Yo lo veo teniendo como 15-18 episodios

Y si la temporada 3 abarca 24 episodios, entonces ya tendríamos de lleno la arco de la obdusman y la capítulo 24 finalizaría con la capítulo 128 donde está la "despedida" de Mai y Rin, y Haci tendríamos una final emotiva y después del ending, tendríamos una escena extra donde Rin decide irse a su casa en lugar de ir a la cena de la pandilla, sin embargo, rin en el fondo, quiere estar en esa fiesta y empieza a pensar en las veces que ignoro a okarun cuando okarun estaba siendo bulliado, Rin siente arrenpentimiento y decide ir a la cena de la pandilla a manera de disculpa hacia okarun porque ella(Rin) ignoraba la bully, Pero luego aparece de frente Mai de frente haciendo que Rin se espante de la susto y de forma cómica y se caiga a la sueño y Mai termina diciendo, "Rin, ya lo decidí" y nos corta la escena dejando a los fans que solo ven la anime con una criffgander sobre quien es esa yokai extraña y porque conoce a Rin

Pero si la anime termina con la arco de l@s Grobalistas y no llega más allá de allí, entonces, terminarían con la pandilla volviendo a casa, preparándo la cena Pero mal de ojo, viendo a okarun que ya se recuperó, le reta a pelear(cronologícamente aún siguen en martes) y al final, vemos una lucha increíblemente coreografíada y con animación sublime de okarun en su forma de turbo vieja vs mal de ojo sin la poder de sus calzoncillos, de esta forma, scienci Saru tiene la justificación para hacer la película de la arco de ombudsman en la pantalla grande

In my Kintaira analysis I briefly mentioned how Zuma and Vamola would be a pairing with stronger narrative implications then Kinta and Vamola and I would leave that discussion for another day.

I have decided today is 'another day'

Before I start, no, Im not saying this ship is the only objective ship that could and should happen. Everyone is free to ship away with whoever you want to ship. This is just my own take breaking down why I feel this ship in particular is very very strong.

Anyways, Zuma and Vamola have barely been around each other in the entirety of the manga, and yet, the short bit of interaction they have in both the few manga chaps and the omake already does sooo much justice for setting up the narrative implications and dynamics between the two romantically.

First, explaining some background context for both characters:

Starting with Zuma:

Zuma grew up in a childhood situation where he had no choice but to be the one who looked out for himself and his brother. His dad had died and his mother was so distraught, so he probably felt like he had a lot responsibility to be the man of the house even if he was so smoll.

Zuma therefore became so protective of his little brother Futa, who had this pure, innocent, "protect at all costs" nature to him. His little bro had such an infectious smile; a smile that Zuma would risk his life to protect... But he was too late. And that stuck with him hard.

Then he had the experience with his mom who tried to kill herself and bring him along with him. He ended up surviving but witnessing his own mother get decimated in front of him. The scene was so brutal, so much to the point that later when he encounters a headless dead frog that looks as if it's been brutally ran over, it reminds him of his mom. 🥺

He must have been feeling a lot various conflicting feelings the night she passed. And moving foward as well... The hatred towards his mom for attempting to kill him + abandoning him by himself; the sadness and shock towards losing his mother in such a brutal way; the survivor's guilt for being the only one who survived in his whole family; the solitude of being all alone in such a cruel world; the lack of social awareness because he just wasnt granted the proper time and space like other kids his age would normally get to develop...

From there he became extremely hardened and anarchist from the cruelness of society. He was angry and furious with the circumstances that had befallen him and society's indifference to it as a whole. He wanted to lash out as much as he could, wherever he could.

And yet you'd still catch him dreaming about his family and his lil bro. There was still this soft spot protective spot to him that he still possessed but had no direct outlet to give it towards. By living with Bega, he learned to look past his own perspective. And when he witnessed Bega sacrifice himself to save the kid who was about to drown just like his brother, Zuma stepped up himself.

We also learn later that he channeled his protective nature into the outcasts and rejects of society and the delinquents at his school. He goes out of his way to save and protect other people who need it the most, even willingly jumping into the cursed chest to swap after learning what happened with Daiki.

Later, we see at the climax of the Fairy Tale Card fight that Zuma comes to terms with his feelings about his mother.

He's more empathetic towards her irrational decisions by the end, he understands that everything she did was always based out of love. Even if it got distorted and irrational, she was always trying desperately to protect her family in her own way.

And now Vamola:

Vamola grew up in a childhood situation where she had immediately lost her mom and dad but did have a bond with people who served as maternal figures for her--but they were all forced to look out for themselves since they were actively losing a war against an alien species that was dominating their entire race and planet. Vamola was taught specifically from Banga that 'looking after her own damn self and not giving a shit about anyone else' is what it took to survive the dire mess they were all in.

Despite being in such a dire and depressing situation, Vamola still retained such a pure, innocent "protect at all costs" nature to her. She had an infectious smile; a smile that Banga and the others would risk their lives to protect.

Vamola constantly looked up to Banga as her mother, but Banga would attempt to keep reinforcing the idea of not being able to trust strangers, because trusting strangers is what got their planet into the situation it was currently in.

Banga initially wanted to just try to sneak off the planet asap, but it was Vamola who had this inner naive righteousness that demanded that they should try to save the men who were shackled up as fast as possible (it was Banga's idea, but Vamola rushed in).

The save attempt goes wrong, and it leads to everyone being more cornered than they were before. Banga ends up saving Vamola and giving a energizing speech about getting angry and furious because of the circumstances that have befallen them. To lash out as much as they can with whatever they can.

Later, when they finally make it to the warp area, Banga is the one who throws Vamola inside to go through herself. Vamola is initially shocked and confused about this. Banga was ready to make the ultimate sacrifice in order for Vamola to continue on. And so, Vamola ends up on earth.

Vamola must have been feeling various conflicting emotions that night and moving forward... The confusion of why Banga chose to sacrifice herself when Banga herself had said she wanted to live the situation and wasn't afraid of making sacrifices to do so; The confusion towards being abandoned so abruptly; the survivor's guilt of being the only one of her new-found family and entire race to make it out alive (to her knowledge); the solitude of being all alone in a brand new world; the lack of social awareness because she just wasnt granted the proper time and space like other kids his age would normally get to develop...

From there she tried desperately to fulfill the last words Banga had told her. Fortunately, she was able to find a new family but then the Kur attacks once again. She gathers up the last bit of her courage to face those scary monsters again and sacrifice herself so her new found-family can live even a little bit longer, just like Banga did for her. Fortunately, things play out better this time and everyone is able to live and move on together.

As you can see,

there's quite a bit of interesting parallels and similarities here and there with the way their narratives were handled:

Both lost their entire families.

Both moms were prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for their kid (though Banga's sacrifice was a lot more rational than Zuma's mom's obviously).

Both have a found-family figure that took them in that they could later consider a truly loved parent. Also Bega... Banga.... cmon now.

Both must have initially felt major conflicting emotions when they were abandoned by their moms, but both still came to understood that they were definitely loved by them at some point later.

Both were dropped off into a world of solitude and had to fend for themselves. Both weren't granted time to develop social awareness regularly as their peers did.

Both have the inner righteous nature to look out for others, but one is a bit more naive with it compared to the other.

They both have a more-than-meets-the-eye inversion: Zuma at first glance looks like a scary punk delinquent, but the truth is that he has a soft, kind-hearted side that wants to protect the ones who need it the most. Vamola at first glance looks like a cute innocent alien girl, but she can transform into a giant kick-ass Kaiju that can do some very destructive feats.

But, why would they make for a good pairing?

They just fit each other like puzzle pieces. They both have traces of the bond they treasured the most in the past but were forced to part with.

Zuma has an innate cynical, protective nature just like Banga had for Vamola. Vamola has an innate naive, innocent nature just like Futa had with Zuma.

Zuma wasn't able to protect his little brother's pure smile, but with Vamola, who has just as much as a pure smile and nature-- it'd be like his second chance to make sure that smile never fades away ever again.

Vamola wasn't strong enough to attempt her initial plan to save the men on her planet. To her, it could almost feel like she was the one caused things to go the way they did and therefore caused Banga to not be able to escape with her. But now she could have found someone who also puts up a gruff exterior but actually has a soft side to them that they don't normally show, just like Banga did for her, and this time she is strong and won't let that person go off and sacrifice himself for her or for anyone else.

Also, Vamola was told to find someone strong. Zuma has been both physically and mentally strong his whole life, because he had no other choice with the way he grew up. Even in this current amusement park arc, he's rushing into battle with ZERO powers. And when he gets his powers back, he'll be insanely strong once again.

And not just that, but Banga specifically said strong AND kind.

Zuma is one of the most kindest characters in this manga. His gang respects him so much because of how far he goes to save others.

Also, out of all the characters in the manga, Zuma was the ONLY character to have ever get a different emotion out of Vamola with her being angry at him, and Zuma was completely caught off guard by her actions.

Momo seemed like a pretty gnarly girl to him but he could still keep up with her. However, Vamola just keeps him on his toes lol. They also both share having a blunt straight forward nature. That could make for some interesting, fun, and cute dynamics with the way they are characterized.

And finally, they would be able to relate to each other's backstories and situation on a level no other character in the manga could do with each other.

They both know what losing their entire family and being abandoned to a world to fend for themselves felt like, they both know what it feels like to find a maternal or paternal comfort from someone who isn't blood related, they both would respect the type of people they held so close in the past because of how similar they are, they both have really big hearts despite the tragic, tragic scenarios they were forced to endure.

But Muh Nanozilla

Just as I said in my Kintaira post, Vamola and Kinta isn't a bad pairing, but narratively, it's the same sort of easy route as Aira getting with Okarun.

Kinta paired up with Vamola wouldn't challenge Kinta to grow past his current self. Vamola is straight forward, very impressionable and not fully understanding of Earthly teenage social cues quite yet. Vamola seems like she'd be down for the ride for pretty much anything out of pure curiosity. She mimics other people alot, namely Kinta and Jiji. This would be ideal for Kinta if he stayed a static character who refused to grow and change his ways (which I'll be honest is very likely fr).

But if Tatsu was to have Kinta experience a full character arc that had him actually grow, similar to how Aira actually grew in her full character arc, then Vamola wouldn't be the one to achieve that growth for him.

Moreover, Vamola would be the safe easy route normally but there's also the possibility that Vamola isnt written to be a static character in the future and that she matures more and more and has a better grasp of social cues and interactions then suddenly the easy lane Kinta had gotten so used to could crumble and he wouldn't even know why... (which admittedly could actually trigger the change for growth from Kinta too im ngl)

So when and why would this ship start sailing?

Im ngl to you, I have 0 clue lmao.

Unless Zuma has some sorta narrative reason to stick around further with the group, then he wouldn't really have much reason to stick around the main gang since he goes to a different school and has his own found-family that he has developed with the gang he runs... So therefore the moments necessary to interact to build the romance wouldnt be an easy thing to have happen very often since it's not like they would be in proximity of each other frequently. But then again, it really comes down to however it gets written.

I mean, just with the short interaction they've had already there's already enough to feed families with this ship. So yeah, anything is possible I suppose.

But my main point is that all the narrative implications are already there. If it ever is setup to start, then it already can just write itself tbh.

(＾Ｕ＾)ノ~ＹＯ　Hello hello~~

I would like to share 4 drawings I did with the theme of Aiaigasa.

(∗´ര ᎑ ര`∗) I wonder what we are talking about :P.

Anyways, hope everyone is doing amazingly!!

それじゃあ、またね！

(●'◡'●)🫶

Back at it again with some fanart. I like this updated design more and more now that I’ve drawn it. For colors, who knows? But I think he looks cool.

Also finally found a line-art brush I can use functionally. This is very much a growing process.

Does anybody feel lately that the story's main antagonist is weak? Don't get me wrong, Saint Germain is a mysterious character, and the fights are fine but I feel like at this point he hasn't acted enough to give enough tension for the main characters. Every week I read just feels like I'm passing by to see what other fight is being thrown our way. Also I feel like this current arc has been dragging out for a min especially with all these factions that we are suddenly introduced and this long amnesia plot. Idk if I'm the only one who feels this way but what do you guys think?

I read the last chapter of the manga recently, although okarun hasn’t appeared for a few chapters, I’m reviewing the first season of the anime and I can’t help but notice how weak and “cowardly” Okarun is

At first I even understand the situation, given the character he was created to be

But even after several situations beyond strange and with real danger of something, he does not evolve

Not even the smart nerd stereotype he fulfills, since momo usually assumes the most creative and brilliant ideas

Grandma turno keeps saying that her power is beyond strong and I only see okarun living on hyperbole and fallacies, only doing something when it’s a very key moment or to be “badass”

First of all, thank you to everyone who has translated parts of the Daizukan!

Was wondering if a complete translation of the Daizukan exists somewhere ? It seems unexistant !

I’m fine with fan translations, even AI-assisted ones!

I’ve found a few translated parts here and there, but I haven’t been able to find a complete version.

Does anyone know if one is available somewhere?

Thanks in advance!

Btw, I bought the original version when I was in Japan but without an e-version its impossible to ask an AI to translate it ^^

Gli ultimi capitoli del manga mi hanno fatto capire che nel momento in cui ho letto Dandadan mi sono subito sentito felice solo a vedere la prima pagina.

L'arc attuale è stato difficile per tutti, sono sempre stato tra le persone che dicono "lascia cucinare Tatsu" e sono orgoglioso della mia fedeltà a questo capolavoro perché sento che sta arrivando una parte di PEAK di questo arc. Il capitolo di oggi è stato perfetto per me, ho sentito che l'equipaggio si è riunito un po' e non vedo l'ora di vedere la trasformazione di okarun.

Tutte queste cose servivano a dire che Dandadan mi fa sentire felice solo perché è Dandadan e so che Tatsu non ci deluderà.

(So che potrei essere noioso ma oggi ero troppo emozionato per il nuovo capitolo)

(Scusate il cattivo inglese ma sono italiano e forse non capirete le cose che volevo dire nella mia testa🤌🤌)

Reading a Brett Whiteley (famous Australian artist) coffee table book and who's looking back but the mad shredder from Hayasii! Always thought he was the odd one out of the band design wise

A lot people here read dandadan mainly for the romance and hates amnesia because it stunted the progression of momokarun. Essentially, this caused a lot of fans wanting to see more of momokarun moments together and hope they get official before it ends. However, the romance of the main ship usually gets barely any focus and gets put into the background once the couple becomes official. To all those hoping for more momokarun moments after this due to amnesia, it might not happen.

This is what i think but what about you ? Do you think we will have more romance moments of them after they get together assuming it doesnt end when momokarun becomes official.

Does this mean that they, in a way, knowingly injected Zuma, Rin, and Kouki with yokai powers? I guess Kouki was shown, but for the other two, I just realized we never got an explanation, right? I guess Zuma got his after his brother passed, but there was no explanation for Rin. Please correct me if I'm wrong; it's been a while

For me, it's Sawaki easy no question

I really had no idea; my jaw dropped when I found out. That episode clearly showcases the artistic freedom that is the studio's trademark. It only deepened my fondness for the studio, since I love *Adventure Time*. Did you guys know about this?

I'm obsessed with momos white hair

And on a srs note, I love momos fashion sense and although I fcked up the jeans a Lil bit I think this is smth she'd wear

Now that we know Red has the Iron Bull power, making him a Red Bull, I think it's completely possible for those 2 to fight next arc. Not only did Germain steal his powers, he also insulted him. We alredy know Red is the type to hold a grudge. Even it it goes against Vlad's orders, I expect him to attack Germain, get injured and run away. Who knows, maybe he'll try more than once lol.

What about Gilles? We know Red Baron still sticks around Vlad, because of his daughter. Well, I actually think she would be ok with it. Tatsu made it pretty clear none of the Dragon Knights likes Germain, let alone someone who should be considered to be their elite. The recent Black Haircutter incident is most likely going to play a role here, since her powers, which were possibly given by Germain, caused quite a trouble as she lost control of herself.

Beating an alredy well established, dangerous character is a great way to showcase power. We have yet to see Germain actually fight against a proper opponent. (FTC was basically designed for a team battle). Besides, watching 2 villains fight each other is always cool.

Before you head into the comments, I know we didn't cover the Indigo light of compassion but this concept has been in my head too long to wait.

With what he has recently done Hase made himself irredeemable. Fair enough. But I'm a sucker for the bully redemption so I thought "What if Hase gets an Indigo Lantern Ring and forces him to become better?" He would certainly get what he deserves. Would you guys find that interesting or cool?

Answer: From Momo

Watching wrestling is one of the things that Momo enjoys. Apperantly Vamola got influenced too.

Hello everyone!

Hope you're all doing great today!

New week, new chapter, so I want to make yet another post summarizing it and sharing some thoughts. Hopefully the discussion in the comments can entertain you all too.

• The chapter starts right as we left off, with Vamola running towards William with Aira by her side to defend her.
• William tries to go for a stab, but Aira deflects the attack, giving Vamola an opening for a kick to the knee.
• The attack lands, but doesn't do much damage, so William tries to counterattack, only to have Aira deflect the attack again. Vamola tries to hit the knee again to no avail.
• William grabs Vamola's leg and flips her to make her fall. He then grabs her by the arms and stands her up to grip her arms tighter and bite her shoulder.
• Aira lifts Evil Eye into the air and asks him to switch with Jiji, allowing the latter to help Aira attack William with both a Noble Drill and an Evil Gun.
• Since Aira and Jiji's attacks are not making a difference, Vamola starts to kick William's knee with her heel. Suddenly, after many attempts, one of the kicks makes William's knee buckle, causing him to release Vamola and tumble down.
• Jiji calls out to Vamola and tells her to keep attacking William like that. He also explains that he projected his spiral impact onto Vamola to make her attack become a spiral attack. Because of the size difference, only Vamola can attack him and deal damage, with the attack being powered up by Jiji.
• Now with both Jiji and Aira helping Vamola, Jiji transforms into his hybrid form with Evil Eye, and Vamola prepares to go for one more attack.
• Vamola runs towards William, having Aira deflect another attack from William's tail. She stops in front of him and lands a punch powered up by Jiji's Evil Gun, damaging William's torso and back.
• William tries to hit back, only to have his claw deflected by Aira. Vamola jumps over William, lands behind him, and wraps her arms around him to start lifting him.
• With the help of Aira and Jiji, Vamola lifts William and hits him with a suplex to end the chapter.

And that's the chapter.

Pretty sweet chapter for those of us who enjoy the fights and crazy spectacles that Tatsu-sensei and his team draw.

Now, not much I can talk about here besides the possible scenarios for the future.

This fight seems pretty much over, so I assume Clown-Face and Cagliostro will try to run for it, but someone must stop them.

There are many who can stop them in their tracks. Option 1 is Rokuro and Chiquitita, mostly to give them a bit of use besides driving Vamola to help Aira and Jiji. Option 2 is Kurdere, considering that Momo blew the whistle in the dinosaur exhibition and she'll most likely teleport there. Option 3 is Aira, Jiji, and Vamola, just because they're the strongest option to subdue those paladins.

There's also the option of both of them managing to run away, but I think Clown-Face will still want to take revenge on Aira specifically, and now add Vamola to his revenge list, so it's better for them to take those guys down for the rest of the amusement park disaster.

I do wonder if Aira, Jiji, and Vamola will try to go back to the main fight where Okarun will turn into an Oni. I think they will, but not as soon as it starts, maybe to help subdue him into turning back to normal. Aira's hair can help bind him, or he can pull her close for an attack.

If I'm honest, I think we'll first see some of the other fights before seeing Onikarun. Or some of it before it's interrupted by Momo calling after Okarun as he gets up.

I don't know why I think we'll see Okarun turning into an Oni and instinctively taking Momo to the Ferris Wheel, scaling it like King Kong to keep her safe at a high altitude, leading to a fight there because the leader of this team of Paladins is nowhere to be found in this last fight, and he could follow them there.

And that's it for me. I hope you guys liked the post. I'll be honest and say that I've considered not making these posts anymore, but I'm convinced by some friends in here to keep at it.

So, I'll keep making them while I can, enjoying some civilized discussion with you all, which has become a highlight of my weeks for the last year and some months that I've been doing this.

See you guys around!

she got powerbombed and suplexed back to back, ol girl been fiending for the getback ever since lol
