The anime is an adaptation of the Shogakukan-published manga written by Haro Aso and drawn by Koutaro Takata. Viz Media describes the manga as:
In a trash-filled apartment, 24-year-old Akira Tendo watches a zombie movie with lifeless, envious eyes. After spending three hard years at an exploitative corporation in Japan, his spirit is broken. He can’t even muster the courage to confess his feelings to his beautiful co-worker Ohtori. Then one morning, he stumbles upon his landlord eating lunch—which happens to be another tenant! The whole city’s swarming with zombies, and even though he’s running for his life, Akira has never felt more alive!
The Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead manga began in 2018 and has 13 tankoubon volumes as of February 2023. It is serialized in Monthly Sunday GX.
