Dan Da Dan: First Encounter

I'm not one to cherry pick this type of humour, but some of the sexual scenes were just really unnecessary.

The aliens wanting to reproduce is fine, okarun comedically losing his "manhood" was fine, but my problem is with how the show depicts sexual assault.

On the first and last episodes of season 1 Momo is *almost* sexually assaulted by groups of people. It gives me a horrible taste. Not only how easy they shrug it off, but also how fetishised it comes off as.

I don't believe there's many good reasons to visually depict sexual violence. If trauma from SA is relevant to a character's backstory (which it literally isn't in dan da dan???) it can be shown in other ways besides literally showing the exact way the character was abused, they could talk about it, they could have behaviours that foreshadow it, but it does not need visuals attached

If SA is a theme a show uses, it needs to be handled *very* delicately, and it's important to do this tastefully. Dan da dan did not even attempt to tastefully portray SA, instead they made it just another silly scene.

I like the rest of the show, I like the characters, I like the concept, but these scenes seriously ruin it for me.

Two unlikely classmates become friends when their lives are intertwined due to their beliefs. Momo believes in the supernatural, not the occult, and Okarun believes the opposite. They challenge each other to prove who's belief is true. Momo ends up being abducted, and Okarun is cursed. They now must work together to fix the mess they are in.

This is a very intriguing anime. The story is all over the place, from one character looking to belong and friends to the other for love and companionship. The story also has aliens, ghosts, curses, crude humor, and action. The movie quickly gets to the point and ends just as soon as it starts. The animation is excellent and captivating. With no prior knowledge of the manga or having seen a preview, I found this anime entertaining and worth watching.

At first it started chaotic with this Anime, maybe a bit of a cliché, but the last episode, episode 7 just went nuts, with the visuals with the story telling, the characters. It is one of the best episodes of Anime this year definitely, and one of the better ones in general. It checks all the boxes. The team has done a extremley good job. The visuals are like a movie, fluid and in some moments in the retrospective shots, you fortget that it is a anime you are wathcung and not a movie. The charactera, even for a such short screen time are so well portraid and you feel so involvede with them. The movies and shows that are now writen, and maid by Hollywood, and the streaming services, could learn a lot from this show. Extremely well done, congrats!

With incredible voice acting, music, sound effects, and absolutely mind-blowing art, DANDADAN was an incredible adaptation of the manga.

I've been a fan of the manga for a while now, and it's still pretty new, but I that I shouldn't sleep on it. I was a huge fan and loved it so much, I thought it couldn't get any better. But it did.

DANDADAN: FIRST ENCOUNTER brought dandadan to life in ways that I never thought possible, and it blew my mind. The animation was some of the best i've EVER seen on an anime, the style was silly and heartfelt at the same time, and the characters had absolutely larger-then-life personalities, and I just couldn't help but love each one of them and feel immersed in the world.

In all, DANDADAN is silly, sad, action-packed and romantic- what else could you ask for?
