Undead Unluck features a bizarre protagonist that makes it stand out among other shonens. No, it’s not because he is an undead with super-quick regenerative powers; it’s because Andy is an unforgivable pervert.
His partner in crime, Fuuko, gets harassed multiple times in every chapter, but she still sticks with him because he is the only person who will not die due to her powers. It honestly intrigues me to see how the anime will adapt his ecchi moments.
Of course, it also comes with excellent action scenes, timely gag elements, and more. So check out all the details for this upcoming action-comedy anime.
Undead Unluck Plot
Fuuko Izumo is an extremely unlucky person to the point where the people who touch her can die. After years of solitude, she decides to kill herself but suddenly encounters a guy who cannot die and regenerates very quickly. The undead man, Andy, experiments by touching her and realizes her unluck might be the key to his death.
However, they are soon captured by Union, an organization that polices Negators, people with mysterious powers. Fuuko and Andy use their respective abilities to break free, but soon, the whole group is after them.
Will Andy be able to return Fuuko’s will to live while simultaneously trying to die and prevent the antagonists from getting their hands upon her?

So far, the Undead Unluck anime has received three trailers.
