Summary:
It all started as a little bet. Each wanted to prove the existence of the supernatural to their new friend, and neither was willing to listen. This quickly turns to chaos as a haunted tunnel and horny aliens get thrown into the mix.
Momo and Okarun are on a quest to save Jiji – but that’s easier said than done. His family home is cursed – and there are many different evils working against them. Will they find a way to survive this latest disaster?
Review:
How does this series keep finding new ways to up the ante yet stay playful? Dandadan Vol. 6 is just as chaotic and dangerous as the previous volumes—if not more so. Once again, our favorite characters deal with evils they don’t know or comprehend. It’s just a normal day for them, huh?
But seriously, I really enjoyed this arc. The Evil Eye twist was a bit of a surprise – but it’s also oddly thematic. I have a feeling we’re about to see a new addition to the team. Which may change the dynamics. Only time will tell, right?
There’s more action in this volume than usual (which is probably saying something). Thus, it leans more toward drama and a bit less toward comedy. I didn’t mind the balance, but I do think I’d prefer it if it got back to that balance/combo we love sooner rather than later.
Highlights:
- Horror/Science Fiction Manga
- Comedy
- Supernatural
- Sci-Fi versus Fantasy
