Recent Controversy Surrounds Episode 18
Season 2 has not been without its talking points, as a recent controversy emerged concerning Episode 18. The episode featured a fictional band named “HAYASii” whose performance bore a striking resemblance to the real-life Japanese rock band X Japan. This led to concerns from X Japan member Yoshiki, prompting the DAN DA DAN anime production committee to issue an official apology. The committee stated that the song “Hunting Soul” was created out of respect and a desire to express a similar passion to X Japan but acknowledged their failure to communicate with Yoshiki and the band beforehand. Despite this hiccup, the season has maintained strong critical reception, holding a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Expected Episode Count for DAN DA DAN Season 2
DAN DA DAN Season 2 is projected to consist of 12 episodes, which, when combined with the first season, would bring the total episode count for the anime adaptation to 24. This structure suggests the series will conclude its current run around mid-September, barring any unforeseen changes to the schedule. The ongoing release ensures fans have a steady stream of supernatural escapades to look forward to throughout the summer anime season.
