I am the sexiest poster in the world!
My guess is that the dog will sacrifice itself nobly for the group. It'll raise an alarm and charge at some zombies and die, but the girls would have been completely blindsided if he hadn't, something like that.

Don't doodle on it!


The OP has segments for the classmates, Miki's friend, the dog, and Megu-nee, all in rapid succession. The segments for the classmates and the friend were replaced once their fates were revealed, and presumably the same thing will happen for Megu-nee next episode... leaving only the dog.

That dog is gonna die.

Also, if anyone skipped the end credits and the episode preview this week, you should go back and watch them.

This show is intriguing, and at least is interesting enough to watch because you can tell the people making the show are having a ton of fun with it.

Well, all caught up with the anime now. I'd spoiled myself on Megu-nee already but the way they did the confirmation was still pretty sad. I wonder after the reveal if she's going to stop appearing to the viewer as well? That ED and preview seemed to suggest they might.

Also I hope Miki makes up with Taromarou eventually. It was funny in the first episode but with context it's just sad.

Also also I quite like that bear with the moustache. Megu-nee had good taste. and I'm sure the zombies thought so too

Megu still shows up in the manga for a while, iirc.

Lots of small changes to the OP this episode. A couple expected, but some I wasn't expecting.



This is my favorite one though. I doubled back because I could tell something was different, and when I went back and paused I just :stonklol:

Evening, patrolmaaan.
Before I checked what number episode this was, I totally thought this was going to be the last episode when the credits started.
I really liked all the little changes to the OP this week, I've probably paid more attention to this show's OP after the first episode than any other series.

*Manga Spoilers* I was hoping they would hint at someone receiving the letter at the end, or even a post credits sequence. Maybe next episode.

The lingering shot on Megumi's grave made me wince. :smith:

Also, I like how it's gradually going from morning to evening in the opening. It's not often you see a show that puts so much attention into their opening.

I went in to the show blind while trying to find things to tide me over till the next My Love Story episode.

Holy poo poo...

The first reveal was a complete surprise. I figured something was up because of the way the short haired girl was acting but right at the end... all that blood.
Megu-nee I figured out pretty quick.

Annnnyway, the ending title sequence for episode 7 kind of hosed me with me because it heavily implied they were all dead (laying in odd positions, the white blossoms falling in through a ruined roof, then the cut as the bodies are gone but blood stained mementos of the girls remain) and the whole thing with the balloons flying away seemed like a really fitting end. If the series just stopped right here, I'd be pissed because I want to see more, but it would also be relatively kick rear end.

Anyone know what it says on the ruined chalk board at the end of the ending credits?

It's totally going to be the leader girl. Based on her conversation with Miki when she first joins and suggests that playing along with Yuki's delusions isn't the best idea, I could totally see her snapping if/when Yuki stops living in her dream world.

It feels like Yuki is semi-aware of the situation now. The biggest evidence of that is that she stopped "talking" to Megu-nee after she returned to the clubroom. Also, the forced smile before she opened the door.

When the girls disappear at the end of that ED, there's a bloody knife on the chair she's sleeping on.

For those of you who think the OP is getting too depressing, here's a happier version.

This is shaping up to be a really great show. It's a shame they've cut out some minor bits, like Yuuri's balloon message, though.

In case anyone's interested, in the manga, she wrote: E139.645 N35.419

But why would she send a finder to a non-existent location? :ohdear: (Latitude can't be higher than 90, the north pole). But regardless, I was actually hoping that they wouldn't describe where they are, because other humans tend to be more dangerous than zombies.
