SpongeBob Surprises in Latest Episode of Airing Shonen Jump Manga Adaptation.
In Episode 6 of Undead Unluck, a shonen anime, on Nov. 11, SpongeBob made a comical appearance when protagonist Fuuko misinterpreted “spoil” as “sponge.” The Nickelodeon character, humorously pixelated, likely to avoid copyright concerns, remained unmistakably SpongeBob even in yellow pixels.
