Highschool of the Dead 8honestly... i'm getting sick and tired of seeing jiggling objects whenever they got the chance to show it .___. i mean, come on... this is just overboard fanservice and i dun think it pleases many of the viewers IMO. even the manga wasn't THAT overboard...
So the group have managed to cross the river and had made it to the other side. Having previously taken the bath, Shizuka-sensei had prepared some clothings for them to gear them up for combat. Takashi was handed a shotgun by Kouta and had taught him slightly on how to operate the gun and if he needed, it could always be a secondary bat for him but having a firearm is still better than nothing. Kouta meanwhile holds on to his own assault rifle, Saeko still has her own wooden sword and Rei is now equipped with a long rifle with a bayonet attached to aid her style. Kouta and Takashi took the initiative to check their surroundings and signalled Shizuka-sensei to start the vehicle and ferry them across the streets. Since Takagi's house was the nearest among them, the group decides to head there first and Takagi herself knew that chances of her family members surviving was very slim. Nonetheless, the group still headed in the direction of her house and midway, Rei asks Takashi if he had noticed something different. The group had not encountered "them" ever since dawn and the other side of the river was as quiet as it seems to be. Just when they thought how great the situation was, they started to encounter "them" as they get closer and closer to Takagi's house and suspect that something must have happened that led "them" to be grouped together. In an attempt to keep of roads filled with "then", Shizuka-sensei accidentally swerved the vehicle into a wire barricade and after slamming on the brakes, both Rei and Takashi stumbled on the vehicle and Rei was thrown off. Looking at the approaching "them" and an immobile Rei, Takashi jumped down the vehicle without hesitation and fired his shotgun. Kouta then taught him how to aim properly with the intense recoil and Takashi did managed to fend most them off but the number was just too large. Even with Kouta assisting Takashi and Saeko with her wooden sword, the numbers just does not seem to have decreased at all. Takashi soon ran out of bullets and when he almost said that they could at least die together, he took notice of Rei's rifle and attempts to use it, while sling-ed to Rei's clothes, but none of the shots seemed to hit. Takagi also tried to help after picking up Takashi's shotgun but the situation seems to be getting worse. Saeko and Takashi then slashes through the crowd of "them" and tries to lure them away using sound but not all had followed them. Kouta then took the chance to bring Alice and her dog over to the other side of the barricade first but she refuses to be left alone and cries to say that she wants to remain together with the rest of them. Just then, a group of people arrived at the scene, wearing firefighter suits and blasted "them" off using their high pressured water rifles and also aiding the group to get over the barricade. When they were safely across, one of their saviours removed their mask and Takagi immediately realised that it was her mother and hugs her happily with the fact that she was still alive. Meanwhile, with Takashi and Saeko being separated from the group while trying to lure "them" away, the duo are now proceeding to Takagi's house.
ASIDE from the FS scenes, the actions were much well thought off with gunfire actions and rather remarkable swordsmanship. and with the episode down, Takagi has reunited with her mother and Takashi could have started to feel the ecstasy of killing "them" like as if he was killing humans when he actually felt high when he was wiping "them" out with his firearm. ain't a good sign but in such chaotic world they are in, it seems to be inevitable with the fact that they are all trying to survive.
and please ... stop overloading FS .___.
