Dandadan Explodes on Netflix With Latest Ratings Report

As a dedicated anime enthusiast with over two decades of immersion in the genre, I can confidently say that 2024 has been a remarkable year for anime and manga adaptations, but none have captured my heart quite like the enchanting world of Dandadan. The latest episode, which documents the origin story of Acrobat Silky, is undoubtedly one of the most moving and captivating stories I’ve witnessed in my lifelong journey through the anime realm. It’s a tale that resonates with viewers on a profound level, transcending the boundaries of language and culture.


In 2024, the anime series Dandadan has been praised by many fans as the best episode in the medium. Despite its initial focus on massive battles and comical scenes during its first season, the latest episode featuring Momo and Okarun’s journey stood out for creating a heartwrenching segment that left viewers in tears. Currently, Dandadan can be streamed on multiple platforms, but Netflix has recently published a report demonstrating its growing popularity on their platform. Although a second season hasn’t been officially announced yet, this new data suggests that the story of Okarun and Momo may continue with the first season.

Currently, fans of anime in North America have the opportunity to watch “Dandadan” on Netflix, Hulu, and Crunchyroll. Given the immense popularity of the original manga prior to its anime adaptation, it’s logical that these platforms would be eager to host Science SARU’s latest production. The series has already made a significant impact with its seventh episode, causing ripples throughout the anime community. In crafting an origin story for the spirit called Acrobat Silky, SARU has produced an anime episode that could potentially set the bar not just for “Dandadan”, but for the anime world as a whole.

Dandadan is a Netflix King

According to a recent update from Netflix, the anime series “Dandadan” has climbed its way to become the third most-watched non-English television show on the platform. Currently, it’s only behind “The Cage: Season 1” and “Murder Midnfully: Season 1”. From November 4th to November 10th, the series managed to attract over three million viewers, demonstrating its growing popularity on Netflix. What sets this achievement apart is that “Dandadan” is outperforming well-established anime series such as “Demon Slayer: The Hashira Training Arc” and “Dragon Ball Daima”, which currently hold the 7th and 10th spots respectively in terms of viewership.

According to reports, the first season of Dandadan consists approximately of twelve episodes, which means anime enthusiasts have already passed the midpoint in the shonen series’ initial run. Fortunately, there are significant moments left to unfold as manga readers watch some of the series’ most exciting scenes being animated. Although no official announcement has been made about a second season, it appears likely that characters Momo and Okarun will make a comeback on screen.

Dandadan Season 2

Although the specific return of the shonen series hasn’t been announced yet, there are plenty of stories from the original manga that could support numerous future seasons. Meanwhile, creator Yukinobu Tatsu continues work on Dandadan, recently publishing chapter 174 of Momo and Okarun’s eerie adventure. Given that series like My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen concluded their mangas this year, Dandadan is poised to take over and potentially become the most popular shonen series currently releasing new content.

It’s quite intriguing to imagine Netflix adopting the strategies of “One Piece” and “Avatar: The Last Airbender” by producing a live-action TV series for Dandadan. Bringing these characters and their supernatural adversaries into our everyday world would undoubtedly catch many eyes.
