Bucket List of the Dead #10

Volume 10 of Haro Aso and Kotaro Takata's *Bucket List of the Dead* arrives dressed in striking contrast: two young women in elaborately patterned kimono — one in vivid pink florals, the other in a flowing teal — pose against a backdrop of cherry blossoms, teal paint splashes, and the silhouette of a red pagoda. The image carries a playful, almost festive energy that feels wonderfully at odds with a series set against a zombie apocalypse, which is exactly what makes this French-language edition from Big Kana so intriguing. For readers following the series in 2023, this tenth volume promises that the story's blend of heartfelt humanity and wild survival stakes is very much still alive.
