Building Anticipation for DANDADAN Season 2 With Style

Previously mentioned, Abel Góngora, co-director of the second season of “DANDADAN”, along with voice actors Abby Trott (Momo), A.J. Beckles (Okarun), and Aleks Le (Sung Jinwoo from “Solo Leveling”) who recently won Best Voice-Over Artist in English at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards, were present at the World Premiere event. “DANDADAN” received praise for its outstanding opening sequence and character designs, and to demonstrate his connection to the series, Aleks Le wore an outfit inspired by Jiji’s appearance after being possessed by the Evil Eye in later stages of DANDADAN: Evil Eye. Meanwhile, Abby Trott appeared as Momo at the event.

I’ve worked hard to convey Jiji’s feelings towards Evil Eye, and I truly hope you can empathize with the same affection he feels. It’s both adorable and heartrending, so I’d love to hear your thoughts on it once you’re done.

In the opening scene of “DANDADAN: Evil Eye,” we are reminded of the events from season 1, then swiftly return to the Cursed House storyline, a chapter that many viewers will recall ended dramatically, with Momo in grave danger, and Jiji and Okarun stumbling upon a shocking hidden room in Jiji’s house. The World Premiere was graced by an enthusiastic crowd of fans excited to witness the continuation of the “DANDADAN” narrative, fortunate enough to catch a sneak peek before everyone else, including Japanese spectators. The attendance at this event is merely a drip compared to the anticipated crowds for the official theatrical release.
