Default shell in Gnome

I installed Gnome desktop on top of KDE

sudo pacman -S gnome
sudo pacman -S gnome-extra
systemctl enable gdm.service --force
sudo pacman -S manjaro-gnome-assets manjaro-gdm-theme manjaro-settings-manager

and things are pretty much working.
But in GNOME Terminal, the shell is bash. I expected it to be zsh with Manjaro customizations. What to do?
In Tweaks/Appearance there is a warning sign by Shell and the dropdown menu is blank.
(I did not make a new user, I am still using the same user as I did on KDE)

A mistake you will regret later. Expect to encounter at least this issue each time you switch between DEs

For zsh, see this:
