Poorly written, filler characters, unnecessary scenes.

Let me start by saying I'm a fan of the genre, and I really like Kingdom.
I was looking forward to this serie, and was very excited when I saw the trailer.

All of Us Are Dead can be quite entertaining if you just care about the gore and the adrenaline of the characters being chased by pretty fast zombies. But it has a major problem: there are too many characters and groups. None of them are interesting or developed enough for you to get attached and care about them, and there is too much stupidity happening even for a teen-centric story. It also lacks actual action in the killing zombies department.

The "hero" is likable enough and active. Some might even find his teenage awkwardness relatable. But I found a lot of his scenes with the second lead, which were meant to be humorous, extremely cringy and ridiculous. Think about this, who the hell would want to talk about "girls/boys" while standing outside of a window on the 3rd floor, with zombies everywhere? Survival instinct and urgency seems to slip their minds a lot actually.

Then is this serie supposed to be a comedy like Zombieland?
That's the thing, I don't think it's meant to be a comedy but it ends up becoming one.

Also, if you're a female viewer expecting to see a strong female heroine, I'm sorry to tell you this is one of those that only show women as dumb, useless and annoying. The one female character that has potential is hardly shown which is very disappointing.

I don't want to drop this serie yet, so I marked it as such. But I have doubts that I will be able to complete it.
