Every episode feels as intense as it could possibly be. “Six episodes to do this much material is difficult,” said showrunner Naren Shankar during a New York Comic Con panel with members of the cast.

How will this play out? Well, I suppose we’ll learn that next time, anime fans.Season six of Amazon’s The Expanse will be only six episodes, significantly shorter than the previous 10- or 13-episode runs, but it will still wrap up the series by adapting the sixth Expanse novel, Babylon’s Ashes, and the novella Strange Dogs. It’s ridiculous, it’s silly, it’s so very Zombie Land Saga Revenge. Yes, one of the series’ running gags is abruptly shuffled into an actual plot development. Fittingly, the actual last thing that happens in “Walking Bet SAGA” (post-credits, even!) is Shinta, still trailing Tae, happened to catch a photo of her head falling off. Coincidentally, this is enough to dig Franchouchou out of their financial hole.īut nothing is ever this simple in Zombie Land Saga Revenge.
“Walking Bet SAGA”‘s deeply silly main plot thus concludes with Tae winning 20 million yen (about $180,000 USD) from a boat racing bet. The underdog is Misa and she wins the race. Tae sneezes on a betting card after sucking on a pen (ew) which fills it in just enough that she picks the underdog. Misa shows up here, apparently having given up racing motorcycles for racing speedboats. One intervention by a recurring crooked cop character later, Tae and the breakdance team find themselves at a boat race. Though she has to be convinced to care about the prize money at all, being more inclined to toss it in a trash can and make off with the other half of the prize a bag of onions. She, of course, ends up winning the whole thing. Tae ends up getting mixed up in a competition that involves said troupe, as well as the chicken mascot also from a season one. Here we learn that Maria, the delinquent from season one, has formed a dance troupe.

(And, funnily enough, makes off with an apple left as a grave offering.) Though she does make an interesting stop at a graveyard, where she pointedly visits one grave in particular. In of itself, there’s nothing complicated here.
She goes to the grocery store to get some ingredients for curry. Tae’s odyssey begins with a pretty simple task. It’s quite a lot for one episode to pull off! But in its 22-minute runtime, “Walking Bet SAGA” does manage it. There’s also a parade of ridiculous antics that she gets into, a drip-feed for some information about Tae and a gentle push to get the central question I mentioned in the opening a-rolling. The result is that “Walking Bet SAGA” manages to pull some impressive multi-tasking as a showcase for Tae away from the rest of Franchouchou. (She’s voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi, best known as the title role in Sailor Moon.) She’s also a casting gag, on a meta level. The gag with this character is that the resurrection process didn’t entirely “take” properly with her.
She can’t speak and occasionally acts in a way that some would describe as “feral”. Frankly, she’s in the background most of the time. Tae is a character I’ve not much talked about in these recaps. However, he decides to tail Franchouchou’s “Number Zero” member Tae Yamada specifically.

The opening angle involves the journalist character Shinta Okoba, first introduced in season one, once again investigating Franchouchou. (Which, full disclosure, we didn’t cover here on GGA. But it’s one that stands in sharp contrast to last week’s. But we’ll get to that.ĭespite ostensibly putting forward the question of Franchouchou’s identity being discovered, “Walking Bet SAGA” is another character episode. It’d be hard to say that about an episode with a breakdancing chicken and a high-stakes boat race. That’s not to say that “Walking Bet SAGA” is too serious, though. So it’s a good sign that these things aren’t just being waved off. One of the few ways that Zombie Land Saga Revenge could conceivably “fail” is to simply never address this central question at all. “Walking Bet SAGA” doesn’t answer it, but it at least gives some indication that one is coming. What would the girls of Franchouchou do if the public ever found out they were zombies? It’s a question that’s hung over Zombie Land Saga Revenge usually only in implied form, since the start of the original series. This recap contains spoilers for the Zombie Land Saga Revenge episode “Walking Bet SAGA.”
