Review: Zombie 100 – Bucket List of the Dead, Vol.13 + Vol.14

Zombie 100 – Bucket List of the Dead 13 by Haro Aso, Koutarou TakataTwo delightful fun volumes in this kick-ass series with tons of fantastic moments, some scary, some hilarious.

😍 I loved that we immediately go from what happened in the last volume (Shizuka bitten) to finding a cure for her. I have to say at times it was a bit too technical (reading this in German), but I loved that they thought of ways to cure her. Plus, I did think it was a bit too easily solved, but on the other hand I am glad that the manga didn’t go fully dark. This one does so well with mixing silliness with seriousness.
😍 In these two volumes we also have a heavy spotlight on Izuna, the girl who is immune! We see how Akira is trying to get her to be more involved and also wants her to find happiness. We get a backstory on her and why she is like she is. She hasn’t had the easiest life after her dad died, and we see how it has affected her and how that even let to her being disappointed that she was immune. Because that meant the days would still keep on going. I was delighted to see her figure things out and find something she loves. She really kicked ass when things got scary (and maybe a bit silly, haha).
😍 I was at first worried when we got to see that helicopter because again, I didn’t want this manga to go too dark, but for now I guess I shouldn’t have worried. What we got next was Monster Hunter Deluxe Zombie edition and I loved it. Though I am curious on if we will see this company again and what they will do next.Zombie 100 – Bucket List of the Dead 14 by Haro Aso, Koutarou Takata
😍 The covers are once again so fabulous!
😍 Seeing Kenchou and Izuna go on a trip together which led to some dramatic moments when Kenchou got home, I am glad that Izuna was there with him to assure him, a backstory which I loved as it gave more insight in Kenchou (and I really liked his grandpa), and then more zombies and also a visit to a grave with a surprise present there.
😍 Tsuru was such a great character and I love how dedicated he is to the cause. A lot of people could have given up, but he is dedicated and wants to help out.
😍 Seeing them get so far with the serum/vaccine and I hope that nothing happens because I would love to see someone create something that works against the zombies and make things safer and better.
😍 The art is still fantastic. I love how it can go from fully detailed and serious to more silly in a heartbeat.
😍 Akira x Shizuka. We all know what Akira said, and it seems that Shizuka has forgotten for a bit, but I love that Akira didn’t back down. He is proud of what he has said and I hope that Shizuka will remember!
😍 Going back on a road trip through Japan! I just loved seeing them meet new people and new places.
😍 The items on the bucketlist and see new ones being added and some being crossed off (some even double as someone else already it). I am excited that they still have so many great plans and I hope that they are able to fulfil a lot if not all of them.

All in all, fabulous two volumes with plenty of action, humour, silliness, seriousness, monsters, kick-ass scenes, and more! I cannot wait to read more of this series as the volumes come out~
