Chapter 3: Aim for the Trifecta! Shining Disco Ball! (目指せ３高！輝けミラーボール！, Mezase sankō! Kagayake mirābōru!) is the third chapter of the spin-off manga series of Zombie Land Saga, titled “Zombie Land Saga Side Story: The First Zombie”.
== Synopsis ==
A Sagako appears on the Saga's disk! Can the Sagako busters stop her at her own party?!
== Plot ==
One night at the Maryina club, strange music interrupts out of the blue and upsets the people inside the club, causing it to temporarily close.
The next morning, Anna informs the group about the incident and how they have to stop the cursed song, so the club can reopen again. Eikichi asks Tae why they were contacted on commission, and Tae replies that they are usually called for this kind of problem in Saga. Eikichi is shocked as he realizes that the supernatural sightings in Saga were all Sagako's doing, and the prefecture's population was already connected to the supernatural.

Jofuku interrupts the conversation and surprises Eikichi, who realizes that it was not a VHS tape. Jofuku confirms what the group said and tells him that thanks to the power of Eikichi's Misogi, they will be able to seal all the Sagakos of Saga and revive Yuko. At the club, Anna is welcomed as a VIP member because of her part-time jobs. Before continuing with their conversation, a cursed song attacks and causes the girls to go crazy and attack each other, losing the battle before even starting it.
At the mansion, Tae discovers that Sagako was talking about “Triple A” and searching for a man who meets these requirements. Since they don't know of any man who meets the requirements, they decide to use Eikichi to fulfill them and defeat Sagako. Hanako manages to make Eikichi grow half an inch with her Del Height, Tae helps him with his apprenticeship using a tape with her voice; Anna helps him look and act like someone with a high income in Saga, taking him to the club where she works part-time and making that serves customers.

Days later they arrive at the cursed club where Eikichi introduces himself as a new man; now he is 1.80 cm, “smart” and high income. Sagako appears, showing her physical form, and Eikichi tries to “win” her. Sagako, however, realizes that he is a faker and attacks the group. The girls were prepared and put on headphones with Tae's voice to avoid hearing the cursed music. Eikichi also had an ace up his sleeve: a baseball bat hidden inside a bouquet of flowers. As Hanako's Del Height made him taller and, consequently, flexible, he manages to contain the Sagako and surprises the group with an onion Sour that he himself prepared. The Sagako is weakened, and the rest join Eikichi as the Sagako frees them. With a joint toast, they manage to seal the Sagako once and for all.
Tae feels proud of Eikichi, and even blushes. In the van, Eikichi jokes about being Saga's perfect man, but he is beaten by Tae inside the truck for being a conceit.

* The club's Sagako mentions the “three highs” (trifecta) that an ideal man should have in Japan: tall height, high intelligence, and high income.
* Jofuku can see and talk to the group through the television and claims to be aware of what they are doing.
* The people of Saga are aware of supernatural activity in the prefecture. This would explain why the elders are more familiar with the zombies from the anime and don't freak out when they see them in the second episode.
