Japanese Demons and Aliens. Weirdness and Grandness. It's give the vibe of TG:re when certain character turned into "dragon". But here, it goes early very on. Simply put, Dandadan is mixing everything you can expect from a mystic themed story with quirk aliens theme. I am said that this comics depic great size landscape wonderfully it almost feels very real. And it adds to the mystic feels of it.

Well in anyway, I agree that some theme in it can not be unsuitable for some people, but if you can get over it, this actually can be fun to read.

I came a across this a year or less ago when looking up Spanish manga. Chapters weren't out at the time. But now having the opportunity to read it today. I didn't expect it to be out right vulgar and fan service in the literal first chapter because it's a shounen not Seinen.
I thought I would enjoy it but this isn't what I look for in a shounen manga, I was in the mood for something more wholesome then what I got.

What stop me from reading was a pedophile ghost grandma pretty much verbally sexually harassed (asking for "favors") the Male lead (a minor) and he makes a run for it. I couldn't believe my eyes until an army of aliens literally stripped the female lead (also a minor) not even 5 second s after the ghost scene and try to have their way with her explaining what they'll do before hand. The pedo grandma bites the aliens no zone and that's when I decided right then and there I had seen enough.

Weirdest, most random hilarious mangas I've dug up in 2022

This manga has everything: school life, horror, weird alien shits, but you can't be scared for 2 seconds because the very next one you'll be laughing your ass off. There's some tiny bit of romance too which is cute in its own way. Loads of pop cultural references. The comment section on Jump website will have you rolled as well. The action and drawing are off the chart! How experienced is the mangaka? (Proceed to check out.)

And this is the first manga I've read that sympathises and empathises with the "bad guys" who are youkais, demons and aliens. Every single of their story are made of heart, feelings and emotions that will (very likely) leave you in tears (like I did).

Awesome translation from Kumar Sivasubramanian and lettering from Sara Linsley. And all chapters are available to read online.

I've just binge-read all 52 chapters and none of the arcs felt a bore. I really, really like this series and am eagerly waiting for what to come! (And another I'd like to mention although they are different is Heavenly Delusion).

All in all: It's good! Really really good. And it feels fresh, new, exciting and empowering (especially with such good female leads and characters). Banzai!

-Update 8 May 2023: I'm at the latest chapter "Banga". Just read it. It's a WORK OF ART TT___TT
-Update 7 August 2023: I'm at chapter 117 and this manga never tires its reader. It's now in epic sci-fi war zone. It's absolutely bonker how Yukinobu-sensei does it all every-single-week. Banzai, sensei, banzai!

This manga is a ride. The plot is unusual, the characters are great, the pacing is great, and the humor is hilarious. If you can get over the weirdness, it's a gem.

Lovely! but mis-tagged

I am gonna subtract one point for the occasional needless over-sexualization of underaged characters (does the MCs clothes really have to conveniently burn/fly/rip off all the time?) - but as a whole, the story is too much of a masterpiece to rate it any lower.
A lovable, fluffy coming of age story, mixed with gruesome tales of lost lives, amazing humour, GORGEOUS ART! (so many new wallpapers hehe) and I adore the two protagonists who equally lead us through this story (was expecting the ML to be the carrying protagonist due to this being Shounen).

Now, as the other comments have already mentioned, there is A LOT of mention of sexual topics and they're shown pretty graphically. I mean it's not Smut but it is Ecchi and I have not seen any site tag it correctly which is a bit worrying. If I had read that in public I would have died of shame!

Weird as hell

j4mag’s comment describes it neatly imo.
weird comedy, sometimes kinda out of place but besides that the comic is written/drawn really skillfully.
Don’t pick it up if you dislike sexual humor

Right so the premise of the story is about a gyaru and nerd duo who go around exploring occult stuff, right? Well, kinda. It's also about how the ghosts keep stealing the protagonist's johnson. Never have I seen a series where complaints about how the protagonist has no balls would be so literally true.

The punchlines all lean on the absurd, from absurd monsters, absurd personalities, and absurd situations. Suspension of disbelief is so shattered by halfway through chapter 1 that it's clear the series is much more a parody of battle shounen than a battle shounen in and of itself.

From that lens, the constant cliffhangers and dearth of developed characters is fine. That said, the series' constant flitting between one-note comedy and melodrama robs both of their impacts. When none of the punchlines land, and when the drama feels superficial due to a lack of immersion, a lulsorandum premise can only take the series so far. 7/10. It's not garbage, I guess. At least it's not another generic isekai.

PS: a bug on the Pair of 2+ website replaced half of chapter 5 with an unrelated soccer manga, and I finished the chapter half-convinced it was making fun of the nonsensical extended metaphors prevalent in so many shounen. It wasn't, but it would be on-brand.
