North American anime distributor Viz Media announced on Thursday that it is partnering with Sentai Filmworks to stream the Highschool of the Dead television anime series dubbed and uncut on its Neon Alley service starting on Friday at 10:00 p.m. EDT. New episodes will then premiere on Fridays.

Madhouse 's anime adapts Daisuke Satō and Shoji Sato 's zombie horror manga that follows a group of students and a school nurse who try to survive a worldwide plague that has turned people into the living dead. Sentai Filmworks released the series on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in North America in June 2011. Yen Press is releasing the original manga in North America.
