| A lot of storytelling about Akira Kuno this time including the time with her mom, ambitions, and manga drawing skills. Tbh, I think Akira might be the one of the most interesting character in the show with his past. The way that he wants to grant her mother's wish is inspirational. But also, this show goes to show that everything has a consequence. There's no such thing as free lunch in their world. |

| So, Anno Un's backstory, huh... He was just an ordinary boy, blending in anywhere he went. Yet, he had an unusual habit of drifting off to sleep while listening to manga readings. Somewhere along the line, his mother started listening to his imaginative stories instead. One day, he encountered an ancient artifact called the G-Liner and touched it. In that moment, he was chosen as the denier. This event would drastically alter his fate in the days to come. More than anything, I really hope they skip this whole recap that takes up like half the runtime for the finale next week. Anyways, Anno Un's backstory was sad as hell. Despite his efforts, nobody seems to notice him, not even when he's right there. His mother had a tough life, adding to the tragedy. Anno Un seems to be confirmed as Unknown now, with the saddest story yet. The artifacts keep getting stronger. I wonder where they come from. Anno Un spent his whole life alone, only able to talk to two strangers through a manga he writes weekly. Also, I think Andy's teacher might be part of Under, but I need to check again. It would feel like a waste if Unseen died now, especially since Under can bring people back. Poor Rip just wants to fix his mistake and survive another loop. Still, though I hate him, kinda. It's a fight for Autumn in the finale! |

| final episode next week 😭😭😭😭 |
| Only one more ep of peak left ugh 😩 Shame it’s not having a boost on manga sales, the anime is really fun. They got the pacing perfect for once. Little recap at the start, but plenty of time to get across Anno Un’s story. And what a story it was. His backstory is so damn sad. Gives heavy “you’re not the only one burdened with knowledge” vibes. Finding a pen that tells you all the events of the timeline has to be overwhelming as a little kid. Then turning invisible to everyone you know and love, and having to abandon your whole name/identity is a fate worse than death. The scene of his mom who had got old and sick in the hospital reading his manga and saying how beautiful it was.. pain Writing a manga with Andy and Fuuko stories is such a cool way to communicate across time and space. He’s basically been with them the whole time when you think about it. When you see everything she’s been thru and done for the success of the Union, can’t help but think Anno un has to be the best character in the story! Victory in this timeline wouldn’t be possible without his contributions. |

| This isn't really getting popular in Japan despite the superb quality for some reason, seriously such a shame. So everything up to now was like a parallel universe/what-if scenario, but it will still remain in Andy's memories. Cool! 九能 (Kunou) - "nine abilities", this name may have some hidden meaning, idk. And 明 (Akira) is "bright; light". The pen is like Eren kissing Historia's hand lol Another child's life ruined by a negator ability, goddamit. This is rough. There's Gina! We haven't seen her for so long T_T There is a long scene after credits! Really good episode. Seeing Anno Un/Akira's backstory was really fun. I guess his power is "Unknown", right? But I have to wonder why everyone can see him now, but couldn't before. Last episode next. |
 |
| Sad story again Poor Child but instead of dying, the reaction after accepting the reality was incredible… |
| if you hated this episode/chapter, just watch/read something else... 100k on IG (https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh) Discord (https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7) for anime links / news / recom etc |
| The animation in this episode looked nice, I hope they go all out for the last one (the brief hints in the preview look promising). |
 |
| Oh boy the backstory of our narrator aka our sensei Anno Un. Red flag already flying high after the lost of his left arm, so we need to know his story as well. He's also a negator, codename Unknown which is very cool and makes sense by how he can comes undetected and can even teleported away cause he's unknown. Perhaps the fact that he can talks to them was the work of another Artifact or G-liner effects or whatever, kinda be astonishing to see. But that's it the story of our sole narrator here. Either if he's manage to be alive it all for another case later.... Now on to the newly fresh page unknown by Anno Un sensei even, Rip holds such a mystery. What Latla? Who's Latla? Why there's two Latla? Un sensei refuse to elaborate furthermore. Well, Rip kinda give such an interesting deal with his cooperation. However, with the sudden arrival of Autumn, there's nothing that can stop final episode to fill with banger wicked-sick actions pack. Let's see the last! |

Spoof_490 said: @Drageoks clearly you didn't pay attention, he's using a pen name that has nothing to do with his real name, that's why everyone can read it. I mean, he is currently at 16th episode but commenting on 23rd episode's discussion. Clearly a plothhole. |
 |
| Finally Akira Kuno past!! God damn what a tragic backstory. So it's Unknown, but I'm wondering why everyone(Negators) can see him now but not before. What's the condition?? Next week is the Season Finale. Looks like it's going to be the climax battle against UMA Autumn. |
 |
| Oh no not Unknown with both arms, argh! The bunny got unlucky. And then Under aren't thinking logically, the plans they put in place aren't going to work. They really should just team up to win especially since they're told the ark can only carry Juiz. |
 |
| With Fuko and Andy's story rewritten, it's time for Anno Un a.k.a Akira Kuno's backstory. A boy who loves creating stories like manga, he picks up the Artifact G-Liner, which is said to transpire time, along with the knowledge of the UMAs and all, which he inevitably becomes a Negator along with it. The price of having that pen, is that he becomes invisible to Earth, even though he could still see her in the flesh. And the story that he wated to create: Andy and Fuko, Undead + Unluck, in the form of "To You, From Me" a normal romance Shoujo manga with his Anno Un pen name from his Unknown ability, allowing him to connect with his mother. Even as the manga got serialized, Akira just couldn't believe that her story is all but a coincidence, until her memories spiraled up to find Andy from August 1st, 2020. Like himself, Andy and the others who have Negator abilities, they are truly suffering, and Akira can only correct the trajectory in her own manga about the future, especially when it comes to the UMAs, and especially the D-Day on December 5th, where Unseen would be Fuko's demise, that she readily had the future predicted to save her life. From here on, the story is unwritten, as Rip literally rips through Akira and also wants the Ark for themselves as UMA Autumn descends on Andy, Fuko, Rip, Bunny and Artla. A 2-by-2-way race to see who gets Autumn eliminated first, and it's a race against time. |

| Another anime arriving in its penultimate episode Finding a pen that tells all the events in the timeline must be a difficult task for a child |
 |
| What a gigachad Anno Un was, the story would never have reached a possible good ending without him, really hope he survives somehow which is unlikely :( next ep is finale, please David Production don't give up on this anime, its an incredible nekketsu with lots of potential :( |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| Man, the scenes with the mom in Anno's backstory were painful. I'm just glad she got to reunite with a part of him one last time through that manga. It was pretty cool to see Gina again after forever too. Also, it's funny to see a manga artist demand a "Dead Line" to come as soon as humanly possible. |
| Anno Un was once just a child who learned about undead unluck and got his life ruined as a twisted cosmic joke! But it is that same cruel fate that allows him to save Fuuko. I hope this uncharted territory leads to the good timeline! |
 |
| It was really sad to see how She didn't get noticed by everyone when first time getting negators. |

| Anno Un was a guy all along? I really thought he was a girl lol. Damn. His back story is sad. I guess that goes for all the negators. None of them has it easy. I admire Akira Kuno's tenacity. The fact that he decided to help everyone instead of just giving up thinking it's all hopeless was great. I really hope he won't die. He's too interesting of a character. Only one episode left. Man, this sucks. Not the show. Undead Unluck's great. But if it's really true that this show isn't making waves then it's a problem. From the summary I've seen about future events, this series just keeps getting better and better. I really hope they won't pull the plug on Season 2. It sucks this anime didn't receive much marketing since it's exclusive to Hulu or something. Fucking hate these platform exclusivities. |
| Oh damn, only one more episode left. That is a sad backstory for Anno Un, being unable to interact with others but able to see them be sad. And ahh Akira lost a second arm. Uhhh can that be fixed without an arm to draw it back on? Better start learning to draw with toes. What was that orb ? Something that made it so he could interact with others again somehow by changing his body or something? And leave on a cliffhanger too...come on next ep |

| that was a really great episode |
| 🌈 i just want gintama back |
| The backstory of Anno Un, or Akira Kuno, was a sad one. Encountering the G-Liner artifact and getting excited of seeing events past and future was one thing, but the downside of acquiring that artifact was him becoming invisible to everyone around him. That also included his own mother, whose breakdown scene of trying to find him was really sad. =( Despite that, I do admire how determined he was in doing his best with the powers that he had, leading up to the present where Andy's reemergence from the books and Akira's own warning saved Fuko's life from being ended right then and there by Unseen. I really enjoyed this episode overall. The animation in particular was very impressive with Rip's attacks. His bunny teammate was very cute, though, including how she comically rolled into the wall after being slapped by Fuko. XD Despite being enemies, both sides will work together to deal with the threat of UMA Autumn. It'll certainly make for a thrilling finale, since it'll be a battle of who'll take Autumn down first. |
| Oh ok, so that explains Anno Un's nickname and backstory from the moment he obtained his G-pen to the present time where he was able to stop Fuko from dying. What I still don't really understand is how if he really can't touch or be in contact with the rest when was he able to do so like he is now. Did he find another artifact or is it because he drew it in order to bend the G-pen's rules? Also there are still questions about Under that I don't hink will be explained in one episode so unless we get a second season this is gonna be a hell of a cliffhanger. |

| @rasterman7 I was wondering what the blue ball thing was he found in the water. |
| Anno-Un as in Unknown, wow. What a sad ability damn, undetected. Just damn. Really liked sensei's character, good guy. Dont care much about Rip or Latla though. |

Reply to Drageoks
I don’t get how anno’s negator ability makes him unable to be seen or felt yet every character in the present can see him no problem? Does his ability not work for other negators? And how come everyone can read his serialized manga including his mom but when he was a kid he couldn’t show his mom the manga he was making? These seem like pretty blatant plot holes to me
Drageoks said: Maybe pay attention to the episode more. He literally says people can read stuff he writes as long as he doesn't relate it to himself and use it under the pen name.I don’t get how anno’s negator ability makes him unable to be seen or felt yet every character in the present can see him no problem?
