As a long-time anime enthusiast who has witnessed the rise and fall of countless series, I must say that the upcoming “Dandadan” adaptation has piqued my interest like no other. The combination of supernatural battles, occult intrigue, and a dash of romance is a formula that has always resonated with me, especially when executed by the talented minds at Science SARU (Scott Pilgrim Takes Off).
The official account for the anime “Dandadan,” previously known as Twitter, has shared three trailers and a fresh promotional image prior to its autumn debut. These trailers offer brief glimpses into the main themes of the “Dandadan” animation, which include action scenes, supernatural elements, and romance.
The highly anticipated anime adaptation of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, created by Science SARU (based on Yukinobu Tatsu’s popular manga), has already captured our attention with its initial glimpses. Fans of anime eagerly await the premiere of the series, set to air on October 4.
Background and Production Information
What We Know About the Upcoming Dandadan Anime
Yukinobu Tatsu’s comic series titled “Dandadan” has been published in Shueisha’s digital magazine Shōnen Jump+ since April 2021, accumulating 15 volumes thus far. The narrative revolves around Momo Ayase, a student who trusts in the existence of spirits but not extraterrestrial life, and her introverted classmate Ken Takakura, who believes in aliens but dismisses ghosts – until they made a wager to explore locations said to be haunted or supernatural. Later on, Momo is kidnapped by aliens and gains psychic abilities as her chakras are activated, while Ken becomes possessed by a spirit, granting him immense power. As the story unfolds, both Momo and Ken team up to fight entities that they once considered mere figments of our imagination.
In a new anime titled “Dandadan“, Fūga Yamashiro (previously an assistant director on “Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!“) will take the helm as the director. Hiroshi Seko will be overseeing and writing the scripts, while Naoyuki Onda contributes character designs, with a special focus on yokai designs by Yoshimichi Kameda (known for work on “Mob Psycho 100“) and art direction by Junichi Higashi (art director of “Cowboy Bebop“). The music will be composed by Kensuke Ushio (music composer of “CHAINSAW MAN“). The opening theme song is “Otokone” by Creepy Nuts, and the ending theme tune is “TAIDADA” by ZUTOMAYO.
