It'd be sick if this was an actual anime riff on Zombieland, but alas, it probably isn't.

Who would play Japanese Woody Harrelson...?

I'm super excited to see what the visuals will look like and since the cast suggests it will be an harem series, I pray one of the girls will be a long-haired tallflat character who doesn't have a complex over her own chest and doesn't care about it. We don't have enough of those in male-targeted series and this season we have Narumi from Harukana Receive.

Jeez, to think I had some hope for this. I know it's too early to tell but all sings point to this being some stupid harem... because we don't have enough of those already Rolling Eyes
Please, Mappa, prove me wrong

I trusted Mappa because they're a studio with amazing title so far but that casting, whatnot with 6 girls and one guy, is superbly disappointing.......! It's as if we had not enough upcoming harem shows or something! Come on! I'm still giving this a chance since I also trusted Cygames but I'm not putting much on the table.

...okay...

I don't think harem anime involving zombies have been used that often, outside of the monster girl variety ("Mon Musu", "Rosario + Vampire").

It doesn't matter. This is not "refreshing twist".
Harem is so overplayed and the "harem with a twist" is so common that anything made with it will never be seen as "refreshing".
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they shouldn't do it. But their sensationalist marketing was stupid. That's why I hate these ads that don't reveal anything about the show when it ends up being something you already hate.
They should just make it clear what it was about since the first reveal.

Well, I'm interested because of MAPPA.
