The second season of Is This a Zombie?, titled Is This a Zombie? of the Dead, has arrived on Crunchyroll and Hulu, complete with English dub and subtitle options. This 10-episode season continues the outlandish adventures of Ayumu Aikawa, a high school student who dies and is resurrected as a zombie by a necromancer, only to find himself forced to cross-dress as a magical girl to fight off magical threats.
Produced by Studio Deen, the series leans heavily into its surreal premise, blending action, ecchi comedy, and harem elements. Is This a Zombie? of the Dead maintains the chaotic energy and bizarre humor that defined its predecessor, featuring a cast of eccentric magical girls and supernatural beings. The show holds a 7.47 rating on MyAnimeList from over 224,000 voters.
This season ramps up the absurdity, throwing Ayumu into increasingly ridiculous situations as he juggles his zombie-magical girl duties with his everyday life. The narrative explores themes of identity and responsibility through a lens of pure comedic mayhem, often featuring over-the-top action sequences and fanservice.
As a complete 10-episode run, Is This a Zombie? of the Dead offers a bingeable experience for fans of its unique brand of urban fantasy comedy. The series is an adaptation of Shinichi Kimura's light novel series, which also spawned OVAs and further manga adaptations, cementing its place in the pantheon of eccentric harem comedies.
