatus that delayed the last few episodes did some major damage for those watching as it released. Overall, I liked this show, don't get me wrong, but the last 3 episodes (while trying to excuse the hiatus) took my score from a 6 to a 1. I'm desperately trying to avoid spoilers, but the story was pretty much mediocre, the comedy (which really doesn't match ...
