The newest anime from the pages of Shonen Jump is Undead Unluck, a story surrounding a group of people who have unique powers that negate the rules around them. The anime has just begun airing, yet fans are already eagerly waiting to see what new powers are waiting for them in the coming episodes.
Most interesting is the existence of Union, an exclusive group of Negators that attempted to hunt down the main characters Andy and Fuuko. While many of the Negators have yet to be revealed in the anime, it’s a sure bet that many of them are incredibly powerful.
Updated February 18, 2024, by Danny Guan: The Union has had a variety of negators in their roster, each one with their own unique powers and abilities. Due to the Round Table’s limited seating, the Union is unable to recruit negators endlessly, meaning they must pick and choose those who have the most powerful and useful abilities to further the cause. Here are some more negators who are members of the Union, whether past or future.
10 Best Action Comedy Anime To Watch If You Love Undead Unluck
Undead Unluck is one of Fall 2023’s most anticipated anime, and here are some older anime that share similar action-comedy themes with the show.
13 Nico Vorgeil
Negator Ability: Unforgettable
Nico is the resident scientist of the Union, and one of the oldest members as well, to the point that he has an adult daughter working with him in his lab. He is responsible for much of the advanced technology that the Union uses, such as Tatiana’s containment suit and the translator necktie that negators use to speak to anyone in any language.
Nico’s negator ability is Unforgettable, negating his ability to forget anything after its manifestation. He remembers even the smallest of details, and the weight of those memories places a huge burden on his brain. He can even replicate fighting styles he has seen, which gives him a slight edge in combat, but his ability is mostly one where its value is in its utility rather than its strength.
12 Chikara Shigeno
Negator Ability: Unmove
Chikara was a normal high school student, but when his status as a negator was exposed, he was kidnapped and taken to a cruise ship to be auctioned. He was saved by Andy and Fuuko, and joined the Union to show his gratitude. As the most normal member of the Union, he is flustered by the massive burden being a member of the Union places on him.
Chikara’s negator ability is Unmove, which allows him to negate the movements of anything in his field of vision. However, he must remain motionless as well, meaning it is difficult for him to fully realize the usefulness of his power on his own. His cowardly nature also makes using his power difficult at times, but he soon learns to control his abilities , making him an incredibly useful supporting fighter.
11 Phil Hawkins
Negator Ability: Unfeel
Phil Hawkins is easily the most mysterious member of the cast. Very little is known about how he came to the Union or why he became a member, and it would be a long time before his backstory would finally be addressed in the manga.
Phil’s negator ability is Unfeel, which allows him to negate his own feelings, whether emotional or physical. This allows him to use Artifacts without having to worry about the aftereffects, such as the mental strain from transferred memories. With a body made entirely of Artifacts, this makes Phil an incredibly unique aspect to the Union.
10 Void Volks
Negator Ability: Unavoidable
A former boxer, not much was initially known about Void, due to his appearance being covered up by his massive mechanical suit. Though he posed a threat to Andy and Fuuko in his first appearance, he was ultimately killed by Andy, who was aiming to steal his seat.
Despite his short appearance, Void had an incredibly powerful negator power that made him a deadly foe. Unavoidable made his targets unable to move whenever he assumed an attack stance, making it impossible for them to dodge his attacks.
9 Top Bull Sparx
Negator Ability: Unstoppable
Top Bull Sparx is one of the younger members of Union, being a teenager who lived in Brazil before becoming a member. A former sprinter, a dark tragedy from his past made him much more mature than someone his age would normally be.
Top’s Negator ability is Unstoppable, which allows him to run at breakneck speeds. He can utilize the speed to give him stronger kicks and jumps, but it takes a violent force to get him to stop. Top is a versatile ally for the other Union members who can use his ability to support others or fight on his own.
8 Isshin/Haruka Yamaoka
Negator Ability: Unbreakable

6 Fuuko Izumo
Negator Ability: Unluck
Fuuko is the main character of the series, someone who has been constantly cursed by her power. Her negator ability, Unluck, bestows misfortune on anyone she touches, with the degree of misfortune increasing depending on how much she likes them.

5 Gena Chamber
Negator Ability: Unchange
Gena Chamber is a long-standing member of Union, having been a member for at least fifty years. However, that isn’t shown in her appearance, which still gives off the look of a teenage girl.
Gena’s ability is Unchange, which allows her to keep an object from changing its state. She can use this to walk on water or create barriers from air. Gena also uses this power to keep her makeup from flaking off, since she cannot use this power on her own body or any living thing.

2 Juiz
