What Is DAN DA DAN?
DAN DA DAN is currently one of the biggest anime franchises running to this day, and the anime is airing new episodes through the Summer 2025 anime schedule. As the anime airs its episodes, you can find it streaming with platforms like Netflix, Crunchyroll, and Hulu. The series introduces fans to the central duo of Momo and Okarun, who start off on the opposite ends of their respective beliefs but soon realize they have a lot more in common than they ever realize.
As for what to expect from the anime, DAN DA DAN is teased as such, “When high schooler Momo, from a family of spirit mediums, first meets her classmate Okarun, an occult geek, they argue—Momo believes in ghosts but denies aliens, and Okarun believes in aliens but denies ghosts. When it turns out both phenomena are real, Momo awakens a hidden power and Okarun gains the power of a curse. Together, they must challenge the paranormal forces threatening their world.”
