I curse Hulu for dooming Undead Unluck to sub-par popularity because I haven’t enjoyed a shounen action anime as much as I did this one in over a decade.
At first I liked that it was weird and bloody in a fun way. Then I liked that it constantly outdid its ridiculous action. And before I knew it, I was so deeply invested in the characters that I was coming back each week excited to see more.

Well, Undead Unluck is a shounen manga of a different breed and a faster pace. The thing most manga fans criticize the anime for was the slower pacing and the show’s passion for recapping events.
Undead Unluck actually changed very little from the plot, but it did add a few moments in that were not in the manga and removed a few small inconsequential moments. You don’t need to read the Undead Unluck manga from the beginning unless you want to, but do prepare yourself for a series that moves super fast.
Is The Undead Unluck Manga Over?

They did not say if it was a recap, but I hope it is not a recap!
