On Monday November 21, Crunchyroll will release a Blu-ray edition of Zombie Land Saga Revenge, the sequel to the original series Zombie Land Saga. The story is described as follows:
"Everyone's favorite zombie idol group is back (from the dead)! After a disastrous concert, the members of Franchouchou are more determined than ever to save Saga Prefecture with their growing fame while recovering long-lost memories of their past lives."
Zombie Land Saga Revenge premiered in Japan in April 2021. Crunchyroll streamed the sequel as it aired in Japan.
MAPPA, Avex Pictures, and Cygames' original Zombie Land Saga anime premiered in October 2018. The anime follows Sakura Minamoto, who dreams of being an idol, but is hit by a car and wakes up as a zombie. A man named Kōtarō Tatsumi appears and tells her he's recruiting her into an idol group made up of zombies, dead girls he has "recruited" from several eras of Japanese history.
The anime inspired a stage play titled Zombie Land Saga Stage de Do-n! at Sōgetsu Hall in Tokyo last September with four performances.
The anime inspired its first side story manga titled Zombie Land Saga Gaiden: The First Zombie by character deisgner Kasumi Fukagawa. The manga launched in Shueisha's Ultra Jump magazine on May 19.
