Episode 22 of Undead Unluck delves deep into Andy’s past, primarily focusing on Victor. As Fuuko delves into Andy’s oldest memory in Washington D.C. in 1865, she encounters Victor, who is determined to halt her exploration.
Victor vehemently opposes Fuuko’s intrusion into Andy’s memories, asserting his status as the original personality and demanding his freedom. He believes that killing Fuuko, seizing control, and exacting revenge on Juiz for sealing him inside Andy is the only way to achieve liberation.
In addition to unraveling Victor’s backstory, episode 22 highlights the growth of Andy and Fuuko since their initial encounter in the series premiere, shedding light on their evolving dynamic.
What Happened With Victor In His Past Life?
Undead Unluck episode 22 doesn’t reveal Victor’s complete backstory, but it offers enough insights for viewers to grasp the circumstances that shaped him. Initially, Juiz and Victor, founders of the Union, experienced several triumphs on their path to thwarting God and preventing Ragnarök. However, Victor’s demeanor shifted as failures mounted, fostering bitterness within him.
Building upon Billy’s remarks in episode 16, Fuuko’s visions in episode 17, and the revelation of a worldwide time-loop in episode 18, Victor disclosed his growing cynicism after numerous failed attempts to eliminate God. Amidst the fragments of information, a narrative emerges: Juiz sealed Victor and created Andy.
Now driven by a singular purpose, Victor aims to seize control of Andy by ending Fuuko’s life and then exact vengeance on Juiz. He bluntly informs Fuuko of his intent to annihilate her repeatedly until her soul fractures, arguing that she doesn’t belong in their story.
Given his superior speed and functional immortality, Victor succeeds in killing Fuuko multiple times, ultimately leading to their initial encounter on August 1, 2020.
Undead Unluck Episode 22’s Intense Showdown and Unexpected Revelations
Undead Unluck’s latest opening sequence hinted at a showdown between Andy and Victor, with Fuuko providing her Unluck support. This foreshadows the intense battle that unfolds in episode 22, where Andy and Fuuko must confront the older, deadlier, yet less inventive Victor for control over Andy’s body.
Initially, the fight appears heavily skewed in Victor’s favor, given his wider array of attack options compared to Andy. However, Andy’s clarity of mind, influenced by Fuuko’s words on life and death from episode 21, enables him to fight with newfound creativity.
Andy employs various tactics, such as forming blood blades from his arms, transforming his legs into tire treads, and engaging in a dramatic beam struggle reminiscent of Dragon Ball with colossal blood waves colliding.
The tide of the battle turns when Andy and Fuuko utilize a combination of cunning and creativity, leveraging Fuuko’s Unluck and Andy’s finger bullets.
Each bullet inflicts escalating misfortune upon Victor, from a simple gas main explosion to a train collision, culminating in a plane crash and Victor’s head being sealed inside the Union capture device intended for Andy.
Rather than engaging in another confrontation with the enhanced Andy and Fuuko, Victor surprises them by offering his respect and words of encouragement.
This unexpected gesture marks a significant revelation in Undead Unluck episode 22, showcasing Victor’s acknowledgment of Andy and Fuuko’s growth.
In a candid moment, Victor addresses a few of Fuuko’s inquiries, shedding light on his relationship with Juiz. Confirming Juiz’s implication from episode 18, Victor reveals that they were more than just friends—they were a couple.
However, his intention to kill Juiz stemmed from his desire to spare her from becoming cynical or meeting a frivolous demise, given her mortality contrasted with his immortality.
Despite the weight of these revelations, Victor dismisses the significance of the past memories, emphasizing that Andy and Fuuko’s current trajectory is more important.
He believes that as long as they continue advancing, embracing creativity, and maintaining their resolve, they stand a chance against God, especially with Fuuko’s Unluck steadily evolving.
In a touching moment, Victor draws a parallel between Andy and Fuuko’s dynamic and his past relationship with Juiz, expressing admiration for their resemblance to him and Juiz.
This heartfelt exchange underscores the depth of Victor’s respect for Andy and Fuuko, highlighting their potential to overcome formidable challenges, including facing off against God.
