‘Dan Da Dan’ Confirms Season 3 Will Air in 2027 and Reveals New Key Visual

Science Saru will return with a third season of “Dan Da Dan,” airing in 2027, the studio revealed at Jump Festa 2026 on December 21, unveiling a new major visual for the supernatural comedy series.

The anime’s debut season aired from October to December 2024, and the second season from July to September 2025. The series is an adaptation of Yukinobu Tatsu’s manga, which has sold over 12 million copies and continues every Tuesday on Shueisha’s manga magazine app Shonen Jump+.

“Dan Da Dan” centers on Momo (voiced by Shion Wakayama), a high school student from a family of spiritual mediums, and her classmate Okarun (voiced by Natsuki Hanae), an occult enthusiast. After Momo saves Okarun from bullies, an argument ensues between the ghostly believer Momo and the extraterrestrial believer Okarun. To settle their debate, Momo visits an abandoned UFO hotspot in a hospital, while Okarun explores a haunted tunnel, where both encounter unexpected creatures. Momo awakens hidden spiritual powers, while Okarun gains curse abilities, leading them into paranormal battles and a potential romance.

Mainichi Broadcasting System (MBS) co-produces the series. The Osaka-based broadcaster has been involved in anime production for more than 50 years, including franchises such as ‘Attack on Titan’, ‘Full Metal Alchemist’, ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ and the influential film ‘Akira’.

Science Saru has produced television, film and streaming projects including ‘Lu Over the Wall’, ‘Devilman crybaby’, ‘Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!’, ‘Inu-Oh’ and ‘The Colors Within’. The studio’s upcoming releases include the TV anime series “The Ghost in the Shell” and “Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia,” both slated to air in 2026.
