I’ve been following Dandadan since its early days, and let me tell you, this current arc has got me on the edge of my seat like never before! As someone who’s been obsessed with Momo and Okarun’s relationship from the very beginning, seeing Momo lose her memory has been absolutely heartbreaking. But that’s what makes Yukinobu Tatsu such a genius storyteller – he knows exactly how to keep us coming back for more!

Where to Read Dandadan Chapter 215 Officially?
I know some of you might be tempted to look for unofficial sites, but I strongly recommend supporting the official releases. Not only do you get the best quality, but you’re also supporting Yukinobu Tatsu and the amazing team behind Dandadan.
You can read Chapter 215 on:

- Viz Media (Also free with the latest three chapters)
I’ve been using both platforms for years, and they’re super reliable. Plus, you get to read the chapter the same day it releases in Japan!
What Happened in Chapter 214? (Spoiler Alert!)
If you haven’t caught up yet, Chapter 214 was an emotional gut-punch that left me staring at my screen in disbelief. Here’s the recap of what went down:
Momo and Okarun were having this incredibly tense conversation where she kept pushing him to tell her his real name. Okarun, being the sweetheart he is, was hesitant because he knows how Momo used to react negatively to his real name (Ken Takakura). The irony here is just painful – she used to love that name because it’s the same as her favorite actor, but now she doesn’t even remember that!
The chapter ended with Momo starting to think that Okarun might be taking advantage of her amnesia, which hurt him deeply. I literally wanted to reach through the screen and give him a hug! And just when things couldn’t get more complicated, that creepy teacher Sanjome shows up, trying to get close to Momo when she’s at her most vulnerable.
What to Expect in Chapter 215?
Based on how things left off in Chapter 214 and the patterns I’ve noticed in Tatsu-sensei’s storytelling, here’s what I’m predicting for Chapter 215:
The Sanjome Threat
I’ve got a bad feeling about Sanjome. This guy’s been posing as a teacher, but I’m convinced he’s connected to Count Saint-Germain somehow. With Momo being so vulnerable and confused right now, she’s the perfect target for manipulation. I wouldn’t be surprised if Sanjome tries to exploit her memory loss to turn her against Okarun and the others.
Okarun’s Breaking Point
Poor Okarun has been holding so much back since Momo lost her memory. In Chapter 214, we saw him finally break down when she accused him of taking advantage of her. I think Chapter 215 might be the moment he finally opens up to his friends about his feelings and asks for help. He’s been trying to handle everything alone, but even the strongest characters need support sometimes!
Momo’s Instincts vs. Her Memory
One thing that’s really interesting about this arc is how Momo’s instincts are still there even though her memories are gone. She felt relieved when she sensed Okarun’s presence, and she knows something’s not right even if she can’t put her finger on it. I’m hoping Chapter 215 explores this more – maybe we’ll see her supernatural abilities start to return?
The Current Situation: A Quick Catch-Up
For those who might be a bit behind (no judgment here!), let me quickly break down what’s been happening in Dandadan lately:
Momo’s Memory Loss
After being freed from her curse, Momo lost all her memories from the time she started hanging out with Okarun and the others. That means she doesn’t remember:
- Her friendship with Okarun
- Aira and their battles together
- All the supernatural stuff they’ve been through
- Her own psychic abilities
The really heartbreaking part? She still remembers her old friends Miko and Kei, but not the people who’ve become her new family.
Seiko’s Hospitalization
If things weren’t bad enough, Momo’s grandmother Seiko is hospitalized in Shimane. She’s facing another surgery and will be there for at least two to three more months. Seiko has always been the rock of this group – the wise grandmother who guides them through all the supernatural chaos. Without her, everyone’s feeling a bit lost.
Okarun’s Emotional Struggle
I’ve got to give it to Okarun – he’s trying so hard to respect Momo’s boundaries while also dealing with his own heartbreak. He’s decided to try becoming her friend again from scratch, but it’s killing him inside. The scene where he cried after she accused him of taking advantage of her amnesia… man, that was rough.
Character Dynamics: How Things Have Changed
The memory loss has completely shaken up the character dynamics we’ve grown to love. Let me break down how everyone’s relationships have been affected:
| Characters | Previous Relationship | Current Dynamic |
|---|---|---|
| Momo & Okarun | Close friends with romantic tension | Strangers with instinctual connection |
| Momo & Aira | Rivals turned friends | Complete strangers |
| Momo & Jiji | Childhood friends | Still remembers him, but not their recent adventures |
| Okarun & Aira | Friends with occasional tension | Supporting each other through Momo’s amnesia |
| Group Dynamic | Tight-knit supernatural fighting team | Struggling to reconnect while protecting Momo |
Why This Arc Matters?
I know some fans have been complaining about the amnesia trope, calling it cliché. But honestly, I think Tatsu-sensei is using this in a really brilliant way. This isn’t just about Momo losing her memory – it’s about exploring what makes relationships meaningful.
Is it the memories we share, or is it something deeper? Momo still feels drawn to Okarun even though she doesn’t remember him. She knows something’s missing even if she can’t explain what. This arc is asking some really deep questions about the nature of friendship, love, and connection.
Plus, let’s be real – the drama is absolutely delicious! Seeing Okarun so vulnerable, watching Aira try to protect Momo while also dealing with her own feelings, and wondering what Sanjome’s really up to… it’s all just so compelling!
Fan Theories: What Could Happen Next?
I’ve been scrolling through forums and social media, and let me tell you, the Dandadan fandom is buzzing with theories about what’s coming next. Here are some of the most interesting ones I’ve come across:
Theory 1: Momo’s Powers Are Returning
Some fans think Momo’s spiritual awareness and psychokinesis will start returning in Chapter 215. They point out that she still has instincts about Okarun and the others, suggesting her supernatural abilities aren’t completely gone.
Theory 2: Sanjome Is Count Saint-Germain
This one’s pretty popular – that Sanjome is actually Count Saint-Germain in disguise, trying to manipulate Momo while she’s vulnerable. Given that Saint-Germain has been a recurring villain, this would make a lot of sense.
Theory 3: The Memory Loss Is Temporary
A lot of fans believe this amnesia is just temporary and that Momo will regain her memories soon, possibly triggered by a life-threatening situation where she needs her powers to protect Okarun.
Theory 4: A New Villain Is Emerging
Some think Sanjome is working for someone even bigger than Count Saint-Germain, and that this arc is setting up a major new threat for the series.
Personally, I’m leaning toward a combination of theories 1 and 2. I think Momo’s powers will start returning, just in time to deal with whatever Sanjome/Saint-Germain is planning.
What Makes Dandadan So Special?
As someone who reads a lot of manga, I can tell you that Dandadan stands out from the crowd. Here’s why I think it’s become such a phenomenon:
The Perfect Blend of Genres
Dandadan somehow manages to be a romantic comedy, action-packed supernatural story, and emotional drama all at once. One minute you’re laughing at Okarun’s awkwardness, the next you’re on the edge of your seat during a fight scene, and then you’re tearing up at the emotional moments.
Complex Characters
These aren’t your typical shonen characters. Momo’s strong but vulnerable, Okarun’s sweet but insecure, and even the supporting characters have depth and growth. They feel like real people dealing with extraordinary situations.
Stunning Artwork
Yukinobu Tatsu’s art style is absolutely gorgeous. The character designs are distinctive, the action scenes are dynamic, and the emotional moments are conveyed perfectly through facial expressions and body language.
Surprising Plot Twists
Just when you think you know where the story’s going, Tatsu-sensei throws in a twist that completely changes everything. The memory loss arc is a perfect example – nobody saw that coming!
How to Prepare for Chapter 215?
If you want to be fully ready for Chapter 215, here’s what I recommend:
Re-read Recent Chapters
I always go back and re-read the last 5-10 chapters before a new one drops. It helps me remember all the details and pick up on things I might have missed the first time.
Catch Up on the Anime
If you haven’t watched the Dandadan anime yet, now’s the perfect time! It’s a great adaptation that really brings the characters and story to life. Plus, it’s a good refresher on earlier events.

My Personal Thoughts on This Arc
I’ve got to be honest with you guys – this memory loss arc has been tough to read at times. Seeing Momo and Okarun’s relationship basically reset to zero after everything they’ve been through… it hurts! But that’s exactly why it’s such good storytelling.
Tatsu-sensei isn’t taking the easy way out. He’s making these characters (and us readers) really work for their happy ending. And I have faith that it will be worth it in the end.
What I love most about this arc is how it’s exploring different kinds of love and connection. Okarun’s unconditional love for Momo even when she doesn’t remember him, Aira’s protective love as a friend, Jiji’s supportive love as a childhood friend… it’s all so beautifully portrayed.
I’m also really curious about how this will affect the power dynamics of the group. Momo was always one of the strongest fighters, but now she’s vulnerable. Will this force other characters to step up? Will we see new abilities emerge?
