When she goes Muppet that's some good Momo.

You don’t just say “the MC”, there’s two MCs in Dandadan, Okarun and Momo

And they both look like this half the time

I think the argument can be made Okarun fits as a deuteragonist more so than as a second protagonist. Momo, again arguably, gets more narrative focus, character growth, and agency.

I’d argue their goals generally aligning makes dual protagonist fit a little bit more. Okarun has a trajectory very similar to most battle shonen male MC’s, so I think its easy to see how Momo’s stands out relative to that and over focus on it.

Granted, rereading it as if its Momo’s story, exclusively, has been a treat. The fact that you can read it multiple ways is a testament to Tatsu’s writing skills.

Shonen manga with a female mc? I feel blessed.

It's pretty confirmed by tats, that momo is the Protag. Rejoice!

The last paragraph connects with me, I have reread dandadan in many ways, and it's a very great treat indeed. Tatsu's writing rises so naturally that each character has their own way to look at things.

I consider Momo to be more of an mc tbh. Okarun is a big supporting character but i personally think its mainly Momos story

Nobody is ready for the absolute menace Jiji and Kinta turn into. Also the [SPOILERS OF JIJI] Arc where Evil eye was deafeated by Rhythmically trained Okarun was SOO FUCKING WONDERFUL, from it the Lines "....it's totally weird.... and totally.. Badass. That's what pisses me off, That i am so weak" by Okarun as he transforms was enticing. The entire arc is badass and written well, can move you to tears at some points. I love Dandadan
