Zombieland Saga Revenge episode 1 released last Thursday, and it’s the start of the 2nd season for the show. It starts Ai singing an epic company song as we see the rest of Franchouchou also doing part-time jobs. They are apparently in debt, and our favorite Kotaro is nowhere to be seen. Not until we see him coping at a bar, drunk and way different. Since he set up a huge gig due to the tight deadline for the project, it bombed and that was the cause of the debt. He gave up and started drinking, and Sakura is determined to get him back. Kotaro finally acted like himself at the end of Zombieland Saga Revenge episode 1, and it just doesn’t feel the same without his energy. 305j2b
The girls couldn’t handle the makeup on their own, but they were leading somewhat normal lives. Determined to make a comeback, they wanted to pay back the debt and perform again, but Kotaro was crucial. Sakura was most determined, and gave him a heartfelt speech, but it seemed hopeless. So she gave up in the end and they decided to hold their 1-year anniversary show without him. Besides their two most loyal fans, the crowd didn’t like their opening as they got nervous and ed the failure. They were almost booed off the stage, when Kotaro appeared.
He had barely made it after a barkeeper managed to push him into action. The project seems more serious than we thought, and this man knows about it. He called Franchouchou by the wrong name on purpose, and pushed our boy into action. When he made it, he started yelling “Encore” and caused a fight, yelling at the girls to sing. The two loyal fans also ed in, and the girls finally broke their slump and nailed the performance.
