Within hours, the school is overrun. Takashi Komuro and his childhood friend Rei Miyamoto fight their way out alongside a small group of survivors: the kendo prodigy Saeko Busujima, whose calm in combat masks something more complicated; Saya Takagi, whose genius is matched only by her personality; Hirano Kohta, an otaku with an encyclopedic knowledge of firearms that becomes immediately relevant; and the school nurse Shizuka Marikawa, who is not particularly useful in a fight but drives well enough. Together they push through the city trying to find their families and some explanation for what is happening — a search that produces answers nobody is prepared for. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHigh School of the Dead is a 12-episode zombie survival series produced by Madhouse — the studio behind Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Claymore, Paprika, and Texhnolyze — directed by Tetsuro Araki — who also directed Death Note and Attack on Titan — and based on Daisuke Sato's manga illustrated by Shouji Sato, serialized in Monthly Dragon Age under Fujimi Shobo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Drifters of the Dead OVA — a 25-minute beach episode also directed by Araki — was released in Japan in January 2011 and is included in this set.
