Tickets are on sale now, and a new trailer has been released for DAN DA DAN: EVIL EYE, the global theatrical premiere of the second season of the smash-hit anime series DAN DA DAN.
DAN DA DAN: EVIL EYE comes to North American theaters nationwide in original Japanese and English language dubbed screenings, as well as in select D-BOX screens, beginning June 6th from GKIDS. DAN DA DAN: EVIL EYE kicks off the thrillingly eerie EVIL EYE arc, which began in the first season’s last episode. The DAN DA DAN: EVIL EYE theatrical event screens last season’s start of the EVIL EYE arc, along with the first three episodes of the new second season, in addition to an exclusive interview with series co-directors Fuga Yamashiro and Abel Gongora. Following the global theatrical rollout, DAN DA DAN comes to ADN, Crunchyroll, Hulu, Muse, Netflix, and other streaming platforms starting July 3rd.
The critically lauded and wildly popular show returns for a new chapter, following the first season’s conclusion in December 2024. With production from the acclaimed animation studio Science SARU (DEVILMAN crybaby, INU-OH, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off), the series’ second season is co-directed by Fuga Yamashiro, director of the first season, and longtime Science SARU veteran Abel Gongora, who directed the highly acclaimed opening theme animation of the series’ first season. Composer Kensuke Ushio (Chainsaw Man, DEVILMAN crybaby) returns to the production for the score.
The first season of DAN DA DAN was a global breakout series of 2024. The blistering and genre-bending sci-fi comedy romance garnered widespread critical and audience acclaim for its fantastic animation, sharp writing, and endearing characters. The first season’s opening theme song, “Otonoke” from the hit duo Creepy Nuts, became a social media phenomenon, maintaining a record-breaking run at No. 1 for 20 weeks on the Billboard Global Japan Songs list. The series was praised by The New York Times, Washington Post, Teen Vogue, and more, with global audiences eagerly awaiting the show’s return.
DAN DA DAN is a television adaptation of author Yukinobu Tatsu’s manga of the same name, which is currently serialized in the wildly popular “Shonen Jump Plus” by SHUEISHA, under the globally beloved Shonen Jump imprint. Yukinobu Tatsu previously worked as an assistant to acclaimed author Tatsuki Fujimoto on his global hit series “Chainsaw Man” and “Fire Punch,” and Yuji Kaku on “Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku.” The original manga series recently crossed 10 million in sales, more than doubling its circulation following the global success of the animated series.
