Andy is one of the protagonists in Undead Unluck, and due to his Undead ability, he is immortal. However, fans wonder why Andy has a card stuck in his head.
The Undead Unluck anime is based on the manga of the same name written and illustrated by Yoshifumi Tozuka.

Who Is Andy in Undead Unluck?
Andy holds the 9th position at the Round Table and operates under the moniker Undead as a Negator.
His true identity traces back to Victor, a mysterious character in the series who also possesses the ability of the Undead.
Andy's unique capabilities have frozen his physical age in his mid-20s.
A striking tattoo of “DEAD END” adorns his left shoulder. On his left pectoral lies the tattoo of 1865, while a distinctive scar persists unfalteringly, impervious to his regeneration.
Andy’s Undead ability grants him the power to regenerate after any attack. This unique trait nullifies anything that threatens to bring him near death, halting the aging process in its tracks.
By default, his regeneration is automatic, but through rigorous training, he has gained the ability to manipulate its speed.
Notably, any severed body parts remain viable for merely 30 seconds after detachment.
Using Undead, Andy has developed a variety of attacks like Parts Bullet, which allows him to leverage his regenerative capabilities, enabling him to utilize his half-severed body parts as projectiles.
But what really makes Andy stand out is the card that is strategically placed on his forehead just above his left eye.

Why Does Andy Have a Card in His Head?
The card affixed to Andy's forehead results in a semi-closed eye, leaving behind a distinctive scar.
While it may appear stylish, this card-like object serves a practical function.
In Episode 1 of the series, Andy and Fuuko Izumo are ambushed by the Black Suit Leader and his men.
The Black Suit Leader’s men are able to cut Andy’s head and contain it in a special capsule. Later, the capsule breaks and Andy emerges out of it.
During Andy’s regeneration, the Black Suit Leader orders his men to slice up his body, admitting his lack of prowess in combat.
Andy asserts that while he might be a novice currently, he was not so in the past.
Due to limited mental capacity, he inserts a card into his brain, storing a century’s worth of memories.
Subsequently, he extracts the card from his head and that triggers something inside Andy, transforming him into a ninja assassin.
He uses his abilities to eliminate the assailants swiftly. Therefore, that card plays a crucial role in Andy’s fighting abilities.
It is also likely connected to his alter ego, Victor, who is a ruthless and skilled fighter.
