This is a show just as much for fans of demons and the occult as it is for those of sci-fi, aliens who want to steal people’s genitals, and genre-spiked rom-coms. It is a testament to the writing of this anime that it all mixes together this well, because the show goes from spooky to gross to hilarious to even cute all in the span of a few minutes without ever feeling jarring.

Dan Da Dan season 2 picks up without missing a beat. Coming off of season 1’s wild cliffhanger, these first three episodes deliver on a highly anticipated storyline with menacing characters and an emotional throughline.

This strong season premiere sets a different, more mature tone for Dan Da Dan and places our favorite paranormal investigators in new territory.

Dan Da Dan’s first three episodes manage to stick the landing by focusing more on the anime’s lovable protagonists and less so on the absurdity of the occult and extraterrestrial world they inhabit

It provides a fresh approach compared to other supernatural anime, where darkness often dominates the narrative. Ultimately, this balance of horror and humor makes Dan Da Dan a standout in its genre, carving out a new niche with its playful unpredictability.

“Dandadan” é uma obra única e surpreendente no cenário dos mangás e animes modernos, trazendo frescor ao gênero de ação sobrenatural com uma mistura bem equilibrada de humor, terror e romance. A criação de Yukinobu Tatsu impressiona não só pela premissa inusitada, que combina espíritos e alienígenas de maneira fluida, mas também pelo desenvolvimento dos personagens e pela capacidade de prender a atenção do leitor com reviravoltas e cenas de tirar o fôlego.A dinâmica entre os protagonistas, Momo Ayase e Ken Takakura (ou “Okarun”), é um dos pontos mais fortes do anime. A relação deles, com suas diferenças de crenças e personalidades, rende momentos engraçados e cativantes, que se tornam ainda mais intensos conforme eles enfrentam ameaças de mundos além do nosso. Momo e Okarun possuem uma profundidade que vai se revelando aos poucos, o que torna fácil para o público se apegar a eles e torcer por sua amizade – e, talvez, por algo a mais.Além dos personagens, “Dandadan” impressiona visualmente. As ilustrações e animações (no caso do anime) são cheias de detalhes e energia, especialmente nas cenas de ação, onde o estilo artístico de Tatsu realmente brilha. As sequências de lutas são intensas e bem coreografadas, enquanto o design dos seres sobrenaturais e alienígenas é tanto inovador quanto assustador, mantendo um clima de suspense que complementa o humor irreverente da obra.A série também se destaca por seu ritmo ágil e sua criatividade narrativa. Ao alternar entre momentos de alta tensão e cenas cômicas, “Dandadan” cria uma experiência de leitura e visualização que nunca fica monótona. A combinação de humor e horror é rara de encontrar tão bem executada, e Tatsu consegue equilibrar esses elementos de forma a surpreender e engajar o público a cada **** resumo, “Dandadan” é um anime que vale a pena conferir para quem busca algo diferente e cheio de personalidade. É uma obra que se destaca no mar de mangás e animes convencionais, com personagens carismáticos, uma história original e uma mistura única de emoções.

One of the most funny and crazy anime series, mixing supernatural, sci-fi, action and comedy all together in a whirling madness of pure energy. Most of the characters are genuine and truly engaging, the storyline delivers the creativity needed to make it a solid piece of entertainment. In my opinion, the best anime since Gurren Lagann.

Dan Da Dan is a crazy mad rush episode to episode, focusing on your enjoyment above all else. The characters are mostly (looking at you Jiji) enjoyable and loads of fun to watch be put in increasingly crazier and weirder scenarios, with most (JIJI!) bouncing off of each other extremely well. The fights and animation in general are fantastic and well choreographed. All in all, just a solid show to watch.

Its a good anime, but Some pieces of the Plot are hand waved, and the episodes themselves need to be much longer. So Far its an 8/10, I will Update this rating after Season 1.
