The Dan Da Dan anime was announced last year and there’s been so much excitement. This anime is confirmed for an October 2024 release. Turns out the Dan Da Dan anime won’t only be available on Crunchyroll but fans will also be able to watch this anime on Netflix. This information was revealed over five months ago. There’s a Dandadan update but this time it’s the manga.


Dandadan manga on hiatus


The Dandadan manga will be going on a one month hiatus. After the release of Dandadan chapter 163, the release date for chapter 164 was slated for September 2024 which isn’t supposed to be the case. Dandadan is a weekly anime manga (although it has amazing art because Tatsu is always chapters ahead) so chapter 164 was supposed to release on 5th of August but that’s not the case.


Why its on hiatus


The reason for this one month hiatus was revealed on X, formally known as Twitter. This information was released by Shonen Jump News. It turns out the manga is going on a hiatus for its author, Tatsu Yukinobu to carry out further research for the manga or for “researching information for their work”. The information reads:

"Dandadan by Tatsu Yukinobu will undergo a 1-month hiatus during August as the author will be ‘researching information’ for their work

Series is scheduled to resume with Chapter 164 on September 3rd at Shonen Jump+ App"

Dandadan's return

The author was quite humble to reveal why the manga will be going on hiatus. Manga going on hiatus is quite common and most do for several reasons. The One Piece manga usually goes on hiatus because of Eiichiro Oda’s health, the Dragon Ball manga is currently on hiatus which was made known after the passing of popular mangaka, Akira Toriyama. The Dandadan manga might either return on September 2nd or 3rd depending on location and platform. For instance on Shonen Jump App, it’s slated to return on September 3rd but on Mangaplus, it’s slated to return on September 2nd.
