"I'll do my best! What I said after the guerrilla concert wasn't a lie!"
Sakura asked Ai if she could become an idol. However, Ai, who had actually been an idol, saw that she was lacking in everything. Sakura knew she still had a long way to go, but she told Ai that she was serious. And she told Ai that everyone else was serious too.
No. 9: One Fan

"This girl looks like she's having fun! She's smiling!"
Franchouchou began their guerrilla live performance in front of Karatsu Station. As they had practiced, Lily collapsed. When they stopped singing for a moment, people started to leave. Just as Sakura was standing there, unable to remember the lyrics, she heard singing from beside her. Ai and Junko were also there, and the mood suddenly became more lively. The atmosphere returned, but not a single person stopped. Still, as they continued singing, a girl danced along and said this: It was a truly touching scene.
8th Place: Lily Hoshikawa's Rebellion

"I'm not a little girl! I'm Hoshikawa Lily, the brightest star shining on the stage!"
Even though Saki called Lily a little girl, she struck a pose and responded. Lily had no doubt about her own cuteness. This line must have made many people Lily fans!
7th Place: Deciding on a Unit Name

"Hey, everyone. It's not a sneeze. It's a sneeze, but it's not a sneeze. This is the name of the reborn Lily and the others!" "Franchouchou! Lily and the others' new name!"
In episode 1, the Idol Zombies called themselves "Death Girls." In episode 2, they called themselves "Green Faces." However, they decided that the team name given to them by Kotaro Tatsumi was lame. When Tae sneezed, Lily heard something else. It was the group name, and everyone liked it.
#6: Zombies, Life or Death?!

"Then why were you guys idols? They're zombies, but they're trying to live." "How long do you intend to stay rotten?"
From the perspective of an experienced idol, the remaining five zombies are nothing more than beginners. Their pride as former professional idols seems to be refusing to practice with them. And then, when Ai leaves the practice field, Junko follows her. Tatsumi Kotaro responds by talking about his emotional issues. Hmm, that's a deep line for a zombie.
No. 5: Sakura's Feelings

"I have no memories of what happened before I became a zombie, but I feel like I've felt that way before somewhere." "I wanted to feel that feeling again, to find out what it was, and to stand on stage again, that's what I thought!"
Ai asks Sakura why zombies aspire to be idols. Sakura's answer is that she wants to feel the happiness she felt on stage last time again. This feeling later motivates the other members. Such a heroic line.
No. 4: Surrounded by Zombies

"Don't worry! The others are in a much worse state!"
Sakura learns that she died 10 years ago and has become a zombie. A mysterious figure then tells her her goal: to "save Saga." Sakura asks why she wants to become an idol. However, Sakura, who has no memories of her life, expresses her anxiety about becoming an idol. In response to this, Tatsumi Kotaro compares her to the others.
3rd Place: Sakura's True Feelings

"Even though you have the greatest talent, giving up without doing anything is just defeat!" "Don't think about why you can't do it! Let's find a way to do it!"
Ai, the legendary idol of the Heisei era, and Junko, the legendary idol of the Showa era, are both unenthusiastic about being idols, perhaps because they still don't want to be idols even after their deaths, or perhaps their idol pride doesn't allow them to accept the current situation. Sakura responds by expressing her feelings in a rap.
No. 2: It's Okay to Get Shot

"We really were shot yesterday, weren't we?" "We thought we were going to die." "But they're already dead."
Sakura arrives to bring back Ai and Junko, who have escaped. Just then, a trio of rappers from Saga appears. Sakura and the others become frightened and run away. Ai calls for help when a police officer arrives. The officer, frightened by Sakura and the others' zombie appearances, fires again. Junko and Ai reminisce about what happened yesterday. They realize their reality.
No. 1: It All Started Here

"Not a single person here has any expectations of you. I certainly don't have any expectations of you."
"That's why! That's why you have to turn it all upside down! You are the ones who will turn Saga's, no, all common sense upside down." "Believe me! You can do it!"
Sakura is informed that he died 10 years ago and has become a zombie. The mysterious figure then reveals his goal: to "save Saga." Sakura asks why they want to become idols. In response, Tatsumi Kotaro explains his clear, yet grandiose, project: "Saving Saga." This is where Tatsumi Kotaro begins introducing the legendary women he has gathered to save Saga...
Summary
Franchouchou begins her idol career while hiding the fact that she's a zombie. While there are many works that involve secrets, the zombie x idol theme remains a novel one. The zombie-themed characters have also led to memorable scenes and quotes. I'm sure they'll continue to captivate fans. Be sure to check out the anime "Zombie Land Saga."
