CHARACTERS

Sakura Minamoto

Zombie No. 1. First out of the 7 zombies to awaken. She doesn’t have her memories from the time when she was alive. She often has to play the straight man within the group. Speaks in the Karatsu dialect.

Saki Nikaido

Zombie No. 2. Kamikaze captain of the “Dorami”, a legendary biker gang. A typical delinquent who often threatens to kill, but will befriend anyone with guts. Used to be obsessed with “Tamagotchi” when she was alive.

Ai Mizuno

Zombie No. 3. Used to be the immovable center of top idol group “Iron Frill”. She is strong-willed and not afraid to speak up. Seems to be extremely skeptical of Kotaro's schemes.

Junko Konno

Zombie No.4. The legendary idol who triggered the idol boom in the '80s. While she is reserved and excessively modest, she has strong conviction as an idol and is the best singer among the seven.

Yugiri

Zombie No. 5. The legendary courtesan who lived through the tumultuous times between the Bakumatsu and Meiji Restoration. Open-minded and calm, she is neither swayed by the fact she was resurrected in a world 150 years later, her surroundings nor herself being a zombie.

Lily Hoshikawa

Zombie No. 6. A child prodigy who starred on every TV channel’s primetime. Despite being the youngest, she possesses the courage to stand on every stage. While behaving innocently, she sometimes shows her true dark side. Surprisingly knowledgeable.

Tae Yamada

Zombie No. 0. The only one who is not fully conscious and the most zombie-like member. She seems to understand what the other members say, to a certain extent. Nevertheless, she always gives in to natural instinct and ends up biting Junko.

Kotaro Tatsumi

A mysterious idol producer. Never takes off his black sunglasses. This eccentric man with a constantly outrageous behavior, is the very man who resurrected 7 legendary (?) zombies for the “Zombie Land Saga Project”, the project to revitalize the Saga Prefecture.

Romero

Kotaro's pet zombie dog. Supposedly a toy poodle, although according to various people his size always changes. Being a zombie dog, he can gobble up food that would be bad for most dogs. His favorite food is cuttlefish.
