Undead Unluck Ep 24

one of the best shonen stories in recent memory

Comments

They did that with solo leveling (granted it’s a 12 episode anime and wasn’t entirely needed) but it’s the most disliked anime episode on crunchy roll now, the show is so good and people were mad they had to wait an extra week to get back to the main story. I doubt any studio looking at that is gonna think “that was good idea, let’s do that next time”

Jordan

Isn’t the person who made the manga…a boy 🤔 we established this when we went in the memories..why we keep calling him “she” 🤣

QuitaMa

love these 20+ episode animes now I'm hoping for Fire Force to return soon

RuTo-San

they come to that conclusion at the end of the discussion

Storm King

Been saying this for about 2 ish years but suddenly they're about the k dramas. Kimi ni Todoke is a classic.

Isaac

The boy made manga that shouko's mother read as a child, so he is old. The clone he made does not age which is why it looks young. The artifact did not affect his age, he was already older.

Revurus

Instead of dragging out the canon parts to reach this ending, they should have just thrown a whole recap episode or two in there instead. Then the canon episodes would be fine.

Shockzz1234

The pacing is really annoying as well considering the manga is fast paced. Like, it's literally MADE to be fast paced lol, but the anime slowed it down

Shockzz1234

And a 10/10 manga, the anime kinda screwed it with all the flashbacks and slower pacing (that goes directly against the pacing of the manga which is fast paced on purpose).

Shockzz1234

If you cannot design, engineer, and build a car, are you then unable to criticize anything about its aesthetics, efficiency, and performance? And if the answer is yes and you cant criticize things that you’re unable to make, doesn’t that also mean you cannot praise those same thinfs? Because either way you’re incapable and ignorant of that subject, so you should just have zero opinion one way or the other, right? Nah. Crazy comment.

Champion Bescos

My b I added that later wasn’t paying enough attention

Ranginald Vagel

10/10 power system 9/10 characters 9/10 story 10/10 world building (literal world building lmao) 6/10 pacing Really fun anime with one of the coolest power systems since Jojo’s and I love how the world and characters operate Overall: 8/10. Really enjoyed this one. Hoping for a quick season renewal

Charcoal

Next sheera and roshi duo show!

Dyastro

>Another is a cut line when Rip is saying why he won't join the Union; he says the fact that the rest of the gang didn't have Ark explained to them shows that Juiz is planning to keep it for herself He literally says that to them.... it wasnt cut

Jake Young

there is a season 2 they said more is coming about the anime in august

Riley Mayfield

Yeah.. the 2nd half of the season felt underwelming in eps but still very much enjoyed it!

Kevin Kovacs

We had the "normal" recaps just like in most of animes series whixh are fine to me but havinf another recap/flashback of soemthing that was like last week or 2 then that is just bad. I know it's not the studio's fault at all it's the publisher(s) mainly. I hope we just only get the normal recaps in season 2 then not many people can really complain about anything.

Kevin Kovacs

Nah... I LOVE Naruto/Naruto shippuden (big fan) but even I can't say it's 10/10 manga or story.

Kevin Kovacs

That's what I wanted to tell him because Roshi said Fuko's mom has been reading it her 20-30's not since a kid but it really doesn't matter all it matters that she is old...

Kevin Kovacs

Love to hear it!

Kevin Kovacs

Never liked the whole "If you can't make it you can't criticize it" argument. That's like saying I can't say a dish tastes bad unless I know how to cook, it's simply not how that works

Paulothy

Yeah even with all the production flaws, still loved this adaptation, they really nailed all the stuff they really needed to nail. Can't wait for everyone to experience the story going forward because it only gets bigger and better from here!

Tearonex

did you watch the video till the end? cause they(Roshi) literally figured that out

Kablamoo101

Wait where people confused on that part 😂

Fizzy

@DocGreen it most definitely wasn’t.

YungZeus

I swear it's already confirmed shaft is doing season 3

Rebel Gamester

So about real UNKNOWN (Akira Kuno) being OLD. You guys forgot that Akira has been writing Mangas since Fuko's Mom was a Kid, he is definitely OLD ASF. The Artifact didn't age him, he actually was very old!

ALIEN Pol

Naruto is NOT 10/10 as a story lol

fili0938

The G switch had the 3 of them so confused cause it was random but ended up being explained pretty decently

Tremaine

the directing of the anime is amazing its not the studios who choose how many episodes they animate, its the publishers and tv networks. recaps suck but filler is worse, and ending mid arc is even more terrible

sim

Some parts are just so bad i just skip them.

Berts Tv

Its a 7/10 anime

Berts Tv

THANK YOU! I knew i wasn’t the only one who was confused of way we were seeing recaps scenes of something we just seen in the last episode. I feel a lot of that time could’ve been spent on the more of the story because there is a lot also, we probably could’ve got it afterward where they explain some of the characters and their powers instead of the next episode spoiler stuff

Avan

Yeah David production really fumbled a lot of the pacing i hope they get better on season 2…if we get one

Avan

I always thought the writing was great, but the Anno stuff really pushed this to S tier writing for me.

Michael Blake

It honestly makes me glad that the people that critique shows like this cannot make shows themselves. I swear alot of them sound like the annoying studio heads they hate

Metweet .c

I didn't realise so many patrons were all of a sudden great directors, producers and writers from the look of these comments.

Metweet .c

I agree with that! Like a “the story so far”! That’s fair!

tiana britton

I would have vastly preferred them to just compile and air a full recap episode in order to solve the pacing issues. That way they don’t have to work extended recaps into each episode and people who want a full recap can watch it. People who don’t can skip it entirely. Everybody wins and the end result is the same. The actual episodes will have a better viewing experience. I hope we get S2 and that it’s better in that regard.

Colin

Despite the pacing issues, glad you guys love the story. It only gets better from here. Pls pls pls let there be a season 2.

Vianta Roa

A lot of y’all are doing a lot in the comments about the recaps and pacing. It didn’t happen enough to say that it could be a 12 episode season. It would have absolutely been rushed plus you need time to tell a story this detailed and intricate. & honestly as a manga reader this was probably the best place to end season 1. But also no anime I’ve seen has “perfect pacing” compared to the manga so with a recap here and there it doesn’t take away from the story. Similar to books turning into movies there will be changes that can’t really be avoided.

tiana britton

You guys should def check out Kimi ni Todoke, basically what the show is referencing with the From Me to you manga fuko likes.

Marsh

I actually agree with Freeofgreed. Winter is like 3 chapters, they could've done that and padded winter

mitch anderson

"First time?"

関口信玄

Which was a terrible decision. Winter would've been a better stopping point. And even if they really wanted to stop at Autumn there are better ways they could've padded the runtime.

Freeofgreed

Also take TMS Entertainment out of the picture. David Production does better work on their own (or at least mostly on their own). TMS was apparently/allegedly in charge of production and planning, while David Prod. just did the animation. Makes me think that TMS is responsible for the terrible blocking (and ofc the director obviously played a part).

関口信玄

Most of these anime especially season 1 have similar budgets it just comes down to time management and talent. This show could of easily been a 9 with better direction.

DocGreen

They was just trying to drag it so that they would end at this arc, which is clear now

Tyrese Marshall

They have been for a while idk when it’s coming out

Imari

Yeah the manga is great they def need to replace the director. You can't even blame the budget for all the recaps because there are shows with far less budget that don't rely on recaps nearly as much.

Freeofgreed

Roshi says this at the end.

Freeofgreed

I'm glad they figured out Anno was just actually old at the end lol.

mitch anderson

The story of this show is so god damn good, but the directing of it just made something feel off the entire season. Still very much enjoyed it overall!

Thiivi

Solid 8 for me. Especially considering this is just the beginning. Hopefully whoever the director is for next season knows exactly when to end so we don't have to go through early 2000s shonen level recaps. But this definitely the best shonen I've seen in while besides chainsawman. Jjk mha feel generic by comparison

DocGreen

The animation was extremely consistent? What are you talking about?

DocGreen

In Undead Unluck’s universe if you’re a Negator your suffering literally is God’s plan for you. I’d want to kill God too

Ranginald Vagel

I really hate those awkward “cut to black” transitions. Definitely need a new director or studio. David need to do Fire Force S3 now

YungZeus

I'm guessing that we get a season 2 announcement on August 1st. They are teasing an announcement that day and are specifically calling it an "anime announcement" or at least that's the wording I've seen used.

SpiritOfTheHero

Director needs to be replaced so season 2 can be fire. I don’t think it’s just the egregious recaps where the time could have been used to make the story clearer, it’s very frequent little details that aren’t technically errors but aren’t the best either. Just a small example that’s indicative of the adaptation as a whole, Autumn telling Andy he would make a good bookmark happens on the panel where she closes the book on Andy. The anime times it perfectly so that the line doesn’t line up with the action so it loses all of its impact. A lot of little poor decisions like that were why I think this adaptation is shaky, but the amazing lore and world that was built shines through still. By the way, the artifact that was used on Rip by Feng and Anno was explained properly in volume extras. It’s called Life is Strange. If you age someone up you age 10x that but if you age someone down you lose that many years x10. If you haven’t lived that long or won’t live long enough using it will kill you instantly by aging you to dust or making you disappear. This is from volume extras on the volume this season ends on so no spoilers.

Ranginald Vagel

Show is good. But anime exuetion is subpar

Kingslord

The artifact didnt age him, Akira is just old. Without going into spoilers from other stuff and the specifics clues. Akira started To you, From me before andy was caught by the union. Andy was caught 50 year ago, meaning Akira is about 50-60 years old.

Cleaner

Damn, Ruedus and Tanya would look at this world and be like: "So, you got a vendetta against God?"

DevilMayCarter

this adaption was a solid 7, maybe a 6.5, but trust me the manga is a straight 9/10 easy. Hopefully season 2 sees proper pacing and more consistent animation.

Tyrese Marshall

UU is enjoyable but nothing more. 6/10

zILovePelmeni _

This episode had me in tears. Like I was legitimately crying. Anno Un is the goat! I really hope Undead Unluck gets a season 2!

Earphone Jack

Honestly it's a bit confusing about the age changing artifact, but it's something that's kind of made more clear later and isn't crazy important. (So don't worry, you didn't miss anything.) Thanks for the reaction!

st

Been reading the manga and damn it gets so so good it’s incredible

TChang23

Fun fact the name of the time control artifact is life is strange knowing the writer is a big gamer it was probably in reference to the first game.

ThatOneGuy

Awesome story Awful directing

Anorak

Amazing story, I hope the directing improves if we get a season 2

mitch anderson

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hasnain Khan

This is ending 2 fuck me 😢

Kisuke01

Damn God is a troll. Imagine you're doing your job and you accidentally kill your patient because you now unlock some crazy b******* power
