At first glance when the trailer dropped for Undead Unluck, I had initially written it off. It seemed unique though, and that stuck with me. 4 weeks into its airing, I saw good reception, so I gave it a shot. I can now say It was worthy of watching after having just completed the first season. First and foremost, it's a 24-episode season, no pauses. God bless David Production for directing this properly. The first season has proper story building and leaves the viewer with anticipation to the continuation of this story. The series has proper time to develop

The only word that seems to accurately describe what Undead Unluck is, is FUN. And if what the signs are indicating at, is observed carefully, not mindless fun either. Quite honestly, it was nigh impossible to take the eyes off screen for even a split second during the first episode. And it should be enough to suggest how good of an opening it was, as it keeps building upon that, one episode at a time.
Plot: The title is the plot, and you know it is. If still you're not convinced, read the synopsis, which more or less describes the first episode adequately. Though, it ... Jan 8, 2024
Step away,whiny otaku males , this shounen is for the girlies.
I usually dont write reviews to anime,despite being on this site since 09. But I feel like this anime deserves more positive reviews and many of the *cough* male *cough* reviewers just didnt get it. this anime is a BLAST. from the first episode to the last one,you WILL have fun. Its lewd,it's crass,it's morbid - but its done in such a charming way , nothing comes out distateful. it's also quite romantic , but not in a super annoying shoujo manner , which makes it even better. I would consider this anime a feel good anime [for adults,ofc] ... Dec 10, 2023
Unserious. Untypical. Unexpected.
Unserious “Ehhh!? She hadn’t even finished her monologue yet!?” “Fun” seems to be the most common word people are using for this anime, but perhaps it is that this anime doesn’t take itself too seriously. Whether it be Andy’s eternally-cheesy superhero grin, the over-the-top reality/world settings, or the rapidly evolving storyline – it doesn’t want to be taken too seriously. But that doesn’t mean it is unserious about everything it does. Untypical Perhaps one of this anime’s most surprising qualities is how it offers so many typical aspects of its genre and yet intentionally undelivers them: it is always leading from one ecchi-esc moment to the ...

What in the hell did I just watch?!
Is what one may be thinking the first time you start this show, as it's a wild ride from start to finish, and doesn't leave any time to breath with it's comedic timing, and just pure random nature, topped with an actual interesting and well developed storyline, that'll keep any kind of viewer engaged Story and characters: 9 A strong line up of characters will take a show far. Strong in the sense of not just who they are, and what they stand for, No matter what the plot is, a show can be carried so hard but a good ... Mar 23, 2024
Undead Unluck is a great battle shounen but it suffers from a beginning that displeased part of the public but mainly because it was distributed by Hulu.
In this story we follow Izumo Fuuko, a young woman who, upon meeting Andy, discovers the existence of people who can deny a rule in the world, she is Unlucky as she denies the luck of those she touches and Andy is the Undead as he cannot die in any way. With this information, both go on a journey to free themselves from their powers and end up encountering many challenges and hidden truths of this world. Starting with a ... Apr 26, 2024
It’s a pretty interesting story with a world of rules and negators who have powers (mostly unwillingly) to negate them. The plot by itself sounded fun but I don’t think he watched an anime earlier that brings together shounen and shojo elements so well.
Undead Unluck is fast paced and keeps you interested throughout. I love the concept, the characters and their development. It’s funny, romantic, action packed and has leads you actually feel for. Andy seems initially as a beefy guy with no feels, and Fuko the quintessential shounen FL - all boobs and no use. But interestingly, their characters unveil to be both ... Oct 20, 2023
The title is what caught my attention initially, I knew about this anime ever since they announced it and was vaguely looking forward to it because there's just something charming about the character designs for me.
The first episode was so good that it actually made me want to read the manga (which is rare for me personally, This alone is an achievement) but I still put it off thinking maybe I should wait. But behold as the second episode was over it instantly caught me in a frenzy and I just had to read the manga at that point and it did not disappoint even ... Dec 2, 2023
You wouldn't know it just from looking at its traditional shonen artstyle, but there's actually a lot going on under the surface of Undead Unluck. After watching the first few episodes, I was prepared to write it off as a "fun popcorn anime", but after sticking with it for just a little longer (as well as consuming some minor spoilers for later on), I can say with certainty that it's worth the watch, and that season 1 is only the tip of the iceberg for what's to come.
Undead Unluck probably has the most explosive and action-packed first few episodes I've seen all year. No ... Jan 21, 2024
A charming anime about a group of individuals aiming to save the world in order to live normal lives. It mimics the same theme as in Mob Psycho, where those gifted with special powers don't really consider themselves "gifted" but rather "cursed" because they know they can't live normal lives.
The animation was alright but the premise itself is very interesting. The power system introduced in the series, Negation, is an interesting idea, and one that allows for near limitless powers to be introduced in the future. It also introduces the idea of Artifacts -- items with special powers that can be used -- which ... Oct 24, 2023
I haven't done any reviews but this is going to be the series for my first one, this series isn't supposed to be serious its supposed to be FUN.. Its nice to see a original of a anime that has vibrant colors, and top notch animation. You have a good balance of humor and horror, its a good stand out anime for Winter 2023. Alot of anime thats been coming out, hasn't been able to grasp onto my attention for long as some ascepts get dragged out in between too many episodes, or just cancelled all together. Nice to see something refreshing and new.

Well, this is a damn masterpiece.
I've never seen a worldbuilding even close to be this unique and interesting. I don't even know where to start. The characters and their dynamics is literally everything. I usually dislike romantic subplot in shounen animes but this shit made me blush everytime our main couple interacted. Fuuko is adorable and Andy is a frickin' gentleman, periodt. I love the "polar opposites bring out the best in eachother" trope and it really works well in this setting. I especially love Andy's character because he sure has this "bad guy" vibe (which fits him perfectly) and still be a decent likable human ... Nov 24, 2023
Episode 7, and I must say, this is a good one. By far the most shounen, shounen anime we got in the past years. There is a power system, the attacks have names, and everything, and the characters are extreme too. I see potential for some good romance too. The animation is great, and the fighting is engaging. I gave this a chance while eating launch, and I didn't have much expectations despise hearing good stuff about the manga, and... well, it took the length of 7 episodes for me to eat my lunch. Totally worth it. In the new generation, dominated by Shounen like

This anime was delightful!
With a fresh perspective on self-acceptance, regardless of a person's (negator's) abilities or disadvantages, each character rises above their unchangeable circumstances to maintain a fragile balance between 'god-like' power and complete destruction. Falling under several genres of action, comedy, gore, fantasy and romance, there is something here for everyone. The characters throughout the series are unique, and take their time to properly develop complex relationships. Great animation, well choreographed fight scenes, fun OST and a fast passed (rather messy) storyline, that keeps viewers on their toes. Not to mention, the back-and-forth between character's dialogue is hilarious, their quips and awkward personalities are ... May 28, 2024
Very solid and weird over the too anime with a messy story and very interesting and complex characters in a very ricj and interesting post apocalyptic world full of danger and scary powers that can take your life in an instant of weakness and it has a very dark vive to it, specially the main duo, they are weird and very interesting to be honest, they are kinda scary and weird to look but i just love them, this is not a gem of an anime its just an enjoyable piece of medía with something mediocre and something very good animation not gonna lie i

Undead Unluck is one of the coolest action shonen that I’ve ever seen, featuring a fun cast of characters with a diverse and wide range of abilities. While it definitely plays into some traditional shonen tropes, it does more than enough to distinguish itself from its contemporaries and it’s a shame it didn’t garner more attention.
At the core of Undead Unluck is the relationship between Andy and Fuuko, two people who have sort have been loners for a long time due to their abilities. We see them come together and bond over mutual trauma and find comfort in one another. While it starts off ... Jun 28, 2024
The power system is unique and interesting. The mcs are lovable, and complements each other extremely well. The storytelling is fascinating and it progressively gets better. Definitely deserves a 2nd season, otherwise the world is UNFAIR!
It is a rare gem to find when most anime are gradually getting quite generic. It may not get as much fan following but it surely made a place in many viewers hearts. The story is simple but presented very well. The art style is industry standard, but suits the vibe of the story well. The anime surveys the genre it claims perfectly. Fans of action, comedy, adventure, will ... Mar 22, 2024
Cour 1:
With the hundreds of battle shonen anime airing this season, Undead Unluck stands out amongst the crowd. This is mainly due to the fact that the anime does a great job balancing out all of the crazy action typically found in this demographic of entertainment with some meaningful character work and plot progression. To be honest, that’s what makes Undead Unluck a great battle shonen series, as everyone, even some minor side characters, have a lot going for them and are given ample screentime to make us care about their struggles. However, the heart and soul of this series comes down to the two ... Aug 13, 2024
In short, definitely worth watching!
The power system in this anime is one of the best of the new-gen anime. It's easier to grasp (unlike some anime where you have to pretend that you know the power system). There were many moments where I was taken aback because of the twists. It exceeded whatever expectations I had and came out to be one of my favorite new-gen anime. The world-building is mind-blowing; it's a concept not much used, and if done perfectly, it could be one of the best. The characters are just awesome; you'll fall in love with them for sure. Each character has a unique ... Dec 22, 2023
the tale of the undead and the unluck, a premise I initially overlooked. One fateful night, I ventured into its world, compelled by curiosity.
The combination of the undead, an entity that defies death, and the unluck, a force of lethal misfortune, struck me as an intriguing blend. The sheer absurdity of this series, deliberately not taking itself seriously, became its charm. Remarkably, the characters resonated with me, and the mild touch of lewdness, rather than being jarring, found its place within the narrative. Those unfortunate enough to overlook this series shall indeed find joy within its whimsical realm! I would rate this 7 out of 10 |
