Three episodes into Dandadan: will the animation style split opinions
Are you excited about the new anime adaptation of "Dandadan"? We got a sneak peek at the first three episodes and the accompanying documentary. Let's dive into what makes this anime a must-watch for the fall season.
What is "Dandadan"?
"Dandadan" is a popular manga that combines supernatural elements with a quirky storyline. The plot revolves around a boy, Okarun, who loves occult science fiction and a girl, Momo, who believes in ghosts and exorcists. Their worlds collide, leading to some hilarious and dangerous adventures.
Unique Animation Style
The animation is handled by Science Saru, known for their unique and experimental style. Expect some unusual angles, body deformations, and visual experimentation. This studio has a history of delivering visually stunning work, and "Dandadan" is no exception.
