2. Recap of Episode 5 of Dandadan

In Dandadan Episode 5, “Like, Where Are Your Balls?”, we see Okarun and Momo navigating a surprisingly emotional and awkward day at school as they try to figure out their new friendship. Okarun is anxious about how to act around Momo, especially since she’s popular, while he’s known as an otaku loner. Despite his worries, Momo greets him warmly at school, showing she doesn’t care about their social differences. Throughout the day, both look for each other but repeatedly miss, leaving each wondering if they’ve upset the other.

During lunch, they finally meet, accidentally bump heads, and end up sharing an accidental kiss—witnessed by Momo’s friends, which leads to a flurry of embarrassment. Both Okarun and Momo awkwardly deny liking each other, though Momo’s friends suspect there’s more between them. Later, Okarun realizes he’s still missing his “family jewels” due to Turbo Granny’s curse, and this becomes his new concern.

After school, Momo sees Okarun with a new girl, Aira, who initially seems friendly but then looks down on him after parting ways. Jealous and protective, Momo uses her powers to drop a washbasin on Aira’s head before whisking Okarun away. On the way home, Okarun explains his missing “jewels” issue, and Momo takes him to her grandmother, Seiko, for help.

Seiko attempts an exorcism to remove Turbo Granny’s lingering presence from Okarun, which involves transferring her consciousness into a cat doll. After some struggle, they succeed, but Turbo Granny warns them that killing her would leave Okarun permanently cursed. The episode ends with Turbo Granny reluctantly agreeing to an alliance, but only after admitting she lost Okarun’s missing parts during their previous fight.

3. Speculation of Episode 6 of Dandadan

Given how Episode 6 unfolds, it seems likely that Turbo Granny’s “alliance” with Okarun and Momo will bring more chaos than help. Since she admitted to losing Okarun’s “family jewels” in their previous battle, there’s a good chance they’ll have to go on a wild hunt to recover them—possibly involving other spirits or supernatural beings.

Plus, with Aira’s introduction and her apparent disdain for Okarun, she may become a future obstacle or even an unexpected ally if she gets roped into the supernatural world.

Okarun and Momo’s relationship also seems ready to deepen, with each episode pushing them closer despite the awkwardness. So, as the stakes get higher, their connection will likely become the key to dealing with Turbo Granny and whatever else is on the way.
