“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.

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. Go to Full Review Annie Banks The Mary Sue 12/04/2024
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. Go to Full Review Julian Lytle RIOTUS 11/18/2024

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. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 11/18/2024
A fast-paced, refreshingly zany and exhilarating, but also exhausting blend of sci-fi, mystery and comedy. Go to Full Review Isaiah Colbert io9.com 11/18/2024

Kyle E @Plady Nov 9 A fantastic anime with great animation, a great story, and 2 fantastic main characters See more Maria G Nov 4 Episode 1 overtly sexualizes a high school nude girl with a fetishized r*** scene. How are people okay with this? I can only imagine it gets worse. I will stop watching it See more Ben W @Ben.W Sep 21 I'm generally picky with animes (I like maybe 4 of them), I'm a man I like violence and cool fights. I clicked on Dan Da Dan because it was new and had an 18+ rating and boy oh boy am I happy to be suprised. It is the cutest thing ever, I'm like a schoolboy again rooting for Ken and Asase to get together. The humour is on point too... All of you do yourselves a favour and check this anime out See more Alyse H Aug 17 Favorite anime of all time. Hey anime industry, Momo is how you do a female lead in an anime! She’s probably my favorite anime character of all time. She is brilliant and badass and I’m so obsessed with her and Okarun! Two genuinely brilliant badass spazzs who care about each other and continue to take turns saving each other, beating the baddie, and growing as the series progresses! So refreshing in story, characters and plot! See more Chase R. @chsrhm Aug 11 Faithful to the insanely fast manga, somehow. Production quality doesn’t slow down at all through the whole season. You can tell this is being made by people who love the source material. See more Alexander L Aug 2 If I could give this 100 stars I would. This anime is so fresh, beautifully animated, and great blend of stellar story telling, compelling characters, and hilarious antics. I'm obsessed. See more Read all reviews
