But... what about the girl's brother? And the romance with mc. Everything was so perfect two episodes ago T_T.

Anyways, why would the evil guys only act now that the sister didn't die? Or is it later in time, and the whole
meeting singer curing brother didn't happen because mc was locked up?

Ofcourse I don't see any reason they didn't act before the superpower teens got all strong and stuff, but I'm
not expecting a (good) explanation for that anyway.

Was quite convinced the 7th was chest girl because she didn't seem to have a real other 'role' + has knowledge and contacts/position to most easily set stuff up +had door key + could lie easiest about stuff because rest where not experts and then later because of her actions (when the key turned out not to matter).

But her still not being revealed rafter they made it more and more obvious it was her makes it seem like it could be someone else?

There's the girl who did the whole crazy freak out, in which she could have completed the ritual. But she already seems to have the clear role of being annoying and having bunny ears+big tits, an apperentally important char inclusion in many anime.

Edit: Could be they accidentally activated it while trying to deactivate it and there's another explanation for there being 7 braves.

Shovel Girl noooooooooooo! I didn't expect that much progression in just one episode. Zombies breaking through and shit, Yuki seems to realise/remember everything, situation is really dire.
Still, I expect them to heal shovel girl and escape from the school.

I expect them to save shovel-chan. Someone mentioned they might even save Taroumaru and while that's certainly possible, if they really want to go grimdark they could also do:
<girl hears him locked up in that room in the basement>
<emotional scene as she realizes she can only save one of them: Shovel-chan or Taroumaru>
<with tears in her eyes she runs back, leaving Taroumaru in that room>
Either way it's between those two imo. But I just don't see how she's even supposed to pull that off without a huge asspull. As you said, zombies all over the place now.

Not a bad thing about the episode itself, but it makes me worry about the next one and if they can pull it off decently.

I agree with you completly. According to a friend, shovel girl doesn't even get hurt in the manga. I hope they know what they are doing since they are obviously going with huge anime original parts in this adaption. I hope they can pull of what they set up in this episode.

Zombies aren't that much of a problem though. The biggest plothole or rather question until now has been why only one of the girls picked up a shovel. The shovel was hugely effective and the zombies are dumb as fuck. Clearing all the floors from zombies wouldn't be an asspull to me when they finally start to arm everyone.

well yeah... but they're like 14 year old girls or something like that. So I can understand that a bit.
If anything, the fact that Yuki hasn't picked up a shovel is pretty obvious.
Mii-kun only got there recently and basicly was told to just try and observe how they're going about daily life for now. And she did pick up the shovel just now
So the only one that could have really done that would have been the club-prez I think?

Seems like she's really concerned about yuki and doesn't want to risk anything.

I don't even read the manga, but I know for a fact that Kurumi does get bitten in it.

I highly doubt there will be a choice to save Taroumaru, as he's already turned.

Slow zombies aren't supposed to be a threat in the traditional sense. More than anything, their purpose is to serve as a reminder that the survivors (and by extension, humanity) are screwed even if they do somehow find a cure. It shifts the story from being about battling the zombies to being about internal group drama.

That zombie hordes are dangerous is one of the defining hallmarks of the genre. Sure, an organized defense will allow you to slaughter them, but the real question lies in how long you can actually keep it up. The girls can probably handle a small group no problem, but killing literal hundreds is pushing it. Ten bucks says they get lured away by something.
