Tatsu's writing style prioritizes the characters first and the plot second, that's why a lot of people say Dandadan is a Romcom disguised as a Battle Shounen. Fleshing out the characters in these slice of life chapters definitely got me more invested when the action ramped up
Dude same, I'm not one for romance/romcom or awkward, whimpy protagonists but this episode was so cute it made me pause so much that I spent an hour just on this episode.
00:10 "What is wrong with me?" Nothing! Ken and Momo are relationship goals! I will die on this hill! I am SO looking forward to the next Science Saru release in 2026 of a manga faithful Ghost in the Shell anime!! The DanDaDan adaptation has given me faith in their ability to adapt one of the touchstones of my anime fandom, and I am stoked for it! It's a great time to be an anime fan, y'know?
agreed they re definitely relationship goals. I didn't know they are doing ghost in the shell , awesome. And indeed it's a great time to be an anime fan
the entire episode is just about how they might be developing feelings for eachother really the end is just added in so its not just a love episode and has some progression in the main story
@@JmanAnimates apparently his editor instructed the author to read over 100 romance Mangas because they don't want the romance between momo and okarun to be like the other Mangas and wants it to feel genuine and real. That's why I love the part where they can't stand to be apart during class. 💞
@ yeah I was shocked when I heard about that fact the other day. Their relationship feels more genuine that other Shonen battle manga relationships. It’s not forced and just feels natural

@JmanAnimates there is a teaser up on TH-cam for it. No actual animation, but it shows a Fuchikoma from the manga, which just made me happy! 😁
