I once heard someone refer to Zombieland Saga as the gateway drug into idol anime. If you ended up enjoying the cute girls singing and dancing more than you thought you would, watch Love Live!  

Both features a group of aspiring girls who wants to be an idol. Both muse and Franchouchou do have a similar goal. Both want to revive a dying place and want to be famous. Both anime does show the struggles of being an idol, being a zombie or not. With many emotional moments which allow the characters to grow.  

idol trope being very well portrayed in both using similar yet amazingly different formats 

Both anime's are mainly about idols. Of course they both feature cute girls! 

Both are music anime that have a twist: one has zombie idols, the other has a historical Chinese tactican managing a singer. Although they focus on different types of music, they share a goal of becoming popular and go through trials and tribulations to achieve said goal. Both managers of the idol group and singer are eccentric so be prepared for some crazy ideas from both parties.  

-Music -Comedy -Anachronism -Cute girls :) 

Both of these anime go above and beyond with the plot and characters. On paper it sounds weird but that's what makes them stand out and be so good. And the music has been great. 

Both anime are not your traditional idol show. Concept-wise, both anime sounds weird, however, it managed to mash very well and make both anime a masterpiece. Both anime also features an idol manager who uses unusual ways to help an idol rise to stardom. MCs of both anime, Sakura and Eiko have the same VA (Hondo, Kaede).  

This recommendation might seem strange aside from the whole singing part... but I couldn't stop thinking back to Zombieland Saga as I was watching Ya Boy Kongming! It's more historical (obvs), but the vibes are pretty darn similar. Both extremely funny and strangely heartwarming TV shows with that'll make you giggle and cheer. 

Zombies and moe girls, Gakkougurashi is more serious than Zombieland Saga 

Cute girls do cute apocalypse things!  

The characters in these series are just *muah* top-notch. Every single one of them is presented properly in the most appealing way. Having their own and separate character arcs while simultaneously establishing its plot and premise. If you're looking for a character-driven story that can also maintain its plot-driven aspects, then these shows are for you. 

Both anime features zombies and girls. Both do feature emotional moments but School-live is a much more emotional/darker anime compared to Zombieland.  

Both series try to mix cute girls and zombies, but the girls don't really seem too bothered by the zombie aspect since they are focused on something else.  

All main characters already dead from beginning, decent comedy and music 

Both contain already dead characters that show their backstories through the show and both of them balance comedy and drama well 

Two series that might make you question what you are watching after the first few episodes but eventually pull you in and you just go along with it. Both of these anime focus on groups of teenagers that are already dead. Additionally to that there are three main reasons these two series give a somewhat similar feel: 1. The comedy of the two shows is similar at the times. It is often related to the fact that characters cannot die because they are already dead. Both also include situations that might seem ridiculous and over the top but end up being very fun to watch. 2. Music has a role in both of these anime to some degree. In Zombieland Saga the main characters are an idol group while some characters in Angel Beats are part of a band. However the former puts much more focus on this than the latter. 3. Tragic backstories of characters are included. Angel Beats puts more focus on this aspect than Zombieland Saga but both of them get quite emotional.  read more 

Both animes give characters that have died another shot at achieving their dreams, they also have a main character where at first they don't remember anything before they died but as the series progresses, a character helps them regain them. 

Both have insteresting characters, both have a manager/producer that you're probably gonna love, they are pretty different but they are worth to watch if you're not usually like idol animes 

-Both are idol animes. -There's a protagonist but both series focus on the group rather than this character. -The characters in both series wanna reach success in the idol world. -Both have good music moments, and epic moments as well. 

Both are idol animes are about the groups trying to reach a spot in the oversaturated music industry, the characters have mature and kinda dark backstories, the characters have to learn how to teamwork. I think if you didn't prove an idol anime before this two may be your best choice to trying to watch this genre. 

Idol animes that aren't afraid to break the formula of being an anime idol. Both series are about the main group making their step in the idol world and the high and lows about it. The series don't focus only on their center, they give the entire cast a different development and background, which are really good. Both mix the comedy and tragedy in a good way. 

Both take very common premises (idols, cafe maids) and just go nuts with it. Absurd, satirical. Both also have a complete idiot as the manager. 

Who would've thought that a show with zombie idols and another with violent maids would bring endearing character moments and the batshit crazy!? They both gave me similar vibes in the best way possible! 

Bait-and-switch dark comedy with cute girls in balls-to-the-wall crazy situations, overall has a similar feel. 

Both shows act as parodies to the idol genre, and both consist of very over the top comedy  

Mahou Shoujo Ore and Zombieland Saga are anime that poke fun at and parody the idol genre, albeit it different ways.

Believe it or not, the similarity between these shows has almost nothing to do with their zombie aspect. Rather, both shows feature the same balance between a compelling story, strong character development, and comedy gold. It is a rare thing for a show to both have the ability to make you laugh your head off and pull at your heartstrings. 

Both titles poses the quality of having a distinctive introduction and premise, only to trick the viewer into viewing an idol show. 

The two may not seem alike as much but having a time to invest to it will give a chance to make it clear. The characters are intriguing, all of them have a sense of originality and they don't seem boring nor generic, rather they are presented clearly in unique fashion. Having the same premise that leads to the same promise. If you GENUINELY liked Zombieland Saga then chances are you'll also like 22/7, and vice versa. 

They both about Saga... if your into that. 

Both are about zombie-girls, how they confront tragedy and death and continue to self-actualize, even in "death".  

Comedic series about idols with something different about them. In Miss Monochrome's case, the titular character is an android. In Zombie Land Saga, the aspiring idols are zombies. Both situations make for hilarious scenes in the respective shows. Miss Monochrome has shorter episodes and arguably focuses more on comedy. Zombie Land Saga's episodes are standard length and arguably have more tension, but still retain comedic value. If you're looking for an idol series that is a bit different, either (or both) of these two series might be right up your alley.  

If you enjoy the over-the-top characters and tone of Zombieland Saga, you'll probably really like Steins;Gate. If you even slightly like the protagonist of Zombieland Saga, you will grow to adore Okabe Rintarou. It's just an all-around good anime for when you want to laugh, cry, cry a lot, or repeat stupid phrases over and over until your friends beg you to stop.  

Both idol groups were created to save a place (For Zombieland is Saga Prefecture, for Cheer Fruits is a local hall). With both groups created their own songs and dance. During the anime, both groups face significant challenges and drama. You will be able to observe the members of both groups grow closer as time goes by.  

Other than being musical groups there isn't a lot similar. But if not for the zombie girls I probably would not have given Bocchi the Rock a view. Zombieland is hardly high art, but it certainly is entertaining and I'd recommend both seasons.
