Highschool of the Dead 10

The group has now safely arrived at the Takagi household and for them, it was the most relaxed atmosphere they have been in ever since hell broke lose. Takashi later sees two man carrying a heavy crate and offered to help, but was rejected as they felt that it was the job of the adults and the kids should just stay aside and that, was the beginning of the troubles they are going to face. Alice comes in and greets Takashi whom is happy to see her back to her cheerful self again and have most probably gotten over her father's death. Shoutings were then heard from Takagi in her room where she later storms out and reprimands Takashi for not calling her first name when he calls her. Takashi then meets Takagi's mother and hears from her about the current situation on how the commander is sending troops to the power plant to keep it working but the workers wouldn't be working there all the time since their family aren't there and that's where her role comes in. The household would only accept those whom they know would be able to survive to seek shelter here. Meanwhile, Kouta is checking out his own arsenal of guns when an adult comes buy and asks him if its real and before the situation worsens, Takagi intervenes and cuts into the questioning and hopes that Kouta realises that here, they are treated as kids and wouldn't have much authority and freedom. Takashi was then asked to talk to Takagi and when the group had gathered for a meeting, everyone knows that there are only two options laid in front of them, whether to be absorbed into the large group of the Takagi household, or to separate and go their own way. Takashi then started to talk about how great Takagi's parents were and that hit the nail and Takagi was agitated by it, since her parents did thought of her in the first place but had not dispatched anyone to search for them as they had presumed that she wouldn't be able to survive and that made her hate her parents. Takashi then lifts her up and bellowed at how lucky she actually was, that she was able to know that her parents were safe but the rest were still in doubt. Takagi returns to her senses after Takashi's words made it clear and her father and his other troops return to the household from the outside world. His father showed the rest on how his best friend had sacrificed himself to save others and became the one cutting him down to show everyone that no matter it is someone you love or your own family members, once they become "them", one should show no hesitation. Kouta soon breaks down as well and started talking about how swords are not able to cut down every single one of "them" if they are outnumbered but multiple stressing of the situation did not enlighten the rest and he got in a small argument with Takashi. Alice later made Takashi realised that in the household, they might have become too relaxed and must constantly remind themselves that the world they were previously enjoying has already perished. Later Kouta gets surrounded by several adults, to force him to hand over his guns which he refuses and later, Takagi's parents come by to see what the commotion was and her father questions Kouta on the reason why he doesn't want to hand the guns over to the adults. He replies that he doesn't want to give it up as he has finally found something he was good at and his qualities and before he add on to what exactly it was, Takashi butts in and tells them that he was the one protecting Takagi all along and the other members of the group arrives, even Takagi herself, who tells her parents that it was Kouta who was protecting her and it wasn't her parents who are doing that.

as usual, the story gets dragged out quite a bit with more mixed emotions showing between the members due to the screwed-up world outside. not really a anticipating cliffhanger here, just like a typical ending-off episode thing. i would have sticked to the manga IMO, the animation doesn't seem to be getting better...
