Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse “Dan Da Dan” is a one of the best series of the year, one that will appeal particularly to fans of anime with the many references found throughout, but also ones that can be enjoyed by anyone due to the excellent combination of action, comedy and drama. Rated: 8 Jan 5, 2025 Full Review Sarah Musnicky Creepy Kingdom DAN DA DAN is a wild time from the jump. It may scare away less seasoned anime viewers with its zany energy, but honestly? That's a huge part of the fun. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 3, 2025 Full Review Annie Banks The Mary Sue By overhauling the concept of the traditional romance anime, Dandadan has successfully transformed a time-worn trope into an atypical genre-defying feat that’s still got a bit of sweetness to it. Dec 4, 2024 Full Review Julian Lytle RIOTUS Here, Fūga Yamashiro, the director, and his team not only keep the look, but they feel like they reach into your head and take out how you imagine the characters and scenes move when you’re reading it and splat it on the screen. Rated: B Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A fast-paced, refreshingly zany and exhilarating, but also exhausting blend of sci-fi, mystery and comedy. Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Isaiah Colbert io9.com As close to a slam dunk as a new anime premiere can get. Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Esra Y This show is bonkers, so much fun! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/25 Full Review James D good show ditracting fun Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/25 Full Review Karlito G Great watch. The different anime styles keeps it interesting and the characters development keeps it fresh Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Prehana S I dont like theme song, it becomes quite annoying. However its an interesting series about 2 teenagers who develop supernatural powers and who team up with other allies to take on evils such as aliens, demons etc. Worth a watch if you can get through episode 1 then you will enjoy the series. Quirky humour, good visuals. Budding romance and friendship shared between Momo and Okarun. The granny is a hilarious one as well in this series Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/25 Full Review Ryan H Great storytelling and visuals with a big helping of raunchy humor. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review Ben M Very over hyped. Decent voice acting and score but not my favorite art style. The story while interesting in premise is overly sexualized. It's all reminiscent of 2010s adult swim in art and humor. Honestly feels like hti checks all the boxes for critics of anime with campy tropes, and fan service. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
