The narrative picks up after the events of the first season, with Franchouchou striving to revive Saga's economy and popularity through their performances, while also grappling with their undead identities.
The season delves deeper into the challenges faced by the group as they attempt to gain wider recognition. Their manager, Kōtarō Tatsumi, continues to guide them with his eccentric and often harsh methods, pushing the girls to overcome both external obstacles and internal conflicts. The group faces setbacks, including public scrutiny, financial struggles, and the constant threat of their zombie nature being exposed.

Lily Hoshikawa, a young transgender girl, continues to embrace her identity and inspire others. Tae Yamada, the enigmatic and feral member of the group, remains a source of comedic relief while occasionally revealing glimpses of her humanity.
The season also introduces new characters and expands on the lore of the series. The mysterious "Iron Frill," a rival idol group, becomes a significant presence, challenging Franchouchou and pushing them to improve. Additionally, the origins of Kōtarō Tatsumi and his connection to the zombies are hinted at, adding layers to the overarching mystery of the series.
