THE OCCULT ALREADY-CLASSIC IS CONFIRMED FOR A COMEBACK

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 19, 2024 -- Today, Mainichi Broadcasting System Inc. announced that the smash-hit anime DAN DA DAN will return with a second season in July 2025. Already hailed as one of the best anime, if not television productions outright, of 2024; Season 2 of DAN DA DAN is set to launch into a new chapter following the shocking cliffhanger that capped off the first season.

The newly unveiled Season 2 announcement visual captures a sense of tension and unease, with the ominous presence of Evil Eye, fixated on Jiji, standing in the center, commanding attention through its unsettling gaze. The deep purple hues that fill the background heighten anticipation for the intense and merciless battles that await Momo, Okarun, Jiji, and Turbo Granny. Adding to the intrigue, the artwork features portraits of renowned classical composers and a small kaiju, hinting at the bizarre and unpredictable adventures still to come in DAN DA DAN.

[Season 1 Information]

ABOUT DAN DA DAN:

DAN DA DAN follows Momo, a high school girl from a family of spirit mediums, and her classmate Okarun, an occult geek. The two of them started talking after Momo rescued Okarun from getting bullied. However, an argument ensues between them - Momo believes in ghosts but denies aliens, and Okarun believes in aliens but denies ghosts. To make each other believe in what they denied the existence of, Momo goes to an abandoned hospital known for its UFO sightings, and Okarun goes to a tunnel that is said to be haunted. In each place, they encounter overwhelming paranormal entities that defy comprehension. Amid trouble, Momo awakens her hidden power and Okarun gains the power of a curse to challenge the paranormal entities! Could this be the start of a fateful romance as well!?

Now begins a new story of occult battles and adolescence!

Based on the popular manga by Yukinobu Tatsu, DAN DA DAN is an electrifying, action-packed love letter to sci-fi and horror with the heart of a ruthlessly funny teen rom-com. The directorial debut from Fuga Yamashiro is the latest series from cutting-edge animation studio Science SARU (The Colors Within, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off) with pulse-pounding original music from kensuke ushio (Chainsaw Man).
