English dubb please next time y’all disappoint me
yikes
Hey Normies. I just want to say if you want to be an accessible channel, please do dubs for anime. Your content is entirely unavailable to people who have a hard time reading because they listen while doing chores or are visually impaired.
I wish you guys took that into consideration because a lot of people would love to enjoy your content.
Nope, sub is more good
Dub watchers the type of ppl to say their favorite burger is a big mac 😅
btw Ken Takakura is such a household name in Japan, what Dandadan does here is akin to naming its protagonist "Clint Eastwood". The fact that Okarun has a name like this is less like "wow what a funny coincidence", and more like "bro who names their child that"
There are people named "Michael Jackson" and "Michael Jordan" in this world so I can 100% believe someone who has the last name "Takakura" would do that
@@PettyCrow-n9cthere’s people named Naruto and Goku cuz their parents were anime fans lol
I feel like a more apt comparison would be being named something like Chris Evans, as both the given and family name aren't as uncommon as Clint's.
@@JalarenZarrus If the popularity comparison were more comparable to that of Ken Takakura in Japan, probably
@@JalarenZarruswhen it comes to the name sure but the joke is also that Ken Takakura is a type of man that no longer exists, so any modern actor doesn't fit for the joke.
They are both protagonists .
Momo is using her powers to reinforce herself, allowing her to tank those hits .
Ken takakura was a famous actor in the 60s/70s .
Momo and her friends are gyaru types and the one girl is a specific type called Ganguro
Watching it in sub? W
@@Xemnas283 I've been watching both versions but I do prefer sub
@@Touma_S Meant to reply to Normies but yeah sub is the way
@@Xemnas283no problem
more specifically, another subset of ganguro called mamba gyaru
btw, Turbo Granny's VA is Mayumi Tanaka, who is known for voicing Luffy.
One of the Serponians is voiced by Zoro too
@@VladdViever *Serpoians
And Ken(Okarun) is voiced by Tanjiro’s VA
They dont know who are they
Also if I'm not mistaken, the Flatwoods Alien is voiced by Crocodile 🤔
Fujimoto had 4 assistance, 3 of which went on to make Spy Family, Hell’s Paradise (if i remember correctly) and Dandadan
The 4th one is making Centuria, which is pretty decent so far but too early to tell if it'll have the same staying power as the other three. Something about the others are just magic.
That reminds me they need to watch Hell's Paradise
He must be very proud
@@thelittlepixel_4798 shit I would be if all of my successors were as talented (if not more) than myself
As it turns out, Fujimoto is the Master Splinter for mangakas
I think everyone’s reaction was the same when Okarun revealed his name to be the same name as the guy Ayase has a crush on and that explosion behind her was perfect 😱😂
*Ayase
ken takakura the famous actor
和〜志保M33333333333333333333333❤
The explosion was literally her mind getting blown 🤣🤣
Its awesome because the explosion is fun fact anime-original. Love how everything is adapted!
iirc the author is a former assistant of Fujimoto the author of Chainsaw Man
Yes he is
The author for DandaDan made such amazing panels for chainsaw man, an incredible artist
he carried that s hiet
@@YellowYellowColourhe worked on fire punch. Fake fan!!!
Bro stop riding Fukimoto so hard, let my boy out his shadow 😭
“The grandma is the cat!” They were right AND wrong at the same time. 😂
Ken Takakura, Japan's Clint Eastwood, He was the epitome of cool and charisma, a movie star who captivated millions of fans with his stoic and brooding style. He played as an outlaw or a Stoic hero and his Stoic, brooding personality was very attractive to people.
Why does everyone relate him to Clint Eastwood specifically?
With the aliens I would imagine they heard “banana” used to refer to a penis before and just thought it meant “genitals” in general rather than a specific type of genitals.
They 100% just heard some teenagers through waves, and thought, well, that's genitals!! That's so funny...
lol never couldve imagined Luffy saying "let me gobble that weenie" to Tanjiro and Zoro saying "give us your banana" ,hahahah this is just absudlh good
The school girl at the beginning with the raccoon eyes is wearing gyaru makeup. It's an extremely dramatic makeup style but really cool too
That girl looks like one of the Four Lord of Pastimers :D (Asobi Asobase - episode 4)
You saved me a post! Thanks! Gyaru are the Japanese equivalent of our Valley Girls. "Gyaru" is Japanese slang for "gal". They are also known for partying and clubbing, being rather provocative, being flirtatious, and unwinding and having fun.
I'm surprised they didn't seem to know what gyarus are lol
@@thecomradewarda Well that's what I meant, they've watched plenty of anime, I assume they know some things about Japanese culture
Not an attack, just found it funny that's all
at first I thought she had vitiligo
They’re both the protagonist. They’re deuteragonist ones not more of a protagonist than the other. Certain arcs one gets more shin than the others but it just depends on where the story is going.
I would argue Momo is more focused on than Okarun. The story started from her perspective and we know more about her than him. There are arcs without Okarun but so far Momo has been present for most of the plot
@@billlee3851I agree with you
Basically the author said they are both equal protagonists but Momo gets a bit more attention from him@billlee3851
@billlee3851 yeah idk why people don't just admit Momo is the main character.
@@danlyday7248 I think people can't accept the fact that a female is a mc
The girl is doing Ganguro makeup, a subtype of Gyaru fashion.
Gyaru is a fashion subculture that's considered to be nonconformist and a rebellion against Japanese social and aesthetic standards during a time when women were expected to be housewives and fit Asian beauty standards of pale skin and dark hair. Its popularity peaked in the 1990s and early 2000s. They are also known for partying and clubbing, being rather provocative, being flirtatious, and generally being delinquents.
Ganguro is a gyaru style with artificially deep tanned skin and bleached hair, and makeup which tended to use white around the eyes and on the lips, and darker shades of color are sometimes seen on the eyes of ganguro. But white is the most often used eyeshadow for this substyle. Also, decorations such as glitter or flowers, such as hibiscus flower stickers, are added under the eyes. Basically takes the core aspect of Gyaru fashion and exaggerates it to a ridiculous degree. This style was popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
You guys already know about Turbo Granny (at least the Urban Legend), Mob and Reigen did go to a similar tunnel once, but found an actual old lady running.
Also, same as Mob taking hits, we can assume Momo protects herself with her powers.
yup! i recently rewatched s2 of mob and saw that turbo granny was called dash granny there haha
I have no idea about this urban legend.
@@vars1449 she chases cars, they may crash on the road
one thing I like about the dub version is that it somehow translates the original meanings better than the subtitles do in a few scenes.
Both are really good though
also gofer is essentially a person that runs errands or chores for another person
My problem with English dub in shows like this is that there are certain mannerisms and ways of speaking that Japanese voice actors can do that English voice actors simply can't
@@robertsalfelder8111 sure, but as someone who doesn't understand Japanese I won't be catching those anyway
@@TechnoArpanI dont understand Japanese either but I do know what good acting is
Dubbed is so trash shouldn’t exist
not being able to understand Japanese inherently means you can't tell if the acting is good or not to the same level as you can with English voice overs. You still can to some extent, but there is a disconnect that prevents you from recognizing certain nuances in each performance compared to English.
Dandadan is pretty good with both versions, but other anime has "issues" with both, you just can't hear it when it's Japanese.
“You can’t go ghost hunting at like 2 P.M. That’s just…trespassing.”
Funny and True😂
They're both main characters, but Mono is the protagonist. It'll probably become more clear as it goes on, but Momo despite having the least flashing powers of the cast is the one that carries the story forward.
Not flashy but so op lol
I felt like it was pretty obvious with the story starting with Momo and all.
Turbo Granny is an actual urban legend, a modern yokai.
Flatwoods Monster is also an actual cryptid.
Some actors from both sub and dub y'all might know
Sub: Turbo Granny is Mayumi Tanaka aka Monkey D. Luffy, the Serpos are Kazuya Nakai aka Roranoa Zoro, and Okarun is Natsuki Hanae aka Tanjiro Kamado.
Dub: Momo is Abby Trott aka Nezuko Kamado, Seiko (Momo's grandma) is Kari Wahlgreen aka Fuu from Samurai Champloo and Haruka from FLCL, and Turbo Granny is Barbara Goodson aka Rita Repulsa from Power Rangers, Mother Talzin from Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Naota from FLCL
Both casts are great so thought I'd share.
And I feel like Ken(dub) is Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach when he controls turbo granny's powers. I was surprised when I heard his voice.
@lewankhan83 I looked it up and it says the same guy voices him with and without powers
Personally I watched both sub and dub and I genuinely like both versions. The English dubbed VA’s sound like they’re having fun and they do a good job. A.J Beckles does a really good job.
Yeah, we'll need to see how it is when the core cast gets a bit bigger, but so far the dub is just as enjoyable as the sub.
The girl in the beginning with the weird makeup is a Ganguro Gyaru type girl. Weird subculture, haha.
Ever since the first teaser of this anime it’s been my new obsession since I didn’t even know it existed before that, and im in love with it now. So opening RUclips like 3 minutes ago and seeing you guys watched it was the BEST Friday treat I could have asked for
Shonen is target audience is young boy, seinen is for young men, shojo is for young girls, seiji is for young women. And suraj… isekai is main character gets transported to another world
I thought you would continue with "And suraj is for young..."
I've always heard manga targeted at young women referred to as jōsei, not seiji. Maybe they're interchangeable, or maybe I'm entirely confused on the matter.
Isn’t it Josei for women
@@kevinb5417 josei is correct; seiji is not a real demographic. also, the o in josei is not a long vowel, unlike shōjo.
@@baileyk I knew that but I'm so used to elongating the first vowel in shōnen and shōjo that I did it out of habit lol.
The girl at 4:17 is actually a Gyaru, a popular alternative style in Japan mostly recognised around tanning, and big eye makeup
So far this is probably the best adaptation anyone could've asked for! It's an instant classic, i can just tell ❤
Both Momo and Ken are the main characters, and in case you are wondering how Momo survived against those attacks it's pretty simple she just surrounds herself with her pychic power to have an armor for some reason the anime didn't showed that
The manga didn’t show it either. It’s just implied.
I do find it kinda funny that for most of these types of shows, when boys are thrown around and hit ppl shrug it off as just cartoon physics/their power. But if it happens to a girl it’s suddenly unrealistic.
There really is an innate bias
The manga never gave a “look” to Momo’s powers till around the second arc.
@@BelBelle468 there's no bias dude shut up
@@BelBelle468 not most of the time. it depends on the show.
@@hashshashiin.forsīwhat would be the exception then? What action focused, battle shounen, male demographic focused treats the girls equally?
What series have the boys and girls hit with force and it be seen as the same?
6:24 Idk if anyone has mentioned, but the big door is a fire door. The wall with the door rotaes so that it can close up the area in case of fire and prevent fire from spreading.
If anything, y'all should watch both the sub and dub. I really like this dub a lot. Not only is it accurate, the voice acting is very good too
Dub is better ❤
The mangaka for Dan Da Dan was an assistant to Chainsaw Man mangaka funnily enough
Fujimoto had many assistant writers, in which all branched out to be popular themselves.
Yeah some are hells paradise and spy x family. @@Official-OpenAI
@@Official-OpenAI I wouldn't say they "branched out" from him. If anything they were probably the ones that mentored Fujimoto since most of them had been making manga since the 2000s.
Make sense, it explain why is so sexual.
@@denickart Specially considering that Fujimoto is quite young for a mangaka, like, the guy is 31 right now and has been making manga for big magazines for years. He began Fire Punch, his first big work, when he was just 23, after making several one shots. All of his assistants were much older and experienced than him, but we also have to consider the possibility that Fujimoto inspired them to make their own works, considering how all of them started mangas after working with him.
Rare Mickey appearance
I thought he said he was quitting reactions why is he still here?
@Oneofhisravens maybe he changed his mind 🤔
@@Oneofhisravens He quit reactions, to go do reactions of memes pretty much LMAO
Quiet! Don't interrupt Mickey showing how good and moral he is.
@@Oneofhisravens he said he'd quit doing them regularly.
6:46 sudden Farnsworth: “Oh yes”
An ad for some reason “It’s difficult to put into words the horrors we witnessed today here-“
Okarun's dub VA is AJ Beckles...cool dude too🔥
Shounen is for young boys Seinen is for Young Man Shoujo is for young girls and Josei is for older women
Lastly Isekai means another world basically the main character gets transported into another world
So what's the genre/term for older men?
@@hashshashiin.forsī Seinen covers older men. It would be anything from Young adults and up. Maybe like 21+. Shounen is more for teenage boys. Most of the heroes in WSJ are around 15.
I was kinda hoping they'd go dub like usual on this one. Actually has a really good one and i havent seen any reactors watching it
This is going to be anime of the year
this or tybw cour 3
Fr, or TYBW cour 3, Mashle, or MHA S7
This, ReZero S3, Bleach... Idk there's so many good stuff.
Agreed
11:05 "SPIRAL! SPIRAL"
I can't man, that was actually great
TWO EPISODES IN ONE GO???!!?! I’ve prayed for days like this. I’m so happy rn 😭😭😭💖💖💖💖
Micky getting gaslighted by himself into Sub is so funny I love him 😅
Mickey was frozen with a face of disgust for almost half the episode😂
Just to tell you. DanDaDan goes crazy and even more than just your typical duo.
So glad you guys are watching Dandadan! Also been a minute since I had a show I wanted to watch you guys react to, so I'm happy to see Mickey is back and hope he is all well and good!
they have/had 2 versions of the subbed and i think this one is being pushed on crunchyroll or whatever most reactors use but the grandma kept saying "Dong" instead of "weenie" and in the beginning when ken says "I know your in love" the other version he said "I Know what you're into" and stuff like that just made more sense for the context
This show is gonna be amazing, adaptation is perfection from the manga. The fan service will drasticly tone down but the weirdness will keep suprising you every single time. Don't know how, but the author somehow balanced so many genres in one. The chemistry between the two mc is soo good, perfect match!
so early there's no thumbnail yet lol
Funf fact: Turbo Granny is a real urban legend that dates really way back. Drivers who go through tunnels would often see an old woman speeding either behind them or next to them, looking very angry. She swaps between being on a bicycle and sometimes in a car.
It’s actually good that they waited for two episodes 😅
in the manga you can see the special effect of the kinetic barrier on Momo's body, that's why she is slightly protected, not crushed
Glad y’all are having such a fun time with it! Gosh this is such a crazy but fun show.
The "Giant Door" is an emergency shutter for fires or other reasons they may need to close off a section or stairwell. All schools and a lot of buildings have them in Japan. They swing not slide in most cases. They create an almost airtight block so for example there is a fire in a hallway, once its safe you close the door to the stairwell and it prevents smoke and fire from entering the evacuation route :p
47:00 in sumo, if you force your opponent to touch the ground with anything other than the soles of their feet, it's also a win.
Momo was referencing the bullies as scum, not the poor guy 😭
Glad to see you back Mickey, missed you brother. Feel lucky to have you back for a series, hope you're doing well!!
Fun fact: Turbo granny made an appearance in mob psycho lol 😂
I actually really like the dub for this
Right! I was really impressed, up there with AoT dub
The whole conversation about dub/sub viewership was so funny to me cause typically I watch sub but it automatically played in dub on Netflix and I really enjoyed it.
@@midnitehour1 same!
Yeah Occult-kun's VA IS Tanjiro's VA
31:15 Nah that ghost dreadlock story has actually legit spooked me😂😂😂😂 that shouldn't be normal😂
So, without spoiling, I will say:
I think she lived, because as you said she has her "chi" protection on that dampens the physical effects.
And he gets beaten often when he is partially transformed, which probably gives him some of Turbo Granny's durability.
And of course "Ken Takakura" was a famous Japanese actor IRL. She might have had crush on him, because she watched old movies (maybe with her granny?) and his parents maybe already had a last name of "Takakura" and decided to name their son after famous actor.
He has Tanjiro from Demon Slayer VA, while I know her voice from Lycoris Recoil.
And AFAIK, though I'm not certain, so don't quote me on that - first episode seems to be "gatekeeping" episode. Showing the "worst" that can happen in a series. In uncomfortable way. It basically says: "This is the ceiling of how uncomfortable it gets, most of the series won't be like that, but it can be as uncomfortable at times. Also shows that this is despite it being Shounen a show that doesn't shy away from adult topics. Though episode 1 is as explicit as it's gonna get. If it were more, it would have to be classified as erotica for adults - "Ecchi", which IIRC is how you pronounce "Latin alphabet" for "H". Which is used as a sign that it is "perverted" - "Hentai" in Japanese. I probably omitted one or two steps between "Ecchi" and now American slang word "Hentai", but this is approximately where the term comes from.
I really don't remember the Manga, when I was reading it, it was soon after it started. But I do remember (very generally talking about Manga) that characters are great and that there is a lot of action, but also a lot of character development. And it is quite wholesome despite having adult topics and having a lot of action. That's all I remember for sure.
I will have to re-read it. Either once Anime is done airing or honestly I want to read it whole as soon as possible.
Very good reaction BTW.
Dang was hoping yall would do dub. I can’t read it and fallow along while I’m doing other things at the same time. Plus the voice actors are actually really good.
Never read the manga, watched the first 2 episodes..now obsessed with Dandadan. The characters’ dynamics are so cool, love how cute & funny they are, show is weird af to top it off!
4:44 "leave him alone" 👽
10:52 she knew something was coming got spooked looked around to check if someone noticed and gets spooked still 2 sec later . . .perfect
Ken was voiced by Tanjiro's VA, Turbo Granny was voiced by Luffy's VA and the alien was voiced by Zoro's VA.
So much good voice's actors
Spidey usually the chill guy 11:08 but turbo granny makes Spidey react and freeze like this 🤣🤣🤣
The Eng dub was actually really good 😭
@@kcstackers9767 that's what most english speakers always say, because they get hurt when they hear a diferent language
@@Bellial87 I never said the Japanese dub was bad or that the Eng dub is better, all I said was that the Eng dub was good 😑
@@Bellial87Hating English dubs simply because it's in English is wild fam. Some people have a much easier time consuming Media when the characters are actually speaking the native language of the viewer. others just legitimately like the VAs. I guess Japan should stop dubbing English shows into Japanese and nobody should be able to hear things in their own language
@@Bellial87You literally just made up words they never said and made yourself mad about it
@@Bellial87 most people like both but just prefer to ACTUALLY understand what they’re listening to because it helps add a connection to the characters. Never understood the hate for wanting to hear your own language lmao especially when it’s an animation packed show where you want to watch everything on screen while not reading
The girl is a Gyaru, the one with all the makeup in case y’all didn’t know
For sumo the rule is getting pushed out of the ring or anything except the soles of your feet touching the ground. So touching the ground with your hand, arm, etc are all ways to lose.
45:20 that post-transformation scene is way funnier in dub, in sub it’s just a voice change with yo in the subtitles.
Wow I’ve never been this early lol. I’ve never watched this so I’ll have to give it a shot. I actually don’t like it when people do this lol but I also have a show I’d like to recommend - The Untamed. Ive never recommended anything before but it’s a C-drama. You guys gave the first ep a shot once due to a request, but guaranteed, I don’t even like C-dramas and this is my favorite show to this day by a long shot even though I watched it 6 years ago. I don’t think you guys liked it so much but it was your first watch and since it’s a C-drama - different to other shows you guys watch - it would take a few episodes getting used to. It went absolutely viral in China and is the number 1 drama there - and went viral around the world too. The show itself is insane, deeply emotional and beautiful - I can’t depict it in words. The scenery, the action, the plot, the relationships, the writing, the music - it’s all a 1000/10. I truly and deeply recommend. Personally, I do not think you’ll regret it. Hope you’ll give my rec a thought!
Momo and Okarun share the protagonist spot pretty well. Like, together. She's the main character, but Okarun is the main focus type thing
I am so happy you guys are watching Dan Da Dan! I've been reading the manga since the beginning and it's one of my favorites. The anime has been a top notch adaptation so far.
YES! I did not know if you guys would react to it im so happy
When the aliens say "your bananas" they are referring to the human race in general, not Momo, since they have no male genitalia themselves, they want to obtain them
I always watch subbed I'm really digging TurboGranny/Ken in english.
cant believe no one noticed okurans sub voice is tanjiro LOL
The dub is so good too though I wish you guys heard more of okuran. His voice is so perfect 😭😭
45:10 From here on out, you can see Jojo homages everywhere.
The character's atmosphere and the way he says his lines with "yo~" at the end are very similar to Jotaro.
48:16 "You pissed me off " is one of Jotaro's signature phrase.
The show and the manga feel so ADHD coded 😂. I love the intro because it matches the vibe of the show.
Both the sub and dub are pretty great.
The Serpos true form are somewhat inspired by an enemy Kaiju from Ultraman called Dada
"GIVE HIM BACK HIS THINGY!" Will live in my head rent free for a very long time
Man... First time I watched this and when I heard those first Turbo Granny's lines I lost it 😂
Shounen = Young Boy/Teen Boy demographic it’s not a genre, just the demographic it’s aimed towards.
Seinen = Young Men/Adult Men demographic
Shoujo = Young Girl/Teen Girl demographic
Josei = Young Women/Adult Women demographic
Isekai = Means “Another World” a genre that refers to a story where the character is taken to a new world.
11:06 Zoro is so lost he voices the alien. It's funny the turbo granny is voicing Luffy 😂
Just so you know an easy way to differentiate between the shounen(boys)/seinen(men)/shoujo(girl)/josei(women) : Everything comes down to the magazine that they are publish. If the magazine that the manga was publish identify its self as 'shounen' then every manga that they publish will be a shounen.
For example, 'Black Butler' is a manga created by a women known for making doujinshin aimed at women and that is mostly popular between women, however, the magazine where is publish is a shounen so the manga and anime are shounen. Another example is Precure(or almost any magical girl show) which is a shoujo but is extremely popular with men.
20:31 The aliens in this series are actually based on the monster kaiju from Ultraman. In fact almost every alien and supernatural creature are based on urban legends and references to pop culture and mythology.
I'm so glad you guys are reacting to this
It's never too late to the Dandadan party! Just keep a sharp eye on your bananas at all times.
who the f told you guys this is like chainsawman? 😂
yuki tatsunobo was just a former assistant for Fujimoto during his Fire Punch serialization, he wasn't an assistant during chainsawman.
The cut to Professor Fondsworth had me rolling.....😂
the biggest reason the manga stood up for me is because the characterization of Momo & Okarun... you have the leade female character having an equal mixture of strong & soft parts but doesn’t feel forced or preachy. You have the leading man having past issues & still not properly over it but boi does he have a spine to stand still if he gets pushed hard
This is Fire ,yo...Can't wait for the upcoming episodes,yo...
Apparently the Turbo Granny is a real Japanese urban legend lmao
im pretty sure it was mentioned in mob psycho too

Meh, not hard to guess it. It's obvious Okarun needed a way to keep his powers without the grandma in the way.
Pretty cool how aliens count as spiritual evil and misfortune 🤔
The dub is actually extremely good for dandadan
“I want to get in a bar fight all of a sudden” is such a vibe lmao
the way Navi and Suraj go hands out and open to clucthin their pearls @10:58 in sync is hilarious
Surprised you guys ain't watching the Dub since its being Simuldub on Netflix
Bruh dandadan deserve anime of the year 2024 awards !
