"In a World Full of Zombies, I'm the Only One Who Doesn't Get Attacked" Anime Officially Rescheduled to January 2027 — New Visual & Teaser PV Revealed
The upcoming TV anime based on the popular light novel In a World Full of Zombies, I'm the Only One Who Doesn't Get Attacked — commonly known by its short title Zon-Ore — now has a new premiere window. The production committee has officially confirmed that the series has been pushed to a January 2027 broadcast slot. To mark the announcement, the team has dropped a fresh teaser visual along with the first teaser promotional video, giving fans an early look at the animation and overall visual tone.
The light novel, authored by Rokuro Uraji (裏地ろくろ) and published by Frontier Works, has built a dedicated following for its darkly comedic twist on the zombie survival genre — and this anime adaptation has been generating significant buzz since it was first announced.
🎬 Teaser PV — Watch the First Look
The newly released teaser PV showcases the post-apocalyptic atmosphere of the series, highlighting the distinctive animation work by Acca effe × FRONTIER ENGINE. The video offers a glimpse of protagonist Yusuke Takemura navigating a zombie-infested world entirely unscathed — hinting at the unsettling yet compelling premise at the heart of the story.

📖 Story Synopsis
Takemura, an antisocial former office worker, has his life changed in an instant when the world suddenly becomes infested with zombies. Somehow, he's the only one that doesn't get attacked by them. "Helping others? Forget it. I'm going to live in this world freely." In this apocalyptic world, Takemura has gained immense power. Living while hiding the fact that zombies won't attack him — is he a hero, or something else entirely...?
What sets Zon-Ore apart from other entries in the zombie genre is its morally grey protagonist. Rather than rallying to save humanity, Takemura deliberately conceals his immunity and chooses a self-serving existence. This creates a uniquely cynical lens through which to explore a world in collapse — raising questions about heroism, selfishness, and what it really means to survive. It's a survival story with an edge, and the anime looks set to capture that ambiguity in full.
