With how the latest episode proceeded, Undead Unluck episode #20 has all the makings of a great continuation of what’s likely the final arc of the first season. There’s plenty of mystery and intrigue being set up for episode #20, and that makes the anticipation for its release all the higher.

What Happened In Undead Unluck Episode 19?
Juiz revealed important information leading into the end of season 1
In Undead Unluck episode #19, “Undead + Unluck“, Juiz revealed that many of the story arcs in To You, From Me match the events the Union has gone through, implying that it was written with the prophetic artifact, G-Liner. As such, Juiz wanted Fuuko and Andy to find the original manuscript to confirm that and find the author, Anno Un, and figure out why some details had seemingly been left out. With the manuscript being at the manga’s publishing company, Shueisha, there was only one way to get to it: Fuuko had to write an original manga good enough for publication.
Undead Unluck: Every Under Negator & Their Abilities Explained
Under is the main group of Negators opposing the Union in Undead Unluck, and this is a breakdown of all of their powers and abilities in the series.
With help from Andy and the Union, Fuuko created the one-shot Undead + Unluck; in a bit of meta humor, Fuuko’s story is the same one-shot that Undead Unluck was adapted from. At Shueisha, Fuuko impressed an editor enough to get permission to look at To You, From Me‘s manuscript, and the document being in Japanese confirmed that it was unaffected by the unification of language and thus truly was prophetic. Immediately after that, Anno Un called Shueisha, and Fuuko managed to convince him to meet her in Canada to discuss manga, which is the note episode #19 ended on.
Undead Unluck’s Anime Ruined One Of Fuuko’s Biggest Moments
Fuuko’s character growth is stilted in the adaptation
While Undead Unluck episode #19 was decent enough continuation of the series, it made an odd change to one of Fuuko’s big moments from the manga. In the manga, Fuuko pulled a gun on the editor to talk to Anno Un, which was a good way of showing how assertive Fuuko had grown to be, but in the anime, Fuuko had Andy intimidate her. The anime might not have wanted to have someone pull out a gun in a workplace setting, but that censorship still robbed Fuuko of character development, so it would be great if future episodes didn’t make similar changes.
Be sure to watch Undead Unluck episode #20 when it releases on February 23.
