What Can We Expect From Season 2?

One of the Introductory Part’s Most Intense Moments

In shōnen manga like DANDADAN, the story often begins with a captivating introduction that sets the stage for the characters, world, and sometimes the main antagonist. This initial part is designed to be engaging but predictable, ensuring a safe entry point for readers. The intro of DANDADAN stands out as one of the most powerful in shōnen manga history, generating significant buzz even before its October 2024 premiere, with the first six episodes leaked a month earlier. However, the conclusion of the first season left fans hanging with an unexpected cliffhanger. Those who haven’t read the manga have been eagerly awaiting resolution to the mystery surrounding Jiji’s haunted house, unaware of how intense the storyline is about to become. Rest assured, Momo is safe as Turbo Granny intervenes once more, shielding her from the malicious Kito men who entered the onsen with sinister intentions.

Why DANDADAN Season 2 Could Be a Worldie

Bringing Jiji Into the Group

In the second season of DANDADAN, we might witness an internet-shattering event due to the unveiling of Jiji’s house history, which involves the Kito family sacrificing people to a tsuchinoko for prosperity, but the Evil Eye entity haunting Jiji’s home is actually a sacrifice victim from the Edo period who was consumed by another spirit, resulting in the emergence of a terrifying Slenderman-like entity. This entity will soon possess Jiji, similar to how the Acrobatic Silky took Aira, but unlike the Silky, the Evil Eye has malicious intentions. Consequently, viewers can anticipate a thrilling showdown between a possessed Jiji and Okarun in her full Turbo Granny transformation during the second season of DANDADAN.

In contrast to the ongoing conflict, it’s none other than Jiji who emerges as the main character. Upon discovering the tragic past of the boy given to the tsuchinoko, Jiji can’t bring himself to harbor animosity towards him. Instead, he offers to accommodate the entity within himself, enduring one of the most challenging Ranma 1/2 side effects – any contact with cold water triggers the Evil Eye to seize control. This is dangerous as the entity is enraged and bloodthirsty. Despite the perils, Jiji remains resolute, aiming to fortify his body to house the potent power of the Evil Eye, similar to Aira and Okarun with their entities. Thus, Jiji is on a path to become a shōnen hero much like his companions. However, what truly sets this arc apart is the escalating series of events that unfold, culminating in the intense clash between Okarun and Jiji.

The second season of DANDADAN is scheduled to air on July 3rd. Meanwhile, GKIDS has obtained the rights for the American theatrical release of the first three episodes, which are set to premiere in US cinemas in June.
