mdehnersI'd never heard of this Anime until I saw it reviewed on YouTube and luckily found it available on one of my Streaming services. This one is a doozy and I'll be doing more Spoilers than I normally do for this one. It's from 2015 and was only 12 episodes(which tends to make a lot of US fans skim over)…
At 1st you don't get a CLUE about this show. The opening theme and most of the 1st 2 episodes look like a typical Anime highschool comedy. 4 girls and their club's supervising teacher. It's a visual puzzle.
The main character, Yuki is one of those annoyingly cheerful characters always found in "Slice of Life" highschool shows. From her POV everything is bright, cheerful and clean. It isn't until you pay attention to the POV of the other 3 girls and you begin to understand something's WRONG. Yuki's halls and classrooms are full of kids. They're empty to the others. It isn't until the 2nd episode you realize that their teacher is only visible to Yuki. You find out in 3 that she's had a Psychotic Break and the other girls are going along with it to keep her calm because they're the only survivors of their school after a Zombie outbreak in their town(and probably further since no one's come to rescue them yet)…
Interesting how different folks "deal" with the same experiences AND no adults to tell her to "Look at the Flowers"...
Cheers,
Pat
