Dandadan continues to be a fun and engaging manga. In this volume, we finish off the fight that left off at the end of volume 3 and then Momo's friend Jiji appears to present a new problem. Jiji's arrival also throws a wrench in how Okarun feels and he starts to think more about how he really feels about Momo. This prompts some interesting character work. The art continues to be fun and over the top in the best ways. I'm excited to see where the story goes in volume 4 as our main characters venture to Jiji's supposedly cursed house.

hadde vært bedre hvis jentene hadde forelsket seg i hverandre i stedet
Summary:
It all started as a little bet. Each wanted to prove the existence of the supernatural to their new friend, and neither was willing to listen. This quickly turns to chaos as a haunted tunnel and horny aliens get thrown into the mix.
Okarun may not be cursed anymore (technically?), but he does still have a specific problem. Mainly because a certain part of his anatomy is still missing, and he will need Momo's help to get them back. Awkward.
Review:
And so the chaos (and drama) continues in Dandadan Vol. 4. This serious is absolutely hilarious. Every time I think it's reached its peak, something else makes me double over laughing. I can't wait until the anime drops.
The last volume introduced a new character, and with her came a lot of drama. I think it'll be at least another volume or two before that all settles down – assuming it ever does. It is helping to push the romantic plot forward, though, so no complaints. Ironically, this volume upped the ante by introducing yet another new character. However, I wouldn't be surprised if he disappears once he's served his purpose.
Dandadan Vol. 4 starts with a bang. By that I mean a battle. It's a long, intense battle with many fan service and comical elements. It takes things to absurd levels in a way that only this series could manage.
I like the new characters and the changes they bring to the dynamics. I'm looking forward to seeing how the current/next plot goes, as it's pretty compelling. You know I love a good haunted house story. But mixing in humor will make it something wholly unique; I know it.
Highlights:
Horror/Science Fiction Manga
Comedy
Supernatural
Sci-fi versus Fantasy

This is one of my favourite volumes of this crazy series as the Serpo arc comes to a close, the truth about the world is revealed and a new cast member joins. It still has the same wacky sense of humour and there's a big focus on the adorably endearing reactions and relationships of the characters. Jiji is a brilliant edition. I wanted to hate him but he's just so goofy you have to like him. It's a lot of fun, with some fantastic art as well (as usual). If you are this far in the series then you probably don't need me to tell you how good it is, and if you haven't started it yet why are you looking at volume 4 first??
Content Warnings
Minor: Sexual content
This volume continues the Serpo arc underwater where they all took their clothes off, and are fighting in their underwear. There's one panel in particular that could be called suggestive, but in context the whole thing is played for laughs and is actually very sweet.
