It's not every day that an idol anime kills its main character within the first two minutes of the show.
It's also not every day that MAPPA, a studio whose proclaimed purpose is literally to "achieve greater creative freedom to pursue projects that may be less obviously commercial", creates an anime that fits perfectly into the commercial mold like an idol anime. Zombieland Saga is more than just an idol anime, however. It is both a deconstruction and a love letter to the genre, showcasing some of the best and worst aspects of being an idol with a stylish flourish.
