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.
For a moment, it seemed like Okarun and Momo were about to get an easy win, finally finding the missing, er, item they’d been looking for. Unfortunately, things are quite a bit more complicated than that, and now they have to fight a kaiju!
Review:
Man, I really love Dandadan. This series has quickly become one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite of all time. I wasn’t expecting that, but I’m also not complaining. Dandadan Vol. 9 is another out-of-pocket addition to the series, and I’m here for it.
Volume 9 starts in the middle of a battle, thanks to the cliffhanger from the last volume. Our favorites (plus their newest ally?) are in the middle of a kaiju battle! It’s chaotic, to say the least.
What really struck me during this fight is how differently chaotic it is. Bear with me – every fight is chaotic, we know that. But this fight was different, in part because of the new characters thrown into the mix.
The conclusion raises a lot of questions and once again has the potential to shake the group’s dynamics. I wasn’t expecting this change so soon, though I did know it was coming. An additional arc at the end helps reform the group, making me hopeful for what is to come.
Highlights:
