A lot of fans had been speculating as to when the first season of Dandadan was going to end, and as it turns out, it ends right in the middle of the Evil Eye arc with Jiji.
With the cliffhanger ending, Netflix has spared no time announcing that a second season is already in production, and it’s set to come out in July next year. Check out the trailer:
The official description reads:
As Momo, Okarun, and Turbo Granny investigate what happened to Jiji’s family, they find themselves facing a series of bizarre encounters!
By the looks of the trailer, there is only a look at the rest of the Evil Eye arc, with the creeps that haunt the hot spring as well as the origin of the Evil Eye and its relationship with Jiji. By the time the second season comes around, anyone who has read the manga is already expecting the introduction of other members of Momo and Okarun’s group like Kinta and Vamola. It may be a while before class rep Rin is given her major arc.
With Chainsaw Man expected to make a comeback next year with the Reze Arc movie, fans are also expecting some kind of big film for Dandadan down the line. So far nothing official has been announced, but the Kaiju arc is clearly one of the more bombastic storylines, and it would make for some great spectacle in a cinema.
Then again, the series has been doing a great job with the animation so far, and the hype is up for this odd world by Yukinobu Tatsu-sensei.
Dandadan returns to Netflix on July 2025.
