Now that there's a bunch of people that have at least seen it in the stream, Undead Unlock is pretty amazing, huh? Seems like a nice high budget production. I haven't been excited for an action-y anime in a while

I think this audio track is new, or altered, or maybe this intro part of it hasn't played before. (and obviously this clip has episode 18 spoilers). The intro part with the bass-y strings... it's so good.
I really, really want the soundtrack. And I'll say it again: this show is BEAUTIFUL

I'll bump the thread tomorrow when I talk about the episode, but despite this lacking the popularity it deserve I've noticed that it at least pops up on the 'hot' shows on release day every week on anilist.
This works by people updating their "watched episode 5" thing, so it means enough people are watching it to make a difference here, briefly.

That was a really fun and unexpected episode. It's strange because it doesn't feel like they're rushing towards a conclusion and are instead taking their time. This episode did move the story forward, a little bit, but it could have easily been condensed into 3 minutes so they could fit more things in before they run out of episodes.
Very strange pacing, not that I'm complaining. I wonder what it could mean. I really really REALLY want there to be another season, but it's apparently under-performing because people have terrible taste. Poor BD sales or manga or something. I mentioned this somewhere but forgot where (was it in this thread?).
Anyway... cool episode! I wonder if I should go make some clips of it, but what stands out...

I feel like there was a quality dip with this episode, although it was still good. It had a second recap was just outright playing a previous episode for a full minute in addition to the usual recap that started the episode. It was really blatant filler, too and not a "oh yeah I guess this is important to remember" thing. Some CGI is there, too, although it's appeared before and in the same kind of situation now that I think about it more.
I don't how this anime planning and stuff works, but if they're still working on it then I wonder if Urusei Yatsura is dividing their time.
There's not many episodes left, so what are they doing? This is when you should be pulling out the big stuff and giving it an epic conclusion that everyone will be talking about.

Too far North. No one would notice anyways.

Also what's wrong with the quality? They used 3D instead of handdrawn?

3D, yeah, but it was also used during the first major fight in the show against the UMA zombie guy. Basically they don't want to animate groups of stuff.
There's just a few moments where you get a real "huh?" feeling. I'd assume that having 3 minutes of recap would mean they wouldn't have to cut corners. Sometimes I feel like I'm more sensitive to random 3D than most people.
It's normal in other shows, but that's the problem when you have the bar set so high.

Man, I really, really don't understand how they're going to end this in two weeks. There's no option other than a massively disappointing "TO BE CONTINUED!". I really don't know how to gauge how popular the show is in Japan and whether or not it will get a second season, but I certainly hope it does.
I do have a theory on how it's going to end abruptly since it's been building into it and it could be quite a crazy way to end the show. My assumption is that God is going to wipe everything out and the story will continue on the next loop. Fuko already knows things she shouldn't (the stars thing) so she must have some sort of memory reincarnation thing going on.
This episode was quite a bit different from the previous one, very action-y. I did feel like the visual quality was down a little bit, but not as much as two episodes ago with the 3D stuff. But, I know I'm being too hard on it. Action stuff requires a lot more frames so if you have X amount of time for static scenery of talking characters and the same amount of time for a bunch of movement then obviously the high amount of frames needed for movement will lead to lower individual quality. Maybe people won't even notice. There were still great individual frames, though.
I'll upload some clips later...

In this episode this part and the next upload is separated by like 10 minutes, but it makes a little more sense together... maybe.
It sure looks cool at least!

I'm not sure if I mentioned it or not in this thread, but another thing that David Production does really well is sound design which I think is more obvious during scenes like this.

Well, it's over. It wasn't a spectacular over-the-top end, but it was pretty good.
Sadly, there wasn't a big "SEE YOU IN SEASON TWO" card, but it did at least have 20 seconds of teaser that could possibly be interpreted that way. But, it could also just mean "GO BUY THE MANGA!" so I'll go with the most likely scenario and think it's manga-related. Maybe this is where it would benefit to use social media to check it for what the staff are saying, but meh.
Maybe it's time to read the manga...

(video is kinda spoiler-y I think? Not sure...)
Watching this scene at 20% speed you can appreciate the animation a lot more, but that's true for a lot of the action scenes. The amount of detail you miss it really quite remarkable.

Anyway... what did you guys think of Undead Unluck? The recaps were a problem, but apart from that it's really amazing. Fantastic and stylish visuals, wonderful soundtrack (still don't see it online), great sound effects, phenomenal direction, quite poignant emotional moments and overall just a superb experience. Even if you're someone that doesn't like action stuff I think it's worth trying this to experience the style. Just look through the thread's screenshots and I think you'll see what I mean.
Maybe I can try to be inspired by that /jp/ thread and write up paragraphs of why I like it. I did already fill up a thread, though...
I downloaded the manga! I guess now I need to decide if I'll read it or wait for some miracle of a S2 announcement. David Production's 2024 schedule is so far only Urusei Yatsura, but more Undead so soon is probably too much to hope for. (or maybe hoping for it ever...)

Looking through the manga it's kind of crazy how many shots are done exactly the same in the anime. Like, EXACT exact.
The anime is extremely faithful, although this is just Chapter 1 of course.

I forget exactly how they did it in the anime, but what's really crazy to me is how well drawn the manga is despite being the author's first real manga. I thought that David Productions was really touching it up, but they had a good base to start with.

Yeah, it said on the first page that his debut was a "one-shot" and this was his first real one and it was in Shonen Jump already. I'd say it's well earned.
It's VERY well drawn, especially at conveying motion. This is what CHAPTER ONE LOOKS LIKE ALREADY! Geez, this is he he starts out?

Also, damn, looking at this again knowing what I do after seeing the rest of the anime...
These single frames that flash on screen during the intro are quite interesting. So this is the something that will happen in future, huh? It does look sort of similar to the God in the visions. God has nice boobs.

I continue to be amazed at the quality of this art. The lines are beautiful and clean.
So many panels are directly seen in the anime because the quality is just so high and the presentation can't be improved upon. It's like the guy wrote it as a director of anime or something, or however you would say that.

I read one chapter or two after the part where the anime ended and I think I'll stop. I could finish this story in hours whereas waiting for the anime will give me months of experiencing things for the first time. But I have to say again how well choreographed everything is. Yoshifumi Yozuka is very talented. This thread should survive until August 1st, so until then!
