The Zombie Apocalypse is in full swing and Akira Tendo is
living his best life. Best part is: he’s
no longer alone. He’s managed to rescue
his best friend, Kenchiro “Kencho”, and officially form an alliance with the
beautiful Zombie survival strategist Shizuka.
As they narrowly dodge the Zombie carnage, eyes soon look past Tokyo as
Akira decides to find his parents in Gunma.
But it’s anything but smooth sailing when Akira runs into the last
person he wants to see on his little vacation: his work horse Ex Boss. Suddenly, surviving the undead seems
preferable to the terror Akira must now relive.
Welcome back to how to survive the Zombie Apocalypse with
an unapologetic smile…or Zom 100. After
a pretty seamless, exciting and fun premiere, Zom 100’s sophomore outing dials
up the creative possibilities, amps up the suspense and provides some major
challenges Akira has to endure and not the ones he was hoping to ever face
again. It’s loud, it’s frantic and it’s
still entertaining as hell, so much so it’s hard to think of anything to
complain about but we’ll see how that sticks as I get into this weeks review.
The Gundam Anime Corner
Just an Anime fan sharing his opinions and love for Anime. Most reviews are from my own personal collection. But I might throw in some theatrical reviews as well if I see em. Def look for a lot of old school titles to show up here. It's where I got my Anime start and theyre titles that should never be forgotten.

T5W#478-Top 5 Hottest Alien Girls in Anime
It’s been a surprisingly good year for the Alien
franchise. Not only was it just
announced the other day that we’re getting a sequel to the best Alien video game
ever made, Alien: Isolation, but Alien: Romulus kicked all kinds of ass, becoming
the financially and critically successful entry in the franchise in a really
long time. This was no doubt thanks to
bringing Alien back to its basics and making the Xenomorphs just as scary as
when they first appeared in 1979, along with a few new surprises that scared
the mess out of me. And while Cailee
Spaeny didn’t take on an Alien Queen (sorry Spoilers), she does continue the
trend of tough as nails bad ass ladies to battle the infamous monsters. Which got me thinking: hot girls and Aliens
in Anime…how have I not done that Top 5 yet?
Well truth be told, for all the scifi Anime I do watch, there’s hardly
any of them. Ask me to do a Top 5
Hottest Scifi Ladies in Anime (or another Gundam themed one), that I can
do. Alien Girls, man that’s a tough
one. I did manage to think of five and
they’re defintiley worth fawning over and wooing more than the Queen B****, the
Alien Queen herself. Anyway, here are my
picks for the Top 5 Hottest Alien Girls in Anime.

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead-Part 1 Episodes 1-3
For three years, Akira Tendo has wasted away at his dead
end job with few breaks and no future in sight.
So when he awakens one morning to find Tokyo infested with Zombies and
he realizes that he wont have to go to work anymore, Akira celebrates his new
found freedom by creating a list of things he’d like to do before he becomes
one of the living dead. Chill out around
the apartment, do some day drinking, learn how to ride a motorcycle? Nothing is off limits so long as you don’t
get bit. It’s the end of the world but
for Akira Tendo, it’s the vacation he’s sorely needed for three years and he’s
gonna live it up.
Welcome to another October here at the Gundam Anime
Corner and this year we’re taking a look at a surprisingly refreshing twist on
the Zombie genre. Zom 100 made immediate
waves when it debuted in 2023 and, having seen bits of the pilot at Otakon that
year, I can see why. This isnt being
presented as your typical survival horror title. Sure there are plenty of the genres tropes
still present (it’s kind of tough to do a straight forward comedy of such a
nightmarish event). Zom 100 still wants
to joke about those tropes while still being honest and presenting a more
optimistic POV on a world overrun by Zombies.
It’s still scary at times, its still hard hitting. But damn if this isnt set to be one of the
best feel good Zombie tales ever told.
Let’s hop into it then.
