What to Expect from Dandadan Season 2?
After an amazing start with Episodes 1 and 2 (even thoughsome fans didn’t like a few things),Dandadan Season 2seems more promising than ever. Although there were small changes in the direction with Góngora joining the main staff, the first episodes keep a similar tone to the previous season, and the quality of the animation is impressive so far. Fans loved the introduction of Evil Eye in Episode 2 (he actually appeared last season during a flashback).
Life’s tough and your folks ain’t fit to care for you. If it weren’t for us taking pity on you, you’d be out on the street living out of a box.

The next episode will be the last episode featured in theDandadan: Evil Eyemovie, so everything that comes after it will be totally new to everyone. But with this solid start, fans can rest assured that this season will be evenbetter than the first one.
