I've always liked idol anime like love live and idolm@ster, but they are predictable and cliche sometimes. I've always wanted the idol genre to push its boundaries as much as they can. They all follow a predictable pattern, they are the underdogs trying to become popular or they are starting a group because one person wants to. I could go on, but let's focus on zombie land saga. Zombie land saga surprised me each and every week. You never knew what to expect week to week, even if you see the previews. There's tons of cool facts you can learn about saga just by watching the eye catchers, It inspired me to visit saga one day. I really like the combination of the zombie and idol genre,it kept me on my toes. I liked how they used the fact they are zombie not only as a plot device but a source of comedy relief.

I really liked the main character sakura, she never failed to amaze me. She was interested in idols and the energy they give their fans, only to die in that meme we all saw the second the first episode dropped.I loved the discussion and ideas presented each week, one I really like is how idols interact with their fans. Should idols keep a distance from their fans and not do meet and greets? Should idols be accessible to their fans and give them the time of day? Depending on what era you come from determines what question is more appropriate. What I always found interesting about zombie land saga, it never tried to give us the typical there's a unified answer to what an idol should be like. It's refreshing to see a show with a diverse and interesting cast. You get to see how they handle the fame, struggles and frustration individually and collectively. I also liked how every backstory built up a character and caused them to change slowly but surely.

The music and choreography were great, I found majority of the songs catchy and fun. I really liked the genres outside my comfort zone, they didn't feel cringey or out of place. The big appeal of any idol anime is the music and cute girls, which zombie land saga delivered in. I like how it started as awkward stumbles and movement to refined movement and confident vocals the more they practice. I especially enjoyed how the anime presented the obstacle of cooperation. Not everyone is going to get along or want to compromise even if they are part of a team. So in each episode, the relationships and conflict lead to unity and appreciation of each other's differences. I really liked how each individual part of zombie land saga contributed to my enjoyment, not one thing alone made me hate or enjoy the show less.
