Synopsis
Volume 1 of Yukinobu Tatsu's smash-hit Shonen Jump+ series launches the ghosts-versus-aliens premise that defines Dandadan. When cheerful Momo Ayase and timid occult nerd Okarun bet over whether the supernatural or extraterrestrials are real, both are proven right in the worst way, she gains psychic powers after an alien abduction, and he is cursed by the fearsome Turbo Granny.
The opening volume pairs breakneck supernatural action with irreverent humor and the first sparks of a slow-burn romance, introducing Turbo Granny, the Serpo aliens, and Momo's medium grandmother.
