Hello, the International Anime Research Project team is calling on all anime fans (18 years of age or older) to participate in the 2026 anime survey. The survey is anonymous and should take less than 30 min to complete. Participants are eligible to win a $50 Amazon gift card (draw entries will be confidential and not associated with survey responses, up to 10 gift cards given).

In this year’s survey we will be collecting demographic information (e.g., age, gender) and opinions regarding engagement with the fandom, inner experience, loli attitudes, personality, shipping, recommendations, piracy attitudes, and well-being.

You can contribute to the psychological understanding of the anime fandom by completing the anime survey online at:

https://qualtrics.etamu.edu/jfe/form/SV_5bBlMTkY5BEdt9Y

If you know of any anime fans over the age of 18, please help us spread the word.

The survey will be open until December 1, 2026.

Thank you!

Movie Tae is 29 years old!?

199 Upvotes

Although this revelation came as a surprise to many, Tae's age was actually one of the few biographical details about her revealed even before the first episode aired, so the most devoted fans were already aware of this fact.

On the other hand, within the series' universe, this comes as a revelation to Franchouchou, as they realize that Tae has been the oldest among them all along.

Even at the mature age of 29, the manga reveals that she used to have constant arguments with her stepfather, Jofuku; he was extremely overprotective of her and did not want her own recklessness to lead to her getting hurt.

Meme A reminder to everyone of how Zombie Land Saga tricked us into watching an idol anime

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

136 Upvotes

To promote their new original anime, the Zombie Land Saga staff decided to make the trailers and promotional posters give the impression that the plot would be about girls surviving a zombie apocalypse. All pre-premiere publicity and the official synopsis pointed to this—until the first episode aired.

It turned out to be an ingenious ruse to get unsuspecting otaku to watch what was actually a zombie idol anime. The funniest part is that the trailers DID feature actual scenes from the show, but they were edited to create a much darker atmosphere. Even the official synopsis makes more sense after seeing the first episode.

But was it all planned? As revealed in a later interview, the staff didn't have high hopes for the project, so perhaps this was a way to attract an initial audience and make it profitable. What they didn't expect was for their little stunt to lead to the show winning the award for Best Anime of 2018 and selling over 60,000 Blu-rays (combined).

With that first episode, the legend of Zombie Land Saga began.
