00:00Danda Dan Season 2, Episode 2, Evil Eye, plunges deeper into the cursed house arc where Momo, O'Karen, and Gigi confront the sinister forces haunting Gigi's ancestral home, revealed to be built atop a sacred altar dedicated to the Mongolian.
00:15Death Worm, a mythical great snake revered by the Kito family for over two centuries through ritual offerings, the episode unveils the evil Ayokai's heartbreaking origin as a child sacrificed in the Tsuchinoko ritual its centuries long, resentment now possessing Gigi, warping his personality into a volatile mix of defiance and despair.
00:38Psychic waves from the altar manipulate Momo and O'Karen, driving them toward self-destructive impulses in a harrowing sequence of psychological horror.
00:48Gigi, desperate to protect his friends, attempts to flee but the Mongolian Death Worms.
00:54Grotesque, serpentine form emerges, its spectral presence intensifying the chaos.
01:00The atmosphere is drenched in oppressive purples, sickly yellows, and flickering shadows, with Science Saru's signature surreal visuals amplifying the blend of supernatural action, horror, and emotional weight.
01:14The episode ends on a gripping cliffhanger as the evil eye fully manifests, threatening to consume Gigi and the town's dark legacy.
01:23Science Saru's animation is a visual triumph with fluid character designs, dynamic fight choreography, and vibrant color palettes that make the Mongolian Death Worms' writhing mass and the evil eye's spectral form unforgettable.
01:37The 2D action sequences, particularly Momo's psychic blasts and O'Karen's turbo-granny-fueled agility, are exhilarating, though occasional 3D creature renders feel clunky, disrupting the otherwise seamless aesthetic voice acting elevates.
01:53The tension with Alexla's English dub of Gigi masterfully balancing vulnerability and menace, capturing his possession's toll, Momo's quips voice by Abby Trot inject levity but sometimes clash with the episode's grim tone, while O'Karen's earnest delivery Max Mittelman grounds the chaos.
02:13The pacing is relentless, packing action, lore, and psychological horror into 24 minutes, but the dense Kito family backstory, delivered via expository flashbacks, briefly stalls momentum, echoing Mob Psycho 100E's lore-heavy arcs, compared to Jujutsu Kaisen, the supernatural battles dazzle with inventive Yoke designs, yet the episode leans heavily into horror, sidelining Season 1E's comedic charm.
02:42Strengths include the atmospheric dread and layered character motivations, though the lack of quieter moments risks emotional overload.
02:50The ritualistic history adds depth, but its integration could be smoother to maintain narrative flow, evil.
02:57I showcases Dandadon's bold evolution, embracing darker, more mature themes of sacrifice, possession, and inherited trauma while retaining its kinetic energy.
03:08The visual spectacle, haunting atmosphere, and Gigi's compelling arc make it a standout, though the shift toward horror over humor and occasional pacing hiccups slightly unbalance the series' signature charm.
03:21Looking ahead, I expect Gigi's possession to drive richer character development, with Momo and O'Karen's bond tested further.
03:29A return to Season 1E's comedic balance would enhance the escalating stakes.
03:35This episode cements Season 2E's ambition, delivering a thrilling, if imperfect, chapter that solidifies Dandadon as a must-watch for fans of supernatural anime craving psychological depth and visceral action.
