The schoolgirls backstory with turbo granny was actually quite sad That’s probably also the reason why she’s obsessed with taking your banana off, and she came to save ayase because she’s about to get assaulted so she bit the bananas of the aliens.
Yeah she is an evil spirit and quite ruthless on her scope but not for nothing, even in death she has seen that scenario happen again and again girl after girl
@@Mfchecchia Japanese are very good in making this tipe thing, Spy x Family make this too(Loid manga arc), and Both Spy x Family and Dandadan are created by assistants Fujimoto (Creator of Chainsaw Man and other sucess) PS:Sorry my english.
That crab eating scene at the end had me in stitches. I can't with Momo's face LOL. Also, her voice actor did a FANTASTIC job in this episode; specifically the scene where they fly through the air. It almost sounded like she was actually screaming for her life while flying across the city lmao.
Shion Wakayama has an amazing screaming voice as seen in other anime. It really does give the sense that these are two adolescents thrust into out-of-this-world situations. Two days ago, Momo's biggest problem was breaking up with her jerk boyfriend; now she's running from an Eldritch being going 100 km an hour.
japanese voice actors are consistently goated its why i almost always prefer the sub over english dub. there are good english ones but despite me not knowing the language i always can feel the emotion and passion they put into the role. there was a show where a girl is like ugly crying being interviewed by police after almost dying and i was like like "jesus did they murder this woman's entire family in front of her to get that performance"
Is interesting when we get the information that Turbo Granny visits spots when women are terrible morder and is probably to give confort to this girls for their violent deaths. so if you think about it thats why TG attack the Serpo Aliens even when she was in full control of Okarun, she was protecting a girl from being SA and probably kill
I really love Momo and Okaruns relationship, I don’t think I’ve ever felt this way about an anime. Everything from the VA performances to the witty dialogue I just love them so much😭 Also it was so interesting to me hearing that turbo granny has been consoling the spirits that have not moved on, it immediately made me look at her character differently
There's some origin story abt Turbo Granny that she died and become turbo Grand bcs she died when she try save her grand-daughter who's kidnapped by car/with horse. That's why she run chasing car and caused accident on road
The William Tell Overture, with modern electric drums, leading into Orpheus in the Underworld (the can can) was not on my musical bingo card. It is beautiful and with the adorkableness of these two helps to lighten what is a really heavy episode.
That feeling of smiling the entire time, while another part genuinely tugs (sometimes REAL hard) at the heart strings is what makes the series so outstanding. That's not gonna be goin away anytime soon.
Its crazy because he is running around with a baddie on his back and everyone sees him not grandma. The way this is how they convey his glow up in different ways in awesome.
Just to take note on subtle details people might not easily recognize. The reason why the Location Bound Crab Spirit was attacking the Bear sign is because it triggered some sort PTSD because most of them are victims of being torn apart. The female victims were sexually assaulted, got through accident by getting hit by vehicles on the tunnel or getting torn apart by Bears and Worse, Humans. That's why Turbo Granny sensed Momo Ayase was about to be sexually assaulted by the Serpo Aliens she immediately traveled through phone and "Gobbled their Weenies" so that Ayase won't be Sexually Assulted by them the same way she does to other Predators.
Source??? I really like this interpretation but his this just a head canon theory or has the author stated this somewhere? Cuz my respect for his writing jumps way up if so and I'd like to look more into his stuff.
It's the closest English equivalent. I tried myself to think of better possible translations but even though the Styx isn't a very prevalent concept in the West, I personally can't think of a better alternative translation that would make sense to an English audience. And keeping it as the Sanzu river would be even more confusing for most English speakers. This is one of those localizations I personally don't mind so much since it maintains the context/nuance of the scene.
I am invested in this relationship and I really hope they continue to build upon it and not just stay friends Not many shounen or action anime’s not counting isekai, have a proper relationship it’s usually at most just close friends or unspoken lovers and they never build further upon it
Fun fact, the location-bound spirit’s appearance is based on the heikegani crab, a Japanese crab with a shell that’s patterns resemble human faces. In myth, they were indeed the spirits of actual Taira samurai who perished at the Battle of Dan-no-Ura who had turned themselves into freshwater crabs to cross the Sanzu River. Over time the myth evolved to encompass passing souls in general, though I don’t know why the subtitles implied the River Styx, which is Greek….
In Japanese elementary schools during the Showa era, the music from "William Tell" was played at sports festivals. While this music played, the children would run their hardest and compete. This scene reflects that aspect of Japanese culture.
13:00 Alana, if you haven't seen Tsukimichi, do that. Okarun/Ken's VA as Makoto is practically canon, with the insanely snarky comebacks and attitude snaps. So many folks hear Tanjiro. I hear Makoto. Tanjiro is too sweet a bit for this behavior.
every yokai who related with protagonis has sad back story... i cant wait until brella boy and for me, turbo granny is one of the interesting persona when he become part of journey okarun and the gang, you guys will understand how fun and care she was, until she said... "see ya"
Turbo Granny is not a bad spirit, the bound spirits is the bad one. Turbo granny had enough to console r-ped victims, she start to eat D. even turbo granny agree to rescue momo who is about to get r-ped by the aliens
You dumb fuck. The location-bound spirits were the victims. That's why they were bound there in the tunnel. It's where the bodies were left. Turbo Granny stayed with them to comfort them because they've already coalesced into a giant crab. How are you this unobservant? You and almost all fucking reactors.
I just commented this same thing before reading the comments lol but I kind of went on a much deeper rant about the nuances and my frustrations with Crunchroll's increasingly poor translations/localizations lol
Also, not to be THAT guy, but she didn't say "mata ne." She said "mata ashita." They're very similar but mata ne is more like just a general "see you later/soon/etc." whereas mata ashita means "I will see you tomorrow," (and SPECIFICALLY tomorrow). "Mata" means "again" basically, and "ashita" means "tomorrow." But "ne" is just a Japanese particle that softens a word and makes it more casual.
Not sure if the answer to this question is spoiler but, How did Okarun transform if Turbo Granny returned his dong? Wasn't that why he was cursed and the reason why could use baba's powers?
Turbo granny possessed, as she took the curse away in the tunnel. Previously it was just the curse inside of Okarun not Turbo Granny as Turbo Granny is in the tunnel.
Fair warning; Dandadan knows the exact location of the heart strings and will not only tug, but violently wrench them at times. Also, Granny Seiko is an 80 year old smoker, she seriously needs to drop the skincare routine.
I hate some of the translations in this episode... There was a few throughout that were mostly innocuous. Like when Turbo Granny told Momo to speak properly, she was actually saying something closer to "I can tell you're using English to try and confuse the elderly. Speak proper Japanese, I hate English!" But the one that really bothered me was their translation of Momo and Ken saying goodbye at the end... Momo says the English "bye bye" (which is way more common to hear in Japan funny enough) which is a very casual form of goodbye. But Ken says "sayonara" which TECHNICALLY can be translated as "goodbye," but it's not just any normal kind of goodbye. Sayonara is only ever used when you believe you may never see the other person again. It carries a sense of permanence. Like if a husband is leaving for war, or even what students/teachers say to each other after graduation. IMHO, I believe something like "farewell" is a MUCH closer translation. While farewell and goodbye technically mean the same sort of thing, the connotation of using farewell is also one that's used in similar situations to sayonara. Most English speakers are never going to say "farewell" to a friend that they think they'll see again tomorrow. So when it finally dawned on Momo what Ken actually said, her screaming out "I'll see you tomorrow" was basically her telling Ken "No you dummy, I AM going to see you again, we ARE friends, this isn't a final farewell." But because Crunchyroll decided to translate sayonara as "goodbye," it loses that nuance and kind of just seems a little weird. Like it comes off like they're both questioning whether they even want to say goodbye or if Ken should just stay there or something. And then when she yells "see you tomorrow," it's like what? I mean sure, you could still get the sense she's being reassuring and affirming their friendship, but it doesn't really explain why they were repeating "goodbye" to themselves right before that. It just feels unresolved and I wonder how many English viewers will see this and just chalk it up to a weird Japanese idiosyncrasy or something... Not a huge deal obviously and I probably went on WAY too long about it LOL. I tend to do that sometimes. But I've just been growing more and more frustrated with Crunchroll's anime translations and have grown a bit passionate about pointing it out I guess in the hopes that more awareness will lead to more pressure on them to eventually do better...
There is a fan speculation being shared right now where the reason why granny took his pp is because he's a male, which is the same gender of the suspects who unalive those girls. But her taking his pp actually has nothing to do with his gender and the gender of the people who vayo-lated and unalive those girls. Granny can actually curse both genders. it just so happens that okarun was the one who got cursed by granny. And her talking about gobbling his pp is just part of her foul-mouthed personality, which adds a bit of humor to her character. Also there's no mention where all of the suspects who unalive those girls are all male. She also ask okarun if he wants to suckle her teats, which a person who dislike men would never ask. It's just part of her foul-mouth personality. And another information that is being shared right now is the reason why granny entered the phone in episode 1 is because granny tried saving momo is purely a fan speculation. The truth is, it's just a scene thought by the author of thinking on how he can make momo encounter okarun in his cursed state and momo being saved from the aliens. And the fan speculation would get immediately destroyed if people remembered that granny have been trying to unalive momo since episode 1 and almost vayo-lated her in episode 3. Her consoling the spirit girls is just to make her image look better for obvious future plots that includes her. So the point is, there are scenes where you don't have to think too deeply about the plot and there are crazy fan speculations. But in the end, just enjoy the show.

@Mfchecchia yeah especially that silky lady back story 😢
That explain also why Turbo Luffy...Granny came "By Phone" to help Momo. Granny wanted to help a random girl.
That crab eating scene at the end had me in stitches. I can't with Momo's face LOL.
Also, her voice actor did a FANTASTIC job in this episode; specifically the scene where they fly through the air. It almost sounded like she was actually screaming for her life while flying across the city lmao.
Yea! It honestly reminded me of Bocchi's scream in Bocchi the Rock when she's glitching on the ground 😂

Love how your first thought was eating the crab spirit, very dungeon meshi pilled lol
Its the classic soundtrack that caught me off guard lololol
For me it was crazy, since cancan is in my jogging playlist. This scene just cemented my love for Dan Da Dan
8:10 The William Tell Overture chase scene was probably my favorite part of the episode.
thanks for the reaction! great episode, but oh my god, the cat jumpscares during intence moments!... wasn't ready for them.. scary...
DUDE WAIT TILL THE REST OF THE FRIENDS JOING THE GROUP! The slice of life becomes the best there is. PERIOD.
Momo is smart here
The art picks up
The craziness went tenfold
This is the part where i become a fan of the manga ❤❤❤
Man and this was the slow arc from what I remember lol
5:36 This part is funny in dub cause he calls ayase "babe" lol
"Bad news babe" 😭🙏
Chaos is the right term for DanDanDan lol
Awww. I love the guest appearance of your cat. ♥
The pace in this episode is crazy. I thought I wouldn’t be able to catch up if I blink my eyes
5:21 it’s actually not the River Styx. It’s the River Sanzu (or something). Basically the Buddhist or Shinto version of the river Styx.
It's the closest English equivalent. I tried myself to think of better possible translations but even though the Styx isn't a very prevalent concept in the West, I personally can't think of a better alternative translation that would make sense to an English audience. And keeping it as the Sanzu river would be even more confusing for most English speakers. This is one of those localizations I personally don't mind so much since it maintains the context/nuance of the scene.
The William Tell overture has always given me chills, but this was a new level of goosebumps.
I love how the black cat became concerned and checked on her mommy.
The running OST, I already love this show so much.
14:26 as a manga reader i can tell u this anime will make people cry buckets.
"Idk whats happening" even the author of dandadan doesnt know whats happening. He just draws whatever he wants and then gives it a story😅
I am invested in this relationship and I really hope they continue to build upon it and not just stay friends
Not many shounen or action anime’s not counting isekai, have a proper relationship it’s usually at most just close friends or unspoken lovers and they never build further upon it
Trust me you will not be disappointed about their relationship the manga is peak.

It's Comedians' Galop, the song they also used in FLCL!
the fact that the running scene with the music was mostly an anime original is so cool
We can really tell when studio was having too much fun working on a show, this one is a perfect example 😂
peak da peak strikes again
Totally makes sense why they debuted this show with a 4 Episode premiere in a movie theater. Such a satisfying arch
actually it was 3 episode premiere.... they shoulda done 4 episode though woulda loved to see this in episode in the theater
Thanks a lot for your great reaction 😆...this ep main assignment is Mokochan (the subdirector), it is for real of Science SARU !🤩
i hoping next.

Best action (alongside kagurabachi), best slice of life, best romance, best wackiness (alongside one piece), best backstories.
granny pirate😂
luffy voice 😭
So sayonara is more like a big good bye, people use it for teachers when they are graduating.
Matane is more casual like, see you later.
yeah, 'sayonara' implies a farewell with the likelihood of never meeting again
I just commented this same thing before reading the comments lol but I kind of went on a much deeper rant about the nuances and my frustrations with Crunchroll's increasingly poor translations/localizations lol

Nah we just getting started 😅
Not sure if the answer to this question is spoiler but, How did Okarun transform if Turbo Granny returned his dong? Wasn't that why he was cursed and the reason why could use baba's powers?
It's spoiler
Oh wait no. For the episode, it's because Granny is possessing Okarun. Which Momo can control much easier.
The dong stealing is just part of the curse. Putting Granny's aura (which Momo controlled) inside Dong-man and taking his dingdong is his curse
Turbo granny possessed, as she took the curse away in the tunnel. Previously it was just the curse inside of Okarun not Turbo Granny as Turbo Granny is in the tunnel.
Niceee
