I Am a Hero is a comedy/horror manga by Kengo Hanazawa, which was serialized in the seinen magazine Big Comic Spirits from 2009 to 2017 and compiled into 22 volumes.There isn't much to the life of a struggling artist. Hideo Suzuki, 35, is starting to believe he hit his prime back when he had a printed series that died after six months. The path to manga stardom has faded from view, leaving Suzuki pitching pandering Moe series and drawing porn to get by. His editor is bored with him, his seniors are short with him, and even his girlfriend seems out of his league. Underneath a happy-go-lucky facade, Suzuki is desperate: what do you do when you play a bit part in your own life?But there's considerably less-existential trouble brewing in the city streets. News reports have surfaced about a rash of biting assaults in crowded areas - here and there, someone seems to go berserk and sink teeth into the nearest bystander. Being around the same people every day, Suzuki's own risk for infection is low... but protagonism picks today to knock.Go figure.A uniquely weird Seinen series. Features realistic artwork that switches from funny faces to grotesque ones with outstanding impact.A film version was released in 2016 | |

Artistic License – Gun Safety | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_10134c97 | comment |
Artistic License – Gun Safety: The author averts this on every occasion. Hideo religiously follows proper firearm handling procedures. He checks the chambers every time he gets his hand on his shotgun and keeps it unloaded when he thinks he is not in danger. He has good trigger discipline. And when he has some time, he cleans the gun and shells. To top it off, when he has to (reluctantly) give the gun to other characters, he makes sure they remember the basic safety precautions. | |

A Form You Are Comfortable With: The Hive Mind chooses to represent itself this way to those who end up enveloped within it, but still aware of their existence as individuals. For Hiromi, it looks like a Message Board. | |

Madness Mantra | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_141a6acb | comment |
Hiromi herself is infected after being bitten by a zombified baby. She is still able to maintain some of her mental faculties and so far has not tried to attack or eat the main character, Hideo (she even tries to protect him when watching him get chased by a zombie). However, she often experiences periods of dissociation where, after tearing off the aforementioned zombie's jaw, she experiences herself in her room washing dishes when she is actually using the ripped jaw to rub the zombie's now jawless face. She then mutilates the unfortunate zombie, thinking she is performing surgery on her stuffed toy. Her behavior may explain the zombies' erratic violent behavior and tendency to spout Madness Mantras. | |

Technically-Living Zombie | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_1522d74 | comment |
Technically-Living Zombie: However, the infection gives them the unnatural resilience more often associated with traditional zombies, and increased strength to boot. After death, these zombies will generally become the undead type if they aren't killed in a way that destroys the brain stem ( damaging the upper part of the brain does not appear to be enough, from what happens with the jumper who takes out the Gotemba Outlet Mall survivors. | |

Transhuman Treachery | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_19f6e383 | comment |
Transhuman Treachery: Hiromi. When asked what she wants the others to do if she turns completely, she says that she wants to be left that way because she feels painfully alone as a human after experiencing the Hive Mind. She does eventually turn again, although what she becomes is too dangerous for her earlier wishes to be relevant. | |

I Need a Freaking Drink: When Hideo points out that Hiromi is too young to drink after the group raids the beer supply near the Fifth Station, she promptly points out that after the day they just had and thinking she might be infected, she couldn't even begin to care less. It's the last normal, pleasant thing she gets to do for a while because unfortunately, she's wrong about being okay. | |

Message Board | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_25880d84 | comment |
Message Board: Online communities play a role. They're the most Genre Savvy about a Zombie Apocalypse, have less direct human contact, and so have better odds of survival. Not that it prevents the flaky, morally questionable types from running things... Makes another appearance near the end when Hiromi finally gets absorbed by the Hive Mind and sees it as the same message board shown earlier (with some of the same posters, for good measure). | |

Death of a Child: In fact, zombified children are quite troublesome, as they are more difficult to spot and evade, especially in crowded places. See the gathering of refugees close to Mt. Fuji. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: A common impression of the ending for Hideo's plot line. Hideo ends up relatively content being alone in the post-apocalypse, but that doesn't change the fact that his attempt to get Hiromi to Tokyo and create a vaccine was a conga line of failure doomed from the start by the fact that she was actually an unknowing Horde Master rather than The Immune. No other main character in Hideo's group survives the severely botched attempt. The story as a whole averts this only because of the parallel plot, and Hideo's only contribution to the Bittersweet Ending is his undoing what he did as an inadvertent escort for the Big Bad. | |

Tomato in the Mirror: Apparently Iura. Although it's obvious enough to the audience and to Oda, he seems to believe he's uninfected because he was never bitten (The Virus can spread through other means as well, unfortunately for him). Played straighter with some of the Pisa and Paris "survivors", who believe that they and those around them are unaffected and are seen Through the Eyes of Madness. | |

| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Hideo's shotgun. It's simple but reliable and easy to operate. As a bonus, when someone unfamiliar with firearms takes the gun from him, they usually can't reload in time after firing. If anything, it's only practical for Hideo because he can reload the gun very quickly and he's the only one with enough skills and experience to use it. | |

Psychopathic Manchild | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_3ae6199a | comment |
Takashi also maintains most of his mental faculties after being infected, and his interactions with another infected imply that they still maintain some self-awareness after turning, though he briefly succumbs to their violent behavior once he realizes Kurusu killed a member of the group he had a crush on. He even goes on to become the leader of the group of survivors he was part of. It's also implied that Kurusu had actually been infected for quite some time before Takashi joined his group, which would explain most of his Psychopathic Manchild personality. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Humanity survives, but only just, and by the end a lot of the main characters are dead. Hideo's entire mission is revealed to have been doomed from the start, and he fails spectacularly at saving Hiromi, with her joining the hivemind and only allowing him to live because she believes that stranding him on his own in the ruins of Tokyo is a Fate Worse than Death. However, Hideo can adapt to his new environment and even thrive. In the epilogue, he finds that a ZQC tower has given birth to an ordinary human baby girl. The baby girl grows up to greatly resemble Hiromi, he names her Hiiro and lives his life content raising her as her father. As a bonus, what remains of Kurusu's group also made it out alive to a remote island away from the infected where they build their new lives there. | |

Not Using the "Z" Word: The online term for the infected becomes ZQN, a portmanteau with the Japanese slang DQN (Dokyun, meaning "delinquent" or "idiot"). At least one scanlation uses "zombfags", in stride with English-speaking chan parlance. | |

Elite Zombie | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_52cd5b94 | comment |
Elite Zombie: Combat types, child zombies, and a pregnant zombie are all seen early on. Later, Flesh Golem Brutes start to be assembled, we learn of the existence of creatures like Kuruso and the Naked Emperor who retain human-level intelligence, and most of the regular zombies are eliminated completely to build Hives (enormous Flesh Golems the size of a city block) from their bodies. At least one Horde Master briefly appears in charge of an enormous zombie conglomeration. While it appears in both the manga and movie, the athlete zombie that circles Gotemba Mall is the first direct example in the 2016 film; showing both Smart Zombie and Stalker traits. It notices Abe and Hideo conversing on the Mall roof and later uses their location as a target point to jump into the survivor camp; ambushing one of their medics with its jaw-mutation. It then goes on to infect the Gotemba Mall residents while their heavy hitters are on a supply mission, making a horde all its own. | |

CPR: Clean, Pretty, Reliable | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_55473bc9 | comment |
CPR: Clean, Pretty, Reliable: Subverted. After Hideo gets swallowed and then regurgitated by a large infected, he stops breathing. Hiromi and Oda then perform CPR (Hiromi, who has apparently become immune, gives Hideo mouth-to-mouth) and successfully revive him. However, several of his ribs are cracked by Oda compressing his chest, and it takes weeks for him to heal completely. | |

Through the Eyes of Madness: We get to see what the world looks like to a few of the Infected, most dramatically Hiromi and Takashi. This provides significant insight into the behavior of the other ZQN. It makes sense that the infected see the world around them this way since they're integrated to a Hive Mind which prevents them from seeing the outside world realistically. | |

Militaries Are Useless | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_68148dc | comment |
Militaries Are Useless: The Japanese Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) seemed to be decapitated during the early days of the zombie apocalypse since none of them were prepared for this scenario. While it's mentioned off-screen, other militaries like the French Armed Forces apparently downplayed this to a degree, since they still conduct airstrikes against zombies weeks or months after the initial outbreak. | |

Our Zombies Are Different | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_8ba9512b | comment |
Our Zombies Are Different: Zombies in this series come in several types: The first type is the Technically-Living Zombie phase. These creatures have an increased heart rate that might be fatal to a normal person, are hyper-violent, immune to fear and pain, and possess increased strength. They're also impossible to reason with. When these receive physical damage that would otherwise be fatal to a normal person (like, say, an impacted cranium from a three-story drop or a gunshot wound to the head), they change into ... The second type: true undead flesh eating zombies. These have no pulse, no breaths, and still retain the speed and strength of the previous type. Half-zombie hybrid: Hiromi and Kurusu, as well as several characters are bitten but do not turn into zombies. They retain most of their personality but are "blessed" with strength rivaling the zombies, and a Healing Factor as well. Zombies do not aggressively attack them, and as a bonus, they don't seem to suffer any ill effects like Horror Hunger. At least, not initially. The Flesh Golem created from multiple human bodies. It is also unknown what created them. The one assisting Hideo's group's escape at the hot spring seems to be fused. The one seen in Europe seems to be stitched together. And also the gigantic blob of flesh resulted from hundreds of zombies fusing. | |

Wham Episode: Chapters 144 and 145: Set in France, it's the first look at how the rest of the world is handling the Zombie Apocalypse. Not too well, and the zombies seem to be mutating too. And apparently, the French Armed Forces have to resort to airstrikes to deal with ''kaijuu-sized zombie conglomerations? Chapter 179: Oda finds out that she's pregnant, likely from an encounter before the outbreak. By the end of the chapter, she leaves Hideo and Hiromi to search for a clinic, not wanting to slow them down. Chapter 181: Oda is bitten by a zombified baby. Knowing it is too late to be saved she grabs hold of it, sustaining even more injuries before... Chapter 182: Oda, bitten by a baby and slowing turning, races to the back of a garbage truck and successfully goads Hitomi into crushing her. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Inevitably, in a zombie media. For starters, the gangsters pair in a Ferrari who threaten Hideo and Hiromi with a (airsoft) pistol. After Hideo spots a bite wound on one's arm, he pulls out his shotgun and drives them off. They get chomped down by the infected, which were drawn to the sound their car makes before they get a chance to turn. Also the older man murdered by the group at the Gotemba Outlet Mall. He didn't do anything to deserve being killed while there, but he's apparently sincere about having underworld connections and knowing people in the military and police force. He's almost definitely been the villain of someone else's story. | |

Shotguns Are Just Better | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_96ecc67e | comment |
Shotguns Are Just Better: Hideo's weapon of choice is an over-under double-barreled shotgun since its stopping power is more capable of blasting the zombies' heads off compared to average firearms. Not that he has many options, considering how difficult it is to acquire a gun permit in Japan. Subverted at times. Ammo can be in short supply, people with no experience reloading can have a hard time doing it quickly, and it's not got the greatest range or aim. Hideo has years of experience using it, but others sometimes struggle in very dangerous circumstances. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human? | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_9c45b5a2 | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Society is depicted at its most apathetic. And then there are the infectees who haven't completely lost their minds. Although as the new chapters show even those who have long been dead appear to not have completely forgotten their humanity. A hanged zombie finally dies when it's handed a portrait of its family (although it could have just been the head separating from the body after much straining on the zombie's part) Ditto for Hiromi's former friend (who was implied to be zombified after Hiromi left the house to go on a stroll in the woods at night) who appears to offer her a shoe. Hiromi herself is infected after being bitten by a zombified baby. She is still able to maintain some of her mental faculties and so far has not tried to attack or eat the main character, Hideo (she even tries to protect him when watching him get chased by a zombie). However, she often experiences periods of dissociation where, after tearing off the aforementioned zombie's jaw, she experiences herself in her room washing dishes when she is actually using the ripped jaw to rub the zombie's now jawless face. She then mutilates the unfortunate zombie, thinking she is performing surgery on her stuffed toy. Her behavior may explain the zombies' erratic violent behavior and tendency to spout Madness Mantras. Takashi also maintains most of his mental faculties after being infected, and his interactions with another infected imply that they still maintain some self-awareness after turning, though he briefly succumbs to their violent behavior once he realizes Kurusu killed a member of the group he had a crush on. He even goes on to become the leader of the group of survivors he was part of. It's also implied that Kurusu had actually been infected for quite some time before Takashi joined his group, which would explain most of his Psychopathic Manchild personality. | |

| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_9c8701b5 | comment |
A Day in the Limelight: Some chapters are dedicated to characters other than Hideo, such as Hiromi, Kazuya (the editor who rejected Hideo's manga pitch in Volume 1), and Takashi from Kurusu's group. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In the early chapters, one of the message board threads involved a poster who jokingly said that they're a representative of an alien force invasion that seeks (albeit forcefully via viral infection) to integrate humanity due to their similar biological structures and re-use human-made infrastructure for their purposes. Several dozen chapters later, and it became obvious as the zombie apocalypse's actual cause. The fact that zombies are migrating to the South was mentioned during the Kurusu segment of the story. Oda and Hiromi experience getting stuck in one first-hand, which leads to an Oh, Crap! moment for the two, especially as Hideo was incapacitated at the time. Miraculously the two of them get ignored, though they don't stick around to find out why. | |

Healing Factor | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_a5fb0d24 | comment |
Half-zombie hybrid: Hiromi and Kurusu, as well as several characters are bitten but do not turn into zombies. They retain most of their personality but are "blessed" with strength rivaling the zombies, and a Healing Factor as well. Zombies do not aggressively attack them, and as a bonus, they don't seem to suffer any ill effects like Horror Hunger. At least, not initially. | |

Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_b1bf5c9b | comment |
Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain: It's hard to say just how much is necessary for the latter as several of the infected have partially crushed skulls. Just knowing the method isn't an easy ticket for the police to control the outbreak. It turns out that the latter is the only way to kill zombies since zombies whose heads have been decapitated can still be attached to other headless zombies' bodies and continue operating as usual. | |

Bottomless Magazines: Averted. Considering he only has a double-barreled shotgun, Suzuki only manages to survive for so long because he is as good at reloading as he is at shooting. And he is constantly worried about restocking on ammo after the events at Gotemba Premium Outlets reduced his ammo supply from nearly 100 rounds to roughly a dozen. | |

Too Dumb to Live: The bit characters, which includes our hero. Apparently, nobody watches the news. On a commuter train, rather than running as fast as humanly possible, an angry youth continues to yell at a staff member staring through the window on the other side of the car even while it's clear blood is seeping from the staffman's eyes, nose and mouth, is constantly spouting Madness Mantras ("Thank You For Your Patronage"), and has tainted veins sprouting all over his face. Once it gets through, it takes a nice bite out of the youth's head, who stares disbelievingly at the mush of brain falling out before passing away. | |

However, his manga are successful and everyone speaks highly of his talent as well as his personality. Even Hideo has to grudgingly admit that Nakata is a good person and is good at what he does. | |

Zombie Infectee: Subverted. After the initial outbreak wiped out a large chunk of the population, the remaining survivor enclaves immediately woke up to the threat. After each encounter, they check each other for bites. The "suspicious" ones are isolated for hours to ensure they don't have the symptoms. Played straighter with Hiromi, although she doesn't hide her bite and neither she nor anyone else believes that it broke the skin (since it came from an infant). When she does turn She thankfully doesn't kill anyone, and is still mostly harmless. | |

While it appears in both the manga and movie, the athlete zombie that circles Gotemba Mall is the first direct example in the 2016 film; showing both Smart Zombie and Stalker traits. It notices Abe and Hideo conversing on the Mall roof and later uses their location as a target point to jump into the survivor camp; ambushing one of their medics with its jaw-mutation. It then goes on to infect the Gotemba Mall residents while their heavy hitters are on a supply mission, making a horde all its own. | |

Two Lines, No Waiting: There are two parallel plots to the manga. The main one obviously follows Hideo, as he first struggles to survive, then as he becomes more confident, culminating in his resolve to protect both Oda and Hiromi and get them safely to Tokyo. The other plot focuses on another group of survivors, mostly NEETs, who survived the outbreak and have banded together under a deadly man who goes by the moniker Kurusu... And they also happen to be heading in the direction of the Tokyo area. | |

Webcomic Time: The entire series (with the exception of the very end) takes place over the course of a short time in early 2009, despite being serialized until early 2017. | |

Groin Attack | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Groin Attack: Early on, the sensei Hideo works for has his penis bitten off by another man in the studio. Later, Iura, in an infection-induced bout of madness, yanks off his penis while jerking off. | |

Aerosol Flamethrower: Mitani used one to defeat an infected. It works, although it has only been used once so far. | |

Enemy Civil War | |

Enemy Civil War: Some of the Infected kill both humans and other Infected. A minor character suspects that this may be because of a civil war among the aliens who started the disease. | |

Alien Invasion | |
| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_f56aeb67 | comment |
Alien Invasion: An early guess as to what caused the infection. Also apparently the correct one. The ZQN is a way to wipe out humanity without destroying infrastructure, and eventually create alien/human hybrids. | |

| I Am a Hero (Manga) / int_f612d2d | comment |
Ignored Vital News Reports: Hideo does this twice. The first time is accidental. The second? Not so much. To be fair, everyone does this as well since none could've expected an actual zombie apocalypse to be on its way. | |
