My reaction to the chapter Around the world and above was surprising. The one specific interview that I want to talk about is the one when the student that lives in Tokyo was knowing about everything that was going on and wasn't scared. He stayed on his computer still studying and still memorizing facts that would no longer help him in the zombie world. He was so I on blogging and learning information about who the people were going to overthrow the living dead that he didn't realize that his parents were missing and he still doesn't know what happened to them. Throughout that interview the interviewer kept asking if he was afraid or worried he wasn't. Not until he the computer reception went out and he no long was receiving blogs and when we was in his hallway covered in black slime was when he realized that he should have took survival skills more seriously.
I understand that it is typical for Asian students to want to be wrapped around with knowledge but I think that he took the learning and shelter to a different level. My theory is that maybe he thought that if he stayed in his apartment and kept blogging that time will pass and the zombies would be vanquished before he knew it. I also think that he didn't realize that his apartment wasn't zombie proof and that they attack anybody at anytime in anyplace.
