The teaser offers a glimpse of what’s to come, showcasing Momo Ayase, Ken Takakura (Okarun), and Jin Enjoji (Jiji) as they prepare to face even greater threats. With the sinister Evil Eye looming in the background, the stakes are clearly set to rise. As Dandadan fans eagerly await the sequel, here’s a breakdown of what’s been revealed so far and what to expect in season 2.

What Will Dandadan Season 2 Cover?

Adapted Manga Arcs

Season 2 is expected to pick up directly where season 1 left off, diving into the Cursed House Arc, Evil Eye Arc, and the highly anticipated Kaiju Arc.

  • Cursed House Arc: This storyline centers on Jiji’s return to his haunted home, where he confronts the malevolent spirit possessing him. This arc not only expands on Jiji’s character but also sets the stage for the supernatural threats that follow.
  • Evil Eye Arc: Building on the ominous hints from the PV, this arc focuses on the malevolent Evil Eye, bringing new challenges for Momo and Okarun.
  • Kaiju Arc: Introducing the mysterious antagonist Bamora, this arc escalates the narrative with a colossal kaiju threat, blending supernatural horror with adrenaline-fueled battles.

Season 2 Episode Expectations

If season 2 follows the same structure as its predecessor, it is likely to feature 12 episodes. These episodes could cover up to Chapter 73 of Yukinobu Tatsu’s manga, further solidifying the anime’s faithful adaptation.

The Title Origins of Dandadan, Explained

There are many fans who wonder exactly what the title of Dandadan means. There have been a few hints that might give a glimpse into its origins.

By 

The original voice cast, including Shion Wakayama as Momo and Natsuki Hanae as Okarun, is expected to return. Science Saru, the studio behind the visually dynamic first season, has not yet confirmed whether the same creative team will helm the sequel. However, fans are hopeful that director Fuga Yamashiro and composer Kensuke Ushio will return to maintain the anime’s signature style and energy.

Scheduled for a July 2025 release, Dandadan season 2 will air in Japan on the Super Animeism Turbo block and will likely stream simultaneously on global platforms like Crunchyroll and Netflix, as was with the first season.
