Dandadan manga announced a sudden hiatus after the release of chapter 182. Yukinobu Tatsu's work, a Shonen Jump , gained its anime adaptation in the fall 2024 season and quickly gained fans, becoming a public favorite.
With its popularity soaring, the series has received praise from critics and readers alike. The second season is scheduled to premiere in summer 2025 and will continue the Cursed House . The first season ended midway through this intense arc, leaving several questions unanswered.
Momo and Okarun face their greatest threat yet. However, the manga is already far ahead of the anime's story, currently in its tenth narrative arc. Despite this, the manga went on hiatus after the chapter released on January 20, 2025. This is Tatsu's first hiatus of the year, and it promises to be a long one. The reason has not yet been revealed, but it is speculated that the author needs time to rest or hone his skills. Dandadan will return on February 24, 2025, for North American readers.
What's happening in the Dandadan manga?
In the current arc, Momo faces difficulties after being unable to return to normal size after escaping Danmanra. Her friends do everything they can to protect her. However, in the meantime, Kouki Yukishiro, a student, attacks Momo with a knife to steal her powers, being blackmailed by Count Saint-Germain, the series' main villain. After dealing with Kouki and bringing her to their side, Grandmother Seiko continues searching for a solution to help her granddaughter.
In Chapter 182, Seiko returns home and prepares to leave with Momo and Vamola. While other friends ask to accompany them, Zuma rescues an elderly man who has been trapped in Danmanra since seventh grade and is now aging rapidly. Meanwhile, Kinta reveals that he has found Professor Kouki, and Aira and Okarun set out to capture her. The chapter ends with another tense moment: Kouki finds himself in danger again.
Dandadan chapters are available on the official MangaPlus , as well as digital and physical editions on Viz's official website.
