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, :filez:

been reading this one for a while, really enjoying where the manga is at. Last episode looked like it had some production issues but otherwise David's done a great adaptation

I heard from friends that the early manga chapters were a little rough but the anime so far has been incredible

and yeah, they must have spent too much money that week, all the repeat cuts and stuff. still managed to make me cry though!

Undead Unluck crazy good. If not for the indomitable spirit of humanity, that ability seems loving busted as hell. loving the style they're pulling off on here.

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?

I assume that her Unjustice just causes infighting. When Andy and Fuko first arrived, Andy was going to fight Tatiana, but Unjustice happened and they changed their aims to Fuko and Billy respectively. Also who knows! Gena asking "What are those?" to Fuko's painting of the moon having stars because there were no stars... and Victor asking Shen what day of the week and Shen being confused at it suggests that there's a fuckin... UMA Day or something as well. At the very least, the Earth, the Sun and the Moon were there... Maybe the first UMA was UMA Christianity God
This show is so good I am intrigued and invested.

The solar system was there before UMA Galaxy. 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.

a friend pointed out in Gena's episodes, theres some space debris floating around so it might be that

With the introduction of Galaxy, they also mentioned with it came the culture of myths dealing with planets and days of the week now as well

It's funny that the gregorian calendar was still around but not Saturday

the audacity of them to do a 5 second star wars intro bit aside, this was a REALLY good episode. my friends told me they replaced fuuko holding a gun with Andy, but given that the kyoani arsonist was just sentenced to death i think it can slide.

Yeah, the recaps were rough, but a solid run aside from that. I really hope they get a season 2, this is one of those series that I think gets better as it goes. Fuuko is a fun protagonist now that she is a little more confident in herself.

Fuuko with a gun
