Yoshifumi Tozuku’s original manga garnered newfound popularity with the success of its first anime season, which wrapped up its two consecutive cours alongside the conclusion of the Winter 2024 anime schedule ahead of April.

Undead Unluck boasts an abundance of source material for potential adaptation in a second season. Fans eagerly await news regarding the return of the talented staff and studio behind the initial season, which was helmed by director Yuki Yase at David Production with planning by Unlimited Produce from TMS.
