A review by dame_samara
Crueler Than Dead, Vol.1 by Tsukasa Saimura
5.0
This is the Zombie story that feels like something that hasn't been seen. We always know the survival side of Zombie media, but never something that encompasses a resolution to the problem.
The only piece of media that I can honestly say compares is Warm Bloods, and not because it's a romance. It's the only other piece of media where the Zombies are actively part of the media and are allowed "salvation."
This book is super interesting because we get the standard fanfare of a Zombie story through the eyes of a revived zombie trying to get the Vaccine from Point A to Point B. While not shying away from the fact that our protagonists spent the last year as zombies, and they remember it.
This manga captivated me from beginning to end and given that it is part 1 of 2. I will be hunting down the second volume so I can see the ending.
