About this Collection

This first volume of Yukinobu Tatsu's supernatural action-comedy series introduces high schoolers Momo Ayase and Ken Takakura, who bond over their shared belief in ghosts and aliens—only to discover both are real. After a bizarre encounter leaves Ken cursed and Momo awakening psychic powers, the pair must navigate a chaotic world of paranormal threats and bizarre battles. This collection kicks off the wildly popular Shonen Jump series with its signature blend of humor, heart, and high-octane weirdness.

"That's How Love Starts, Ya Know" kicks off Dandadan #1 with a pulse-pounding blend of supernatural intrigue and teenage skepticism. Written by Yukinobu Tatsu, Kumar Sivasubramanian, and Jennifer LeBlanc, and illustrated by Tatsu with inks and lettering by the same, the story follows Momo and Ken as their playful debate over aliens and demons spirals into a terrifying real-life encounter—each facing a supernatural force that defies their disbelief. The cover by Yukinobu Tatsu perfectly captures the series’ eerie charm, setting the stage for a mystery that’s equal parts chilling and heartfelt.
