Manga Dandadan continues to win fans around the world, and with the success of the anime (with its second season confirmed for the summer of 2025), its creator, Yukinobu Tatsu , shared curiosities about his creative process and his connection to the work. In a recent interview, he talked about striking scenes, his work routine and, of course, his favorite character .
When asked about an unforgettable scene by Dandadan, Tatsu highlighted the iconic abduction of a UFO cow. For the author, this moment is special because everything fit perfectly into the narrative. In the anime, the combination of absurdity with the epic made the scene even more memorable, showing how the manga can turn unusual situations into key pieces of history.
About his routine, Tatsu revealed that he works alone, with his assistants acting remotely since the pandemic. Unlike many mangaka using advanced tablets and software, it prefers the classic: paper and pen. This simplicity reflects your style and the authentic way to connect with your creation.
But the highlight was Momo Ayase, his favorite character. Tatsu confessed that if he does not draw her the way he considers ideal, erases and remains until he is satisfied. For him, Momo is like Superman, not for the powers, but for the ability to inspire. What makes Superman a hero is his positive influence, the same impact as Momo in Dandadan .
The author also explained that he seeks inspiration for paranormal creatures in Japanese myths and legends, always discovering new cultural elements. In addition, he prefers that history flows naturally, without rigid division of arcs, reflecting the growth of the protagonists.
