#turbo is the main character

[ifvillainwhysexi]

GRASAHHH

ORIGINALLY, THE GAME BUGGED! AU WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ANGSTY, BUT NOW I HAVE A SLICE OF LIFE AU. (Things may go wrong later....)

Short summary so far, instead of Turbo becoming King Candy, he ends up infiltrating the game Fix-it Felix jr. He's the even worse neighbor of the Nicelanders. And by default, commonly angers Ralph.

SPLATOON TURBO AND KING CANDY AU, Aka strange Cephalo-Roommates Au

From two different places, these two come together to rent a small apartment in Inkopolis. With the two spliting rent, and helping each other take care of a tired small fry called Sour Bill, Turbo and Candy have to figure out the next steps now that they've settled into this new city

Or something like that.

I'm going back to doing stupid shit–

IVE BEEN GIVEN AN IDEA FOR A WRECK-IT RALPH AU ITS 4:15 IN THE MORN9NG AND IM THINKING ABOUT A MEAN FELIX RN

[cherrytry]

I feel like nobody talks about the fact that we don’t know which snail it is. Like how do you know you got THE snail? Are you just gonna put every snail you see in concrete and put it in the ocean? the snails will conspire. and eventually, they will ALL get you

Ways I can think of that “DanDaDan” differs from other shonen series:

* Female MC is as important as male MC

* Canon romance gets consistent development through the series. I think that’s part of the reason why the MC ships with the rivals (Aira, Jiji) aren’t as popular with the fandom for once. The main ship is actually getting good development, so the fanbase doesn’t have to make up headcanons to fill in the space.

* Flips the found family trope on its head by having the main group despise new people whenever they show up and they even actively try to kick them out. The new people only end up staying because they keep lingering around to the point that the main group just gives up and lets them stay.

* The rivals aren’t emo or angst-ridden. Aira is a delusional tryhard popular girl while Jiji is a himbo drama queen. I’d even go as far to say that the MCs are the ones who are emo and angst-ridden.

* Supporting cast is more than just important, they become integral to the story. I’d say that the further you read into DanDaDan, the more it becomes an ensemble cast where everyone is a protagonist in their own right.

* World-building is all over the place, but in a good way. Most other shonen are pretty consistent with what kind of world their characters live in. MHA is superhero-based, Naruto is ninjas and magic, Bleach is spirits, and so on. DanDaDan feels like the author just throws whatever cool shit they can think of into the story. That’s actually the reason why I wrote in a different post that DanDaDan reminds me more of Marvel/DC than any other shonen series, it manages to capture the catch-all insanity of those comics.

* Doesn’t rely on hidden power-ups. The main characters either have to outsmart the villains or they have to train to get better with the powers they already have.

* The pervert comic relief guy is actually endearing for once. Not because of his pervert tendencies, but because he’s so oblivious to how socially inept he is that it’s kind of funny. This is gonna sound strange, but he sorta reminds me of Thor in Thor Ragnarok. Full of himself and oblivious to how dumb he can be. He’s Thor without the good looks lol.

* Flips the “nerdy outcast loser somehow gets a harem” trope. Instead of making Okarun cooler than how he actually is, the story emphasizes that the women who fall for Okarun are as weird as him. Momo is a weird outcast, Aira has main character syndrome, Vamola doesn’t understand how to human because she’s literally not one, Rin thought Okarun was a vampire (and wanted him to be).

* Flips the “elderly figure in charge of the teenagers” trope. I don’t really get motherly figure vibes from Seiko Ayase, I get more “cool wine aunt who is stuck with her niece” vibes. In fact, there was the arc where Okarun showed up to her in spirit mode to get her help with fighting off the alien invasion and Seiko’s response was, “Well, I’m not in the area and I have other shit to do, so you kids figure it out.”

* The series takes the piss out of the trope of mystical/magical items that the group acquired to get their powers. I mean…the main mystical MacGuffin in the series are Okarun’s balls.

* Okarun was about to go into an “I’m weak / I wish I was stronger / I want to get stronger for my friends” breakdown, but Turbo Granny told him to shut up and keep fighting.

* Not afraid to put the “cool girl” in as many funny situations as possible. Off the top of my head, the series built up Momo as this cool, tough girl who doesn’t take shit from anyone…then several chapters later, Okarun found out she got a job at a maid cafe.

(Feel free to add to the list!)

[loosescrewslefty]

A small thing I noticed about Dandadan that I don't see other people talking about much is that the majority of the main cast is made up of women.

Like, when it comes to female characters we have Momo, Seiko, Aira, and Turbo Granny, Vamola, Rin, and now likely Kouki joining in supporting main positions.

And with the guys there's Okarun, Jiji, Kenta and Zuma as more support.

That is a ratio of 7 to 4. Nearly 2/3rds of the major characters are female in a non-harem shonen about fighting ghosts and aliens. Hell, even if Kouki doesn't stick around (unlikely, but possible), that's still a gender split of 6 to 4, which is 3/5ths of the cast being female. That is an extremely abnormal gender ratio in a shonen that doesn't specifically have a main draw of playing off the male fantasy of being the only guy in a mass of beautiful girls who are all fawning over you. In Dandadan, while there are small moments of potential attraction between a few of the girls and Okarun, for the most part their relationship with him is a total nonfactor to their ultimate role on the team, and the girls all end up developing close friendships with each other as the story progresses.
