| It was a dope introduction to an already intriguing and charming anime. Creepy Nuts of course delivered as well as the memes. The cross examination between the aliens and spirits was interesting too, a detail most will overlook. Overall 4.5/5 :) |

| Crazy first episode, felt so random I dig it! |
| This anime really felt like a Trigger anime. I dig how random it was. |
| Well that was certainly an eventful first episode. Seems to be one of those shows which are better if you just turn your brain off and don't expect realistic characters or a consistent plot. Might still be fun though. |
| Starting the episode with a small debate between someone who believes in the existence of living beings out there (such as aliens) and someone who believes in the existence of supernatural beings (such as ghosts). To prove their respective beliefs, they challenge each other to go to places that are considered haunted or places that are considered inhabited by aliens. Momo Ayase believes in ghosts, so she goes to a place that is considered the "headquarter" of aliens. Meanwhile, Ken Takakura believes in aliens, so he goes to a "haunted" place. When visiting these places, each of them felt afraid even though it was not in accordance with what they believed. However, this fear needs to be overcome in order to prove their beliefs. In two different places, they both encountered creatures that did not match their beliefs. First, Ken meets a mysterious figure that is quite scary, often referred to as Turbo Ghost, while Momo meets a group of aliens who call themselves Serpoian. Of course, after seeing such a terrifying figure, Ken ran, but the result was that he was hit by the Turbo Ghost curse. After meeting a group of aliens, Momo was about to be raped by the aliens. Suddenly, right before Momo was poked, her cellphone rang and Ken's figure emerged from the cellphone in the form of a Turbo Ghost curse. Ken, who was there, helped save Momo by fighting the aliens. Ken succeeded in overthrowing some of the Serpoians, but Ken was unable to finish the last one. Well, what was quite surprising was that Momo suddenly awakened her psychic powers. Anyways, at the end we were shown that the name of the boy who was often bullied was Ken Takakura. You know what? His name is exactly the same as the idol, Momo's favorite, who is also named Ken Takakura. |

| Lol, both of alien and ghost are pervert XD |

| ....HOW I ENDED UP WATCHING A 2024 ANIME?? IT'S VERY WEIRD FOR ME BUT I HAD TO WATCH DANDADAN BROS, IT LOOKS LIKE THE TYPE OF SHIT I LOVE IN ALL OF JAPANESE MEDIA SO I WAS THINKING " WHY DON'T YA SEE IT?" BECAUSE I'M VERY LAZY FOR WATCHING NEW ANIME BECUASE THE STORY ISN'T ENDED, AND IT GATEKEEPS ME THAT THE ANIME I WATCH DON'T HAVE A FINAL YET. BUT NOW, PEOPLE, ALL OF YOU MINA, I'M PART OF THIS HYPE WAVE, AND I CAN CONFIRM, NO... I DON'T HESITATE IN SAYING THAT WATCHING DANDADAN WAS ONE OF THE BEST DECISION I MADE IN THE ENTIRE YEAR. THANK YOU, SOCIAL PRESSURE!!! |

Meh. Imo the only good part of this episode was the name reveal. It felt all over the place with no writing nor development. It never introduced to characters in a way we could really get to know them, as if we jumped into episode 5 of an anime, it kept time skipping all over the place, like how did they end up in the two locations and know where they were? They always believed these places existed but never went despite wanting to prove that? The backstories are horribly placed. For more emotional appeal it should have been in a later episode as we already know the characters, but now we are digging deeper into something we didn’t know about them that puts us to tears. I couldn’t cry at all with these backstories and most backstories get me, so that says a lot. Animation, looks like they want more motion but also cut frames for that so it’s a bit choppy with absolutely no shading on them besides their noses (I might just be picky here). Unless someone can tell me the writing gets better and story develops without skipping all over the place unexplained, I’m thinking this is one of the very few anime I’ll have to drop on episode 1.
LordAtsukiYoru said: I might just be picky here No you are not. it's just that people don't have the proper mindset to see these problems and like the anime just because the hype influenced them or an influencer. The animation is a toned down version of the Bones studios animation with even less attention to detail. |
| I should have started this sooner. Really like the vibes so far even though the color pallet with lack of shading i am not sure I like but i dont hate that either since it looks good in some scenes |

| The last ep will be released next week, time to watch the hottest new anime of this season... Dandadan! Boom, the first thing that jumped up was the OP by Creepy Nuts and what a banger it is, they always have a way of making their songs catchy with a beat that fits the theme of the show. I was temporarily elevated to a realm of enlightenment at that softer melodic part of the OP, genuinely fantastic! The ED doesn't lose out either IMO, while the visuals aren't as bombastic and vibrant as the OP was, it still got the energy led by the peculiar Neko-spirit character, and the bass and guitar instrumental scratched the itch in my brain. Starting off with a delinquent girl, the heroine Momo bummed off her mind after dumping her ex-boyfriend that was only a boyfriend cuz he apparently looked similar to the actor Takakura Ken. Not sure exactly when this story is set in but Momo and her friends have that older gyaru fashion going on. Speaking of which, wow, Momo is really expressive, both in her character and her actual facial expression, enough with trying to be cute through over-exaggerated cutesy acts, Momo is cute as much as she's passionate about her standing. However, that passion is also the cause of her and Takakura Ken's many problems. Their chance encounter leads to a separate challenge to prove that Ghost and Aliens are real respectively. This only happened because both Momo and Takakura Ken are so adamant about their beliefs, this along with how they are able to interact so carefreely with one another makes for an interesting dynamic to see. What comes next is nothing short of obnoxious hilarity... A cursed turbo-granny ghost that offers to have her tits suckled in exchange for letting her suck dicks and A bunch of aliens that wish to reproduce by abducting a female human Oh yeah... This show is looking to be really fun to watch! It's intriguing that the title and the ending part of the ep when Ken reveals his name to Momo alludes to the more romantic aspect of this show. Although Takakura Ken chased after Momo because he wanted to have a friend instead of staying a loner, his actions, personality and name itself are all exactly the kind of characteristics Momo sought for a boyfriend. She's low-key into him. |
