Dandadanhas taken the anime world by storm with its fresh ideas, hilarious comedy, and spectacular animation, becoming the highlight of this fall anime season. The anime’s popularity is soaring high with each passing episode. Nevertheless, the show has sparked intense debates, driven by fans’ high expectations for every new release, with controversies adding fuel to the ongoing fervor.
Dandadan‘s growing popularity has led to a surge of fan opinions that are spoiling the experience for many viewers. We’ve already seen this happen withMy Hero Academia, where fans went overboard with divisive character romantic and sexual relationships that tarnished the show’s appeal for many casual anime viewers, andDandadancould be heading toward a similar controversy.
IsDandadanHeaded for the Same Controversy That DerailedMy Hero Academia?
DespiteMy Hero Academia‘s controversial epilogue, the anime’s recent season created a significant buzz online.MHASeason 7 marked the end of Deku’s journey and All for One’s final attempt to thwarthumanity’s future and rule above everyone.
The young boy who was often accused as a weakling for being born Quirkless has become the only hope of humanity’s survival against Shigaraki. Throughout Deku’s journey,Kōhei Horikoshiintroduces several terrifying villains and lets all hell break loose–pointing its story toward an ending.
MHASeason 7 has left several fans awe-struck battling a rollercoaster ride of emotions and praying for Heroes’ success.

Nevertheless, Season 7 has become the franchise’s most profitable and fan-favorite season, reminding viewers of the beauty of Horikoshi’s narrative and howflawlessly the anime adaptationbrings it to life.
Season 7 remindedMHAfans why Horikoshi’s work deserves its spot among the Next-gen Big Three. However, a controversial part of the fanbase has caused casual viewers tohesitate in exploring the story.
The overwhelming focus on character shipping has overshadowed the romantic elements, ultimately tarnishing theMHAexperience for many fans. There’s no denying thatMHAfans have taken things too far with their fanart, tarnishing its legacy and diminishing the experience for casual anime fans trying to enjoy Horikoshi’s narrative.
As a result, the series is now being overshadowed by famous titles likeJujutsu Kaisen,Demon Slayer, and potentially evenDandadanin the future. However,Dandadanfans should be concerned, as the latest episode has already sparked significant controversy due to its explicit nudity.
ThoughDandadanpresents Momo and Aira as love rivals, fans are straying from the story by shipping the two, hinting that the series could follow inMHA‘s controversial footsteps. This could lead to theDandadan‘s downfall, as the fanbase becomes too overwhelming, making it difficult for genuine anime fans to stay engaged and ultimately driving them away.
The Real-Life Legend BehindDandadan‘s Acrobatic Silky
Following Episode 7, fans are praising Tatsu’s unique approach to yokai, but they might be surprised to discover that the mangaka drew inspiration from aclassic horror film.
Although Acrobatic Silky’s backstory didn’t offer any flashy action, the quiet, intimatedirection of the flashback sequenceonly added to a tragic story the manga already so impressively told.
Interestingly, Yukinobu Tatsu took inspiration for Acrobatic Silky from a Japanese urban legend, whose chilling origin story could haunt anyone forever, the Acrobatic Sara Sara.

The Acrobatic Sara Sara features a design similar to what would later appear inDandadan, though its origin and story differ. The legend states that anyone who witnesses Sara Sara’s acrobatic performance will be cursed, bringing misfortune or even death.
The somber piano keys courtesy of series composer Kensuke Ushio, mixed seamlessly intoDandadan‘s saddest moment yet. Science Saru deserves praise for their work, but especially in this episode. There is never a dull moment because of the amazingly talented animators on board.
