Synopsis

After being aggressively rejected, Momo Ayase finds herself sulking when she stumbles across a boy being bullied. Saved by her rash kindness, the occult-obsessed boy attempts to speak to her about supernatural interests he believes they share. Rejecting his claims, Ayase proclaimed that she instead is a believer in ghosts, starting an argument between the two over which is real.

In a bet to determine who is correct, the two decide to separately visit locations associated with both the occult and the supernatural—Ayase visiting the former and the boy visiting the latter. When the two reach their respective places, it turns out that neither was wrong and that both the occult and ghosts do exist.

This marks the beginning of Ayase and the boy's adventure, as they attempt to fix the surreal, supernatural, and occult elements around them to return to a normal life.

Preliminary (178/? eps)
I guess my rating is someone based on a more shonen scale, meaning it wouldn't really hold up to seinen titles with the same rating.

I was pretty shocked with how much I enjoyed this manga. I was not a big fan of the anime, but for whatever reason, the humor actually landed for me in the manga. The story is pretty damn good too, especially after the first twenty chapters or so. I was really surprised to see what happens after season one. Season two should be amazing. That being said, it's not perfect, it still falls into those shonen pitfalls of not going ...

Dandadan started off strong - very strong. Unfortunately, it fell off pretty quickly and completely stagnated several volumes ago. After 85 chapters, I've completely lost interest in this manga and frankly view it as overhyped.

The visual storytelling can't compete with really great mangas in my opinion and an intriguing overarching story is basically nonexistent at this point. The story has become boring, episodic and increasingly silly (not the good kind) and some narrative asspulls left me scratching my head and even feeling betrayed, because they are so atrociously stupid and anticlimactic. There's a fine line between absurd and outright stupid - Dandadan has clearly ...

I truly don't get anime fans and their craving for random shit. Dandadan is just random for the sake of being random, and this is what people see as a masterpiece? I can write a story like that as well, bruh.

This manga is the absurdity of Chainsaw Man coupled with the monsters and horniness of GantZ. It has toilet humor and a decent artstyle (not my personal cup of tea but I respect it). There my compliments end. I seriously don't understand what people find good about this manga. Yeah okay, it's funny I guess: haha his peepee is gone. "Gobble your schlong!". But story-wise? ...
