What Is Akira’s Bucket List of the Dead?
As the title suggests, Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead is an action-packed anime with a lot of zombies! A zombie-infested world may seem dangerous to some, but Akira Tendou's journey of a lifetime has only just begun!
And what better way to begin an adventure than by making a list of 100 things to do?
In Akira's case, though, his bucket list includes 100 things to achieve before he turns into a zombie!
The problem is that Akira can only think of a few things to do, and he can't just do them all by himself!
With the help of Kencho, Shizuka, Bea, Takemina, and Izuna, it appears like Akira's bucket list will be completed!

Will Akira Finish His Bucket List of the Dead in Zom 100?
As of writing, Akira has yet to complete his ultimate bucket list of the dead. In fact, there's even more for Akira and the group to experience! There are still six items they need to add to the list of 100 things to do!
But the gang has come a long way! They've done everything from digging for dinosaur fossils to managing a bar! Name it!
Honestly, we couldn't believe Akira and the others could pull it off, especially since Japan is under a state of emergency due to the rampant zombie epidemic!
The most difficult item for Akira and the others to tick off their bucket list is probably number 43: "Restore Nippon to its natural beauty", which was added by Beatrix.
If the gang can find a cure and/or Tsuru is able to mass produce a vaccine, Nippon (Japan) will be restored to its former grandeur.
The road ahead, however, is challenging, and developing a vaccine will take a long time!
One thing is certain: Akira and the others will not give up their fight to complete the bucket list.
They all swore to see it through to the end, despite the fact that they would face major threats along the way!
