Dandadan Manga Thread

Following, but there hasn't been much to talk about in terms of plot development. I do like where this left off with Momo and the Count. That feels like it can take us in a few directions. Especially, since they mentioned inserting false memories all chapter long, I could see that as a primer for whatever the Count does next.

Honestly, I'm a little mad that we haven't gotten a look at Zuma or the old man/boy after they got healed. Did they lose their memories too? I'm also losing hope that this will be a setup for Turbo Granny coming back. It feels like the next time Momo hear's "Ken Takakura" will be when her memories trigger.

I think CSG will make Momo "remember" she has a part time job but he's gonna implant a memory that it is at his bakery. Which will lead to him trying to befriend her (and the gang) to get her memories back. That will make the whole group trust the guy and in 50-100 chapters he'll make his move and steal Momo's powers. And that's what will trigger Turby Granny's return

My guess is that she gets her memories back in 2 more volumes (20 chapters) and that CSG "betrays" her in 5 more volumes. We'll see if he's the ending villain but I think the next year of the manga has been set up.

The Zuma stuff is weird because so far the only reason for him coming back was to tell the readers how serious the Danmara stuff was, and that's about it, lol.

So far, everything is a contrivance to force this amnesia stuff for as long as possible. Tatsu has lazily set it up so Momo can't get any useful or valuable info quickly: no grannys, no bffs giving her an honest assessment of the weirdo gang that follows her -they have a picture of her with Okarun in her part time job ffs - no alien tech available (for no good reason, lol) and no other amnesiacs to relate to. And everything has happened in a couple of hours because that way you limit her interactions and avoid her getting new info and figuring important shyt out.

Yeah, it does feel pretty forced with Okarun refusing to reveal his name; key characters MIA; supernatural students all agreeing to hide things from Momo; Normy friends seeming to forget about Okarun X Momo just the same. It's a rare case where the in-world logic feels like it's reaching, and it's for something so simple as opposed to the ghosts and aliens

I'm glad this got fixed. It still feels hella late, but I liked the new chapter doing a full callback to the friends forcing Okarun to visit Momo at work.
