Still the ending of Highschool of the Dead had sequal written all over it. I mean iv read the manga and I know what happens at the part where the anime ended, but the anime ended in a way that it could easily start season 2 on the shopping mall arc!

I'm pretty sure he'll be back somewhere along the line, hopefully as a serious threat. It's not worth setting his character up from the beginning just to have Rei snub him and that be the end of it. He has to make them really regret saving him before he can be allowed to die...

Well usually there's always one massively dickish character in stories like these that makes life a hassle for the good guys and eventually gets a karmic death. Maybe this story was trying to subvert that and just have Shidou's role to this story meet an anti-climactic end very early on.

Either that or he turns out to be the Big Bad...

They probably want to see how many people want a season 2 for Highschool of the Dead. Or they are waiting for more chapters to be released before they go with season 2, because with how they were strolling along with the chapters. Then there will not be enough content to animate. Also the EMP was completely a silly idea... How could zombies use technology exactly?

It wasn't the zombies, they didn't want the humans to strike against America using any form of military equiptment like nukes or whatever, even though by doing that, they doomed a lot of people to death by undead.

I think it was, they just detinated it at high altitude meaning only the EMP blast generally associated with Nuculear Explosions actually hit anyone on the ground.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-al...lear_explosion (HANE) = EMP on a wide area

Its the sad truth... There is two options available for us now.... 1 to read the manga from where we left off. Or 2 to wait 6-however many months if they ever decided to make a season 2.

Well only way he's back as a serious threat is if he increases his cult. Right now he's hurt, he has no vehicle, and none of his group can fight. Shido will be damn lucky if he even survives to be seen again. One can also question how many of his followers are even still alive or able to move since he'd quickly abandon anyone not useful. It'll have to be a long while into the future before we see him again since right now he's not in a position to be a major character.

Their is a 30 minute OVA coming out in late April that is going to be bundled with volume 7 on the manga, it's going to be a Blu-Ray only. So expect someone to rip and sub it. Was going to buy it but I don't have a player yet even though I could understand it raw. I just hope it's not it's all the extra bonus comedy chapters from the manga.

I hope we see Rika rocking her Colt M-4 and Sig 226 and kicking some zombie ass like in the manga, that was the one part I was so pissed that didn't make it in the regular season.

Of course this is all assuming the detonation and the resulting EMP was intentional, for the lack of a proper explanation this was the most logical one I could think of.


BTW Hirano's "Mama!" cracked me up.
