Entertainment sometimes needs to be wild. Lest everything get samey and boring. Having an aliens vs ghost story would of been interesting by itself especially with how well the characters are written and how good the animation is. The whole dong and sexuality subtheme is basically there to grab your attention. Its a... VERY WEIRD hook, but it works remarkably well.
@@JohnDoe-e4i Because I actually find alien abduction stories nightmarish this was probably the scariest anime scene I've seen in a while rather than your usual sexual/ fanservice scene. That's why there is a disconnect when people treat this as a weird anime trope rather than a traumatically blunt scene
@@nothingface5919 >but it works remarkably well. ???? Who is hooked by that??? Eeveryone I see talk about it says they love the craziness & the chemistry of the main characters and that'll keep 'em coming back, but I've seen several people coniser dropping it just for that alien scene?...
We losing our balls with this one 🤣🔥 (Ken Takakura in real life was an actor who's basically Japan's version of Clint Eastwood. MC happens to share the same name)
Yep. Both based on an actual urban legend. There are many different variations but the most common I've heard when I was still living there is that you'll be driving through a tunnel on the highway and suddenly hear a knock on the window and when you look there's a grandma matching your speed. She doesn't really do anything she's just....there lol.
So would you say that Mob and Dan Da Dan exist in the same universe? Assuming she's alive in Mob but has passed in Dan Da Dan would make it a theory that both anime exist in the same universe. Especially since Momo has psychic abilities.
@@adandyguyinspace5783 it’s a fun idea but Turbo Granny is a real life Japanese urban legend too. I doubt they were meant to be the same, but hey no headcanons hurt somebody so fuck it I believe it. I mean there are aliens in Mob too.
@@DiaNne31 hmm. Still makes you think though. Of course no anime is going to say that so and so takes place in the same universe. That’s a fighting game thing where apparently Tekken, Street Fighter, and KOF are in the same universe.
If you're wondering who Ken Takakura is, he is the manliest actor who actually existed in Japan. Internationally, Takakura-san has acted in Michael Douglas' movie "Black Rain". He has played numerous characters like, Hitmen, Yakuzas and Police Inspectors.
Ken Takakura is the name of Momo’s celebrity crush(real actor btw) and the male mc just happens to have the same name which is why momo was surprised, the male mc also says one of the actors lines “coincidentally” specifically the “I’m an awkward guy after all” line And it also explains why she even dated the douchebag in the beginning which was bcuz said douchebag looked like her celeb crush (which tbf most teens tend to have bad first dating experience)
Turbo granny is a real folklore and apparently she protect young girls along with her story. So it adds a layer when you realize she pops out the cellphone possessing Occult-kun and they both want to protect her.
@@mugen4516 it's not really a spoil. It a insight on the Japanese folklore about turbo granny and it being an actual thing. Can't remember if the manga ever straight up tells you that but it's something most reactors don't know. If you watched the video she's even confused as to how turbo granny got on the ship. This is just giving a look at the actual lore to help make sense to the scene.
@@stormriderskI got 40 chapters into the manga so far and as far as I know they didn’t really add onto this. Anyways not a spoiler brother you’re fine lol
I know people get weirded out by the first episode, but I've been loving this series. Also the weird part is based on people who claim to have been abducted say they were experimented on and especially from women say that they were violated how ayase was about to be violated.
they have/had 2 versions of the subbed and i think this one is being pushed on crunchyroll or whatever most reactors use but the grandma kept saying "Dong" instead of "weenie" and in the being when ken says "I know your in love" the other version he said "I Know what you're into" and stuff like that just made more sense for the context
I was the same as Michelle on the twist in the end of this episode. I jokingly said "Ken" as well, i was laughing all the way to episode 2. I DID watch the leaked first 6 episodes and DUDE....
Funny you guys mentioned chainsaw man and cartoon network as Yukinobu Tatsu was Fujimoto's former assistant on drawing CSM. And the same studio that animated Adventure Time did this too
the heroine was in shackles, stripped down and forcibly having her legs spread apart. The otaku was able to run and we didnt see any part of the assault on screen. Its understandable
@@Jmerzio exactly, and also women get raped and/or sexually harassed all the time (albeit not by aliens) whereas spiritual possesion is not a thing that happens, so obviously one going to hit much closer to home
The part with the alien made me reconsider to even keep watching the episode lol.. Very very uncomfortable but they caught up well and I realized it's more of a comedy, big relief 😭😂😂
You guys on the Patreon better do your part and get Kaguya a victory in their slice of life (and I hope they'll check the dub because Ian Sinclair as narrator is amazing).
If u look in the manga on the part where ken was showing her his book on conspiracies, all the ones he showed r real conspiracies. The anime actually censored and changed it from the manga. In the manga the president that went to mars was president obama. And there is a real conspiracy theory about president obama way b4 he was president going to mars. The story was alleged by a lawyer, Andrew Bassiago, himself also being one of the individuals (youths at the time) selected to travel to mars. He sat in the same classroom orientation with obama, then known as barey satouro, and was told that he would one day be a president of the US...
i love that you mentioned that the style is Chainsaw man since the author of Dandadan was an assistant of CSM's author before, then you also mentioned it reminded you of a Cartoon network show, Dandadan is kinda like Regular Show but anime
Hi guys! Love your reactions, and yes this anime is on the wave. About the "tunnel" folklorre I also saw that in Mieruko-chan wich I strongly recommend (anime and manga).
7:58 Im pretty sure that tunnel is based off of the real ghost tunnel in Japan found in the northern area close to Hokkaido. I actually wanted to do ghost hunting in that tunnel but its too far from my place.
Cool fact is the Author was a assistant for Chainsaw Man part 1 manga, actually all 3 assistant from part 1 of Chainsaw man have now successful manga with Dandadan, spy x family and hells paradise
Your slice of life options lean more towards standard romance. Slice of life can definitely have romance in it, but from my experience slice of life doesn't usually have typical story arc, unlike most other genres.
Great reactions for the 1st ep of a dope anime.. read the manga and you guys are going for a ride.. and yes Ron, i too also have the same interest as what you said about the supernatural, untap potential of humans, the aliens and the history and wonders of the world. its normal.. no where near weird haha
You don’t consider Spy x Family as slice of life? I think you guys watched/liked that series already, so I’m sure you’ll like another slice of life. Anyway, looking forward to some of your new reactions.
One thing that was censored from the manga is the president they mentioned in the magazine was Obama but I guess they changed it because of the American political climate 😂😂
from what you said about the shows going on a poll on Patreon, none of them are actually slice of life, rather just dramas or romances, but actual slice of life shows are just shows where anime characters wonder around aimlessly and are usually pretty boring, they have no actual story progression and most of time are cute girls doing cute things genre to appeal to lonely or horny men, just warning you to not watch them since they are that boring or just take this message in consideration, as always u guys make awesome content!

Luffy's VA is the ghost granny. Zoro's VA was one of the aliens that got smoked. Tanjiro's VA for Ken. Star studded cast!
Every person's reaction: "I am not comfortable watching this.... this is a perfect episode one"

Its weird because normally id be like turned away by it, but....its good so I wasn't, its like they rode the line of the uncomftorable perfectly.
Anime formula is [ not loli = okay ]

????
Who is hooked by that??? Eeveryone I see talk about it says they love the craziness & the chemistry of the main characters and that'll keep 'em coming back, but I've seen several people coniser dropping it just for that alien scene?...
We losing our balls with this one 🤣🔥
(Ken Takakura in real life was an actor who's basically Japan's version of Clint Eastwood. MC happens to share the same name)
Denji from Chainsaw Man lost one of his balls but this guy lost everything 😮
You mean losing your weenie
@@RuTo94 yep. Shmeat and sack got taken😭
Did you realize that Turbo Granny is voiced by Luffy's va, and the aliens by Zoro? 😭
luffys voice in turbo granny can be noticed immediately, but i still cant wrap my head around zoros VA as the alien😂
And the English va for the granny is rita from the original power rangers dub
And Okarun is Natsuki Hanae (Tanjiro)
@@mamama292no wonder it sounds familiar
Omfg, I didn't even realize 😮
Funny you mentioned Mob because Turbo Granny is literally in Mob except the joke was that she wasn't a real spirit and was just a really fast granny.
Yep. Both based on an actual urban legend. There are many different variations but the most common I've heard when I was still living there is that you'll be driving through a tunnel on the highway and suddenly hear a knock on the window and when you look there's a grandma matching your speed.

@@adandyguyinspace5783they aren’t the same verse, turbo granny is a popular urban legend so she is featured in both anime and
@@adandyguyinspace5783 it’s a fun idea but Turbo Granny is a real life Japanese urban legend too. I doubt they were meant to be the same, but hey no headcanons hurt somebody so fuck it I believe it. I mean there are aliens in Mob too.

*Girugamesh voice* And Tom Sellick's Mr. Baseball!
When you realize that Luffy's VA is the ghost and Zoro's one of the aliens makes the lines A LOT funnier.
If you guys didnt notice Luffys voice actor voices the turbo granny and zoro voice acts one of the alines XD
Ken Takakura is the name of Momo’s celebrity crush(real actor btw) and the male mc just happens to have the same name which is why momo was surprised, the male mc also says one of the actors lines “coincidentally” specifically the “I’m an awkward guy after all” line

@@mugen4516 Are you retarded?
Your intro with Eustace up in the clerb was so funny! 🤣
TURBO GRANNY-Luffy voice actor
I know people get weirded out by the first episode, but I've been loving this series. Also the weird part is based on people who claim to have been abducted say they were experimented on and especially from women say that they were violated how ayase was about to be violated.
A lot of these aliens and ghosts are based on urban legends and folktales. It’s really cool looking into them after every episode/ chapter
The voice actors for the protagonist and Turbo Granny are Tanjiro and Luffy.
And the alien guys are zoro
I’m so glad Tanjiro time traveled from whatever era all the way to now to voice a high school student with no balls
1000% the best romance of newgen anime/manga. Y'all are in for a TREAT!
they have/had 2 versions of the subbed and i think this one is being pushed on crunchyroll or whatever most reactors use but the grandma kept saying "Dong" instead of "weenie" and in the being when ken says "I know your in love" the other version he said "I Know what you're into" and stuff like that just made more sense for the context
"i know you're in love" is what both the audience and momo understands in japanese though. that's why she talks about how he got the wrong idea
it's not until he opens his book that it becomes more clear what he means
@20:07 The Dan Da Dan manga writer "Yukinobu Tatsu" was the assistance of Fujimoto Tatsuki (Chainsaw man writer).
I was the same as Michelle on the twist in the end of this episode. I jokingly said "Ken" as well, i was laughing all the way to episode 2.
I DID watch the leaked first 6 episodes and DUDE....
The first 6 are leaked???? 👀
@@3xHotshot yeah it happened a while back. The leaked eps are poor in quality tho, i wouldn't watch those
@@3xHotshot yeah a couple months ago. agree better to watch the official release.
Dandadan is complete and utter madness and I freaking love it!
when someone ask me if Dandadan is good I just tell them they have Tanjiro, Luffy and Zoros VA
Funny you guys mentioned chainsaw man and cartoon network as Yukinobu Tatsu was Fujimoto's former assistant on drawing CSM. And the same studio that animated Adventure Time did this too
The fact that everyone laughed about the boy's situation but felt uncomfortable about the girl's situation in this ep 😕
the heroine was in shackles, stripped down and forcibly having her legs spread apart. The otaku was able to run and we didnt see any part of the assault on screen. Its understandable
@@Jmerzio exactly, and also women get raped and/or sexually harassed all the time (albeit not by aliens) whereas spiritual possesion is not a thing that happens, so obviously one going to hit much closer to home

Everyone talks about the granny being luffy, but no one ever mentions the alien is zoro
Lmao Even when Luffy turns into turbo granny he is all about the meat! 😅

Did you know that Okarun/Takakura Ken's seiyuu is the same one who voiced Tanjiro in Demon Slayer?
so the part about coming out of the phone I THINK is a reference to the ring, how the girl travels through via electronics
BTW the granny's VA is Luffy's
Turbo Granny be wildin out there 😂
i love that you mentioned that the style is Chainsaw man since the author of Dandadan was an assistant of CSM's author before, then you also mentioned it reminded you of a Cartoon network show, Dandadan is kinda like Regular Show but anime
Great reaction guys, also your opinions on point, my opinion was sooo slow, after a week i was like yes that epidose is perfect. Thanks for the video!
The mangaka in this anime is actually former assistant's mangaka of chansaiwan
Funniest Rice and Ginger intro to date lmao
It is tanjiros voice in the sub and nezukos VA voices the girl in the dub! Also turbo Granny is Luffy in sub and the 3 alien guys are voices by Zoro!
The shocking stuff is Only in this episode, the later episodes is "sweet and wholesome"
Hi guys! Love your reactions, and yes this anime is on the wave. About the "tunnel" folklorre I also saw that in Mieruko-chan wich I strongly recommend (anime and manga).
Hey, I was shocked too. The hell these reactors got me watching?! 😂😂
Luffy asking to gobble tanjiro's weenie is wild
7:58 Im pretty sure that tunnel is based off of the real ghost tunnel in Japan found in the northern area close to Hokkaido. I actually wanted to do ghost hunting in that tunnel but its too far from my place.
Cool fact is the Author was a assistant for Chainsaw Man part 1 manga, actually all 3 assistant from part 1 of Chainsaw man have now successful manga with Dandadan, spy x family and hells paradise
Naruto was 12 when he did the sexy jutsu
why i can't find this one on your patreon?
Processing now!
Will you be watching Re:Zero? Season 3? Every Wednesday an episode releases. So far 2 episodes have relased
9:02 Luffy's VA and Zoro's VA
Your slice of life options lean more towards standard romance. Slice of life can definitely have romance in it, but from my experience slice of life doesn't usually have typical story arc, unlike most other genres.
Wait until episode 7 promise y'all gonna cry
yayyy !! so glad you guys decided to react to this!
Hmm we might need to get you guys to watch Uzumaki lol
Great reactions for the 1st ep of a dope anime.. read the manga and you guys are going for a ride.. and yes Ron, i too also have the same interest as what you said about the supernatural, untap potential of humans, the aliens and the history and wonders of the world. its normal.. no where near weird haha
