I not going to make another lame left4dead comparison. ;) Well, that being said, I kept thinking this would get better and be a great take on a zombie apocalypse. I would have given the story a 4 (because I love zombie stories) if not for the rather generic characters, and some rather stupid choices made by the characters. After that the best thing this has going for it is animation.
Big killer for me, the fan service is just ridiculous. Don't get me wrong, I'm no prude, and can deal with an occasional flash, but this is just overboard and very often takes away from the serious mood of some scenes. I kept hoping as the story fleshed out that the frequency would decrease some, but it actually increases. Add to that the eventual addition of an 8-year-old girl to the group and it just got too uncomfortable.
That is it, I'm done. Moving on to hopefully better stories.
