Zombieland Saga

This is an interesting anime with a unique premise and decent animation. The voice acting is pretty good, and overall I have no problems with it.

Like a season has come out so far. I was planning on editing this review as episodes came out but I'm not going to do that. This show is awesome. The characters are great. Everything is great. Watch it.

Sakura Minamoto is a high school girl who dreams of becoming an idol... right up until she steps in front of a speeding truck. She wakes in a strange building and discovers that she is surrounded by zombies. She flees and asks a cop for help... he looks at her in terror; it turns out that she too is a zombie! She is then helped by Kotaro Tatsumi, a rather manic individual whose idea to save the city of Saga is to raise various girls from the dead to create an all zombie idol group! Sakura gets to know the other girls and they start to perform; all the time trying to hide the fact that they are zombies from the public... something not easy when their heads occasionally fall off.

This series is without a doubt one of the highlights of the season. The premise may be totally bonkers but it really works. Of course these aren't conventional zombies; only one of them, the hilarious Tae Yamada, doesn't regain her consciousness; and apart from Sakura they all remember their pasts. Their characters are nicely varied and the fact that they were raised from the dead means they can come from different time periods in some cases. Their designs are impressive; they only look like normal girls when made up to go out in public. The comedy elements really work with plenty of laugh out loud moments in every episode. Overall I'd definitely recommend this series even if you don't usually like idol shows or zombies.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

A very unique idol anime. Follows a young girl, who aspires to be an idol herself. However, before she could achieve this dream, she dies in a collision with a truck.

10 years later, she awakens as a zombie and meets several other girls, as well as her new manager I believe? Sorry, my memory is kinda fuzzy lol

These girls become an idol group made to save the dying idol industry, I believe.

Anyways, this show is definitely worth the watch. It's unique, different and interesting. Great characters, great songs, great comedy.

I love it. I would recommend it to any idol anime fans, the art style is also very pretty.

The first few episodes of this were phenomenal. The first minute or so of the first episode was one of the best in any anime I've ever seen, and the rap battle in the second episode (I think) was EXTREMELY COOL! It did everything right, and it was an amazing fresh take on the idol genre! I was thinking I might be able to give this a 10, but then later on in the first season it devolves into just a really good idol show, with the zombie part as more of an afterthought. Still, I love all the characters (especially tae-Chan and the manager, I know he seems kind of annoying but I love him), the music is banging, the visuals, while not the best of all time, give the show a really fun aesthetic, the drama feels real, and the interactions are great. The part of the second season I've seen so far picks up the slight bit of slack of the first, and it's really awesome too! The tae-Chan episode had me absolutely rolling around in laughter! Overall, so far this show is a fresh, unique take on the idol genre, and I cannot recommend it enough. The only other idol anime I've seen is love live and the shows connected to that, and this is definitely better than that.

This anime is a very good one, because I like horror and the art is extraordinary! And it's go fantastic!
