Character designs for the revolutionary upcoming anime where moe girls fight zombies, Gakkou Gurashi, seems to have suffered from Manga Time Kirara’s influences as there’s a lot of Kiniro Mosaic in the style.

Compared to their original manga designs, the girls have been very lolified. Not that this was ever a series to take seriously, but morphing characters out of their original form into a more fetishized one is not a step in the right direction. The designs also seem to take cues from Kiniro Mosaic, as the twintailed girl is almost like Aya decided to dye her hair purple and go fight zombies.

On a general level, the designs aren’t particularly captivating or rewarding. They’re overly conventional giant-eyed, colored hair, silly uniform. It’s nice that there’s at least three varieties of outfit based on these character designs, giving the designs some level of variety.

With no unique visual charms, Gakkou Gurashi has to hope its characters’ personalities and the story they are set within are sufficient and capable of compelling an audience and making this series something more than a forgettable bump in the seasonal road.

Gakkou Gurashi airs July as the work of Lerche, the studio behind ongoing Assassination Classroom.

MY COMMENT

UGUUU!!!! And it doesn't seem to be those harem anime!! SO CUTE! >w<

Well, moe girls are already mainstream nowadays, but I have no problem with them being like Kiniro Mosaic or anything. I haven't read the manga yet tho, so maybe there are some disappointed readers about this. 

I also don't reckon this one to have epic story or anything, just some cute girls doing cute things to replenish your cuteness need!! Yeah, we need those kind of anime once in a while!

>w< b

So I have nothing against this since it only gives me benefits. Tho I'm pretty sure there'll be some fan services which is I don't really like since it reduce the actual story duration.

And about that thing being forgotten after the season, this one has a big chance for that. It happens all the time, seasonal waifu and stuff. Not like i care tho, if it's funny it's re-watchable.

One thing I don't want is that the anime turns out to be full of gore where these girls are being torn apart...
