It's probably far too early to write the review on these series, but from 1st and to the 3rd episode it's quite enjoyable anime.

The story is good - if only for the fact that we don't have tons of zombie animes around. The plot begins fast, without (almost traditional) long and borings start, and the story is full of action. I'm not too fond of the characters as of now, they seem too usual, they have no spark of individuality yet, but there's possibility that we know them better later. As of now plot compensates for dull charters enough so I could say that the story is good, if not excellent.

Dialogue is decent. Nothing to quote but this anime isn't really about talking.

Animation has great quality. The character design is quite nice and backgrounds are well done.
The only thing I dislike is quantity of boobs and panties on screen per minute. Don't get me wrong, I usually don't mind such things but I like such things for them being sexy. And I find it a bit disturbing when all attention falls on girl's panties while the said girl is eaten alive at that very moment. Too kinky for me, sorry XD

Entertainment - excellent! If you're into zombie thing you can't miss this anime!
