Dandadan

Description

From Viz:
Momo Ayase strikes up an unusual friendship with her school’s UFO fanatic, whom she nicknames “Okarun” because he has a name that is not to be said aloud. While Momo believes in spirits, she thinks aliens are nothing but nonsense. Her new friend, meanwhile, thinks the exact opposite. To settle matters, the two set out to prove each other wrong. Momo to a UFO hotspot and Okarun to a haunted tunnel. What unfolds next is a beautiful story of young love and oddly horny aliens and spirits?

Would 10/10 recommend!

The artwork, story, character development, and music in the manga and the anime is top notch. I just can’t get enough of this series. I love the combination of all the supernatural tied up so nicely with a beautiful young romance. Seeing the characters grow and evolve together even when faced with the craziest situations but pulling of the impossible together. I just get swept away by it. Do yourself a favor and read the manga, watch the anime, and look up the Soundtrack to the series. You won’t be disappointed ;)

Where's the plot

Nice art and I like the main girl. Other than that there's no real plot, no compelling villains, the other protagonists are dull...

I finished all the current mangas as of 11/14/24.

It was a good read. I'm eager to look forward to the next chapter.

This took me a day or two to complete in one sitting. I love everything in this manga.

It's been a while since I've read something this good. This manga has everything- shounen, romance, comedy, horror, school life- you name it! Best of all is that it never fails to pack a punch. Absolutely hilarious, love it

Taking a break...

For now, I stop at the cute girl alien-- (idk her name again was). Maybe I'll continue it later... idk.
(((After skimming some latest chapter, I feel sure to just drop this and read it later again if the end already out.)))

The comedy is nice, the plot is nice, but I feel somewhere; somewhat; there's a repetitive plot going over and over again. Like a trademark that have been used, being used again... ... ..uh, I'm not good at saying nor my English is good.

It's like -> tragic story comes with power! XD
Anyw not that I hate the plot, it just I'm actually a reader that easily tired with same pattern. Unless maybe it's clearly episodic.

The action is stylish, but not interesting. It's fine to cap off a story beat in a flashy way, but as the series progressed the action scenes grew longer and began to eat up more and more screen time. Some authors can make fight scenes intriguing in and of themselves.This is not one of them.

The end product is, unfortunately, rather dull.

Worth my time!

Very original and refreshing read. Plot is so different. It might be hard to get into it at first but after couple of chapters, you will be hooked.
I would say it is a very simple read despite it's weirdness and overwhelmed description.
You are not gonna worry much about the future event and will just enjoying reading whatever is presented for you and also might shed a tears on one or two occasions.
As for the characters and their interactions with each other, you gonna love almost all of them especially the main couple. I really like their interaction.
It's a manga that worth my time!
Also, no ecchi and horny instead a lot of action, school life and romance here and there.

An enjoyably mix.

by Kamugin

I've discovered this manga yesterday and I've already read all of the available chapters. The story is average but I like the art a lot. Fanservice is getting less frequent, sadly. If the romance wasn't the same beating around the bush characteristic of shounen manga, I would like it even more. But it is funny how they go on fighting classic fiends of horror stories and SF. The many references to classics like Ultraman, Spectreman, Giant Robot, Gundam and etc. are pretty good. That slited mouth woman reminds me Junji Ito works, she is quite scary. I hope it becomes an anime.
By the way, isn't gyaru a dead fad since the early 2000s? This manga started in 2021.
