Dandadan Release Date

Is There a Dandadan Anime Release Date?

One of the big anime releases in 2024 is Dandadan, based on the ongoing original manga by Yukinobu Tatsu. The first trailer has managed to catch everyone’s attention, but do we know if Dandadan already has a release date?

What Is Dandadan’s Release Date?

Dandadan will be released on October 3 and will be following a weekly release schedule. That’s a long wait, but some information released back in March provided us with some crumbs about the upcoming anime’s plot, action scenes, and, of course, its OST.

What Is Dandadan About?

Dandadan follows the story of Momo Ayase, a girl who believes in ghosts but not aliens, and Ken Takakura (better known by Momo as Okarun), who believes in aliens but not ghosts. While trying to prove their own beliefs are correct, a sudden twist of fate confirms the existence of both entities, and Okarun is cursed by the Turbo Granny. He ends up gaining a powerful transformation but at a heavy cost.

Studio Saru (Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Devilman Crybaby, Space Dandy) is producing Dandadan, and it will arrive directly on Crunchyroll with weekly releases as soon as it’s out. The episodes will also be available on Netflix at the same time, so pick your favorite platform to enjoy it. The dubbed version should be streaming a few days after the first couple of episodes air.

The first cour of the anime will feature 13 episodes, but it’s still unclear how far it will follow the manga’s story (which is currently sitting at 15 volumes with over 150 chapters to adapt). There’s a lot of content to adapt, though, so we may even end up seeing a second season if the anime receives the same amount of praise as the manga.

And that’s whether there is a Dandadan anime release date.

The above article was updated on 8/20/2024 by the original author to include Dandadan’s actual release date.
