A mentally unhinged manga artist witnesses the beginning of a zombie outbreak in Tokyo, and he’s certain of only two things: he’s destined to be the city’s hero, and he possesses something quite rare in Japan—an actual firearm! (Source: Dark Horse) Notes: Nominated for the 3rd and 4th Manga Taisho Award (2010). Includes a new epilogue chapter that was released 4 years after the official end of the manga.

An abysmal cast of characters, poor plot and unfocused themes make this a drag to read.

An eminent, nearly perfect manga that is haunting and gripping in its apocalyptic spin.

Massive in scope yet about the intimacy of humanity at its core. Its a thrill ride that never to be forgotten.
