Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

While I totally get it's not going to be for everybody, I really don't think that's fair either. As someone who has read a lot of YA and paranormal romance slop over the years I don't see Dandadan breaking any ecchi ground that hasn't been trod over countless times before. If anything I'd say it's uniqueness is in how it's using it (so far!🤞) to reframe the audience's feelings towards things like violence against women and relationship issues. For example, in the past two episodes because of a typical misunderstanding trope, the boy mc has been lamenting his poor communication towards girl mc and in the middle of this latest episode's battle starts doing therapy shit blurting out to her how important her perception of him is to him and how he wants to work to avoid future miscommunications.
Again, it's not for everybody, but there is a demographic shows like this are targeted towards and it is saying interesting things to them.
Since the show came out, and with the manga’s latest arc, I’ve been meaning to make a “In Defense of Dan Da Dan” post. Because the manga is actually very progressive. It’s been such a crazy ride catching up to the current arc.
I'm gonna hit the manga after this season.
Oh my god the manga art is so good. It’s legitimately one of my favorite reads right now.
Cool. Looking forward to it!
I'll give it a chance. But the older the get, the less tolerance I have for that kind of thing.
I'm not advocating that you should, it's very likely not going to be for you if the first episode is a turn off. Just that it shouldn't be discounted because it's not for you.
Honestly, it's rather tame compared to both Japanese and non-japanese stuff (I just read Cuckoo last month😅) I've read, but as anime's general audience grows, it's reputation is always going to lower the tolerance people have for the ecchi stuff.
