ダンダダン [Dan Da Dan] #10

by Yukinobu Tatsu

To avoid being late for school on Vamola’s first day, Momo takes the mysterious kaiju girl on a shortcut through some off-limits ruins. But the protection spell they perform doesn’t work, and they run into the slit-mouthed woman who resides there! The two narrowly escape, and it’s only later that Momo realizes the real danger they were in. So why is it that for Momo’s own safety, Seiko is now forbidding her from leaving her room after 10 p.m. for the next week?!

This Man in Dandadan mi ha steso. Ogni volta, appena esce, divoro il volume e poi mi tocca aspettare due mesi 😭 adoro sta serie!!

[Vinicius]

No volume 10 de Dandadan, temos as consequências da “aventura” que Momo e Bamora que pegaram um atalho para chegar a escola e acabaram se deparando com uma maldição/espirito da Mulher da Boca Cortada. Mesmo resolvendo a situação (conforme visto no volume 9), Momo descobre que a maneira que ela lidou com a situação tem uma “brecha”, a qual ela ira lidar nesse volume.

Assim, Momo e Bamora precisam ficar trancadas no quarto, sem acesso a espelhos, janelas e afins, das 22h às 5h, para poderem se salvar. Porém, a Mulher da Boca Cortada vai fazer de tudo para manipular Momo a sair do quarto.

Após a resolução desse problema, acompanhamos as interações dos protagonistas na escola, tendo que se reunir de maneira sorrateira para falar sobre as bolas do Okarun, assim como “driblar” os olhares e fofocas dos outros alunos da escola. Inclusive, até a representante de turma do Okarun está brava com Momo, Jiji e Aira entrando a todo momento na sala de aula para ver o Okarun.

No que tange a inserção da Bamora na trama, foi algo bem natural e plausível. Ela está acompanhando os protagonistas na escola como aluna de intercambio, enquanto aprende o idioma humano (japonês) para se comunicar com o grupo.

Apesar do mangá já ser dinâmico, do meio para o final da trama, um outro arco se inicia, envolvendo novos inimigos para o grupo e cenas incríveis de ação são trabalhadas. O grupo está dividido e sofrem ataques de inimigos desconhecidos ao mesmo momento. Inimigos esses, que trazem muita dificuldade aos protagonistas.

Ademais, estou curioso para entender mais sobre esses inimigos e a relação deles com os acontecimentos anteriores, assim como o objetivo deles com o grupo.

my favorite morons~

Vamola is put in the same class as Okarun, and she's an instant hit with the other classmates. We find out the Slit Face Woman(ugly yokai) isn't actually defeated, and has now cursed Momo.
Some strong ass aliens show up and basically one-shot the crew. Plot twist, Vamola brought them here.

The dynamic between Okarun and MoMo is very cute, but it's been ten volumes already; just say you like each other, so we can see the plot development. And yes, I do know it’s a Shonen Manga, but I’d actually like to see what happens when these characters try to date each other.

3.5 🌟

[charly]

PERIOD. THIS VOLUME WAS CHEFS KISS. I love the gang dynamics so much. The whole alien invasion though…. Not cool man. And vamola is the main reason 😭😭😭😭. Also okaruns genutals cannot take a break😭😭😭 Why is everyone gunning for them💀💀💀. I can’t believe jiji and aira almost died too😭😭.
Momo though. She is so badass. I LOVE HER SO MUCH. MY NEW FAV FMC FR. She is gonna get so powerful.
Also please tell me the serpoians maybe get behind the gangs side. I hate them but like maybe redemption arc….?

[brie sullivan]

poor dude lost his ball again 😞

[bella]

MOE MOE TRI-BEAM!!!!!!!

[ᶻz ⋮ layla ⸝⸝ (ia)]

this is all a misunderstanding my valmora would never. she’s a saint. she’s innocent, i say, innocent!!

[James DeSantis]

In the tenth volume of Dandadan, the team finds themselves in a dire situation after a new demon begins haunting Momo and Vamola. This is a pretty great volume, with a GREAT standout chapter where the demon attempts to lure Momo out of her room by using the voice of her lover, a moment that is both excellent and sad. Also fuck you demon.

The rest of the volume is just as intense, with all our heroes getting blasted and beaten by alien creatures. The stakes are high, leading to an intense final confrontation where Momo is forced to team up with a very unexpected ally.

Overall, this volume earns a 4 out of 5 for its blend of humor, horror, and high-octane action.

[Greg]

4/5 After a slower volume in 9 shit goes nuts in volume 10. A new type of alien has shown up out of no where and just starts beating the ever loving crap out of our team. A very shonen esque volume where everyone is pitted up against different enemies. Pretty exciting volume with some excellent art and crazy fights.

New girl Vamola and Kinta on the cover of volume 10.

[Youssra {very busy-review slumping}]

Okarun finally said it😭 I might dieeeeee

[Annie]

what did just happened? 😂

[Mattthew]

Really enjoying this series. The mirror lady was creepy!!!!

[Jenny Clark]

Battles aplenty here! I am really enjoying this much more than I thought I would.

Check out my YouTube channel for bookish videos and monthly wrap ups!

WOAH! Fights after fights after fights.... this will continue for quite sometime! AND mostly fighting on their own instead of relying on each other.
Highlights:
- As Vamola continues to increase in popularity and Kinta continues to be annoying, Okarun has an odd dynamic with his class president. Does she like him too? Potential future villain?
- The slit-mouthed woman has a name: Reiko Kashima, a very powerful yokai who can see into your heart and torment you. Because Momo ran her temporarily off in the last Volume, she now has to be home before 10 pm every night and can't leave the house or even look outside.
- Reiko pretends to be Okarun protecting her window and confesses his love for her. Seeing as this is Momo's true heart's desire, she almost looks out to see "him" but Reiko fails by being too formal about Jiji. (You can feel Momo's heart breaking...)
- Jiji is able to use his spiritual power to do a kind of kamehameha, blasting a minor telekinetic force out.
- Okarun confronts Vamola about her feelings and says he can't be with her because he loves Momo (The FIRST time he has said it out loud!)
- Okarun gets trapped fighting a bunch of bug-like robots, and he is defeated, again losing his ball to them. (Got to get them both now!)
- Aira and Jiji are stuck fighting monsters together, but even the arrival of Evil Eye can't help.
- Mantis Alien saves Okarun from getting killed
- While at work, Momo has to deal with more Serpoians, including clones. Using the training that Jiji had with his telekinetic blast, Momo is able to use Moe-Moe Tribeam and causes a huge explosion.

What happens next? Hope I don't have to wait too long.

Keep it up Tatsu-san, this is wonderful!
High recommend.

alien girl is really fun and i enjoy her. i enjoy the relationship building with her and momo (even tho it is SLOW) but the real star are the fucking spirits because HOLY SHIT these might be the scariest of them all. reading this shit at night in the dark??? i actually go scared. like we have this stupid ball recovery arc with stupid gags and then we get some of the most haunting art - I LOVE IT

[SAL]

Ma che sta successo 🫥🤯

[Mariána K]

What a blast!

This series never fails to deliver! Over and over again I keep wondering how they can keep up the momentum and the insanity and yet they do. I absolutely love watching the heroes grow and develop as well as the story that they are traveling through. I wonder if some of this is a metaphor for puberty? Lol

[Su]

Aliens!

This was a great installment. There was a lot happening, but it felt well put together, coherent unlike the previous volume, which was choppy in my opinion. This flowed and delivered on the usual Dandadan action and story telling. I hope the next volume keeps the momentum going!

[Keira Mc]

Momo and Okarun are so in love they just need to tell each other and start dating immediately. Especially because every woman in existence keeps falling in love with Okarun. Momo needs to snatch up her man fast

[Joseph]

you'd think there would be some copyright for the 'have you ever dreamed this man' man, but I guess not.

really wish this guy could create stakes for momo that involved anything other than 'I am about to be assaulted'.

[Bennett]

I havent thought about the "This Man" early internet phenomenon in like a decade and the jump scare I had when I turned the page to this stupid manga was unmatched and now the nightmares have returned.

[MIL]

有種鏈鋸人加黃金神威的感覺
通常這種熱血少年系的漫畫我很快就膩了
但JK畫的挺可愛的，加上是別人買的
我就還是看到電子書最新進度了
要我自己買還是免了
