Bucketlist Of The Dead Episode 4 Issues

The Bucketlist of the Deafd is fast becoming one of the popular anime released during the Summer, at least in the US. It was able to fill in the gap in the demand for an anime/manga telling the story of a character's life during a zombie outbreak in Japan. 

The last anime & manga that did so, "Highschool of the Dead," abruptly ended and was canceled due to its author's death. With no one to continue the story, both manga and anime went into obscurity, only to be remembered by those who watched/read it. 

While Bucketlist of the Dead is gaining quite a number f readers/watchers, those who're waiting for the anime's latest episode may have to wait until next week. According to Crunchyroll's news release, the Bucketlist of the Dead's fourth episode will not air on July 30 at 5 PM JST on certain streaming services due to production issues.

The delay is caused by production issues that affected the anime's distribution across its partner streaming services, per Anime Corner. Unfortunately, neither this publication nor Crunchyroll reveals the nature of the production issue in question.

As a result, Bucketlist of the Dead will air on July 31 at 6 PM JST on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix. 

As expected, those who wish to watch the Bucketlist of the Dead's fourth and preceding episodes ad-free must purchase a plan subscription first before they can do so.

The cheapest subscription to Crunchyroll costs $7.99 per month, while Netflix's Basic plan costs $9.99 after the increase it previously announced, per Business Insider. Hulu's ad-free plan, meanwhile, comes with a $14.99 price tag

Based on the manga by Haro Aso and Kotaro Takata, the Bucketlist of the Dead tells the story of 24-year-old Akira Tendo, a mentally and physically spent salary person with three years of seniority under the company from hell. When life was about to get worse for him, however, the zombie apocalypse descends on Japan, which helped Akira realize something:

"Wait, does this mean I never have to go to work again?"

With his nightmare job culled by the hungry zombies, Akira now has his time and life back, allowing him to fulfill his bucketlist during the zombie apocalypse.

The Bucketlist of the Dead is directed by Kazuki Kawagoe under studio BUG FILMS, with Hiroshi Seko of "Jujutsu Kaisen" fame responsible for the series' composition.
