Synopsis
Dandadan, Vol. 9 is the Italian-language edition (Planet Manga) of Yukinobu Tatsu's genre-blending supernatural action-comedy, first published in Japan in March 2023. Momo Ayase and Ken 'Okarun' Takakura face a seemingly invincible kaiju, forcing them to improvise a new use for the reality-bending nanoskin while the eccentric Kinta Sakata steps up to help.
Mixing yokai and alien lore with breakneck fights, crude humor, and a tender central romance, the volume continues one of the most acclaimed manga of the decade. The Planet Manga release localizes Shueisha's original tankobon for Italian readers.
