2. Recap of Chapter 179 of Dandadan
Chapter 179 of Dandadan begins with Seiko shattering the bull-man’s body, revealing the person that hid beneath. The middle-aged man immediately started begging for mercy, so Seiko and the others started questioning him about why she was getting targeted. The man said an orchestrator contacted him and gave him Seiko’s location and a description of her appearance.
Seiko then said there was another person who attacked them, one that could control the undead. The man explained that the orchestrator sends a mass text, so an overlap may happen with targets. He then took out a few mini knives from his pocket, which Payase identified to be Kozuka knives. Seiko then explained that there used to be a blade called the Asura that could grant the wielder the power of Yokai. The wielder of the blade would keep killing people until his life ran out. Since the blade was too dangerous, it was sealed a very long time ago. However, 5 years ago, someone stole the sword and made Kozuka knives out of it.
The man then explained that the instructions they received were to use the knives to gain the powers of Yokai, and once they gathered enough power, they’d be able to make any wish come true. He then went into a backstory about how he had issues talking to women throughout his life and finally found his woman, who he loved, but she only had 1 year left to live due to what seemed to be an illness. He was obeying the orchestrator because he was willing to take any chance if it could save his wife.
He then said he was introduced to the orchestrator by a colleague at work, who said they could help with his wife’s situation. However, later he found out that the colleague never existed, but he still had memories of this person, but could still not remember their face. After this, we got to see a few police investigating the scene. Based on reports from witnesses, the police approached Seiko, Payase, and Kashimoto to ask them about the scene; however, the three of the disappeared right after this.
3. What To Expect In Chapter 180
Since chapter 179 ended with Seiko saying that she needed to address the issue with Momo before she did any other investigation on the current issue, we’ll likely get to see Seiko heading toward the shrine where the great god Okuninushi is worshipped in chapter 180 of Dandadan. She’ll have to get the magic hammer over there to turn Momo back to normal.
Payase and Kashimoto will be looking into their current issue, but it isn’t guaranteed that they’ll appear in the next chapter. We may, however, get to see Momo and Okarun since they haven’t had an appearance in quite a few chapters.
