Undead Unluck (Manga)

Undead Unluck (アンデッド アンラック) is an ongoing manga series written and illustrated by Yoshifumi Tozuka.

Plot
The story follows an 18-year-old girl named Fuuko Izumo, who has been living in seclusion for 10 years since an incident that left more than 200 people dead, including her parents, when she was eight years old. Following the completion of her favorite long-running girls' manga series, Fuuko decides to commit suicide. She is tormented by the fact that she cannot be touched by anyone due to her "unluck" ability, which brings bad luck to anyone she comes into contact with in the flesh. She meets an "undead" man who has amazing regenerative abilities and who desires to die the best death possible, disliking his immortal life. For the sake of convenience, Fuuko names him Andy because he is undead, and they begin to work together. However, they soon see themselves chased by the Union (ユニオン, Yunion), a mysterious organization.
