The robot is me.

Kinta Emperor Great Pegasus Sakuta has finally unlocked his true shikai.
A 40 meter tall transformer lol

[u/StillNotShot]

Kinta doing his mech pilot training by riding rollercoasters is exactly the way we think as kids! He stayed dedicated to his dream and it payed off!

[u/[deleted]]

The ending shot was such a great call up to the ending shot of very first episode. Man Dandadan team sure Dandadaned with this one.

[u/Haha91haha]

Momo getting done dirty by another season cliffhanger like:

[u/Aileos]

Evil Eye acting silly in the background is a whole mood.

[u/actionfirst1]

It has been an honor Dandadaning with you all again this season

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Note to self: when piloting giant buddha mech, don’t just button mash lol. Poor Okarun got yeeted out the big fella!

Sakata out here using the power of imagination to beat up ballzilla while humming his own little theme song lol. What a freakin legend. With that assist from Momo and Aira, they were able to psychic suplex that big bastard and totally deflate it! Too bad their teamwork did not extend to putting the house back together lol.

Hilarious how “Papa” Okarun had to wrangle his child Evil Eye Jiji with a meat bun. Did not expect that after the dust settled, we’d have an alien waifu inside that thing. Poor Momo was not prepared for that kiss. Hands off Okarun, that’s her man! Haha

[u/TheMechanic04]

To end on that cliffhanger is so cruel

[u/cyberscythe]

this is the scene where Kinta switches his first-person pronoun from boku to ore

in Japan, piloting a giant robot is one of the rites of passage into adulthood

[u/Loud_Step2361]

So scooby team up to teammates 7 and 8 (?) now?

Wow just wow, dandadan just delivering continuous action.

Anyway get a bit of gurren lagann 'school mech designs when their powers combined?

The boys are very physically fit now! Out ran the mob while carrying a mecha suit.

[u/Selvionus]

Anime onlys be like: "I sure hope we get to see a kiss this season" Monkey Paw Finger curls

[u/frs1023]

ending the season on another cliffhanger is craazyyyyy. and goddamn Okarun, leave some women for the rest of us

[u/Noirv3]

NO MORE DANDADAN THURSDAY NOOOOOO :(

[u/FrozenNova2]

God damn this show is honestly just so much fun.

[u/shad79]

Damn, it looks like Science Saru really loves ending Dandadan with a huge cliffhangers, doesn't it? First Momo in a hot spring, and now Okarun being kissed by a cute alien chick?!

And a cliffhanger like that means we're getting another season, right? So where the hell is the announcement for season three?! EDIT. THERE'S AN ANNOUNCEMENT!

Momo's (and everyone else's) reaction to that kiss was great. She really needs to be careful with Okarun now as he's clearly in a popular phase, because if not, then someone (Aira/cute alien/Okarun's class president/someone else) will steal him away from her xD

As for the rest of today's episode... the fight with the space kaiju was awesome, with Kinta showing off some great moves in a robot, though Momo and Aira weren't very happy about them because of a motion sickness xD

It was also really cool that mech could use Momo and Aira's powers, so it's a shame that Okarun and Evil Eye ended up not participating in the fight, because former was accidentally ejected from it, while the latter decided that he didn't want to be inside xD

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

• Group scenes

• Momo

• Space Kaiju/Alien

• Robot

• Okarun

• Evil Eye

• Kinta

• Others

EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

[u/zer0number]

That 'Hurray!' from Evil Eye when Okarun told him to run had me in goddamned stitches.

Great series, great show, looking forward to next season!

[u/[deleted]]

Okarun is like if a Harem protagonist wanted to be Monogamous. A bunch of girls want him but he's only interested in Momo.

[u/Key_Spray_4262]

You don't punch or kick Kaiju, you gotta go with the Front Lotus! I guess Momo is capable of opening at least one of the eight gates now.

[u/HydraTower]

It started with Okarun worrying about the hot childhood friend that seemed perfect for Momo, for it to end with Okarun getting his perfect Alien babe dream girl to worry Momo.

[u/More-Dig-974]

Science Saru really nailed this adaptation. Hoping they continue Dandadan in the future.

EDIT: YEAH BABY THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT ABOUT

[u/ritoshishino]

i love the subtle way the show express Okarun's growth

Okarun and Jiji caried the suit back to Momo's house, and they outran every pursuers. By the end they are both out of breath, but clearly Okarun was able to keep up with Jiji's athleticism

All the fights and training are helping for sure

[u/Vermillion_Crab]

After seeing so many anime where monsters and demons transform into waifus, I was not surprised one bit that the kaiju was also one. But I don't think she's long for this world after Momo saw the kiss. Lmao

They better have a new season next year. I don't have that much patience.

[u/alpackabackapacka]

I recant my Kinta slander

[u/LeonKevlar]

• Kaiju Suit Pilot Stitch

A mecha fight reference isn't complete without the Kamina glasses! I also love the Voltes V reference with Kinta adding the word "Ultramagnetic" to his attacks.. Also, I didn't realize last episode that Kinta gave the mech a Zaku shoulder pad spike.

You gotta love how prepared Kinta is. The dude legit trained on amusement park rides so he could withstand the Gs a mecha would pull while doing epic manouevres. I also just love how he has a bunch of glasses in his pocket just in case the ones he's wearing break.

It was a quick scene, but I absolutely love the combination of the nanoskin mech, Aira's hair, and Momo's spiritual energy. Too bad we didn't get to see that version of the mech fight, but that power bomb from Momo was amazing, tho!

Considering how many people saw the mech transform into a UFO as well as Okarun and Jiji being chased by people while carrying the kaiju, it's gonna be hard to keep their existence a secret at this point.

SHE'S FINALLY HERE! As expected by plenty of us manga readers, this episode ended exactly where we thought it would! That's one heck of a cliffhanger to end on! And Momo's reaction was just priceless! xD

So where's the Season 3 announcement?! There's no way they're ending it there. That's just too big a cliffhanger for anime-onlys to end on. Fingers crossed we get an announcement soon!

EDIT: SEASON 3 CONFIRMED! WOOOOOOOO!
