What isDandadanAbout?
Shonen Jump anime are typically known for their over the top fight scenes in the action genre. Over the years, many Shonen anime, such asDragon Ball, Bleach, One Piece,andAttack on Titanhave received nothing but love from fans.
However, most of the above-mentioned anime are pretty similar as far as their genre is considered. On the other hand,Dandadanis widely regarded as one of the weirdest manga series out there.
It follows the adventures of Ken Takakura and Momo Ayase. While Takakura is primarily interested in aliens, Ayase is obsessed with spirits. In order to prove their point, both characters go extreme distances, which ultimately leads to Takakura losing his manhood.
No, we are not kidding by any means. The primary goal of the name is to retrieve Takakura’s genitals from an old spirit. Now, isn’t that something?
