I honestly hate the ending but only because it is a cliffhanger and I am inpatient. PS I am not a fan of "Onsen" videos. wink...

I'm thinking they didn't expect this show to pop off as hard as it did, hence it's only 1 cour and we gotta wait, cuz that was hardly an ending (though apparently this is how the volume ended aswell?)

if it's really only a twelve episode season then it has a dirty cliffhanger

REALLY loved this series but I really hate that it ended while leaving Momo in that situation... I'm worried for her :/

In general, my one gripe with the series is how many times the teen girls like Momo and the pink haired girl get put into situations where they're naked or it's implied they're about to be sexually assaulted or r*ped like I just dont fw that. I could maybe get it for plot reasons (like the first ep) but it's used too often as a plot device. Just my opinion as a girl myself those parts made me viscerally uncomfortable. It's like every alien/ghost wants to r*pe the girls... like why?

I literally love love love everything else about the series & i can't wait for part 2. Okarun x Momo

Thankfully I saw the announcement for season 2 before I even started the final ep, haha! Otherwise, I would’ve been so confused with the cliff-hanger at the end, lol 😂
@M1kasaYu1 yeah, but now we have to wait for 7 months.

pretty fun anime until jiji showed up
not having read the manga i gotta say im definitely worried he's going to be a regular?

Or will there be less of him as time goes on cuz he's just annoying af.
Anime was much better with just momo & ken
@Romeo

Yeah I feel this way too. I thought the show was amazing until jiji was introduced. He reminds me a lot of Dorito guy from Demon Slayer with his over exagerated faces. Kinda funny, I was neutral about Dorito guy despite him getting a lot of flak from the whole commmunity, but I find Jiji just too obnoxious. Hope his personality shifts for the better on season 2.

Not bad, considering that it serves only as a cliffhanger ending to Season 1 and a teaser for Season 2.

@ZER0PT What do you mean episodic and no real story? Bro you call it basic shounen and then don't even know what that is? Did Bleach have a real story 12 episodes in or was it slice of life and monster of the day? Did Naruto have one (reminder that Zabuza was episode 15/16 and no main enemy or story was shown yet)? It has already enough hints were the story is going. Just give it time to develop if you personally don't see it yet.

Most people can tell already that this will be great, but it is still in the character introduction and world building phase. Bleach had a very similar and lenghty approach but DanDaDan is doing it even better.
@Katzenjunge I'm judging based on the first 12 episodes.
It can get better or worse later. For now it's a 7/10 with nothing that really stand out imo.

Uhhh that's it? Are they really ending this season that abruptly? That was weird.

In any case, I'm liking the series, it's got a good mix of snappy action and cool hip tracks that make the battles feel much more visually packed and interesting. The alien and spirit part is a good excuse for the author to go in full creative mode and make not only the monsters have weird quirks and powers but also transformations and that add to the stupidness of it all. I'm not keen on the romance aspect just yet and I feel like some characters like Aira and Ken suffer because of it. Momo is the one with the most expressions and that makes the plot move forward and Jiji provides a good balance by being both energetic, funny and positive.

From the cover of season 2 I'm guessing this spa isn't gonna be just a mini arc and will actually be quite relevant, right? We'll see.

Thought it was a weird way to end season 1.

It probably should of had only 10-11 episodes instead

The Okarun and Jiji singing and dancing scene was funny. The fact that everyone begged Seiko to let the female anatomy model live in their house was hilarious. I wonder why turbo granny and Jiji were wrestling with each other.

Jiji is so cute. I love him. Jiji and Okarun getting to know each other was really wholesome. Why did Okarun not mention the rustling bushes?

Everyone in the town seems sus af. The hot spring part made me extremely uncomfortable. I would dare say that scene is so much worse than the one in episode 1. I wish Aira would've gone with them so Silky could've helped out. Or have Okarun and Jiji come with her. Or at least Jiji because he probably knew it was coed. The manager should've mentioned it was coed.

Damn everyone is complaining about the fact that it ended on a cliffhanger. Those same people are the ones who bitch about the drop in production. Also from what I gathered the next arc is 20 chapters long so they had to end it here. If you're so pressed, go read the manga. I'm tired of the constant complaining.

For right now this is 10/10 for me. I loved watching this anime, it was a real treat and quite refreshing to be honest. Momo and Okarun made a great pair, the story was both hilarious and emotional at times. I can't really say I hated anything about this season. The animation was phenomenal and I loved all the purposefully done silly faces. This anime truly lived up to its hype (unlike CSM and JJK lol)

What a terrible place to end a season. Season 2 will air in about 7 months and they leave us hanging in the middle of an arc, as if anyone's gonna remember where we left off by that time.

Mystery 10/10, Suspense 10/10, Intrigue 10/10. This season was light-hearted introduction to the world with entry-level exploration of dark plot lines. This narrative was accompanied by incredible artsyle with fluid motions and fast pacing, while still keeping an arc-based format which is not easy to come by. My expectations for season 2 have now skyrocketed past what I thought possible due to the amazing execution of season 1's adaptation. Overall amazing 10/10 display.

Absolutely horrendous ending of an otherwise decent show. Really tried to enjoy it but the quality felt like it kept dropping gradually past episode seven. From a 10/10 to a 9/10 to ultimately a 7/10, this show kept managing to somehow show me how mediocre it could get.

Never liked Jiji in the manga and feel even more dislike having to hear him so I find his presence grating. Other than that I have loved this show, will even accept the abrupt end to the season. This might even end up being my fav anime of the year, still need to start Re:Zero, only possible that has chance of dethroning Dandadan for me I think.

The ending sort of dropped it from a 9 to an 8 for me. ideally Id go 7.5 but you guys dont have that rating and its been a better show for me than a 7 so Imma give it an 8 since it has been really entertaining for me all season. The highlight of the season was for sure the acrobatic silky episode. That was a tear jerker and probably the best 25 minutes of content id seen all year aside from the Frieren vs clone Frieren episode. They then followed that up with the best action episode of the season against the aliens and ゴジラ(nessie) fight WOW.

That said....I think it must be made known thst I am NOT ok with sexualizing a 15 year old, no matter what medium....Momo getting sexually assaulted not once but TWICE and her getting choked under water naked...never understood the need for those scenes and how they were made to come across

the whole thing started with a grape attempt and ended at that.Such a cliffhanger.Iam impressed the two boys befriended each other .I would have prefered they talked more about their past than bicker about love interest.Honestly we don't have much data about their familial past except a bit of Momo.Imo Jiji's jolly attitude might be an induced compensation due to the turn of events in his family and his insomnia.Would be interesting how they proceed in s2.Eagerly waiting for it

Finished Dandadan season 1. Excellent adaptation. They nailed all the characters moments and the animation was phenomenal. My only complaint is that they had to end in the middle of an arc. It’s a shame this couldn’t be 24 episodes, but at least the animators have a good schedule with this show. I just love the characters so much in Dandadan and it’s been great to see all their personalities flourish on screen. 9/10 for me.

I just wonder if cour 2 is going to start with Okarun warping through Momo's cell phone again to get to the hot spring and rescue her.

Seriously wtf was up with that? Of all the things that were left unexplained, that one bothers me the most. Turbo Granny can just warp through cell phones? And this power is somehow never used again? Make it make sense!

I dropped from 9 to 7 without mercy. They need to learn not to use these things just to vary their impact and gain visibility. The anime didn't need of this stupid strategy.

Bit of an awkward way to end season 1 in my opinion, would've prefered it they wrapped things up in a better way.

Hope that in season 2 I won't have to watch any more assaults against Momo or anyone else, they're not needed at all, they're just uncomfortable, I know that's the point but there could've been better ways to add the creepy factor

I agree with you completely. They urgently need to learn to stop this.

When one of my best friends linked me a moment from this final episode that he told me was amazing, i correctly decided to not spoil myself and wait for my first day off job to finish the series. Oh, yeah, the boys randomly singing Slam Dunk ED and OP was in fact the highlight of the highlights. Especially since... the episode and show altogether had a way too sudden conclusion.

Okarun with all his flaws and insecurity still >> Jiji for now, even with a justification for a very different amount of screentime so far. In hindsight, i realized i wouldn't have enjoyed the show as much as most people, even if i didn't dislike it at all too, it's no less than a 7/10 and will return for season 2 even if not with the same anticipation of this one.
Momo is undeniably my favorite character, a relatable badass main lead that always stayed likable.
