July is a jam-packed month for new anime releases, and arguably one of the most anticipated is the adaptation of Haro Aso’s horror-comedy manga Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead, which hits screens around the world this weekend.
The show follows the story of Akira, a 20-something office worker on the brink of burnout from his dull job. His previously humdrum life gets turned upside down when Tokyo gets hit by a zombie apocalypse.
Embracing the unexpected turn of events, Akira decides to tick off items on a bucket list of everything he wants to experience firsthand before the undead manage to get to him.
The release of the anime version proceeds an eagerly anticipated live-action adaptation of Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead that’s set to hit Netflix in August.
