The 12th and final episode of the Dandadan television anime series announced a second season and revealed a visual (pictured) on Friday. The anime is scheduled to premiere in July 2025 on MBS and TBS' Super Animeism TURBO programming block.

Produced by Science SARU, the first season began airing on October 4. Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Hulu are simulcasting the anime with subtitles and dubs in multiple languages. GKIDS licensed the anime in North America. A movie composed of the first three episodes was released in theaters in Asia on August 31, Europe on September 7, and North America on September 13.

The anime adapts Yukinobu Tatsu's action supernatural manga manga which began Shounen Jump+ in April 2021. Shueisha published the 17th volume on November 1. The manga has a cumulative 3.2 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in February 2022. The tenth volume went on sale on December 17, with the 11th volume scheduled for a February 4 release. Shueisha is also publishing the manga in English on its Manga Plus website and app.

The fact that Tatsu-san's entire decision for the series was:
I had always wanted to draw a boys’ manga with a girl as the main character but it kept failing in serialization meetings, so I thought it would be better to have a boy next to her. I thought that there has never been a boys’ manga with a girl as the main character, and I thought that just by having a girl as the main character, the conflicts would change in many ways and patterns.

Tatsu has also revealed that Okarun was a crucial character to enhance Momo’s likability, which was a clever choice as the duo has captured fans’ hearts.

Just makes me even more excited for Season 2 and the ongoing publishing for the series.

Really wish S1 was continuing with another 12 episodes so it doesn't end at the start of a new arc, but this is good news nonetheless.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

@ZXEAN its not all or nothing we know from various news that majority of anime production have overwork and under staff pipeline heck they are using outsourcing heavily and using amateur twitter animators most of the time this days there is a reason nafca was formed https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2024-12-02/.218298

@deg

That is not always the case, shows that get finished ahead of time doesn't always have good planning/scheduling, especially when considering the tight window Science Saru has with this and their other highly demanding projects within the next few years. Netflix requests episodes ahead of time for the sake of dubbing them into other languages, it is by no means an indication of a healthy schedule.

@deg If you go looking through the credits of this show, you'll see what I'm trying to say. You'll be surprised aside from Ep.7, not a single episode had a good production schedule. Episode 7 was an outlier. Almost like its own separate short movie like JJK S2 ep.16 Each episode has 10s of ADs and 50-60+ 2KA being on the show since ep. 1. You'll be surprised to know that the credits look worse than JJK S2 and we all know how bad that went.

They completed the production. YES. But, that didn't mean that the show actually had a healthy production at all. It's completely the opposite, They rushed it for the FALL release completing the first 12 episodes, and then split the next 12 for the Summer release. It wouldn't have been the case if the production was healthy.

@deg if you'll rewatch the show, you'll notice quite a lot of irregularities and melting since the very earlier episodes. I'm hoping things get even a bit slightly better for Cour 2. Tho, I doubt it.

Is that the only thing going on your mind when it comes to fiction? For a man, you're oddly obsessed with shipping. Are you even a real man? Do you have low T or perhaps have klinefelter syndrome? Because that explains things. Bet you fantasized about Lelouch fucking CC, Light fucking Misa, Eren fucking Mikasa, and the kids from Made in Abyss having sex nonstop. Because it explains things. Do you care about story, or characters, or voice acting, or directing, or animation, or literally anything relevant to any series that isn't goddamn shipping?

@EddieJones4788 Asking if a fictional teenager is a virgin is pretty odd, no? She’s a normal teen, not some random old prostitute who fucked a gorillion men lmao. And it’s a shounen, so there’s no way in hell one would feature a male or female lead who fucked 3849596040589 people, so rest assured.

God bless. I really loved this show, so I was afraid that we would either not get a second season or would have to wait a very long time for it.

@MsRiaCayde Thank you, it’s always interesting to read about how certain series were developed. Do I understand correctly that Okarun was not originally intended, but now the author is glad that he came up with such a character?

@IzayoiSk Just don't react to it. I’m just used to the fact that for a dude, any anime is exclusively fetish content.
