Holy hell. Just read through Undead + Unluck because of your raving about it and thank you it was great. The sheer attention to details in it alongside just how dang fun it is. Also great timing the source I was using to read it just uploaded the final chapter(at least of the main story) 2 days ago.

Undead Unluck ch.237 thoughts

[GAME! Final Results...]

(Topics: thematic analysis - loss/acceptance, speculation - epilogue)

nOOO!!! Clothy!!! My son!!!

I failed you! I thought for sure I found a way to keep you alive, but we still lost you...!!!

Hic...no...no, it had to be this way, didn't it...loss was always a part of this story. The acceptance of death, found through the reflection of one's life, is one of the primary themes of the narrative, someone had to go, and Clothy's circumstances provided a perfect opportunity for that

Say Yes to the Dress

He represents the loss of the UMAs as a whole while also giving someone for Fuuko to grieve. He gives Tozuka the chance to illustrate what the world looks like without UMA while also letting us, the audience, feel the weight of that change. But most of all, he primes us for what's to come

You may have noticed that Clothy's once monstrous face has significantly softened over time. In recent chapters, his eyes have been ovular and cartoonish, but in this chapter in particular, he has a familiar distinctive brow and toothy grin. In this chapter, Clothy looks exactly like Andy

Clothy has gained the same mentality as Andy. He's lived more than long enough and achieved far more than he was ever meant to accomplish. He has nothing to regret, and his legacy is secured. All of humanity will still have clothes, but more importantly, in his final act, he leaves a parting gift for his friends to remember him by: a wedding dress, for Andy and Fuuko's union, keeping him alive in the hearts of those who mattered most to him

Seeing such a dear friend pass on with literally the same smile as Andy feels like foreshadowing for the main event to come. By showing us the event in miniature, Tozuka prepares us mentally for the real thing, helping it to feel less sudden and easing the pain of it: giving us time to accept it ourselves

But like I said last week, there's still one member of the cast who may not be ready to accept these losses

It's All Ruined

With the removal of all Negation abilities, the logical conclusion is that Ruin, who presumably is still floating in the thermosphere, immediately died upon losing Unruin. Funny as that is to think about, though, Ruin was surely brought back to Earth and restored the same way that everyone else's bodies were healed

How he'll reunite with the cast is unclear for now, but I think his role will be to question the value of the final outcome, to illustrate what the cost of losing this fantastical world really was. We take at face value that this is the ideal outcome, but like everything else, it's a matter of perspective, and Ruin's isn't invalid just because it's unpopular

Japanese fans have been quick to point out that the kanji that Luna uses when she says that Negator abilities will be "extinguished" are 消滅 (shometsu). Extinguish is a fine translation, but the first kanji alone would suffice for that; the second kanji carries the connotation of destruction, complete erasure, and most interestingly, ruin

Yes, it's the kanji that is specifically used in Unruin. This implies that, in some way, this action is ruinous, so some folks believe that Ruin's Negator ability will overcome this "reward," and as I suggested last week, he might be able to use it to bring back at least the UMAs if not other Negator abilities and Artifacts. On some level I feel like that would invalidate the emotion of Clothy's "death," but I also think it would make for an interesting final philosophical debate

If nothing else, I think the conclusion of Ruin's story will play on Luna's last words:

"We will no longer intervene in this world. We will simply continue to watch over it as the Sun and Moon from here. A place no one knows. A place with no Gods."

The Great Beyond

This line implies the existence of an afterlife, and may refer to the Subspace that souls have been established to go to since, presumably, no one actually remembers Subspace after death. Everyone has conversed with their predecessors' souls at this point, but that's all anyone remembers from Subspace, so there's no evidence that anyone actually knows anything concrete about it

If that's the case, then it's likely that the UMAs that became the laws of nature also passed onto this afterlife. I don't think that Ruin is actually going to revive the UMA, but I do think he'll have a way to reach or communicate with Subspace, giving us a glimpse at how the UMA have established their own world distinct from that of humans. I wouldn't be surprised if Ruin himself even finds a way to travel to that world, abandoning this one for good

The idea of Ruin giving up on life in our world may seem antithetical to the messages of the story, but remember, Fuuko said she wanted to make a world where people could make their own decisions without being subject to the whims of the Gods. A place where people who want to live can live, and people who want to die can die

If Ruin doesn't want to live in this new world, because he can find no place in it, then it should be his right to leave it and pursue the life that he does want. Again, it may show the downsides to the world that Fuuko created, but even this is a matter of perspective

Regardless of what happens if or when Ruin comes back to Earth, though, there is one much more glaring downside to the rewards Luna gave out: the loss of Fuuko's memories

Will You Love Me Again?

Because they're just items, the loss of the Artifacts seemed like it was going to be a bit of an afterthought, the least impactful of the three Rewards. If Apocalypse were still around, he'd have a moment like Clothy's, but he got his months ago, so he didn't need to compete for screentime here

However, the presence of The Heart, even depleted, was the only thing keeping Fuuko's memories intact. The moment it vanished, as its shell shattered, so too did Fuuko's memories, their fragments fading away in one of my favorite panels that Tozuka has ever produced. If we ever make it to the anime, this is the moment I'm most excited for

To drive the weight of this moment home, we see Akira bidding farewell to Anno Un, we see Shen and Mui fall from Kinto'un as they try to make their way to Fuuko, and we see Latla running to her only to trip as Blade Runner is replaced with her original leg. The Artifacts were not an afterthought, they were a key component of this world and these characters, and their loss cannot be overstated, even if everyone is ultimately better off

While some of the cast are impeded from coming to Fuuko's side by the sudden change and others are simply paralyzed, the only one who makes it to Fuuko is Tatiana. Fuuko's first friend and her final recruit to the Union, finally wearing clothes like Fuuko wanted to see her in, and Fuuko doesn't even recognize her

The tables have completely turned. Though Fuuko can finally touch whoever she likes, she's the one who can't wear the clothes she wants to, completely unaware of the significance of the dress in front of her. Now she's the one who can't remember the pains and the joys of her life before now, the one who is no longer the person she was before that everyone wanted to be with

"I want to wear that dress the way I am right now." That line, echoing what she said before initiating the loop, "I want to live in that world with everyone as they exist now," is simply heartbreaking. The saddest line in the entire series in my opinion, as it highlights how Fuuko is the only one not to reap the benefits of her own efforts

And yet...it carries hope

Because that line doesn't exist in a vacuum. It's not a lamentation, it's a request, her final order as the boss of the Union: "bring me back." And of course, Andy responds: "leave it to me"

As Luna fades away and Fuuko looks on in confusion at the bittersweet expressions of the gathering of strangers, the man holding the dress catches her attention: "yo, brat. You free right now?"

With Fuuko's memories gone, the man known as Andy is dead. All that remains is a long-lived man with no name and no place in the world, a wanderer looking for meaning. Fortunately, he knows where to find it: with the girl who gave him his name and a place to belong, a reason to live. The goal is the same as it always was: get her to fall in love with him, make a happy life together, and see it through to the end

The Greatest Death Ever

Until next time, let's enjoy life!
