The group from Fujimi High would rather not get involved in a power struggle and tries to stay under the radar until they are ready to set off again. Though the shopping center seems a well-stocked place to hide from the undead lurking outside, the policewoman in charge is having a hard time maintaining peace within. Takashi and his fellow students join up with a band of survivors who have barricaded themselves inside a local mall. But with neighbor turning on neighbor, nation turning against nation, is anywhere really safe anymore? However, trapped in the airport with thousands of flesh-hungry undead, Rika and her partner have no choice but to use every weapon in their arsenal if they want to make it to safety. October 2011 | ISBN: 978-5-9 | $13.99 ($15.50) | 160 pages | 5”x 7.5″ | MatureĪs fear becomes the norm and people begin to process what has happened, questions of authority and outcries against violence toward “them” - the zombie-like victims of the “Murder Syndrome” - cause dissent among those not affected. The group has been lucky so far, but will their determination and makeshift arsenal be enough to make it to safety alive? The car struggles to shake the relentless zombies while Takashi and Rei cling perilously to the roof. The Alice’s presence eases the tension, but as Marikawa-sensei drives farther into the neighborhood, “they” seem to be out in greater numbers. The high school escapees are joined by elementary-schooler Alice and a brave little dog as they make their way to the next safe house, not a soul (or corpse) in sight. Among those untouched by the disease, anarchy is the only law, and when anything goes, Takashi and Rei may have to become monsters themselves if they want to stay alive. Though the immediate threat of attack has subsided, their survival instinct is still on high alert. Separated from the rest of the survivors from their high school, Takashi and Rei make their way through town, taking in the full scope of the sudden outbreak that’s turned most of the residents into undead terrors.
