Once more unto the breach of brain-boggling brilliance! The anime anomaly, Dan Da Dan, has returned with its vivacious vortex of visual vivacity and a title that sounds like a catchy jazz riff. Imagine two teens, one pro-apparition and the other all in on aliens, battling cosmic chaos with the fervor of hamsters in a mini-thunderdome.
The Madness Unfolds
Netflix and Crunchyroll are rolling out this strange, splendid concoction come July 3. If the notion of diving headfirst into a swirling whirlpool of ghosts, aliens, and animated lunacy makes you feel alive, well, huzzah! Prepare for a genre-bending kaleidoscope that’s more colorful than a chameleon on a rainbow diet.
