(yeah you all knew this was coming, didn’t you)

My actual answer is either the Spring and Ragnarok arcs, but the Tenraisai arc is pretty much my favorite in the post-loop for all the development that the Chinese team gets after all that we learned in Summer. (and. yknow. one-sided fengfuu)

A Duo You Appreciate: Chikara and Sean

Undead Unluck is absolutely chockablock with great duos, it's basically the premise, but while pretty much all of them illustrate or represent a core theme of the series particularly well, I don't think any of them reach the level of mechanical synergy that Chikara and Sean manage to

What I mean is that their abilities are such a phenomenally perfect complement to each other that it's amazing there was ever a time they managed to function alone

For how many Negator abilities are centered around vision, theirs are unique in that they both require that they play the same game as their target - Unmove cannot move, and Unsee cannot see. No other ability functions so symmetrically, but both of them do simultaneously

But Unmove, by necessity, must see

Unseen, to be useful, must move

They both not only have what the other lacks, but are both practically defined by it

Unseen, in being so, cannot be stopped by Unmove, and thus can maneuver unabated, either offensively to strike a frozen foe, or defensively to evade an oncoming attack

Unmove, in only limiting the movement of its owner's limbs, can be moved by Unseen, and by allowing and requiring the use of one's eyes, can in turn act as Unseen's eyes

With the aid of Unseen, Unmove is no longer a stationary liability, a tower to defend, but now a hidden mobile fortress, putting a stop to any encroaching threat

With the aid of Unmove, Unseen is no longer blind, fumbling around and lost in the dark, but now a guided missile, aimed directly where it will be most effective

Alone, they are hampered, impeded, and disabled

But together, they are not only capable, they're practically invincible

If you're frozen in the enemy's sight, you find a way to attack from behind. If you can't see the enemy, you attack in all directions. But what can you do when you can't see where you're being frozen from?

You can't attack them from behind because you can't tell where behind them is

You can't attack in all directions because you're already frozen

This combo is so potent that it was the solution to the strongest single attack in the series: Sun's attempt to destroy the Earth's core. God himself couldn't overcome this duo, what hope would any other combatant have?

I’ve also restocked Fuuko and Andy! 💖🙈

Day 3 - say hello to the sillies

They’re such a good duo and I enjoy that they both have the “gone too soon, getting a second chance this time” motif to them.
