Zom 100 is about to have quite the summer, not just thanks to its anime adaptation, but thanks in part to its live-action feature-length film that will arrive soon. Netflix is set to release the movie for Zom 100: Bucket List of The Dead on August 3rd, showing the popularity of the premise across a number of mediums. With the original manga still releasing new chapters to this day thanks to creators Haro Aso and Kotaro Takata, the possibility of future anime seasons and live-action movies is that much stronger.
