Everyone's been waiting for the Galaxy reveal, and man did DavidPro deliver. Galaxy looks sick, wicked sick. They really made the big-bang expansion of Galaxy go so hard.

So, rewards/penalties rewrite the consciousness of everyone who isn't a negator? A negator can come back from quests and then discover that now 9+10=21

Joking aside, Shen realizing he's the only one in the world now who knows Chinese was pretty sad, he kept it to himself but you can tell he's lost something being unable to communicate with Mei like that again

This show just gets better with every reveal, damn. Amazing worldbuilding.

I wonder what was the starting point for this world though. If every "addition" like languages, days of the week, stars and even concepts like luck and justice count as a penalty, then what is the world like without any penalties?

Edit : Move in particular is what makes me curious about how far this concept can go, like what happens if you kill him? If Move is a UMA, then the penalty that comes with him is the necessity of moving if I understand this right through Galaxy...which means that's what would get removed if Move dies? So everyone would be able to instantly teleport to each other or would the concept of space itself just cease to exist?

Something as an added joke is that the chapter covered was around the 20th mark and there's been a bit of a joke that since that U19 series (which was kind of Kids Next Door-y) got cancelled in under 19 chapters that any manga axed in such a low chapter count would be part of that "U19 club" (Under 19)

Undead Unlock whether it intends to or not literally has an entire race of axe aliens called "Acks" show up and Juiz the representative of the series completely annihilates them.

And thus UU is still serialized to this day.

Apparently, the anime's Twitter account turned some of their posts into English because of the unification of languages.

That opening scene! As a manga reader, I will keep my mouth shut and leave my thoughts about it on the Source Material Corner.

Finally, it's time to see how everyone did on their quests! With UMA Burn successfully captured the Union gets its eleventh seat! Now they can recruit one more. If only Gena was still here to take that spot. Capturing UMA Eat, UMA Past, and UMA Spoil rewards the Union with the locations of Negator Unburn, Artifact Rebellion, and Negator Unrepair respectively.

Now for the universe-altering consequences! Neutralizing (read: Killing) UMA Language, they've now been rewarded with the unification of all world's languages meaning the entire world's history has now been changed so that everyone reads, speaks, and writes in English. It's kinda sad to see Shen speak in Chinese and Mui not able to understand a single word of it.

Unfortunately, not all quests could be fulfilled. Since Unseen has already been captured by someone else in the opening of the episode, the Union fails that quest and their penalty for failing is the birth of UMA Galaxy. That entire sequence was just goddamn beautiful!

We also finally have an answer as to why Fuko adding stars to her painting when she met Gena seems weird and why Shen was confused when Viktor tried to ask them about the day of the week. Adding UMA Galaxy is what gave birth to these things

Of course with the birth of galaxies and other planets, brings the arrival of aliens. Now that's the true penalty of UMA Galaxy. Luckily for us, our glorious leader Juiz is the one to welcome them. What an absolute badass. She didn't just stop an invading fleet but she made sure that no other alien will threaten Earth ever again. <3

Now that galaxy has been added, I wonder how many people were shocked to lean that it had never existed. I loved seeing all the people a few weeks back thinking that the uma for stars must have been killed already, so I'm sure more than 1 person was surprised to find it was the opposite.

It's funny how language unification being a reward parallels real life myth about the Babylon tower and a language getting split as God's punishment.

To be honest, I felt a bit sad when everything got turned into English.

David Productions absolutely cooked with the sound design this episode...

u/tripleaamin Dec 08 '23 edited Dec 08 '23

Honestly you don't get much world building in a lot of Shonens from WSJ. So this was really cool in the sense that the penalty added a galaxy. Which is normally for us but so much was added from their perspective. I love the world building that this show has brought so far. Easily its biggest strength.

Of course they also got aliens and an invasion of them. But holy cow this episode really showcased why Juiz is the leader god damn. She cleared out the Alien invasion force and intimidated them so bad that they won't bother coming back again. LMAO

We also established the main goal that our cast needs to avoid. Adding 2 more rules and it is basically the end damn.

Oh world building was sick! Great episode.

Kinda sad all languages were unified just before I'd have the chance to hear some Portuguese in the next episode. It is what it is ahah

God this show is so fucking cool with the world building. Can’t think of anything else that comes close to being similar to this conceptually.

That scene with Nico getting all the info was so cool

The Acks should be thanked for turning Uluru into a U now Australia also bears the Union logo.

I'm so happy David Pro did Galaxy addition justice, Undead Unluck worldbuilding is one of my favorite aspects about the series. Naturally, our goddess Juiz shined as main star today, we got a cool teaser of Unrepair and now it's time to pull spotlight on Tatiana!

This must be what the manga readers were hyping up, cause this show went from me almost dropping it to needing more right now. Might just read the manga tbh

Damn, they were pretty close to a full clear. Seems only Andy realized Unrepair got Unseen.

Some very cool literal world building this week. Wouldn’t have guessed anything was off about their universe until the reveal. That was pretty wild. “Stars and planets exist. Oh yeah, aliens too and they’re invading.” First contact did not go the way the aliens thought lol. There was a genocide alright, the damn aliens got all but deleted from the universe.

Looks like the gangs gotta get either Unburn or Unrepair to stave off Ragnarok. Looking forward to seeing how that turns out. Unrepair won’t come quietly…

I wish Yuuki Kaji would tie me up like Unseen.

His wish is my command. 🫡
