Of course, there were a few foretelling signs with the way some characters were acting and visual cues scattered throughout the episode, but I was still fooled nonetheless. I was expecting something along the lines of 2015's Re-Kan, where the supernatural elements were just treated as a mere comedic gag, rather than anything integral to the narrative.Īnd while the deceptive(troll) opening theme and most of the show's 1st episode run-time had me duped into believing my assumption, that premature assessment was quickly shattered with the show's ominous reveal towards the latter end of the episode.
While I entered with some second-hand knowledge of the involvement of zombies in the show's plot-due to the inescapable whispers coming down the grapevine-I assumed that the subject matter would have merely been treated as a backdrop for cute girls to get involved in silly, tension-less slapstick with the overbearingly cutesy aesthetic that it was sporting on its cover photo being used as my basis for assessment. With a 1st episode that threw all convention out the window, it didn't take long for it to garner buzz within the anime community. Gakkougurashi! (School-Live!) was a surprise for many viewers of the 2015 summer season lineup.
