While walking through the graveyard to pay visit to his deceased grandfather, Soran is assaulted by zombies until a mysterious girl wielding a knife appears and leads him to a confrontation with the zombies. After successfully fending off the zombies and further encounters with the knife wielding girl known as Fu Hōhō, Soran's life begins to change as he learns that the martial arts technique taught to him by his grandfather, known as Kitaigen, is a technique being sought after by many martial arts groups with ulterior motives. The story follows Soran's attempt to find out his grandfather's real history and his supposed connection with Fu Hōhō.

"Chō Ya no Himitsu?" (張家の秘密?)		July 9, 2016 (2016-07-09)
After the grave of Chou Shakurin is violated, a girl named Houhou appears claiming to be the granddaughter. Meanwhile, Chou's grandson, Soran, arrives from the college and is informed about the violation and about his alleged sister. At night, Soran finds Houhou digging up a grave, but is knocked out by her. When he wakes up, she is killing zombies and denies being his sister. She eventually abandons him among the zombies and meets her partner, Jo San; they see a lightning and return to see if Soran is well. They find the zombies electrocuted but not Soran. In the next day, Houhou goes to the same college Soran attends and meets him. In a brief sequence, a pair is shown interested in Chou Shakurin's corpse, as Houhou and Jo San are also revealed to be.
2"Master and Servant"
"Shujin to Geboku" (主人と下僕)		July 16, 2016 (2016-07-16)
After a class, Houhou defies Soran to show his powers by attacking him. Soran is reluctant because his grandfather said he should avoid using it, and his father, Yotoku, beat him every time he used it. Soran realizes Houhou is one of the "outsiders" his grandfather allowed him to use his powers against. However, he is defeated by Houhou, who says he will be a servant to her from now on. Meanwhile, the zombie master who took Shakurin's corpse delivers it to the young boy-like Ro Ryou and the beautiful Natsuka. As Shakurin's body is of no use, Ro Ryou does not allow the zombie master to join the organization but promises to do so if they capture Shakurin's grandson.
3"Lie"
"Uso" (嘘)		July 23, 2016 (2016-07-23)
Soran disobeys Houhou's order to meet her as he receives a date invitation from a girl. After a dinner they go to her apartment, where she blocks Soran's powers and reveals to be the zombie master who dug Shakurin's grave. She brings Soran to Ro Ryou and Natsuka and is accepted as a Zensei member. When Ro Ryou is trying to use his power to get information, Houhou and Jo San arrives.
4"Chaos"
"Konton" (混沌)		July 30, 2016 (2016-07-30)
During the clash, Soran remembers his grandfather said that after bad things happen, good things happen too. However, he does not observe it even when Houhou and Jo San rescue him. As reinforcement arrives, Natsuka departs on a motorcycle, and Ro Ryou and the zombie master, Kenken, go away on a car. In a forest, Ro Ryou abandons Kenken, who is the only of the three to be captured. In the following day, Houhou brings Soran to meet the place where she and Jo San work—an express delivery system.
