Synopsis
of Dandadan
After
being aggressively rejected, Momo Ayase finds herself angry when she bumps into
a boy who is being bullied. Saved by her reckless kindness, the occult-obsessed
boy tries to talk to her about supernatural interests he believes they share.
Rejecting her claims, Ayase proclaims that she is, instead, a believer in
ghosts, starting an argument between them over which one is real. In a bet to
determine who is right, the two decide to separately visit places related to
the occult and the supernatural: Ayase visits the former and the boy the
latter.
When the
two arrive at their respective places, it turns out that neither of them was
wrong and that both the occult and ghosts exist. This marks the beginning of
the adventure of Ayase and the boy, who shares a name with Ayase's favorite
idol, Ken Takakura, as they try to fix the surreal supernatural and sci-fi
elements around them to return to a normal life.
