Picking a camper, fighting an evil boss, a bucketlist to be filled, and oh yes, zombies, so many zombies!


I decided to continue this series! I already was thinking of doing so, but I just recently found out that this one is coming out in German, which makes it cheaper for me to get the series! So now I can continue reading, ah, being able to read German is a blessing. I just love this series and I will be buying books 4/5/6 soon!

In this one our guys are up to their antics again! Crossing off things from the bucket list and the first item had me laughing! The guys were acting like kings in a jewellery store! Next up they decide that Tokyo isn’t the best place to stay (gee you wouldn’t say looks at the horde of zombies that are just spilling out of everything) and what is the best way to travel to Akira’s parents? By camper/mobile homes! I had such a laugh at these guys and their enthusiasm. Especially when they got to the store! I was laughing because they were being so loud and I was just like, shhhh guys, I know that you are excited but hello zombies??? Did you forget about it? XD I loved seeing all the camper/mobile homes though, this place had a BIG variety~

After that things turn a bit grimmer and we meet someone from Akira’s past! Yep, it is time for the vile humans of the apocalypse to show their face! This is so typical in zombie stuff. All the things are already horrific and our MCs are just trying to make it through things and then they bump into villains, humans like them, but who took the whole zombie stuff as a way to have power. To make humans suffer. I wanted to punch the guy so much, and also shake Akira a bit. I know he didn’t have a choice given what was coming, but he should have known about the dirty tricks his boss would use.

You tell him, Akira! Also, Shizuka’s speech at the end was inspiring. My library is going on strike (good for them) so I’ll have to pause with this series for a bit, but I’m really loving it!

This is the best volume yet! We get some conclusion to the tension between Akira and his abusive boss in this volume. I'm completely invested in this series now and can't wait to read the next one!

Akira sets out to find his family in his hometown with his best friend Kencho, but on the way the two are setback when Kencho is injured and Akira's RV is damaged, now Akira has to do the one thing he never thought he'd have to do again; slave away for his former boss. We get some nice character progression for Akira and great backstory for Shizuka. This series is keeping me engaged and I'm liking it more and more.

Encore une fois, ce manga arrive à allier des moments étonnement drôles avec des moments bien plus sombres et qui nous poussent à réfléchir sur notre vie. Le manga n'hésite pas à aborder des thèmes comme le harcèlement et même l'emprise que peuvent avoir d'autres personnes sur nous. On a une vraie évolution de nos personnages dans ce tome et on en apprend bien plus sur Shizuka (mon perso préfère).

The fact that Akira goes back to his old slave-working-self when he encounters his former boss is just a weird turn of events. It is another form of zombie-ism, one can say, which is clever to convey in this setting. On its own, it just feels out of place, but since it was, in a way, a manner of eliciting Shizuka's backstory, it sort of made sense.
