A special visual of Franchouchou in Hisamitsu Springs’ uniform was released to celebrate the news.

The second season of ZOMBIE LAND SAGA, dubbed ZOMBIE LAND SAGA REVENGE, finished in June 2021 with a film confirmed for the undead idol series. You can watch both seasons of the ZOMBIE LAND SAGA right here on Crunchyroll, which describes the anime as such:

 

A typical morning. The usual music. Their normal lives. The peace these seven girls experience will suddenly be destroyed. By the living dead… zombies. A reality that they never wanted a part of, an amazing and terrifying zombie world. They all share one wish: “We want to live.” These girls will struggle through this saga, in order to achieve a miracle. MAPPA, Avex Pictures, and Cygames team up to bring you a juicy, 100% original anime. A timeless shocker for all audiences, a brand new style of zombie anime, will soon rise.

 

And no, the legendary Yamada Tae’s head won’t be used as a ball during the match. Something about regulation balls only…
