Sakurada Hiyori

When the infectious outbreak was first reported in Chiba, Japan, no one could believe it was real. But when Riri Mizukami (Hiyori Sakurada) meets one of the infected on the way home from her softball club, she knows this virus is going to change the world forever. 

Escaping to a public shelter with the rest of her club, Riri believes they’re all safe, but when it’s discovered that someone inside the shelter has been infected, she fears her life may be at its end. Lucky or not, Riri escapes the shelter and soon finds herself holed up at a shopping mall in Makuhari, but Riri isn’t the only survivor now calling the mall home. Forced to live with several men and women of all ages and occupations, Riri and her new “family” must work together to find ways to survive.

While the world outside the mall is a literal zombie hellscape, life inside the mall isn’t all that bad. With enough provisions to last everyone quite a while, an odd sense of comfort settles over the survivors, causing some to begin to wonder if they might find love. But can one find love amid a zombie apocalypse?

Adapted from the manga series “According to Six Survivors” by Kazune Yamamoto, “Six Survivors” is a 2022 Japanese romantic horror comedy drama directed by Ken Ninomiya.

Zombies on $ale

With the bright and sunny Mami Nanami (Shiori Akita) by his side, Kazuya Kinoshita (Ryusei Onishi) thought that his life as a twenty-something college student was nothing short of perfect. Utterly convinced he had the world’s best girlfriend, Kazuya lived in a blissful world full of sunshine and rainbows. At least he did until one day, without warning, Mami walked out of his life forever.

Left heartbroken and alone, Kazuya has no idea how he will ever find a way to carry on. Desperate to soothe the pain of his wounded heart, Kazuya turns to the vast resources of the internet for help. Finding an app that offers rental girlfriends for hire, Kazuya orders the services of Chizuru Mizuhara (Hiyori Sakurada), an unparalleled beauty whose cute demeanor quickly eases the pain in Kazuya’s heart. Unfortunately, the comfort he finds in Chizuru’s company is short-lived, as he allows his good opinion of her to be tainted by the online reviews of others.

Infuriated by Kazuya’s easily swayed opinion, Chizuru tries to stand up for herself but all her plans are waylaid by a sudden act of fate. Finding herself forced to play the part of Kazuya’s lover once more, Chizuru has no choice but to keep up the ruse. But with Kazuya’s heart still clearly yearning for another woman, how long can this imposter couple last?
