[Blake the Book Eater]

The ending to this arc is just so much fun and really cements Jiji as the “new guy” plus I love that old characters have been brought back into the fold! This world is lovely

THE COVERRR 😮‍💨🆘

[Štěpán]

Relying only on action does not work for Dandadan that well. That is because the "magic" system is very soft and the rules are vague. That does not mean that the fights and action are not entertaining or engaging - they are, yet they seem to lack predictability provided by the limitations of the magic system and therefore it is missing the benefit for the reader to predict, what can happen next.

Where it does excel is however the art. It is stunning. The detailed panels, dynamic action, creative faces and expressions are all great to look at. It all is still great.

To me, this volume is a little bit lacking because the character moments are pushed a little bit behind. They are present - the ending is full of them, but for the majority, it is very dry. I am looking forward to the next volume, as the ending presents a nice connection and cliffhanger.

The double spreads in this one were insane

[Vinicius]

Mais um volume incrível e bizarro de Dandadan, que consegue entregar uma luta épica e ao mesmo tempo uma trama convincente, que mescla a amizade dos personagens com o sobrenatural que tange a série, mostrando que o mangaka não precisa inventar novas temáticas, mas ser criativo e ter um bom roteiro com o que ele propõe desde o princípio.

Após o final angustiante e curioso do último volume, continuamos exatamente onde a história havia parado: Jiji foi possuído pelo youkai do olho demoníaco.

Sem dar spoilers, mas já sabendo a respeito do olho, Jiji não consegue dominar suas ações, logo se torna um antagonista para Momo e Okarun, dificultando ainda mais a luta deles contra a serpente.

Como mencionei anteriormente, uma luta muito boa acontece, com o potencial dos protagonistas sendo colocado em seu auge até o momento. Tudo isso mesclando com o sentimento da Momo e Okarun, que deixa o leitor ainda mais preocupado com toda a situação.

O legal de acompanhar o desfecho dessa luta, foi observar que novos personagens adentraram no combate para vencer Jiji possuído, formando uma equipe bem cômica e poderosa, sendo um fator inesperado e bem divertido dessa edição.

Ademais, é interessante acompanhar no final da edição os 2 núcleos que enfrentam os 2 antagonistas, sendo que o Jiji é vencido por rituais e magia, enquanto que a minhoca é superada pela ciência e o fator lógico, mostrando ao leitor que a ciência e o ocultismo são os elementos que movem esse mangá.

okarun being protective of his friends.. the friends he didn’t have a month or two ago… my son is all grown up.

[Mizuki]

Let's see what will happen this time...

PS: I appreciate the author's effort of providing good artwork.

Action-paced and there is hardly any nonsense in the story, I have no complaint.

My review for vol. 5: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

More to come.

everything is so weird and unexpected 💀

[Victor The Reader]

As the investigation at Jiji’s home continues, an unforeseen turns comes in the form of the Evil Eye taking control of Jiji and going after Okarun and Momo in the form of a giant worm. Despite the situation turning fatal, it only gets more fatal when a volcano near the village erupts and flaming magma fuels it into a fiery one that leaves Momo doing whatever it takes to rescue Okarun and Jiji.

It of course gets even more oddball but hopeful when a handful of help eventually arrives and the danger is extinguished, though with an unexpected setback in the end.

A (100%/Outstanding)

Buena pelea entre Okarun y el Ojeador. Este nuevo personaje promete. Y aúnque la Turbovieja aparece poco en este tomo, para mi es el mejor personaje.

༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽ JIJI, HIJO MÍO ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽

Si algo tiene DanDaDan es que es adictivo de primera. No sólo su arte que es un completo y absoluto cheff kiss, sino que sus personajes tienen un carisma que me entretiene a montones y hace reír, peeeero también tiene su lado shonen -claramente- y los monstruos que aparecen en cada tomo son increíblemente sorprendentes porque o son extremadamente fuertes, o divertidamente extraños o salen con un poder sacado de quién sabe dónde.

Sin embargo, en este tomo justo lo que suele gustarme de DDD, ahora lo sentí muy raro con la unión del equipo maravilla creado por la abuela. No entiendo por qué la mitad de los personajes salieron de la nada aunque estoy encantadísima con la bebé alien toda hermosa y chiquita.

Ahora regresando a mi hijo ¿Qué va a pasar con él? No se hizo mitad y mitad como Okarun, ni adquirió los poderes, sino que tal cual es el recipiente ¿Será que la única forma de acabar con la maldición esta sea acabando también con Jiji? Es algo en lo que podría pensar si fuese un alma sin piedad ya que haría más emocional esa pelea siendo que ahora sabemos que Jiji es consciente todavía.

[Niki]

I definitely don't like this arc as much as the previous ones.

[Alaska Lee]

bendito cine mi okarun salvando a la turbo abuela y momo dandole un abrazo !!!

[aamna]

Was reading on an online site , someone commented “ funko pop ahh enemies “ 💀💀💀💀(lowkey can’t unsee it now )

[Jenny Clark]

More of Jiji here, and we learn a important thing about his transformation. I forsee that being an issue in the future...

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

Series: Dandadan Ch. 41-49
Rating: 4 stars - It was really good

This volume continues the fight against the Mongolian Death Worm and Evil Eye. This was a very interesting battle because they were fighting on multiple fronts and things just kept popping up. Since the backstory for these monsters were in the previous volume, this one was mostly fighting, but it was still a great battle.

This volume really shows how far Momo and Okarun have come since that first chapter. They now are fighting to protect each other and the city, not just focusing on surviving a yokai or alien. Seeing them deal with repeated attacks from the Worm and Evil Eye really just shows how strong they have gotten.

Evil Eye continues to be an interesting yokai that I am curious to see how they deal with, especially since they now know what triggers him.

[charly]

JIJI😭😭😭😭😭 NOOOOO. WHYYY😭😭😭. That team up though against him was epic. The ALIEN CAME BACK AND HIS CHILD WAS SO CUTE😭😭. Okarun and ayase in this volume🤭🤭🤭🤭. The hyde and jekyll situation jiji is in with his yokai is kinda funny ngl. Hopefully he comes back though😭😭

[Michelle]

Again the 2 page splash layouts for the fights were eyecandy. There were a lot of twists and turns to end the story ARC, but I like how the local priest and the rest of the calvary show up to help. I don't like the resolution of Jiji's yokai, 2hich is very Ranma 1/2. The scene of Momo saving Okarun was well earned and made me happy.

[Mariána K]

So much fun! A real must read!

Can't stop, won't stop! This series is a real banger that everyone should read! Totally binge-worthy, haven't been able to put it down since the anime brought it into my awareness.

[Annie]

5 stars

[MarinaLawliett]

Mi tomo favorito hasta ahora. Ha pasado literalmente de TODO !!!

[Emily]

I'm loving Jiji! Can't wait to see what happens with his curse.

[Adam Fisher]

This series is so incredible! And I can tell it will have some longevity, but not overstay its welcome.
Will we be adding Jiji to the list of Yokai powered heroes?
Highlights:
- Jiji has fully bonded to Evil Eye and wants to take down everyone in the pit with him.
- When Evil Eye Jiji starts smacking around Momo, Turbo Okarun has to get involved in defending her
- Okarun helps get Momo out of the pit so she can get help. Being so far away from things, she decides to light the house on fire to draw attention.
- As Okarun and Jiji fight, the Great Serpent escapes the pit through the fire. Momo is able to kill it, but the minute she does, the volcano erupts, proving the Kito Family right.
- She uses the serpent huge corpse to connect it with water, using the worm body like a giant hose to stop the progression of lava
- Evil Eye defeat Turbo Okarun and escapes the pit, facing off against Momo, Granny Kito, and Manjiro, the local temple guy Momo met earlier.
- Joining the fight are the Dover Demon and Seiko, who help spring the plan: They will trap Jiji inside Taro, their living anatomical dummy robot.
- Momo and Okarun share a moment when he and Turbo Granny Cat are saved from the fire.
- Back at the house, they find out that Jiji and Evil Eye can switch control over the body. Jiji when splashed with hot water, Eye with cold.

Another fun and action packed Volume! Hoping to continue on with this very soon.
Strong recommend.

So I was wrong about the way Jiji was possessed, but still the possession was predictable. The 3 possessions so far were different, Okarun got the turbo granny's power while she's a cat, the girl (still don't remember her name sorry) was for protection and Jiji was possessed by a yokai (I guess this is the name sorry if it's wrong, plus turbo granny is also a yokai but Jiji is being used as a vessel). Actually I haven't mentioned but since turbo garnny became a cat that I really love her character! To finish, I loved this volume way more than the previous one this is very addicting and funny so I absolutely recommend it <3

[Natalie]

My poor Jiji! He does not deserve to be taken over by an evil spirit after he was sweet enough to feel compassion for him! 😩

I don’t have much to say about this volume tbh as it was mostly action packed. What I can say is that beloved Jiji is now in a tough spot that I don’t like. Though I must say he looks so silly when the Evil Eye takes over, and he’s just wearing underwear 😂

As for my faves, Momo and Ken, I love how much they wanna protect each other 🥺 Their little hug at the end of this volume warmed my heart! I love my babies so much 💖 I would risk it all for them 😭

So, yeah, that’s pretty much it. I’m looking forward to continuing the series! ✨

[James DeSantis]

This finishes up this arc with a new member joining the team. I can't wait to see this one fight animated because holy fuck is it going to look sick. But overall the big worm is out, the old ladies/men are out, and we have a new member who maybe is a bit two face? (As in Batman like two face) Overall very fun volume.

[D. F.]

We have entered the maximum bonkers zone. I love it so much. It is absolutely unhinged, with all the yokai and alien stuff coming together in such a clever way here. It's all just pure fun and I can see potential for miles.
