The Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead anime, which finally ends this Christmas after a delay-filled production, has received a new trailer and visual to promote the upcoming release of the final three episodes (10 to 12). The latter takes on a festive theme, while the former is a mix of old footage and previews of the upcoming climatic conflict.
Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead first premiered on July 9, with its ninth episode premiering on September 24. Episodes 4, 7, and 8 experienced streaming delays, while Episode 5 had a complete delay with a special recap taking its original slot. Episode 6 was delayed as a result of the 2023 World Athletics Championships.
Zom 100 is based on the Shogakukan-published manga written by Haro Aso and drawn by Koutaro Takata, which Viz Media describes as:
In a trash-filled apartment, 24-year-old Akira Tendo watches a zombie movie with lifeless, envious eyes. After spending three hard years at an exploitative corporation in Japan, his spirit is broken. He can’t even muster the courage to confess his feelings to his beautiful co-worker Ohtori. Then one morning, he stumbles upon his landlord eating lunch—which happens to be another tenant! The whole city’s swarming with zombies, and even though he’s running for his life, Akira has never felt more alive!
The manga series began serialization in Monthly Sunday GX in 2018 and has 15 tankoubon volumes as of September 2023. The anime is streamed by Netflix, Hulu, Crunchyroll, Muse Asia, and Bilibili outside Japan.
