"All these zombies and I'm going to get killed by an Asian woman driver"
Groverdox30 October 2023
The eighth episode of "Highschool of the Dead" surprisingly begins on Air Force One where the President and his chairman have both been bitten by zombies. The chairman (?) begs the prez to give up the codes for their intercontinental weapons, fearing foreign invasion given how weak the US is with the zombie pandemic. The president refuses and gets a bullet.

Back with our gang of spiky haired and melon breasted zombie survivors, they cross a river in their hum-vee and finally the barely clad girls put some clothes on. What a surprise - they all end up wearing schoolgirl outfits. The girls instruct the boys not to look, and they don't, but we sure do. The perspective keeps cutting to them, showing their different states of dress and undress. Interestingly, it comes close to showing Rei and Saya's nipples multiple times, but cuts away. I guess we're only going to see Shizuka's? Is that because she's older, despite not looking or even acting older at all?

The gang drive their armoured military vehicle through some streets and Rei remarks that they haven't seen any zombies in a good while. They round a corner however and come face to face with them, apparently all bottlenecked in the street the gang wish to access.

Rei, for some reason was riding on top of the hum-vee, and gets thrown into their undead's path, so Takashi comes down to save her, firing at them, but there are too many.

All hope seems to be lost more than once. They do what they can but are too heavily outnumbered.

In perhaps the most creative fan service in the series yet, Saeko, the dark-blue-haired and bossy one, joins the fray with her samurai sword, the scene slowing down dramatically so that we can see how the bullets from Takashi's gun narrowly miss hitting her as they pass through her thighs... of course, giving us a chance to focus on her black underwear in the process. We also see bullets pass between one of the girl's bulging breasts.

I'm liking how easy to watch this show is. Episodes are over before you know it, unlike with "Tokyo Ghoul", for example.
