    Is This a Zombie Volume 1
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2013*

Is This A Zombie was a recommended purchase for me, so I immediately bought the first three volumes on a whim. I have not seen the anime, nor have I read the light novels. This is one of  the strangest manga I have ever read.The story revolves around a school kid named Ayumu who is murdered, and brought back to life by a Necromancer named Eu. Eu doesn't speak, instead she writes her thoughts and responses on paper for Ayumu; this is because Eu's words become reality and anything she says may change the fate of the person she is speaking too.Ayumu, while walking home from school, has a girl named Haruna fall on top of him out of the sky. Haruna is a 'Magikewl Girl' (even Ayumu thinks the name is stupid) from another world, here to destroy monsters known as 'Megalo'. As it turns out, Ayumu somehow managed to sap the magical energy from Haruna and she can no longer fight Megalo or return to her own world.There's also another girl who appears named Seraphim, and is looking to take Eu back to her world to resurrect her tribe leader. When Eu refuses to go with her, she decides to stay with Eu, Ayumu, and Haruna.The story has a lot of angles to follow, but never really goes anywhere past Ayumu looking for the person who killed him. The rest is typical harem scenes and situations. Many of the jokes that have been translated do not make sense in English, and should have notes added to describe why the sentence is a joke. Overall, it turns some of the conversations into complete incoherent ramblings. Some of the jokes refer to other anime, especially the Gundam series.Is This A Zombie carries a parental advisory warning, but never shows any nudity and the language barely falls above a Teen or PG-13 rating. I'm not sure if the warning is there because of all the upskirt and panty shots; but every time there is someone naked, they are either covered or not detailed. Things that could have easily been changed to be deserving of the rating, or simply edited to not need it at all.The first six pages of the manga are all full-color and glossy. The book came shrink wrapped (probably because of the Parental Advisory. The cover is a little light and bends easily, so be careful when reading. The pages are also slightly underweight and should be handled with caution (for anyone who likes a pristine collection). The book is inked well, and there wasn't any real examples of unused space between panels. It is fairly average quality manga.Overall it will be interesting to see where the series goes from here, I am looking forward to reading Volume 2. If you are looking for something that just tries to be fun, look no further; if you are looking for something serious you will probably want to look elsewhere. I knocked a couple stars off from 5. One was for the overall quality of the manga is not worthy of anything more than average rating; the other was for the difficulty in following the manga at times. There are instances where a major part of the story is going on, and then it seemingly drops that part of the story and moves on without any closure or warning.

    I love this series!
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2013*

I actually picked up this manga after watching both Seasons 1 & 2 of the anime adaption. After reading this volume it's nice to know that the anime followed the original manga concept pretty faithful. So far there are only minor changes which actually happen to work for the switch between formats. Vol. 1 really introduces the main players of the story and begins to set up a daily life which revolves around Ayumu, a recently converted zombie thanks to the help of a silent Necromancer, and is later joined by a mad genius Magical Girl and several Vampire Ninjas. A great read for anyone into slice of life comedies with a great mix of characters, great comedy elements, notable homages to other anime series (Full Metal Panic!), action with a sprinkling of sci-fi and fantasy elements. I plan to purchase volumes 2 & 3 once they are released stateside!

    It is a good manga and really fun to read
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2014*

This is my opinion only, judge me if you want.It is a good manga and really fun to read.  The artwork is very well draw.  The characters are so moe in this manga which will make you want to keep on reading.  The story is great and easy to follow.  If you like a harem/comedy/fantasy base manga and are looking for a good manga to read, then this is the one for you!!!
