Who Would Survive?

Reality is that at room temperature without any blood flow to the brain you have 3-6 minutes before the brain dies and starts breaking down.
Once that happens, even if you manage to resurrect them, they be vegetables.
Even the borg wouldn't be able to reconstruct memories/personalities if they don't know what they are. But, they'd definitely make a good drone for them.

I understand the reality... though factoring what is being asked, and the series involved... I do not overly think reality fits.
ThreadWeaver, you may or may not be aware of it, but there was in fact an episode of Voyager where it was made quite clear by Seven of Nine that the borg could in fact resurrect a person up to I think it was 30 hours after death.... the how was not clear though. That episode is the entire reason I brought it up in the first place.
EDIT1: Actually, I just looked it up... 73 hours. The Voyager episode was from 4th season and called 'Mortal Coil'. And the info is in the 2nd edition of the Star Tek Encyclopedia. The method was modified nano-probes, but did not state exactly what they did. The person (Neelix) came through fine after 19 hours dead.
EDIT2: I'm willing to not bother including this in the list... but figured I'd mention it for completeness sake since the specifics were in question.
EDIT3: Species 8472 and Q from star trek come to mind as also able to survive a outbreak, the first due to them being so different biologically even the org could not infect them. And the latter because Q is not really a matter based life form at all... For that matter, neither is Negilim, The Metrons, Medusans, nor a few other star trek races.

A few new ones as a Smash Bros special...
Luigi Surviving and scared shitless
I actually have to give Luigi a better chance of survival than his brother. He's faster, stronger, a better jumper (And his yoshi-like Scuttle Jump is a good get away ability). Not only that, but his element is more useful against the dead, because while Mario's fire element will have burning zombies shambling after your sorry ass, Luigi's lightning ability can still have an effect on the dead muscles, seizing them up and possibly paralyzing zombies, at least temporarily. Also, Luigi's sheer cowardice means, unless he has a good damn reason to, he won't try playing the tough guy and he'll be hauling ass away from them (Although his occasional clumsiness would work against him)
Nana and Popo, the Ice Climbers Professional Survivalists
The Ice Climbers have a basic home field advantage of living in areas where Zombies would freeze solid. Add into the fact that the shuffling dead can't climb well, if at all on the sheer cliffs Nana and Popo frequent, as well as their freezing attacks, and the ice climbers have more to fear from living polar bears than dead zombies.
Kirby Dead, and he got a nasty last meal
We all know Kirby would soon eat a zombie and become one. No armor and few abilities aside from eating them? Kirby's dead
Meta Knight Survives
Given his skill with a blade, moderate armor and good escape capabilities, I'd say Meta Knight has a dang good chance of living

If you mean the guys from the movies, then I'd give the team, for the most part, a better chance than your average zombie movie protagonist (Except Jet Lee's character, again, primarily physical combatants have a disadvantage). They all have great training, weapons and military-like efficiency, and possibly some ideas of safe places to hole up and bunker down.
I kinda wish you'd go a bit more in depth on some of your parts, Heintz...
Anyway-
Sora (Kingdom Hearts) Survives...probably
Sora has a good range of abilities, a good range melee weapon, and a decent variety of spells (As well as that longer ranged ability he showed in the KH3 trailer). As long as he doesn't start using the fire spell too much (Burning zombies, again) he should be fine

Meh... everyone is a critic.
Actually, I had thought the reasons for each of those so obvious that explanations would not be overly needed...
It also allowed for a larger list and names in smaller space than if a whole paragraph was devoted to each...
In any case, I can only think of one addition, but not willing to bother with that person as yet.
As for whom would die... *wwwaaayyy* too many characters to count.

It's mixed bag on which of the DW cast would survive. A close range fighter/grappler like Meng Huo would have obvious problems. Spear/polearm users (Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, etc) should be fine as long as they don't use fire element attacks.
I guess that means Zhu Ran, Dong Zhuo, and most (if not all) of the Sun Family will be the first ones to go.

Anybody from Dynasty Warriors from 7 onwards would survive just fine. Secondary weapon means they all can equip a spear or other ranged weapon and GG.
Also, Zhang Jiao doesn't just set things on fire, he blows the whole area the fuck up in an inferno. Zombies would be charbroiled like every other peon in the game.

Luna the killer kung fu wolf bitch (boondocks)
.jpg)
dies eventually
Luna is master of several martial arts among them the deadly art of white lotus kung fu. and is champion of the mythical kumite (wahca)
in addition she has some knowledge of explosives
she is also crazy as all hell and prone to listianing to her friend nicole who gives her really really bad advice.
all of this leads to a very short lifespan
