Following the conclusion of the second season, Dandadan announced a third season. That's correct. Dandadan Season 3 is official, which means Okarun, Momo, and the rest of the gang will return for another installment full of eccentric characters and drama.

​​​​​​As previously stated, ​Dandadan Season 2 was phenomenal, which is why it is in pole position to win the Anime of the Year award. The season had some awesome fights involving Okarun, Momo, and Jiji. Furthermore, it highlighted the personal growth of the characters, especially when they faced challenging situations. The pacing was also solid, so the episodes didn't feel too slow. Overall, it was an outstanding season with little to no shortcomings.

Many fans believe that Solo Leveling is the prime candidate to win Anime of the Year, especially since it has claimed the prize once. The second season aired in January 2025, and it generated a ton of hype. The main focus of the anime has always been the action, and season 2 wasn't different either. Sung Jinwoo was constantly fighting powerful opponents, who threatened the country and his loved ones. While the anime was full of action, it lacked in other fields like story and world-building. For this reason, the anime fell a bit flat.

Dandadan Season 3 release date has not been announced.
