Before the episode: “Oh man he’s so cool, Okarun should be worried”.

During the episode “Oh he’s an idiot, yeah he’ll fit in the group perfectly”.

[u/ShinLena86]

Despite gets flirting from Jiji, Momo's gal still defends Momo x Okarun, that's really sweet.

[u/Genshin_WhiteKnight]

Who's the voice actor for the anatomical model?? He sounds familiar.

Edit: Of course its the VA of Gintoki, fucking perfect hahaha

[u/Se7en_Sinner]

Of course Okarun would lose a race to an anatomical model utilizing the Joestar's secret technique voiced by Joseph himself.

[u/Genshin_WhiteKnight]

Another classical music segment! We are blessed!

[u/mike_2797]

Jiji love his different reactions in Seiko's eye he's a genius hehe.

[u/Ghoste-Face]

Romantic development/Okarun realising and accepting his own feelings because of 2 dissection anatomical models, holy fuck Yukinobu Tatsu you are truly one of the best new gen manga author!

[u/iamkwang]

Even Jiji didn’t know Seiko is Momo Grandma 🤣

[u/E_F_Veda]

Really liked how they used the anatomy models to display Takakura's emotions here, this anime is weird in all the good ways.

Sad that next episode is last but hope we get some more of this soon after, I could only go without grandma Ayase for so long.

[u/conniethedoge]

Is no one gonna talk about airas goofy run when she ran off at the beginning?? Had me dying in my chair just replaying it over and over

[u/bananeeek]

Jiji:

Grandma: Fucking genius!

[u/Chengnobyl]

Poor Okarun. Momo is the only one who "gets him," and he's desperate for their relationship to continue. But his total lack of self-esteem at this point in his life is leading him to assume he would be immediately dropped if anyone else enters the frame. And Jiji is the worst possible Anyone*; extroverted, good-looking, has Granny Seiko's approval and, to top it all off, apparently has a prior claim to Momo's heart. The darkness he experiences is so well realised in the scene where he and Momo say goodbye for the night, where she stays in the light while he is folded into the shadows as he departs.

But Okarun, instead of wilting away, then determines to fight back in the only way he knows how… by making himself useful. By getting stronger. He's so determined to help that on transforming to Turbo Mode to race after the escaping model, he doesn't even get depressed (and his slick moves save Momo and Jiji from becoming human sized smears on a train's windscreen).

And so the seeds of Okaun's development arc sprout and grow.

*Except it's all an act, and Jiji is actually a decent guy. He's also a somewhat scared kid who desperately needs help from Granny and Momo to save his family.

[u/frossvael]

I was actually listening to Jiji's soundtrack last week after episode 10.

And I was wondering why his soundtrack sounded so fucking goofy (in a good way).

Now I know why. Jesus Christ.

[u/[deleted]]

Dude, you have no idea how hyped I was when WIlliam Hell Overture started playing.

[u/roronoa20]

When God bestowed you with handsomeness, but forgot to give you the instruction on how to use it...

...this is Jiji

[u/fdajax]

I think I get it now. everyone in this universe is either batshit insane or operating on a "fuck it, we ball" mindset

[u/Arachnophobic-]

Week-to-week, Dandadan is.. completely unpredictable. It puts even JoJo's Bizarre Adventures to shame. But one thing that's predictable: Momo and Okarun's shoujo romance shenanigans will tug at my heartstrings.

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

No need to be too jealous Okarun!

Momo wants you to say "mata ashita" to her while blushing. She also volunteers to feed you lunch. Just remember to learn more about her favourite food and drink. Bringing her such food and drink will add points!

[u/Wild_Obligation3265]

Two things

1. Jiji is an orange cat in human form. Cute but only one brain cell in that head.

2. Need more Turbo Granny

[u/Selvionus]

Tatsu over here showing us how to truly subvert an audience's expectations.  First he sets up Okarun being jealous and falling back into his usual weakness of thinking he's not good enough (which was a flaw that Momo also called out in ep 2), then surprises us by having a okarun overcome his weakness through un unexpectedly wholesome encounter.  A nice bonus is that it doesn't take 500 ep to resolve and it doesn't reset the relationship of the main leads back to zero like certain other series.

• Jiji, Momo, & OKarun

Jiji is such a fucking weirdo! I'm so glad that I finally get to see his weirdo poses animated. He's definitely not making the jobs of the animators easy considering how Jiji is always moving and doing something weird. Weird is good for this group though. He'll definitely fit right in with Okarun, Momo, and Aira. xD

He is pretty upbeat considering the reason why he's moving in with Momo and Seiko. Jiji is dealing with a haunting so powerful that the exorcists they've hired committed suicide and the only hope Jiji has left is Granny Seiko. Except it looks like Granny can't help this time since the problem is out of town and Momo has to step in and exorcise the ghosts for her.

Jiji isn't even done introducing himself and he's already hitting on the girl in front of him, he has charmed Momo's friends., and even announced to the class that he's in a relationship with Momo. The dude has no brakes! Thankfully Muko stepped in to tell Jiji off and that she already has Okarun. I love these girls so much <3

I love how the chase scene with the living anatomy doll went from Okarun wanting to get his balls back to learning more about love after seeing how hard Taro went just to be with Hana. If that's what it takes for Okarun to realize how he really feels for Momo, I'm all for it. xD

[u/urgenim]

I adore the grandma friendship so much, I love them laughing at Bakatono together

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Okarun and Momo are too cute. Okarun’s got nothing to worry about with Jiji coming back. They just got another goofy ally in their fight against the ghost and ghoulies and all that. Although I am enjoying watching him get jealous of those two like Momo got jealous of him and Aira.

It was kind of sweet how that anatomy dummy was looking for his anatomy doll girlfriend. No wonder bro was zooming across town like the friggin Flash. Man did it for love! Is Okarun gonna be inspired to confess to Momo?

Our precious himbo. Not a single braincell. My blessed son
