After yesterday’s season finale, it can be confirmed that this year’s critically acclaimed, genre-defying anime series DAN DA DAN will return for Season 2 on Crunchyroll this July 2025 for the summer anime season. Season 2 of DAN DA DAN is set to launch into a new chapter following the shocking cliffhanger that capped off the first season.

The newly unveiled Season 2 announcement visual captures a sense of tension and unease, while the ominous presence of Evil Eye, fixated on Jiji standing at the center, commands attention with its unsettling gaze. The deep purple hues that fill the background heighten the anticipation of the intense and merciless battles that await Momo, Okarun, Jiji, and Turbo Granny. Adding to the intrigue, the artwork features portraits of renowned classical composers and a small kaiju, hinting at the bizarre and unpredictable adventures still to come in DAN DA DAN.
