My husband is a huge anime fan, while I’ve never been as enthusiastic about it. I do have fond memories of watching classics like “Candy Candy” and “Dragonball” when I was little, but I wouldn’t say anime is something I actively seek out. Of course, Studio Ghibli is a different story; their films create a magical world all on their own!

So, I was genuinely surprised when I found myself hooked on "Dandadan." This series has not only captivated my attention but also serves as a fantastic resource for learning contemporary Japanese. I wanted to share my experience with you, as it’s a great way to engage with the language while enjoying an entertaining story.
