"Dan Da Dan delivers a stunning Momokarun episode in its latest installment"
In the latest episode of Dan Da Dan Season 2, titled "Feeling Kinda Gloomy," the show delves into both character growth and supernatural conflict.
Momo Ayase, the show's protagonist, takes on an awkward part-time job at a café, set up by her friends. Despite her protests, Okarun stays to walk her home, showing his care and support. Momo, however, sends him away, struggling with the long hours and unwelcome customers at the café.
Meanwhile, Jiji, another character in the show, struggles to control the evil spirit "Evil Eye" within him. Seiko and Miro help him practice containment techniques, using triggers like room temperature liquids but instructing mental focus to suppress the spirit’s power. Jiji shows improved control by imagining steam coming out rather than giving in to the spirit.
The episode also highlights the emotional complexity of their situation as Okarun trains to confront Evil Eye. After an emotional moment where Jiji mourns the spirit’s lost chance to fulfill a childhood wish, Okarun faces the danger with intensified resolve.
The tone shifts from intense supernatural action towards lighter, character-driven moments such as Momo’s job struggles and her growing bond with Okarun. This blend of romance and friendship adds depth to the storyline.
Jiji's internal battle and Okarun’s training with Evil Eye form a significant part of the episode, but they are balanced with Momo’s personal experiences. This balance deepens relationships and builds tension for future encounters with Evil Eye.
In addition, the episode features a montage of Momo's workday, adapted from a few panels into a full-blown montage, underscored by Frédéric Chopin’s "Nocturne in E Flat Major." The opening montage adds a touch of melancholy to Momo's struggles.
Momo and Okarun share a moment where they accidentally hold hands, hinting at the growing bond between them. The episode also showcases their growing interest in each other’s hobbies, with Momo performing Ultraman poses and Okarun reading a manga of Ashita No Joe while practicing boxing.
