Tamagawa Kuyakusho of the Dead (Tamagawa City Office of the Dead / 玉川区役所)

I've drunk too much.

Even though we were splitting the bill, I drank

Even though we were splitting the bill.

There's no way I could turn down Yoshio-Chan.

Ah... that's right, she left a while back.

Ah, still not at my house?

Good grief, I'm drunk.

Ow!

Ow, ow, ow!

Ouch it hurts!

Hey, you startled me!

What's this! Hold on...

What are these?

Hold on...

Miss, what could these be? What are they?

Take that!

Stop it you pervert. Hey Ken-Chan!

You're showing off in front of that girl!

Ah sorry.

What is it? A zombie?

It stinks!

Oh, we're super lucky!

I've never seen one before.

It's been totally quiet recently right.

Up close they look rather grotesque don't they.

Look out, look out, over here!

Hey, hey, do you want a bite?

Stinky!

Look here, have a bite, go on.

Hey, if you keep at it, what if it gets a bite and you bleed?

It's fine. It's got a mouthpiece.

Mayu

Hey, let's get a picture.

A picture? Hey don't move.

Hurry up. Wait a minute.

OK, zombie!

Show me, show me.

Ow, crap, crap, crap!

Ah Dad, could you get the mayonnaise?

Ahh, My tie, my tie, my tie.

Hold on, what are you doing? Just a last mouthful.

Stop putting mayonnaise on everything.

It's fine surely, to eat what you like.

He doesn't have that right.

Right's... it's only a bit of mayonnaise. This is a married couples problem.

Hey Miwa what's up? Recently you've been really irritable.

Stop it, it's unpleasant first thing in the morning.

What? That's right, that kind of talk is

inappropriate for the morning. Inappropriate? Me?

It's fine dad. Naohiro-kun.

I'm off.

Just the one piece of toast every morning, it's not enough to do a proper job.

Well for that sort of work... Hey Miwa.

As a sister you should have more concern for your brother.

In his condition he's going to be late again.

It's him, he'll be fine.

What do you think about the continuation of

the part of the local administration known as Tokufuku?

Well, the number of zombie's are decreasing every year

due to immunization and safety measures wouldn't you say?

I think it would be okay if it were dismantled.

They're doing it again.

Ah Shinsuke's department.

What do you think of the continuance of the Special Welfare Department?

The Tokufuku is just a hangout for bums at the Town Hall isn't it?

Hey mum.

What shall we do if he becomes a neet?

Wow, you can still buy books for studying for Tokuho.

What was Tokuho again? It's that thing, right.

I've completely forgotten. Special Health Preservation... or something like that.

I don't get it. Well it's been a long time!

Akabane Shinsuke reporting in for duty!

Omori sir, good morning. You're on good form.

So was it a new record right? Yes!

I worked up a good sweat.

Okay, well everyone, let's have a quick break.

Episode 1: Tamagawa Council Offices, zombie Department

Subtitles by Osa Kyoudai

Er, well it's a bit sudden but hello.

My name is Akaha Shinsuke and I'm the hero of this story.

16 years ago

an undead corpse, otherwise known as zombie, was discovered in West Mexico.

The cause is unknown.

Once bitten, there is no cure and

zombies spread across the world.

Mankind fell into a huge panic.

What's with all these zombies, get off me!

But as everyone knows their intellect is lacking,

and their movement is slow. So as their fighting strength became known,

Mankind regained it's composure and was able to cope.

The situation was under control.

After that, the frequency of zombies decreased rapidly.

Have you had your anti zombie protection?

Even if bitten, a vaccine was developed to prevent infection,

if by the slightest chance there was an outbreak, safety measures were prepared. measures are put in place.

Don't run,

Zombies move slowly don't they.

Gradually over the years the public's fear of zombies faded and

A special department for the welfare of zombies was set up nationwide.

The main area of work is to capture any remaining zombies and to

visit infected people in their homes.

Simply said

we deal with matters relating to zombies in connection with the public.

Again you made it by the skin of your teeth. It's not good enough!

I'm sorry.

This is the Special Welfare Dept's activity coordinator, Chief Okawa Tsuyoshi.

My immediate supervisor.

Even during work he never misses training, he's a muscle head.

Hey you, don't drink protein drinks at work!

Just look at this, boss!

Because he neglected his duties, he got transferred here.

Tanokura, you must be ready for emergencies, prepare your body!

It's fine isn't it, we've got lots of free time.

Kyoutan

Tanokura is responsible for facilities management

Therefore, It's always you

looking at me with lascivious eyes. I'm not looking.

There's no way I'd look! You're secretly taking pictures of me,

with that thing. Peeping tom! I'm not a peeping tom!

Anyhow Abai-San has big plump thighs

you can't help but look. What!

What do you mean "what" I'm devoted to my beloved Kyoutan!

Ah I get it. That looks just like me when I was young.

I'll kill you bastard! There's no way she looks anything like you.

He transferred here from the nursing dept, where he was suspected of covert photography.

He's an unequaled idol otaku.

Hey, Okawa is teasing me again.

Can't you do something? I'm waiting for my nails to dry.

Oi, you're bothering Nagisa-Chan.

Not really.

That women is the office secretary. Her name is Ono Nagisa.

With an outstanding sense of beauty, but also a catastrophic tsundere. Transferred from the family register department.

Akabane-kun once you finish up, you can do what you want.

Okay. I'm sorry,

it's not really part of your job.

No, it's fine, I'm just killing time...

I mean I'm not busy just now.

This is the department boss, Omori-San

He's far from the man who was once a decorated member of the Self Defense Force.

He's very leisurely and it's hard to get a sense of him. He's the boss.

Is that right, men with a gap are popular...

Well hello hello all you zombie department people.

Ah! Koda Sensei! Why does it have to be you Koda?

Have you come to flirt with Akabane again?

I've come to get this month's list of newly infected people.

Having infected people here is yucky.

Tokuho right, short for Special Health Preservation Target Group :)

Everyone has become nervous so we've had to shorten it to one word.

Still calling a zombie

an undead corpse, what's with that?

A zombie is a zombie right. Calling it a zombie is wrong!

Sensei here you go.

Flyboy right! From Dawn of the Dead.

I found it by chance on the internet I thought it right up your street.

Oh thank you! So anyway Sensei,

if it's OK with you, would you go to dinner with me tonight?

Do you know why he's called "Flyboy?"

In the masterpiece "Dawn of the Dead" directed by George A. Romero,

the protagonist some how

was able to control a helicopter.

Koda Kenji is a associate professor at Tamagawa medical college.

He heads another team in the Special Welfare Dept. and governs general medical care.

He was dispatched from the main office,

He's young and deals with zombie virus research.

They're definitely better when fresh.

Sensei, there is someone from Tokuho for an inspection.

Satsukawa-kun, I'll be right there.
