- The episode shows a glimpse of Jiji’s Yokai form for the first time
The thrilling conclusion of Dandadan Season 1 has left fans eagerly awaiting the next chapter. The season finale ended on a dramatic cliffhanger, with Okarun, Momo, and Jiji heading to Jiji’s house to exorcise a ghost responsible for hospitalizing Jiji’s parents and targeting him as well. This ghost’s sinister nature has set the stage for the highly anticipated “Evil Eye” arc in Season 2.
The episode begins with Okarun, Momo, and Jiji traveling to Jiji’s house, a location brimming with eerie tension. Okarun, who initially viewed Jiji as a rival, begins to see him as a friend due to their shared interest in aliens. This budding camaraderie brings a layer of emotional depth to the series and sets the tone for their teamwork against the supernatural threats that await them.
The ghost tormenting Jiji is quite a different spirit from those preceding, such as the morally ambiguous Acrobatic Silky. This emanates a purity of malice and is thus an enemy far more formidable and unpredictable than its predecessors. Momo also leaves Jiji and Okarun alone in the house, hoping to allow Okarun to cultivate a meaningful friendship with Jiji. The two go through the house and come across a secret room, which looks like a ghostly veil, a foreboding omen of the horrors within. Momo, meanwhile, finds herself battling a group of weird ghosts who call themselves “alligators.”
Fans are left with burning questions: How will Momo defend herself? What type of ghost resides within the mysterious veil? And what secrets does Jiji’s household have? These unanswered questions have heightened anticipation for Season 2, which promises to animate the “Cursed House” arc, one of the series’ most popular and intense storylines.
Dandadan Season 2 will give viewers more insight into the nature of Jiji, revealing even more about Okarun’s potential and his powers growing even further. The anticipation for Season 2 has never been this high after Season 1, as the ground story is very interesting, along with great animation. As fans speculate and eagerly await the return of Dandadan, it’s clear that the upcoming season will deliver action, suspense, and emotional depth, solidifying the series’ place as a standout in the anime world.
