Medieval fantasy anime is wildly popular due to isekai, but sometimes you get a more traditional fantasy anime experience that is really good, but also gets overlooked because it doesn’t have the flash of an isekai action anime.
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer is that – sadly. It was uniquely interesting to watch him evolve as an undead and also has pretty grounded adventures. However, it isn’t a series that is carried by big bold action or outrageous harems, so it didn’t hold the attention of some.

What to Expect From The Unwanted Undead Adventurer Source Material Compared to The Anime?
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer was a good, but underrated anime, but its source material is better. The light novel is detail-dense, albeit a bit of a slog to read. However, the manga captures the details of the light novel and has fantastic art as well.
While you don’t necessarily need to read The Unwanted Undead Adventurer from the beginning since it didn’t skip any core plot, if you did want to read it from the beginning for the world-building and extra details, I really do recommend the manga over the light novel.
Will There Be A The Unwanted Undead Adventurer Season 2?
Unfortunately, there has been no official announcement of an The Unwanted Undead Adventurer Season 2 anime.
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer is a bit of a low-key series, but a good one for those who don’t need flash and sizzle to keep their attention. However, “low-key” often does not translate to profitable, which means a second season is probably a bit unlikely.
