The fall 2018 anime series Zombieland Saga has been a series with an eagerly anticipated sequel, and we learned the good news about it at the end of 2020, about the new sequel series Zombieland Saga Revenge. That show got underway with an April 8th, 2021, premiere and wrapped up well just before the summer period. We learned in October 2021 that a feature film project was coming and that the undated 2025 release would be titled Zombieland Saga: Dream Galactic Paradise.
The film saw an October 24th, 2025, theatrical release in Japan, and is now setting its home video release plans there. The release is scheduled for May 27th, 2026, priced at 15,000 yen, where it’ll include two Blu-ray discs and two CDs. The main disc is the main feature that includes the clean closing. The second disc includes multiple stage events and greetings as well as various promos. The first CD is the original soundtrack while the second is a drama CD.
While we still expect a full packaging spread to come closer to its release, we do now have a preview of the two main covers for the set below that highlights some great character artwork.
Check out our review of the first series.
The series was directed by Munehisa Sakai based on the series composition by Shigeru Murakoshi, who also wrote most of the scripts. Kasumi Fukagawa handled the character designs while MAPPA oversaw the animation production.
The Japanese cast includes Mamoru Miyano as Kōtarō Tatsumi, Kaede Hondo as Sakura Minamoto, Asami Tano as Saki Nikaidō, Risa Taneda as Ai Mizuno, Maki Kawase as Junko Konno, Rika Kinugawa as Yūgiri, and Minami Tanaka as Lily Hoshikawa.

Plot Concept: Throughout the ages, a group of legendary girls have become zombie idols to save Saga Prefecture. It’s the return of the cutting-edge zombie idol anime! One day, Minamoto Sakura lost her life in an unfortunate accident. Then, ten years later… After Sakura wakes up in a strange mansion, mysterious idol producer Minami Kotaro tells her that she will be joining a group of legendary girls to form an idol unit. The seven girls are charged with a quest to save the fading Saga Prefecture and adopt the group name Franchouchou. After overcoming the difficulties stemming from their different ages and different periods of history, their undead zombie bodies allow them to defy expectations of what idols can be. During the final winter of the Heisei era they performed their first featured concert at Karatsu’s Furusato Exhibition Hall, Arpino, taking another step towards becoming a legend. Now, in the modern Reiwa Era… The curtain rises on a new chapter in the story of Franchouchou, as they march towards a bright future full of hope.
