MAPPA, Avex Pictures, and Cygames' Zombie Land Saga anime premiered in October 2018. Aniplus-Asia streamed the anime in Southeast Asia beginning in August 2020.
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 on September 5-6 with four performances. The play was originally scheduled to run in March 2020 in Tokyo with seven performances.
