Status Updates From Land of the Rising Dead: A ...

Can see why there were complaints about the third chapter of this book. Set up is basically: 1) swing overhead or side to side at head, 2) These items are hard / easy to obtain in Japan, 3) Train; we can't tell you much of how, look it up on your own. Repeat that ad nauseum. The first two chapters I liked because they introduced you to Zombie fiction and history. I am a bit curious about shovel use in military though

When they mentioned the Self-Aware type zombies, and had a little blurb in the manga about a zombie falling for a human, I thought they'd mention Sanakarea or whatever.

Anyways, yeah, lots of new zombie types to learn about and movies to watch if you're a zombie fan in here. Not too familiar with the Deathless and the Vengeful Soul-type. Zombie rain does make me remember an Itchy and Scratchy zombie cartoon though

Never thought I'd see Alistair Crowley get a mention in this (learned about him and Jack Parsons in The Secret History of Twin Peaks a few months back). Touches on some history of zombies from both media and cultural perspectives starting with the US occupation of Haiti where the imagery of Voodoo was witnessed and perhaps fabricated somewhat by Journalists.

I managed to read lots before falling asleep yesterday~ Now I can finish the rest today. This guide is pretty awesome, though it could do with out the constant repetitions.

Didn't have any time to read this one after I got to page 144 (so about 6/7 hours ago), but I do hope to read a few pages when I head to bed.

Really 70+ pages on weapons (and just a small bit on defences) is too silly. I was bored so fast. :|

This one reads a bit funny, as it is published the same way a manga is. While I am used to reading manga the Japanese way, I am not that used to reading a novel like this. Yes, I read LN's in English, but those are published according to how we in the West read books. :) Still it is a wonderful book, and I love the addition of illustrations, and chapters of manga at the end of each chapter.

Can't wait to start this one this evening before I go to sleep. It looks absolutely awesome! Zombies! Manga! Guide! \o/
