Welcome my dear surviving travelers of the internet and thank you very much for having made a temporary stop in my post, a guilty taste that I have is zombie series, and I call it guilty because most of these series are almost identical, despite that It didn't stop me from checking out “Black Summer” because I wanted to see rotten beings doing their thing. Without further ado, get ready to run for your lives because we are about to begin.
Bienvenidos mis queridos viajeros sobrevivientes del internet y muchas gracias por haber hecho una parada temporal en mi post, un gusto culposo que tengo son las series de zombies, y lo llamo culposo debido a que la mayoría de estas series resultan casi idénticas, no obstante eso no me detuvo para echarle un ojo a “Black Summer” debido a que tenía ganas de ver a seres putrefactos haciendo de las suyas. Sin más que agregar prepárense para correr por sus vidas pues estamos por comenzar.

The soundtrack is pleasant, on more than one occasion it is used well as an element that generates intrigue and makes various situations tense, this gives a certain touch of importance to the section.
La banda sonora es agradable, en más de una ocasión se utiliza de buena forma como un elemento que genere intriga y que haga tensas diversas situaciones, esto le da cierto toque de importancia al apartado.

The world-building makes good use of dark settings full of objects in order to contribute to the construction of moments of fear and tension, the latter making the setting fulfill the purpose of disconcerting the viewer on more than one occasion. I like the way he builds his society, or what remains of it, because it shows how people are not trustworthy, everyone looks out for their own interests, this is a success because it seeks to capture that broken bank. morality during the apocalypse where the enemy is not only the zombies but any other human being you encounter, making palpable the fact that everyone is bad until proven otherwise.
La construcción de mundo hace buen uso de escenarios oscuros y llenos de objetos a fin de contribuir con la construcción de momentos de miedo y tensión, esto último hace que la ambientación cumpla con ese propósito de desconcertar al espectador en más de una ocasión. Me gusta la forma en que construye a su sociedad, o lo que queda de ella, esto debido a que muestra como las personas no son confiables, cada quien vela por sus propios intereses, esto es un acierto debido a que busca plasmar esa banca rota moral durante el apocalipsis en donde el enemigo no son solo los zombies, sino cualquier otro ser humano con el que te encuentres, haciendo palpable el hecho de que todo el mundo es malo hasta que se demuestre lo contrarío.

The plot is quite entertaining and intriguing in equal parts, throughout it you can see how there are countless moments of tension in which adrenaline and confusion will be the order of the day. Narratively it is not very complex, we are talking about a series of zombies so there is not much to wait for something deeper, it is oriented towards style over substance being something that suits it well, something that seemed curious to me was the way it usually develop some situations; Sometimes it chooses to show a preview and then the explanation of what you saw, or, it can show the same event from different points of view, in both cases it is nice. The length is fine, throughout the chapters different situations and characters are focused on, so the different stories are interesting, in turn, it preserves the viewer's attention.
La trama es bastante entretenida e intrigante a partes iguales, a lo largo de esta se puede apreciar cómo existe un sinnúmero de momentos de tensión en los cuales la adrenalina y el desconcierto estarán a la orden del día. Narrativamente no es muy compleja, hablamos de una serie de zombies así que no hay mucho que esperar de cara a algo más profundo, se orienta al estilo sobre la sustancia siendo algo que le queda bien, algo que me pareció curioso fue la forma que suele desarrollar algunas situaciones; A veces opta por mostrar un adelanto y luego la explicación de lo que viste, o, puede mostrar el mismo evento desde diferentes puntos de vista, en ambos casos es agradable. La duración está bien, a lo largo de los capítulos se enfocan diferentes situaciones y personajes, por lo que resultan interesantes las diferentes historias, a su vez, hace que la atención del espectador se preserve.

The characters do not really stand out for their personality but for what they represent, many of them have some growth due to the difficult situation they must face, leaving them in the dilemma of doing or dying, in some cases this change is more easily denoted. Something that seems very curious to me is the constant change of protagonists, the above is because without warning one of the main characters can die, and these deaths are treated like the death of any secondary character because the rest cannot occur. the luxury of risking death by crying, the above gives a certain degree of intrigue to the matter thanks to the fact that one never knows with certainty in which situation a character could lose their life.
Los personajes no destacan realmente por su personalidad sino por lo que representan, muchos de estos tienen cierto crecimiento debido a la difícil situación que deben afrontar dejándolos en la disyuntiva de hacer o morir, en algunos casos se denota más fácilmente dicho cambio. Algo que me parece muy curioso es el cambio constante de protagonistas, lo anterior se debe a que sin aviso uno de los personajes principales puede morir, siendo que estas muertes son tratadas como la muerte de cualquier personaje secundario debido a que el resto no puede darse el lujo de arriesgarse a morir por estar llorando, lo anterior le da cierto grado de intriga al asunto gracias a que nunca se sabe con certeza en que situación podría perder la vida algún personaje.
Black Summer is generally a good zombie series, it has a good amount of conflicts and tense situations to keep the viewer on the edge of their seats, it also knows how to generate moments of intrigue in which you don't know if there will be imminent danger or not, this The latter gives it a nice touch because it has a good setting to accompany it. It is for all of the above that it deserves 3.5 stars out of 7, if you want to see a series of zombies and deaths galore, this is yours.
Black Summer es en líneas generales una buena serie de zombies, tiene buena cantidad conflictos y situaciones tensas como para mantener al espectador al filo el asiento, también sabe cómo generar momentos de intriga en los cuales no sabes si habrá o no un peligro inminente, esto último le da un toque agradable debido a que tiene una buena ambientación para acompañarlo. Es por todo lo anterior que merece 3.5 estrellas de 7, si quieres ver una serie de zombies y muertes a por montones esta es la tuya.

Hello, Internet people! Today I'll be brief with my review since it's about first impressions and I haven't finished watching the Anime. In general I find it quite funny and quite recommendable.
¡Hola, gente de Internet! Hoy seré breve con mi reseña dado a que se trata de primeras impresiones y además no he terminado de ver el Anime. En líneas generales me parece bastante divertido y bastante recomendable.
Kelvin is a boy who died by accident (literally) his death was not planned, it was a mistake of one of the Gods, so he asks Melfina (Goddess of reincarnation) to grant a new opportunity to the boy, reviving him in a fantasy world (it's as if he was inside a MMO video game) he doesn't remember anything of his past life because according to Melfina, the only thing Kelvin knows, besides his name and age, is that Melfina is his soul mate and that he has to level up a lot in order to summon her (Kelvin is a summoner but since they are rare in the world, he decides to pass himself off as an adventurer so he won't be so sought after or nations will fight for his services).
Kelvin es un chico que murió por accidente (literalmente) su muerte no estaba planeada, fue un error de uno de los Dioses, así que este le pide a Melfina (Diosa de la reencarnación) que le conceda una nueva oportunidad al muchacho, reviviéndolo en un mundo de fantasía (es como si estuviera dentro de un videojuego de MMO) éste no recuerda nada de su vida pasada porque según Melfina, él mismo renunció a sus recuerdos a cambio de habilidades especiales dentro de ese mundo, lo único que sabe Kelvin, además de su nombre y edad, es que Melfina es su alma gemela y que tiene que subir mucho de nivel para poder invocarla (Kelvin es invocador pero como son raros en el mundo, decide hacerse pasar por aventurero para no ser tan solicitado o que las naciones peleen por sus servicios)
As MMO players will know, it's normal and even necessary to make a group for some missions since the difficulty will always be higher than our skills, Kelvin doesn't want to do it because his companions could realize that he's a summoner, so he prefers to do the missions alone and this attracts the attention of others. This is how Kelvin makes his first summoning pact with a Slime he calls Cloto and this in turn helps him to make a pact with someone else (I will not give details to avoid spoilers) and little by little Kelvin is making his own group with which he has no problem revealing his secret.
Como sabrán los jugadores de MMO, es normal y hasta necesario hacer grupo para algunas misiones ya que la dificultad siempre será superior a nuestras habilidades, pues Kelvin no quiere hacerlo ya que sus compañeros podrían darse cuenta que es un invocador, por lo que prefiere hacer las misiones solo y esto llama la atención de los demás. Es así como Kelvin hace su primer pacto de invocación con un Slime al que llama Cloto y este a su vez le ayuda a pactar con alguien más (no daré detalles para evitar spoilers) y poco a poco Kelvin va haciendo su propio grupo con el cual no tiene problema de revelar su secreto
Now that I have given you the context of the Anime, I will tell you my first impressions. From the beginning I find it quite interesting and fun, it has very good dynamism and even when you know that in certain fights the protagonist will be victorious, it doesn't become boring because the execution for this outcome is very well worked.
Ahora que les di contexto del Anime, les diré mis primeras impresiones. De entrada me parece bastante interesante y divertido, tiene muy buen dinamismo y aún cuando sabes que en determinadas peleas el protagonista saldrá victorioso, no se torna aburrido ya que la ejecución para que este desenlace se de, está muy bien trabajado
The characters are empathetic and interesting and what I like the most is the fact that they are too different from each other, but still they are a pretty well matched group of friends. It still remains to be seen who the villain of this story will be as it hasn't been revealed at least until the chapter I finished watching, so I can't speak on this aspect.
Los personajes son empáticos e interesantes y lo que más me gusta es el hecho de que son demasiado diferentes entre si, pero aún así son un grupo de amigos bastante bien compaginado. Aun falta ver quien será el villano de esta historia ya que no se ha revelado al menos hasta el capítulo que terminé de ver, así que no puedo hablar de este aspecto.
Finally I must say that although I find it a bit strange the reason why Kelvin would be awakened in this world, and also I keep wondering if he is in a video game as such that other people play, or if this world is just like a video game even if it is not, the story is interesting and the scenes or events make you forget these questions.
Por último debo decir que aunque me parece un poco raro el motivo de porque Kelvin terminaría en este mundo y además continuamente me ando preguntando si está dentro de un videojuego como tal que otra gente juega o si simplemente este mundo es así como un videojuegos aunque no lo sea, la historia resulta interesante y las escenas o acontecimientos te hacen olvidar estas interrogantes
In short it's a very good Anime, fun and with each chapter leaves you wanting more, highly recommended. And well, people, this has been all for today's post, I hope you liked it. Thank you very much as always for supporting my work, I welcome new readers, I love you all very much, I send you a hug and I'll meet you in another post.
En resumen es un muy buen Anime, divertido y con cada capítulo te deja ganas de más, bastante recomendable. Y bueno, gente, esto ha sido todo por el post de hoy, espero que les haya gustado. Muchas gracias como siempre por apoyar mi trabajo, le doy la bienvenida a los nuevos lectores, les quiero mucho a todos, les envío un abrazo y ya nos encontraremos en otro post
›Black Summer could be a great show. It isn't though, and here's why@netflixr1240d
Initially I was not at all excited about Black Summer because honestly, the zombie genre had been done to death by the time it came around. The Walking Dead had done it about as well as it could be done and after 2,000 zombie movies I was pretty sick and tired of it.
I watched it anyway because I am a glutton that spends entirely too much time watching Netflix. I don't consider this a problem, yet.
Anyway, Black Summer has all the workings of a good show but it suffers from some very serious flaws that make it impossible for me to enjoy it and they exist in every single episode that I have seen.
First off I want to talk about something that was definitely intentional, could have been a strength for the show, but ended up being a massive weakness in my mind and the minds of many others that have watched this show.
The lack of linear structure
The show is not done in a linear fashion and honestly, I don't have a problem with that as long as the story comes together in a cohesive manner. The show isn't really a show as much as it is a bunch of snippets that are thrown out there in a seemingly random order. This works for the show in certain situations such as a big event that ends up being told from the perspective of multiple people in it such as when a raid on this country home was happening between rival gangs. That was interesting and more information was revealed with each piece of the puzzle.
Unfortunately that instance is rare where the "pieces" actually end up coming together. For the most part the new "scene" has a vague name like "Sam" or "breakaway" or something that doesn't seem to have much to do with zombies or the story at all. Because it jumps around like this I can honestly say that I only know the name of a handful of the characters despite the fact that I have watched 8 episodes. This jumping doesn't give us very much time to actually give a shit about many of the characters and in that regard I think it is a mistake.
These people are all core members of the cast and they get split up at the beginning of season 2. They are referred to by their names so infrequently that I don't know what the hell their names are off the top of my head. I'm not saying that it is necessary to know their names but honestly, the way the story jumps around so abruptly makes it difficult to actually give a shit about any of the characters at all.
However, this flaw in storytelling is a minor setback compared to something that really gets under my skin.
The impracticality of glass windows meaning safety
I don't know how many times this has happened in the show, but it seems like it is a lot.
This place in the above pic is just referred to as the manor and for some reason, that isn't explained at all, it is where all the remaining humans wish to reside. They fight over it, kill one another in droves for possession of it even though the place is huge and could house all of them easily, but there is one major flaw of considering this a wonderful stronghold: The entire bottom floor is basically windows all around.
There have been a ton of times when people were trying to get inside because they were being pursued by the undead and they are banging on the window covered doors which are right next to a massive row of floor to ceiling windows and nobody seems to be capable of breaking them down. Not zombies or regular people are capable of i dunno, throwing a stone, swinging a piece of wood or just leaning on the windows a bit.
This would bother me less if it wasn't for the fact that in other situations there are zombies breaking through glass on this same show. It happens quite regularly in fact. An entire couple of episodes centers around the fact that there is this one rather fast zombie that is always in the yard of this manor and constantly banging on the wooden front door hard enough to nearly break the door down... yet he never goes for the windows.
There are other things like this in the show such as zombies being incapable of using doorknobs and what not that is never explained. I don't like impractical aspects to be in shows like this and in that regard Walking Dead and even stupid Resident Evil did it much better. If the place wasn't fortified, it wasn't safe and that is really the only thing that makes sense.
Why are the humans fighting each other?
I'd like to think that if we were at a point where zombies are always after us that we, the non zombies, might make some effort to band together and increase our numbers but the way it is in Black Summer is that the humans are only interested in stealing from and killing all other humans that remain.
I get it ok, there needs to be a non-zombie group of bad guys in order for the show to stay fresh. You may recall that Negan Smith's character was extremely popular in The Walking Dead and it was far more interesting than just always running away from mindless zombies. Black Summer is trying to do this as well but they are doing a very poor job of it. Once again I do not know the name of the leader of the baddies and their motivations for killing without so much as an inquiry again, isn't explained in any way. They just turn up, kill people, and also end up losing a bunch of their own numbers in the process. This seems like a really bad business idea because eventually you are going to run out of members.
There are many other problems with this show that perhaps I will go into greater detail about at a later time. Honestly, this show could be great but as it is now I watch it only to make fun of it and point out mistakes they made and trust me....there are a lot of them.
›Black summer season II (netflix series review)@roadstories1306d
Saludos chicos, feliz miércoles para todos ustedes. Hoy es un día para triturar un poco esta serie que les venia comentado hace un par de días atrás. Bueno no triturar, pero debo decir que el problema de las extensiones de temporadas es que en definitiva siempre terminamos apareciendo más la primera.
Greetings guys, happy Wednesday to all of you. Today is a day to shred a little this series that I was telling you a couple of days ago. Well not shred, but I must say that the problem with season extensions is that in the end we always end up appearing more in the first one.
Aquí vemos que el grupo de sobrevivientes protagonistas de las escenas más importantes se ha reducido. Si más no recuerdo pasaron 4 meses luego de que estos consiguieran el dichoso lugar donde se supone que estaban siendo evacuados las personas, sin embargo, si miraste ya la primera temporada te diste cuenta que no era del todo cierto.
Here we see that the group of survivors protagonists of the most important scenes has been reduced. If I remember correctly it was 4 months after they got to the place where the people were supposed to be evacuated, however, if you watched the first season you realized that it was not entirely true.
Pero vemos una importante reconciliación, que por cierto ha sido el inicio de la locura de una madre que esta dispuesta a hacer lo humano e inhumano posible por salvarla, valiéndose que ahora tiene una razón de vivir y de su existencia dentro del apocalipsis.
But we see an important reconciliation, which by the way has been the beginning of the madness of a mother who is willing to do everything human and inhuman possible to save her, taking advantage of the fact that now she has a reason to live and her existence within the apocalypse.
Debo acotar que si no te gusta la sangre o escenas gores, es mejor que no veas esta segunda temporada que es aún más sangrienta y sin pudor a que la extinción humana esta muy cerca.
I must point out that if you do not like blood or gore scenes, it is better not to watch this second season which is even more bloody and shameless that human extinction is very close.
Una de las cosas lógicas que podemos pensar cuando hay zombi es que las personas deberían o trabajan en grupos, sin embargo acá se puede ver que más fue la amenaza de supervivencia entre humanos que con los infectados, cosa que me pareció bastante gracioso, teniendo en cuenta que no hay razones de matar a otros cuando se mostró que había varias formas de obtener comida, agua entre otras cosas vitales.
One of the logical things we can think of when there are zombies is that people should or do work in groups, however here you can see that it was more the threat of survival among humans than with the infected, which I found quite funny, considering that there is no reason to kill others when it was shown that there were several ways to get food, water among other vital things.
A mi parecer se convirtió en una forma de drenar la rabia o los nervios, pero hubo otras razones por la cual era necesario matar dado que las personas de una forma psicológica estaban destruidas por no decir completamente desquiciados, y pues antes de darle alguna oportunidad de hacer algo tonto, mejor asegurarse que estuviera lo suficientemente muerto para no renacer infectado.
In my opinion it became a way to drain the rage or nerves, but there were other reasons why it was necessary to kill given that people in a psychological way were destroyed not to say completely unhinged, and well before giving him any chance to do something silly, better to make sure he was dead enough not to be reborn infected.
El primer capitulo de esta segunda temporada es para tragar amargo, dado que uno de los sobrevivientes que a mi parecer sufrió bastante, muere de una forma bastante estúpida. Llegó un punto en que cuando se convirtió en zombi desee que matara a los humanos que le mataron.
The first chapter of this second season is a bitter pill to swallow, since one of the survivors, who in my opinion suffered a lot, dies in a rather stupid way. It got to a point where when he became a zombie I wish he would kill the humans who killed him.
En esta temporada hubo mucho relleno, historias viejas de ciertos personajes y el hecho de cómo la vida les cambio de la noche a la mañana. Se podria decir que hay un respiro de zombi pero no cesa la amenaza de muerte por parte de otros elementos.
In this season there was a lot of filler, old stories of certain characters and the fact of how life changed them overnight. It could be said that there is a zombie respite but the threat of death from other elements does not cease.
Hay un nuevo punto de encuentro que llena a muchos de esperanzas, misma que usan para hacer lo que sea necesario incluso traicionar con tal de llegar y poder escapar de la zona.
There is a new meeting point that fills many with hope, which they use to do whatever it takes, including betrayal, in order to reach and escape from the area.
Aquí no hay amigos en definitiva, solo personas que se usan una a la otra y cuando ya no sirven o te vas o mueres, así de sencillo.
Here there are no friends in short, only people who use each other and when they are no longer useful either you leave or you die, it is as simple as that.
Se muestra la crueldad en lo que se convierte un ser humano una vez que llega al limite.
It shows the cruelty that a human being becomes once he reaches the limit.
Sin embargo, el final nos muestra varias escenas de lealtad hacia los humanos sobrevivientes y hacia una madre que lo ha dado todo incluso puesto su vida en riesgo.
However, the finale shows us several scenes of loyalty to the surviving humans and to a mother who has given everything, even putting her life at risk.
Por lo que se hay una tercera temporada dado que todavía no hay fin para este caos, y por supuesto hay personajes que quedaron inconclusos en cuanto a su supervivencia o muerte.
As far as I know there is a third season since there is still no end to this chaos, and of course there are characters that were left unfinished in terms of their survival or death.
Lo que si es que esta temporada dejo mucho que desear, me hizo recordar a los rellenos de animes justo cuando hay una historia un tanto interesante aunque llena de clichés de por medio.
What I do know is that this season left a lot to be desired, it reminded me of anime fillers just when there is a somewhat interesting story although full of clichés in between.
Por ahora no hay una fecha en que se estrene la tercera temporada, pero según varios medios indican que puede ser a finales de diciembre o en el 2023 al primer trimestre el 2023. Esperemos sea así porque necesito terminarla.
For now there is no release date for the third season, but according to several media it could be at the end of December or in the first quarter of 2023. Let's hope so because I need to finish it.
Menos suspenso, más historia pero bastante crueldad.
›Black Summer (netflix series review)@roadstories1308d
Buenas buenaaaaasss a todos, feliz inicio de semana que por cierto ¡que rapido! se nos ha ido el año. Ahora que estoy viendo la fecha en mi computador, me doy cuenta que falta muy pocos días para el 2023 y esperemos sea mucho mejor que este año. Por cierto, digo computador porque he tenido que vender mi celular por cuestiones personales, así que si algún hiver conocido mío me escribe, ya sabe la razón por la cual no le he respondido.
Good morning everyone, happy beginning of the week, and by the way, how fast the year has gone by. Now that I am looking at the date on my computer, I realize that 2023 is only a few days away and let's hope it will be much better than this year. By the way, I say computer because I have had to sell my cell phone for personal reasons, so if any hiver I know writes to me, he already knows the reason why I haven't answered him.
Bueno, pero no todo es malo, porque ayer en la rutina nocturna con mi pareja nos hemos degustado una serie que si bien no es tan buena en cuanto a la trama, es excelente si eres de esos que amas estar siempre en completo suspenso.
Well, but not everything is bad, because yesterday in the night routine with my partner we have tasted a series that although it is not so good in terms of plot, it is excellent if you are one of those who love to be always in complete suspense.
¡Por supuesto! tenia que ser con zombis, no lo han dicho directamente en la serie pero es algo muy obvio cuando miras que alguien muere y se levanta de la nada con mil energías, sangre en la boca, ojos entre morado y azules, y con un hambre y sed de carne humana, es claro que no puede ser otra cosa que una ola de no humanos.
Of course! it had to be with zombies, they have not said it directly in the series but it is something very obvious when you see that someone dies and rises from nowhere with a thousand energies, blood in the mouth, eyes between purple and blue, and with a hunger and thirst for human flesh, it is clear that it can not be anything other than a wave of non-humans.
Eso de "no humanos" por cierto lo aprendí creo que fue de la ultima serie de Resident Evil y la verdad es que aún no entiendo la razón de no llamarles por el nombre que siempre se le ha conocido, supongo que debe ser algún tipo de "inclusión" al lenguaje.
That of "non-humans" by the way I learned I think it was from the last series of Resident Evil and the truth is that I still do not understand the reason for not calling them by the name that has always been known, I guess it must be some kind of "inclusion" to the language.
Debo confesar que al inicio del primer capitulo tuve un deja vu dado que tiene una cierta similitud a Resident Evil, lo digo por el ambiente ese de que la tragedia empieza por una urbanización muy acogedora de esas que piensas que no pasa absolutamente nada. Me hizo recordar al prototipo de Raccoon City cuando experimentaban con los clones de Alice.
I must confess that at the beginning of the first chapter I had a deja vu since it has a certain similarity to Resident Evil, I say this because of the atmosphere that the tragedy begins in a very cozy urbanization of those that you think that absolutely nothing happens. It reminded me of the prototype of Raccoon City when they were experimenting with Alice's clones.
Pero bueno, lo que si es que no hay ni un minuto donde no te sientas en suspenso porque todo empieza rápido, como quien dice, primero la consecuencia y seguramente irán mostrando la causa de todo el apocalipsis que esta enfrentando la raza humana.
But well, there is not a minute where you don't feel in suspense because everything starts fast, as they say, first the consequence and surely they will show the cause of the whole apocalypse that the human race is facing.
Una de las cosas que me llamo la atención de esta primera temporada y no se si se sigue haciendo en la segunda, es que primero presentaron a ciertos personajes para posteriormente dar palabras claves sobre ciertos sucesos.
One of the things that caught my attention in this first season and I don't know if it is still being done in the second season, is that first they introduced certain characters and then they give key words about certain events.
Por ejemplo presentan a Barbara, Spears, Lance entre otros. Que por cierto, pensé en un momento que se trataba de una forma de destacar a los personajes que de cierto modo iban a ser protagonistas de toda la serie, sin embargo al transcurrir los capítulos nos damos cuenta que también es una herramienta para no perdernos, dado que muestra la serie y eventos en diferentes ángulos, es decir no hay un protagonista, acá intentan mostrar el ángulo y lo que vive cada uno, aun así el evento sea el mismo.
For example, they introduce Barbara, Spears, Lance, among others. By the way, I thought at one point that this was a way to highlight the characters that in a way were going to be protagonists of the entire series, however as the chapters go by we realize that it is also a tool to not get lost, since it shows the series and events in different angles, ie there is no protagonist, here they try to show the angle and what each one lives, even if the event is the same.
Esto por supuesto hace que cada capitulo sea un tanto pesado porque dan muchos detalles, pero a mi punto de vista es muy positivo porque no te deja con lagunas. Cada momento y personaje lo desarrollan muy bien a pesar de, como les comentaba al inicio, la historia es un poco trillada por no decir que es un cliché zombi.
This of course makes each chapter a bit heavy because they give a lot of details, but in my point of view it is very positive because it does not leave you with gaps. Each moment and character is developed very well despite, as I said at the beginning, the story is a bit trite, not to say that it is a zombie cliché.
Lo que me encanta es ver que de cierto modo a pesar de seguir un mismo patrón, como que o han tomado todo y agregado a la serie, dado que la lucha no es solo por la sobrevivencia contra los zombi, también con el caos y lo enfermo que puede ser la humanidad, pandillas, psicópatas, personas desesperadas por obtener gasolina y todo aquello que puede suceder dentro de un apocalipsis.
What I love is to see that in a way despite following the same pattern, they have kind of taken everything and added to the series, since the fight is not only for survival against the zombies, but also with the chaos and how sick humanity can be, gangs, psychopaths, people desperate for gas and everything that can happen in an apocalypse.
Hay que estar muy atentos a todos los detalles, porque absolutamente TODO se conecta de alguna forma, tomando en consideración que es una ciudad pequeña y que la zona de escape es una sola, un estadio que es un lugar deseado por todos los sobrevivientes, y quienes al final, se llevan una gran sorpresa.
You have to be very attentive to all the details, because absolutely EVERYTHING is connected in some way, taking into consideration that it is a small city and that the escape zone is only one, a stadium that is a place desired by all the survivors, and who in the end, get a big surprise.
Pero claro, no todos corren con la suerte de llegar vivos, o bueno al menos no siendo humanos.
But of course, not all of them are lucky enough to make it alive, or at least not being human.
