 Zombie Land Saga REVEEEEEEEEEENGE is the sequel to the surprise hit anime of 2018, beginning on April 8th. For those who don't know, Zombie Land Saga is an idol anime about a bunch of girls who get brought back from the dead to save the Saga Prefecture from fading into obscurity. The anime was a hit, not only for completely fooling everyone prior to airing that it would be a regular zombie anime ala School Live or High School of the Dead, but also for its humor, its great characters, and for being very heartfelt. Plus it has some banger songs In the sequel, they will be getting their revenge. Revenge on who? I don't know; in fact, no one really knows what we're in for, so hopefully it will be just as loving crazy as Season 1. PV1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTpxcLNe1_o PV2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcgqj08Jwag   Sakura Minamoto (VA: Kaede Hondo) Our main heroine, Sakura was killed by Truck-kun ten years ago, and was brought back by Kotaro Tatsumi along with the other girls to save Saga. Is an egghead.   Saki Nikaido (VA: Asami Tano) The legendary kamikaze gang leader. She's the leader of Franchouchou along with Sakura, and helps to mediate the gang. Loves Tamagotchi and Eggs   Ai Mizuno (VA: Risa Taneda) The legendary Heisei idol. A shockingly amazing idol, she uses her electrifying talents in order to help lead the less experienced members of the group in practice.   Junko Konno (VA: Maki Kawase) The legendary Showa idol. She's the best singer of the group, having a deep singing voice. Likes to grow mushrooms on her fluffy hair.   Yugiri (VA: Rika Kinugawa) The legendary courtesan. She's the big sister of the group, even though Junko is slightly older than her by a few months. Has a slap that rivals Bright Noah, and needs her own episode now thank you Mappa.   Lily Hoshikawa (VA: Minami Tanaka) The legendary child actress. She's the youngest member of the group, and the most energetic. Has a big heart.   Tae Yamada (VA: Kotono Mitsuishi) THE LEGENDARY TAE YAMADA! She's so amazing that I can't begin to describe her on this page! She'll punish you in the name of the moon, and force you in (or out) of the robot.  Kotaro Tatsumi (VA: Mamoru Miyano) The manager of Franchouchou. He's a prick, but a loud, funny prick. He can also be geniuely helpful when the girls are at their lowest. May or may not be a Gundam. Willo567 fucked around with this message at 12:32 on Apr 5, 2021 |

Also, I decided to rewatch the series, and holy gently caress is Ai's death messed up. Spoiler: The fact that her body was completely charred black, and that she was hit around 20 times, means that underneath her bandages, she's loving coal. Not only that, but someone translated one of the articles while Ai was looking herself up, and it states that she didn't on the spot, instead dying on the way to the hospital. Combined with her PTSD, I assume that she breifly regained consciousness in the ambulance and was in agonizing pain

I'm gonna be honest, I never understood why Yugiri's head had to be stitched back on, when the other girls heads can come right off. I get that she probably got decapitated and that's how she died, but why couldn't Kotaro just plop her head back on like the rest of them?

So right now, there's a collaboration going on between Idolmaster Starlit Stage and Zombie Land Saga Revenge https://twitter.com/imascg_stage/status/1379313289818042369 In addition to a cover of Adabana Necromancy and a 3D movie of the concert, they also added sound effects... that are nothing but Kotaro yelling. https://twitter.com/deresute_eng/status/1379326483144052737

I just had a thought. What if in that scene of Kotaro yelling at the heavens while a storm is going on is Jim communicating with some devine being who's pissed that Kotaro brought the girls back to life, and now wants to destroy Saga as punishment

Also, the ending of the episode has me hopeful that this means they won't pass on, since (spoiler for the new episode) in the new episode, after Franchouchou inherits White Ryu's radio program, Saki tells the audience they aren't going anywhere, and that they shouldn't sweat it Also, the part where Yugiri tells Lily that she loves her is so loving precious

Speaking of which, I will never understand the people who ship her with Kotaro just because she blushed when he asked her how she felt about Saga Rock. Kotaro is too much of a dick to ever get a love interest anyway Willo567 fucked around with this message at 14:20 on Apr 16, 2021 |

Potential spoilers for episode 3: According to Saki's VA, apparently the girls are going to fact a huge crisis next episode. What do you all think it could ve? I think it will involve Ai leaving the group due to something related to Iron Frill.

I thought the episode would have to do more with Ai and Iron Frill, seeing as how they're focused on in the preview for episode 3

Hel posted:Since the original thread is locked I figured I'm gonna ask here: I started watching the first season and it seems ok so far, but is Tatsumi going to stop being an abusive shithead? It kinda takes the fun out of the rest of the series. That's the reason I refuse to ship any of the girls with him, even Sakura. Sakura and Ai would be much happier if they got with Saki and Junko respectively

Good episode again. I really liked Junko's guitar solo. I'm also happy that they're developing Ai and Junko's relationship more Spoilers for episode 3: Do you all think Ai would actually leave Franchouchou behind for Iron Frill? I couldn't see why she would, not to mention that she's a loving zombie

GhostStalker posted:I mean, multigenerational idol groups are a thing where members “graduate” and new ones join all the time. What year did Ai die again? She died at the height of Iron Frill’s popularity in the Showa Era, so mid 2000s? They’ve been around for 10 years or so (since it’s June 2019 at the moment in the anime) which if they’re super popular is not impossible. It's Sora Tokui, who also voiced Nico in Love Live. Also, I'm probably alone on this, but I actually like Ai the most, mostly due to her character arc on Season 1, and having a really determined attitude after episode 7

Other than to be at the top again, would there be any reason why Ai would leave her friends for Iron Frill? We haven't seen any indication that she even wants to do that

Takoluka posted:There's probably a small part of her that misses being on that hardcore level, but her current group was insulted to her face. She loves Franchouchou and her friends; she would never leave them. Part of me is worried that Ai will start to think that they want her out of the group. I say this because in the episode preview, there's a scene where the lunch she has spells out the word Hippo, when it was supposed to be Ganbare. My fear is that Iron Frill is going to make Ai think that Franchouchou is sick of her by doing stuff like this so that she'll be convinced to leave them.

So do the girls look different to whoever looks at them without their makeup? When the cop saw Junko in episode 2 last season, she looked fine apart from the sunken eyes and cheeks. This time she looked awful

Something I really like about the story so far is how Franchouchou is becoming more famous in Japan as the episodes progress, starting with the radio show, then being recognized as rivals by Iron Frill, and now Lily's performance going viral. I really hope that for the ending of Revenge, it ends with the girls either being ousted as zombies, or them revealing themselves as zombies, and Japan accepts them because they love the group so much. That way, they can all see their families again. These girls deserve a happy ending, not a sad one where the pass on
