Highschool of the Dead 7

after a hectic night and a chance to get some rest, a nearby barking dog started to group all the zombies near the house Takashi and the others are in, where things are just getting started. Along the streets filled with zombies, an individual with a shotgun was fending off the zombies in front of him but he himself wasn't in the right state of mind after experiencing such a chaotic world. The piercing sound from the shotgun was enough to cause himself to be surrounded by the zombies and while attempting to reload, he was swarmed upon and was taken out. Takashi was watching the scene and could've wanted to help the survivors but Saeko wouldn't want Takashi to do it. Takashi thought that Saeko would be different and would agree with his actions, Saeko tells him that she was facing the cold hard truth that they wouldn't be able to save everyone and even turned the lights off to prevent anyone from coming up to the doorstep. Takashi was handed the binoculars to "familiarise" himself with the current world they are in and all he could do was to watch victims after victims fall prey to the zombies in the street. It was then a father and his daughter caught Takashi's eyes and continued to watch them. The father had brought the daughter to a nearby household and called out to the people inside to at let them in. They were however rejected of entry but to save his daughter, he once again plea with the household and even threatened to break down their door to allow his daughter to be saved. Hearing that, the members of the household agreed to let them in but stabbed the father when the door opened and they truly wouldn't want more people to seek shelter in their house. His daughter, Alice (who would be introduced soon), witnessed her father's death and cried, causing the zombies to target her instead as they are attracted to her cries. Seeing how the situation has become and a zombie closing in on her, Hirano snipes down the zombies targetting her and tells Takashi to go and save her. Takashi does not need to be asked to as he himself had already wanted to go and save the child, passing by Saeko, he tells her that he must go and save the child which Saeko let him go, telling him that she'll protect this place and he can leave the house to her. Leaving on the motorbike, Takashi reaches the girl quickly with Hirano covering him with his sniper rifle. Takashi takes down the approaching zombies and saves the girl but had to fire his hand pistol when he was nearly ambushed, causing the zombies to group around the house but with the gates being locked, Takashi and Alice are currently saved. Takashi sees her father lying on the floor and covers the face with a piece of cloth and hands a flower to Alice, telling her that her father had gave up his life protecting her and as she place the flower onto her deceased father, Alice continue to cry in Takashi's arms. Judging by the huge number of zombies grouping together at Takashi's location, the group decides that it would be best for them to go and pick Takashi up and loads the various items that they need into the armoured vehicle that belongs to Shizuka-sensei's friend. It would be difficult for them to pass by the entire hoard of zombies to reach Takashi but Takashi himself have already taken a step forth through walking by the walls, carefully taking each steps as the zombies are still on the streets. With that easing the situation a little, the others arrive and with Saeko cutting through the incoming zombies and Hirano blasting away the rest, Takashi and Alice are able to reach the armoured vehicle safely and crossing the bridge becomes their next priority.

quite number of "not-so-needed" fanservice scenes but at least this episode had more of a plot rather than the previous one. Alice would play a role of one of the main chars so all the char in the group have mainly all grouped up. Hirano had a pretty much personality change in this episode as well, from a nosebleeding dude to a rather cool sniping dude. seeing how the series is proceeding with the manga, im hoping that they wont make the same boring episode as the one with tons of recap just for the sake of keeping the 1 chapter 1 episode kind of thing.

K-ON! is going to end in their next issue and the girls have all made it to their Universities, which the final chapter of the rather famous series would end with the girls graduating and with the entire series focusing on their high school lives. so we wouldn't be able to see them perfoming in Budokan / outside the school as a professional band. unless they do a time leap which is pretty unlikely.
