A brief recap of Dandadan season 1 episode 2
Dandadan season 2 episode 2, titled The Evil Eye, continues after the Tsuchinoko cryptid attack. Affected by its psychic waves, Okarun attacks Jiji and tries to take his own life. Momo also falls under the same influence. Turbo Granny explains that the deathworm emits suicidal psychic waves.
Jiji realizes that the Tsuchinoko attacks with sound vibrations. He tries to keep them both from taking their own life while keeping them safe from the cryptid’s attacks, which proves challenging.
Just as all hope seems lost, the Evil Eye suddenly appears. Its entrance stops the Tsuchinoko’s moves. Momo and Okarun regain their senses. Turbo Granny warns them not to look into the Evil Eye’s gaze, as it also induces madness and suicidal impulses.
Momo notes that it’s similar to the Tsuchinoko’s psychic attack, and the two are canceling each other out. Using the opportunity, Okarun goes full throttle and manages to decapitate the Tsuchinoko. However, the force sends him flying, while the cryptid regenerates and continues attacking.
As the group flees, Jiji asks Evil Eye if it was responsible for his parents’ deaths. Instead of replying, the yokai looks into Jiji’s eyes, triggering a flashback. Jiji learns the Evil Eye’s past. Once a frail boy, he was offered as a human sacrifice to the Tsuchinoko by the Kito family, tied to a post as magma consumed him.
His soul remained trapped, watching families repeatedly suffer similar fates. Enraged by the endless cycle of cruelty, he fused with a child being sacrificed and became the vengeful Evil Eye.
Back in the present, Jiji insists the Evil Eye isn’t evil, just misunderstood. He rushes to free its trapped spirit. Momo and Turbo Granny follow. He finds the boy’s corpse still tied to the post. As Jiji approaches, the Tsuchinoko strikes again, incapacitating the group with electricity and trapping them in a glue-like substance.
Momo tries to escape using her powers, but Jiji speaks with the Evil Eye. After hearing its painful story, Jiji apologizes for misunderstanding it and promises to play with it. The Evil Eye, seemingly waiting for this moment, possesses Jiji’s body.
The Tsuchinoko attacks again, but the Evil Eye, possessing Jiji, decapitates it and declares he will now kill all humans. Momo tries to snap Jiji out of it, but the yokai attacks her. Turbo Granny cites that Evil Eye wanted to acquire Jiji’s powerful spiritual body all along and warns Momo that Jiji is no longer on their side.
As Jiji prepares to strike Momo, Okarun returns, blocking the attack. The episode ends on a tense cliffhanger as Okarun vs. the Evil Eye showdown begins.
What to expect in Dandadan season 2 episode 3? (speculative)
With Okarun’s clash against the Evil Eye-possessed Jiji about to begin, Dandadan season 2 episode 3 is set to focus on their intense showdown.
The next episode will likely delve into how Okarun, Momo, and Turbo Granny handle the challenge of confronting both the Evil Eye and the Tsuchinoko, two incredibly powerful adversaries, simultaneously. Fans can expect the tension, action, and intensity to rise as Jiji’s fate remains uncertain.
