Eh, Ran is alive in my fanfic, so it's okay. I actually liked his past and death in the manga (shame he has to be a zombie now though), and something tells me that the anime won't go there. They will either forget about him or kill him off without revealing his backstory.

Also, who is going to kill Lubbock if Izou wasn't introduced? I bet it will be Budo, unless of course they don't kill him off either.
