The Undead Unluck anime came out back in 2023. The action comedy is based on Yoshifumi Tozuka’s manga series of the same name which ran from 2020-2025. Viz Media publishes this Shueisha series in English and describes the story as:
All Fuuko wants is a passionate romance like the one in her favorite shojo manga. Unfortunately, her Unluck ability makes that impossible. But just as Fuuko hits rock bottom, Andy sweeps her off her feet—literally! Now she’s become Andy’s unwilling test subject as he works to find a way to trigger a stroke of Unluck big enough to kill him for good. However, when the pair discovers a secret organization is hunting them, it puts Andy’s burial plans on hold.
