Dandadan Expands Early U.S. Release Thanks to Its Success

As a seasoned anime enthusiast with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that the upcoming release of DAN DA DAN has me more excited than a cat on a hot tin roof! With its unique blend of romance, humor, and supernatural elements, this series promises to be a delightful rollercoaster ride for fans like myself.


Fans of the highly anticipated anime “DAN DA DAN” will get a sneak peek before its official launch this Fall, as an early release is set to hit theaters nationwide in the U.S., all thanks to enthusiastic fans. Despite being one of the most eagerly awaited new fall anime releases, fans have been on edge waiting to see how Yukinobu Tatsu’s original manga series will be brought to life on screen. However, some fortunate fans have already had a glimpse into this new anime series due to its early screening in U.S. theaters. Now, that opportunity has been extended even further.

DAN DA DAN: The First Encounter kicked off the initial three episodes of its new anime series before the full release in October, thanks to GKIDS who screened it in theaters ahead of schedule. The premiere was such a hit that it surpassed expectations during its opening weekend, prompting GKIDS to prolong the theatrical run for another week at certain cinemas. For more information and additional showtimes, head over to the announcement by GKIDS below.

Don’t miss out! Some theaters are now offering additional screenings for the movie “DAN DA DAN: FIRST ENCOUNTER” throughout the weekend. Grab your tickets while they last!

What Is DAN DA DAN?

As a passionate fan, I can’t help but share my excitement about the upcoming anime adaptation of “DAN DA DAN,” originally penned by Yukinobu Tatsu. This manga made its digital debut on Shueisha’s Jump+ app in 2021 and has since been eagerly awaited by fans worldwide.

The voice cast currently includes the likes of Shion Wakayama as Momo Ayase, Natsuki Hanae as Okarun (whose real name is Ken Takakura), Mayumi Tanaka as Turbo-Granny, Kazuya Nakai as Alien Serpo, Nana Mizuki as Seiko, Ayane Sakura as Aira Shiratori, Kaito Ishikawa as Jiji (real name Jin Enjoji), Ryuzaburo Otomo as Flatwoods Monster, Kikuko Inoue as Acrobatic Silky, Tomokazu Seki as Dover Demon, Tomokazu Sugita as Taro, Fumi Hirano as Hana. Creepy Nuts will be performing the opening theme for the anime, “Otokone” and ZUTOMAYO will be providing the ending theme, “TAIDADA.”

Why You Should Watch DAN DA DAN

One of the highly anticipated new anime shows for Fall 2024 is DAN DA DAN. This show has generated a lot of excitement due to several compelling reasons. Firstly, its production team and studio are exceptionally skilled in animation, adding life to the series. Secondly, the narrative at its heart incorporates various intriguing elements that will appeal to fans. The story features a central romance between the main characters as they embark on more adventures together throughout the series. Additionally, it introduces an expanded cast filled with interesting and humorous characters.

A big part of the show’s charm lies in its unpredictability. You never know what will unfold during each episode since it features both aliens and ghosts as monsters. Each week brings something new for Momo and Okarun to handle, making it an exciting experience every time. If you get a chance to watch the theatrical version in your area before its TV debut in a few weeks, I highly recommend it because of how well it has performed so far.
