  quote:All Fuuko wants is a passionate romance like the one in her favorite shoujo manga. Unfortunately, her Unluck ability makes that impossible. But just as Fuuko hits rock bottom, Andy sweeps her off her feet—literally! Now she's become Andy's unwilling test subject as he works to find a way to trigger a stroke of Unluck big enough to kill him for good. However, when the pair discovers a secret organization is hunting them, it puts Andy's burial plans on hold. A girl, cursed with "Unluck", attempts to take her own life, when she meets a man cursed with "Undead". This is the story about the search for the greatest death ever. An anime adaptation of the 2020 manga of the same name by Yoshifumi Tozuka, UNDEAD UNLUCK is produced by David Pro (you know, JoJo) and directed by ex-SHAFT freelancer Yuuki Yase (Hidamari Sketch x Honeycomb), resulting in a hilarious mix of gory blood-pumping action scenes and breathtaking cinematography (a.k.a. Shaft head tilts). FUUKO IZUMO, AKA "UNLUCK" Voiced by: Moe Kahara (Tomoe Inui - Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki)  A young woman who is ready to face death as she can no longer take the misfortune she puts upon the ones closest to her. Living her entire life fearful of touching anyone, even the smallest brush can bring about her UNLUCK. ??? - Nicknamed: ANDY, AKA "UNDEAD" Voiced by: Yuichi Nakamura (Satoru Gojou - Jujutsu Kaisen)  A man who has lived for so long that he has even forgotten his own name, who happens upon Fuuko at the edge of a bridge. He is content to watch her throw herself off the edge until he hears how her Unluck causes people to die. It just so happens that this man is cursed with UNDEAD and really wants to die.

For what its worth, this is currently in its 7th (about to be 8th) week of airing, with 24 total episodes scheduled. Please be mindful of spoilers for those who are seeing this for the first time and deciding to try it out (also no manga spoilers this is anime only, buddy) Also this is available on HULU and ... not anywhere else as far as I'm aware, which is probably why no-one has made a thread for it up until now. or yknow,

I love the Ennio Morricone turn the music does with the chorus towards the end of episode 8. Incredibly thematic with the setting they're in.

For anyone thinking about getting Hulu for this, they have a cyber Monday deal for 12 months for 99 cents a month for the ad supported tier. I got about 3 minutes of ads per episode, so not too bad.

Might have been a little too dark, otherwise good episode and the added scenes are making this a solid adaptation.

Where were the meteors coming from if there was no galaxy before? And wasnt there the sun in the past? Wouldnt that be part of the galaxy? So the power of galaxy is the threat of aliens, and im assuming that threat is countered by justice's negation. Im assuming her using her power against Victor wouldnt have worked since his idea of justice wasnt as bad as the aliens?

The meteors were probably pulled from the asteroid belt or something. But there wasn't anything past the solar system, just endless void. Galaxy fills in the rest of the universe with stuff.

As I understand it, UnJustice is very similar to Shen's power in how it works, except it makes you do the opposite of what your innermost beliefs or ideals are. Tatiana and Andy really wanted to protect a particular person, so when she used it on them they were about to attack those people instead. So using it on Victor may not have actually done anything helpful.

I'm really liking this show. The action has been quite good, especially in the last couple episodes, and there's an emotional core to the side characters that I wasn't expecting. I hope it does well because I'd love to get another season.

Was thinking it the whole time so I'm glad the show just came out and called the UMA's "cryptids." The "next time on" segments are some of my favorite parts of some anime, following week to week, and Undead Unluck does em real good.
