But when exactly do new episodes arrive on Netflix? Here’s everything to know!

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead episode release schedule

Since the series premiere of Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead debuted on Sunday, July 9, a new episode would usually release on Netflix every Sunday. However, we saw the first delay with the fourth episode. Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead episode 4 was supposed to drop on the streaming platform on Sunday, July 30, but its release was pushed to the following day (July 31) due to production issues. Unfortunately, we’re seeing another delay with the fifth episode.

Netflix usually releases new titles at approximately 3:01 a.m. ET/12:01 a.m. PT. Even so, be sure to check back in frequently for any changes to the release time!

What is the Zom 100 episode 5 release date?

Originally, Zom 100 episode 5 was supposed to be released on Netflix on Sunday, Aug. 6, 2023. However, the fifth episode has been officially delayed. It will now drop on Netflix on Sunday, Aug. 13, 2023. It’s also believed to drop at 2:00 a.m. PT/5:00 a.m. ET on this date.

Why is Zom 100 episode 5 delayed?

The reason why the fifth episode’s release date has been changed is because of a special program airing on Aug. 6. Instead of Zom 100 episode 5 airing on Aug. 6 in Japan, a special zombie apocalypse preparation program will air in its place. Unfortunately, we won’t get to see this special program on Netflix, though.

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead episode count

As of now, we don’t quite know how many episodes we can expect out of this anime release. However, based on many other Netflix anime, we think it’ll be best to expect a minimum of eight episodes and a maximum of 24 from the first season.
