Aliens ghoststhings like this arent real but if weve got to choose between them which one would we choose? Which one do we prefer to believe in and encourage others to believe in? If we had to make someone believe the nonsense what would you have done? Did you drag him or her to a haunted house or somewhere far unnatural? Anyway this argument cant be ended without any unexpected experience. A mixed feeling between curiosity and fear makes the whole thing more exciting as if the heart would be blasted by the sound of a heartbeat. 258https://images.squarespacecdn.com/content/v1/57825361440243db4a4b7830/d05546795a4c41dfa8097dd947275958/2419475449941075347691052110452431417499396n.jpg 220https://pbs.tw.com/media/E7RuQXSXoAARZbw.jpg Yeah Dandadan or DandaDan is what remembers your agile youthful mistakesome forgotten memories. Then if someone asks for the meaning of Dandadan what answer could there be other than the sound of youthful frightened heartbeats or the resemblance of a horrified thing? Whatever it is at least we know it wont be something normal or simple. My first encounter with or impression of this manga was around May of 23. Actually when I was sick and bed resting I saw my brother was reading some manga the whole day and night. It was Dandadan. He almost caught up in a day. After I got well I asked and learned that it was Dandadan. But it didnt excite me to read the manga. Eventually constant pressure from my brother and at a point he literally forced me to read but also the surprising WTF panels and the unique arts are what make me interested. Then I started reading Dandadan and really felt worthy of investing my time. The mangaka of the manga Dandadan Yukinobu Tatsu really puts all the experience into the manga. Yukinobu Tatsu was the assistant of Hells Paradise and Chainsaw Man two of the most popular and erotic Shounen manga. In the first chapter we saw that Momo and Ken were attacked by aliens and ghosts. In most of the manga we are familiar with the characters or protagonists trying to avoid this unnatural phenomenon but as he Yukinobu Tatsu worked under Tatsuki Fujimoto and Yuuji Kaku taking experience from them both Momo and Ken tried to coexist or sort something out of the situation which differs this manga from others. Now if I come to the story part there isnt much to mention particularly. But I should give an idea of the story. Hmm one believes that aliens are real and the other believes ghosts are real. The conflict between their beliefs led them to their first adventure. And here were talking about ghosts and aliens so its obvious that they have to be held somehow in a hunted or darker place that normal people usually try to avoid. But these two are stubborn idiots they have to prove their point and thats how they go into their biggest tragedy.400https://i.post.cc/zBz7yc6M/31748855420446255390678568193976204431521100n.jpgThats how its all started. Throughout the story and adventures these two are met with different people ghosts and aliens some remain strangers and enemies and some become their friends. The dining table got more and more lively. And so on... 450https://i.post.cc/rmwGVtt2/Screenshot20240201142025.png Finally the illustrations and the manga covers are really good and unique. Especially the covers are really colorful and vivid. There are some of my favorite covers from Dandadan below:230https://i.post.cc/zv3kjRJF/dandadanvol69781974742837hr.jpg 220https://i.post.cc/cJZMzzxH/Screenshot20240201142441.png The illustrations are not bland at all and the storks are so defined which makes the panel really clearlooking. Sometimes the panels get disturbing but not as much as in Berserk or Junji Itos manga. Mainly the disturbing thing is the alien and ghost design. 320https://i.post.cc/vTjtSHTF/DNDGN01096097.jpg 320https://i.post.cc/DfY6z5gj/DandadanChapter12712.jpg 320https://i.post.cc/ncy14zNq/ilovewidepanelshotsinmangav0s48zuxqfh47b1.jpg By the way the character design is what is worth mentioning. The protagonist Momo whose hair color is deep red and her grandmother are the most surprising things in the manga. The action sequence or motions are quite different but they were so well drawn that I hadnt had any trouble understanding what was going on in the panel. Overall the illustrations and everything else are very entertaining and energetic. In closing Dandadan is a fastpaced manga with unnatural plots and I think it is also enjoyable for every reader. I highly recommend everyone read this peak manga. Especially because its going to get an adaptation in fall 24 its the perfect moment to read. I can also bet that if you guys start reading its so addictive that you cant easily stop yourself from reading. Thats all. Thank you so much for reading the review so far. Enjoy.
