After all, the sci-fi rom-com is obsessed with all things supernatural. Momo may seem like an average high school girl, but she is obsessed with everything supernatural. She believes ghosts are real, and Mom often butts heads with Ken as he believes aliens are real. When the two make a bet on who is correct, their lives are turned upside down as it seems both students were correct. And once the pair discover humanity isn’t alone, the occult floodgates are burst wide open.
If you are not familiar with Dandadan, you should know series creator Yukinobu Tatsu is still working on the Shonen Jump+ title. So for those wanting more info on the series, you can read its official synopsis below:
“Momo Ayase strikes up an unusual friendship with her school’s UFO fanatic, whom she nicknames “Okarun” because he has a name that is not to be said aloud. While Momo believes in spirits, she thinks aliens are nothing but nonsense. Her new friend, meanwhile, thinks the exact opposite. To settle matters, the two set out to prove each other wrong-Momo to a UFO hotspot and Okarun to a haunted tunnel! What unfolds next is a beautiful story of young love…and oddly horny aliens and spirits?”
