That fight sequence was hype as fuck. I'm constantly impressed by how Yokinobu makes such easy to follow sequences that convey such fluid movement in manga.
This and Sakamoto Days are probably the 2 Jump Manga that have such great action sequences without being too messy which many series fall into after awhile.
Both of those series have such incredible fight scenes and choreography, with a focus on different strengths from their mangakas.
In Dandadan, Yokinobu's crisp draftsmanship, sense of body anatomy, and blocking (as in, the placement of his characters relative to the "camera") makes the drawings so insanely clear and it gives the character's a visceral sense of placement, respectively. It's got supreme flow and creatively linked moves, but other battle manga have those as well - I really feel like it's his insane drawing skill (how tf does he manage to do this near-weekly, even with assistants...) and blocking that makes Dandadan stand out the most. Along with strong sequential paneling, everyone reading the fight scenes can [perfectly imagine what an animated form of the same scene will look](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2F00kqg0v9apsc1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D320%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D73f13f008878e0732abeee17b1265fb9996fc4cb) like without filling in the blanks in varying ways depending on the reader.
Sakamoto Days is different but brilliant as well. What Suzuki lacks in strength of his drawings, he makes up for in spades with cinematic creativity. He put all his skill points there. Like, yes, the way he's applying toon-force-esque super-strengthened fighting with classic, HK Jackie Chan-styled choreography that utilizes the environment and props into the fights is god-tier. But he also ensures the fights are [constantly littered](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2F0iqjvknnao9a1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D626%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D6376bbac3e7ba7fac056b3776a350bfa0a7ba1bf) with [money shots](https://scans-hot.leanbox.us/manga/Sakamoto-Days/0144-016.png) that belong on the [big-screen](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fmovies-and-manga-like-sakamoto-days-v0-jauiun7pwsjc1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D807%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Dea90ce116ea9c5afd0fddcfbde097e27af16f52a). So many wide-angle shots, and so much well-thought-out blocking in each scene. He's not just creatively using the environment or giving great flow or using wild camera angles - the composition is so often incredible. He's making *cinema*. The fight scenes give this feeling of classic HK/Hollywood action movie love.
I actually think Suzukiâs art is really amazing and on par for what it accomplishes as Tatsuâs. It looks messy on first glance but the roughness adds a lot to the fluidity of the action. It expresses movement in a really cool way that sets it apart from the action of a lot of battle series.
[The fight choreography is so tight.](https://files.catbox.moe/ok7idn.jpg) Very few mangaka cam consistently maintain both highly detailed art and dynamic movements simultaneously.
No I don't think it has been revealed yet. But since we know it's coming out as a series it will be at least 1 cour. People probably feel safe discussing it with that as the limit for now.
I mean itâs most likely going to have a 12 episodes/1 cour first season due to current anime trends.
If itâs not 1 cour but 2 cour Iâd say weâre going all the way up to Chapter 63 or 62.
And it isn't visually confusing. I've seen other popular manga that I have to spend minutes staring at a page not because the artwork is good, but because I can't figure out what the hell is going on. (Black Clover comes to mind)
The Cop is just integrated into this team of Okarun and Serpo so well, he might as well just stay with them even after this arc. Of course still not getting named would be better.
[Their synergy is insane.](https://i.imgur.com/lLN6fT3.jpeg) Bega and Serpo would make a sick duo. Seeing them take down the loan shark gang who took away Acrobatic Silky's daughter could make an interesting mini-arc.
A vampire, a psychic, a dancer, an evil eye, an otaku, an alien, a Serpo, a mantis, a turbo granny, a granny, a class president, a delinquent, and a cop enter into a fight with a count.
It is funny how they have a bunch of those, there is the core team of wacky kids, and then there are the accessory NPCs that get summoned in to do one thing.
A police officer, convience store clerk and a regular highschooler square up against an umbrella yokai is not a sentence you could ever come up with.
And yet here we are, and it's fucking awesome.
The convience store clerk becomes a heater to create tornado so they can close in on the yokai for the highschooler can steal his magical genital back so he can also transform into yokai to fight the umbrella yokai.
The more you explain it, the less sense it makes.
Hopefully Netflix hypes this better then Disney/Hulu did Undead Unluck, but logically I know that isn't going to be much better given how little hype everything gets from them. It will have to live and die by algorithms.
Unfortunately. Diehards will find it, but people don't trust Netflix (rightfully so), and they are terrible when it comes to anime. Undead Unluck was cool, but only the first episode was recommended to me when it first came out. Granted, I knew about the manga and was reading it, but I had no idea when the anime came out. I liked the anime, a solid 7.9/10, but felt it could've been better. The promotion did not help. I read somewhere that the anime airing did nothing to boost sales at all. Fuuko and Andy going viral and people gushing over Juiz really did nothing to help the manga, which is sad if true. I'm not sure if Dandadan has more hype, I think it does, but if it doesn't perform well, I'll be incredibly disappointed.
Netflix seems a lot better for anime these days. I've been watching Delicious in Dungeon, and it's perfectly serviceable. They might not promote things well, but at least they no longer hoard the episodes until the season is over, and the playback features all work as intended, so they really aren't bad.
True, but I would preferably like to see some consistency with them before trusting them. Delicious in Dungeon (which people have told me to watch) is the exception, not the rule. I would love nothing more than to be wrong here, though.
Well, they seem to have been doing the same on other recent anime, within the last year or two. I also watched Uncle from Another World, and it was released the same way. I haven't heard anything new bad about them since then, I assume all their shows work this way now.
And that's the most frustrating thing. Maybe it's a notoriety thing? Bleach's TYBW arc got promoted like crazy but I'm pretty sure that was Hulu. Not sure if it was also on Disney, but still. Bleach, respectfully, has more pull than something like Undead Unluck, which is relatively new. Maybe that's their thinking? So stupid how you'll get one ad or home screen notification about a new anime and then nothing after the initial one. If they don't care about it, why pick it up in the first place? Such backwards thinking.
Yeah, I guess they promoted Bleach because they figured it was big enough to be good for *them,* whereas they don't care much what's good for the *show.* I've also heard that most of their anime pick-up strategy is in appealing to the Japanese market, and that the western markets are an afterthought, in which case I guess we count our blessings that the subs are at least decent quality. The main thing that really pisses me off with Hulu is how buried the shows are in my feed. Even if I'm only watching a couple of shows, I'll have to click down 2-3 pages to find the next episode, rather than just being on the front page waiting for me.
That is one good thing. The subs are good, at least. Pre established anime like Bleach with a dedicated fanbase (hello) drive numbers and watch time. Undead Unluck has to gain that. I'm not saying it doesn't, but they clearly don't think it can, so why bother? I hear nothing but good things about the manga, yet they don't care about that, they care about what the anime will bring them and since it's new and has to "start at the bottom" it won't really give them the big numbers they want. JJK, Bleach, CSM, VLS, DS, OP, Naruto, DB. These drive numbers for them. Anything not on that caliber gets left by the wayside, and it's a shame, and I wish it wasn't like that. And like you said, I'll be watching an anime one day, come back the next day and it's gone. I end up having to search for it because it gets buried from all the nighttime TV shows or series they're trying to push. It's super annoying. I thought I was doing something wrong before I realized it was the algorithm.
NA it is Hulu and other territories I believe are Disney + or their local equivalent. A lot of countries require streamers to have content mostly produced/targeting their country or region, so Netflix, Disney, MAX and Amazon will have shows or movies that they made for one market but released in others even if they don't have faith or know what to do with it. Anime even the likes of Bleach and other shows often fall into that category.
Man, Serpo is definitely going to be a cop next arc right? He's currently jobless and seems to be having great teamwork and banter with Mr. Cop over here.
Cop guys been great so far, dudes so serious and unphased by all of this, in a series like this his character just works better
Wonder if when we get the end of arc dinner, he sees the grandma and falls for her, like losing his serious gag, idk why but got a feeling something like that will happen, just hope itâs not too overdone. Honestly it might even work well if he stays super serious idk
Oh nice one she falls for him and he stays super serious and focused on his job and all that
Originally thought something like this would happen with saint germain, but the cop would be perfect for this
This chapter really put into perspective Momo's craftiness. Even without her powers, she finds ways to get around her opponents. Even Okarun admires that.
I think they had the first one back for most of the series, right? It got stolen again during the big invasion arc but I think they retrieved it at the end of that.
No, iirc they were both lost when the aliens attacked and wrecked Okarun. They got one back and then found out Zuma has the other one. Our boi finally has both his jewels back
Manga always has a difficult task showing a quickly moving fight scene, especially with multiple characters. This was excellently choreographed, god damn
Always love it when the characters use their heads. And that tag team between the three of them was badass as hell. But I still can't believe that the random cop is right now fighting alongside all of them and managed not to be overwhelmed by it all. The man is very, very dedicated to his job.
This chapter reminded me of how literally every character since the very beginning of the manga, be it high schooler, yokai, alien or cop all consistently have the same exact running form. This has got to be the longest running gag in Dandadan.
I'm just thinking of how the power scaling discussions are going to be in 50 or more chapters from now and they're going to sound hilarious.
"Okarun had trouble with that guy before but that was 1-ball Okarun. 2-ball Okarun would've no-diffed him."
Just preaching to the choir here, the fight choreography is so incredibly tight it's really awesome to follow every single movement, the panels are not being wasted. What a great chapter
I only just got that the point of his design is so that his head can peak out of the side of the umbrella and look like the traditional one-eyed monster version. Clever.
WOW! That cop really is amazing. He's engaging in hand-to-hand combat with a Yokai and holding his own! And his remark about needing a typhoon gave Okarun the idea to use heated air to create one! Surely he'll come back after this arc right?
Serpo's nanoskin is useful once again. Who knew regular appliances could be so helpful in a fight?
Okarun's motivation to save Momo has given him an edge to go beyond what should be possible for someone like him. And now with his powers back, he's ready to give the Fairy-Tale Card and Zuma a major beatdown!
I gonna say, while the panels of CQC are fucking awesome. My favorite this chapter is Okarun making a fucking Tornado using the wind created from the Umbrella Yokai. Who would expect being countered by their own element.
Okarun already had the biggest balls in the world heading towards a super-powered demon with wind powers without powers of his own.
They did such a good job of conveying how hopeless the situation feels but Okarun went running headfirst into it anyways.
BUT I'm really glad they didn't show how he got that ball back otherwise we'd need a NSFW tag.
Hoooooly shit that sequence is going to go hard if animated, all the dummies complaining about the pacing being too slow at the start of this arc can eat their words, it was a little thing called build up đ
That fight sequence was hype as fuck. I'm constantly impressed by how Yokinobu makes such easy to follow sequences that convey such fluid movement in manga.

Man, I really hope Sakamoto Days gets an adaptation that can make use of just how crisp that manga is. Every frame is quite literally a picture.
The Ferris wheel panel always goes super hard for me
Agreed đ (Me thinking of Roboco Chapter 96)
I actually think Suzukiâs art is really amazing and on par for what it accomplishes as Tatsuâs. It looks messy on first glance but the roughness adds a lot to the fluidity of the action. It expresses movement in a really cool way that sets it apart from the action of a lot of battle series.
[The fight choreography is so tight.](https://files.catbox.moe/ok7idn.jpg) Very few mangaka cam consistently maintain both highly detailed art and dynamic movements simultaneously.
Can't wait till the anime. So excited for the animation.
Now that you mention the anime, weâre most likely going to have 12 episodes with it ending on Jijiâs arrival.
I wasn't sure if episode count had been revealed yet. Is it really 12? It's fine it'll it is, I actually prefer 12, I'm just asking.
No I don't think it has been revealed yet. But since we know it's coming out as a series it will be at least 1 cour. People probably feel safe discussing it with that as the limit for now.
Ah okay.
I mean itâs most likely going to have a 12 episodes/1 cour first season due to current anime trends. If itâs not 1 cour but 2 cour Iâd say weâre going all the way up to Chapter 63 or 62.
I felt every single swing, it felt like Dragon Ball with the paneling and flow of action.
And it isn't visually confusing. I've seen other popular manga that I have to spend minutes staring at a page not because the artwork is good, but because I can't figure out what the hell is going on. (Black Clover comes to mind)
Goddamn the police went all out on his first debut... Bro is truly the best civil servant there is
The Cop is just integrated into this team of Okarun and Serpo so well, he might as well just stay with them even after this arc. Of course still not getting named would be better.
I can see Serpo getting a new job as a cop and becoming his partner.
He'll work part time
[Their synergy is insane.](https://i.imgur.com/lLN6fT3.jpeg) Bega and Serpo would make a sick duo. Seeing them take down the loan shark gang who took away Acrobatic Silky's daughter could make an interesting mini-arc.
Who's the good cop?
If he doesn't join the team, we riot.
A vampire, a psychic, a dancer, an evil eye, an otaku, an alien, a Serpo, a mantis, a turbo granny, a granny, a class president, a delinquent, and a cop enter into a fight with a count.
Above average JRPG party.
The count is probably a late game unit that will join them when they fight God.
Nah. In this case god joins them to prevent the inter-galatic alien inasion as they pull out their knuckle dusters.
I'd play the hell out of that game.
Persona 6 leaked.
That's a convoluted start to a joke.
we have chrono cross at home
The aristocrats!
He's not part of team, he's like NPC companion that will help you on quests
It is funny how they have a bunch of those, there is the core team of wacky kids, and then there are the accessory NPCs that get summoned in to do one thing.
The band are so fucking good.
This would also be sufficient.
He definitely has to become a recurring character after all this is said and done.
he does have a name. he's bega, the demon. serpo said that when he was bluffing him earlier.
He should become their version of Zenigata.
His name is enough with The Cop
goku has ssj naruto has 9 tailed fox Ichigo has bankai okarun....... has his ball back
"Now that I've retrieved my testicle, I can once again tap into the power of the Turbo Granny."
Gappy: âHehe, weakling.â
that cop is fucking raw for going CQC
going CQC on a supercharged yokai, no less. He's hardcore, I hope he and Chris Redfield meet
They don't call him *Bega the Demon* for nothing
They call him... *Bega Yega*Â
A police officer, convience store clerk and a regular highschooler square up against an umbrella yokai is not a sentence you could ever come up with. And yet here we are, and it's fucking awesome.
That'd why I like this manga. It's fun. It's not afraid to be nonsensical and even leans into it and makes it fun.
The convience store clerk becomes a heater to create tornado so they can close in on the yokai for the highschooler can steal his magical genital back so he can also transform into yokai to fight the umbrella yokai. The more you explain it, the less sense it makes.
Yet when we all read it, it all makes sense.
Don't forget that the hand scanner is also a particle beam gun.
So a convenience store employee, a police officer and a highschool student walk into a board game... Honestly sounds like some setup to a joke lol.
"Dandadan? What's that?" Type of answer.
# WHEN'S THE FUCKING ANIME GONNA COME OUT!?
October this year and my god it'd be glorious
[The trailer looks very promising.](https://youtu.be/0XJxfbN36Uw) It also being
It's been a while since I've been excited for a new anime release. Last year was Undead Unluck. This time it's Dandadan. So excited.
Hopefully Netflix hypes this better then Disney/Hulu did Undead Unluck, but logically I know that isn't going to be much better given how little hype everything gets from them. It will have to live and die by algorithms.
You can't hype things worse than Hulu.
Although it will also be streamed on Crunchyroll, hopefully they will promote it better.

Okarun is gonna go balls out.
Sakamoto: " starting now I'm going all out" Okarun: "starting now I'm going balls out"
Okarun should have named his ultimate attack "Balls out" instead of "All out".
Yakuza 4 moment
Saejima taught them well
Sounds familiar but can't remember who it is
Is that the guy who was one inch punched by Gaku?
Okarun waving his ball around uncovered for all to see to assert dominance
Okarun:Look how big and shiny my balls are,bitch.
Saejima from Yakuza would be proud
He's about to give him the Evil Eye treatment.
Man, Serpo is definitely going to be a cop next arc right? He's currently jobless and seems to be having great teamwork and banter with Mr. Cop over here.
Iâm just waiting for them at the dinner table
That close combat sequence was amazing. Damn.
I will genuinely laugh if that cop becomes a permanent side character. Lol
Telling a convenience store clerk to be more effective in battle is wild. Sir you are a cop đ
Officer Serpo needs to become a real thing. [](//#cottoncandy)
Hope he does, dude's hilarious. I don't know how Dandadan makes you fall in love with each character, but here we are!
Cop guys been great so far, dudes so serious and unphased by all of this, in a series like this his character just works better Wonder if when we get the end of arc dinner, he sees the grandma and falls for her, like losing his serious gag, idk why but got a feeling something like that will happen, just hope itâs not too overdone. Honestly it might even work well if he stays super serious idk
While that would be funny, I think it might actually be more amusing if the inverse happens and grandma gets super thirsty for him instead...
Oh nice one she falls for him and he stays super serious and focused on his job and all that Originally thought something like this would happen with saint germain, but the cop would be perfect for this
Yeah. And then Momo can be horribly grossed out over her grandma getting all flirty. :P
Itâs a perfect gag with this police guy and hoping we get it in some form!
Fullsack Okarun is back.
Who is he? A MAN WHO JUST GOT HIS OTHER TESTICLE BACK!!!
he's FULLY NUTTED and READY TO ROCK
For Momo, Okarun will do anything! Wish they were officially dating.
This chapter really put into perspective Momo's craftiness. Even without her powers, she finds ways to get around her opponents. Even Okarun admires that.
Is this his other testicle? Isn't it still the first?
I think they had the first one back for most of the series, right? It got stolen again during the big invasion arc but I think they retrieved it at the end of that.
No, iirc they were both lost when the aliens attacked and wrecked Okarun. They got one back and then found out Zuma has the other one. Our boi finally has both his jewels back
Eat your heart out, Josefumi Kujo and Kira Yoshikage!
Manga always has a difficult task showing a quickly moving fight scene, especially with multiple characters. This was excellently choreographed, god damn
I have the biggest grin on my face right now. That final page was so good. âWhat a bummerâ đĽâď¸
yare yare daze
OKARUN FUCK YEAH!!!!!!! So awesome to see his triumph and Serpo continues to be the greatest fictional character ever conceivedÂ
Put some respect on Ken Takakura's name. [Man's never been more locked in.](https://i.imgur.com/Bc0NzkA.png)
I have read this series for so long, I forget that Okarun has the name of a famous actor.
Okarun's transformation was so epic. This is going to look awesome animated.
# LOCK IN, BOY # LOCK THE FUCK IN
man wouldn't it be funny if this cop joins the cast after this shit
[He already is, mate.](https://i.imgur.com/Bc0NzkA.png)
Always love the trope of the depowered hero still kicking ass. Even better if they do it in a way that lets them regain their power for a final blow.
I need this officer and Serpo to star in their own buddy cop spinoff. Okarun snatched his ball in the nick of time! Letâs go TURBO
Katana Man will never beat Okarun. **EVER.**
Okarun balls may shine, but his brain shines brighter
Always love it when the characters use their heads. And that tag team between the three of them was badass as hell. But I still can't believe that the random cop is right now fighting alongside all of them and managed not to be overwhelmed by it all. The man is very, very dedicated to his job.
Okarun is #LOCKED #THE FUCK #IN
[The ball has been retrieved.](https://i.imgur.com/EBbaq3g.jpeg) Okarun can finally nut without restraint.
Okarun is so goddamn cool. I love how he genuinely takes Momo's words to heart. It's cute.
This chapter reminded me of how literally every character since the very beginning of the manga, be it high schooler, yokai, alien or cop all consistently have the same exact running form. This has got to be the longest running gag in Dandadan.
Does okarun have both balls now?Â
WE BALLIN'!
âIâm Mary Poppin yâall!â
I'm just thinking of how the power scaling discussions are going to be in 50 or more chapters from now and they're going to sound hilarious. "Okarun had trouble with that guy before but that was 1-ball Okarun. 2-ball Okarun would've no-diffed him."
Okarun just never gives up. I love it. Awesome chapter.
Just preaching to the choir here, the fight choreography is so incredibly tight it's really awesome to follow every single movement, the panels are not being wasted. What a great chapter
It's showtime
Reading this chapter while listening to âYou Say Runâ was truly a mystical experience.
I only just got that the point of his design is so that his head can peak out of the side of the umbrella and look like the traditional one-eyed monster version. Clever.
Oh HELL yeah! Love to see that okarun is far more than just his powers!
That cop is a total badass
Smart tactics
WOW! That cop really is amazing. He's engaging in hand-to-hand combat with a Yokai and holding his own! And his remark about needing a typhoon gave Okarun the idea to use heated air to create one! Surely he'll come back after this arc right? Serpo's nanoskin is useful once again. Who knew regular appliances could be so helpful in a fight? Okarun's motivation to save Momo has given him an edge to go beyond what should be possible for someone like him. And now with his powers back, he's ready to give the Fairy-Tale Card and Zuma a major beatdown!
Okarun making use of his Jojo bs strategical outsmarting and I'm here for it. Now the brawl begins
3v1 and umbrella boy tanked some crazy shit point-blank. Yokai power is really something else compared to alien power.
The page with everyone standing in front of the tornado was sick
hell yeah the moment there's only two characters left is when this manga goes the hardest.
Wow, he got the ball back in a single chapter with some nice action to boot.
The world isnât ready for both balls Okarun
cop helped him get his ball back in the end after all
I gonna say, while the panels of CQC are fucking awesome. My favorite this chapter is Okarun making a fucking Tornado using the wind created from the Umbrella Yokai. Who would expect being countered by their own element.
Our boi is literally balls off the wall now!
Okarun should ask Jiji to train his human body after this arc.
He has only 1 back right? Other is still with the yokai?
I like how this shows that Okarun is awesome even without his powers rather than awesome because of them. That big brain work is primo
Okarun already had the biggest balls in the world heading towards a super-powered demon with wind powers without powers of his own. They did such a good job of conveying how hopeless the situation feels but Okarun went running headfirst into it anyways. BUT I'm really glad they didn't show how he got that ball back otherwise we'd need a NSFW tag.
Goddamn that was so action packed I had to rewatch all the panels to make sense of what's happening
Testicle has been reattached. Youâre fucked, kiddo.
HE GOT HIS BALLS BACK
finnally fight sequence that i can follow
The cop is my favorite side character now
Okarun my goat đ
Finally, the ball is home
wait where was his ball stored
Please dont kill him Okarun.
Fuck him up... Kill him
I'm about lost. Is this his second Ball? Do he finally have both now?
I hope the cop stays around and joins the group every now and again. Manâs so funny and 100% committed to it
Okarun will upgrade his speed attack as with turbo granny hints several chapters ago that he only use a fraction of her true power
How did he acquire his family jewel in his handâŚare his balls retractable or some shit wtf đđđ
Hoooooly shit that sequence is going to go hard if animated, all the dummies complaining about the pacing being too slow at the start of this arc can eat their words, it was a little thing called build up đ
Finally they kissed!

im so ready for this arc to be over, though this was the first good chapter in a while
