Chapter 4

Chapter 4 (第4章, Dai 4-shō) is the fourth chapter of the Zombie Land Saga manga.

Synopsis
The girls have regained their senses, and Kotaro announces that they will be making their official debut at the annual Saga Castle performance.

In the past, Kotaro is seen in a library in Takeo and mentions that he must prepare for when the girls wake up. So, he goes to the Drive-in Tori restaurant.

Present
The girls have now (mostly) regained their consciences, and gather underground from the mansion, where Kotaro comes to greet all the girls now that they have regained their senses.

To begin their journey as idols, he first informs them that they are zombies and instructs them to never be seen by people in their zombie appearance, as they would be stereotypically treated as monsters seen in many zombie horror media. Above all, he enthusiastically trusts the girls who will become idols to save Saga's decline.

April
We flash back in time, exactly a few days before the girls woke up. Kotaro is in Takeo's library and is concerned about how to generate demand for them in order for the group to be successful. After overhearing a casual conversation between mother and daughter, he decides to go to Drive-in Tori for lunch and business.
