He even colored all seven volumes of HOTD during the hiatus. Shouji was supposedly also taking his time with research on weapons, vehicles, and so on for future HOTD chapters. Reasons for the hiatus are scarce: Daisuke Sato doesn't seem to have been writing any other manga series at the moment, but Shouji Sato was still seen working on Triage X, a series that he produces by himself. In March 2011, the manga was put on hiatus it had fallen into Schedule Slips before, but Chapter 29 was the final nail, as it concluded the number of chapters needed for Volume 7.

The anime was licensed and dubbed by Sentai Filmworks in 2011, premiered on The Anime Network, and even streamed on VIZ Media's Neon Alley service for a while.

This manga, written by Daisuke Sato and drawn by Shouji Sato (no relation), is filled with monsters both living and nonliving, loads of guns, and big breasts on nearly every woman who is old enough to have them.Īn anime adaptation by Madhouse * with assistance from Asahi Production and Dogakobo aired during the summer of 2010 under the direction of Tetsurō Araki, who also directed Death Note for Madhouse, and would later direct Guilty Crown for Production I.G, and Attack on Titan and Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress for WIT Studio.

You try to call for help, but the lines are busy because of emergencies all over town.
