This collection picks up after the introduction of the Serpoian aliens and delves deeper into the mysterious Turbo Granny curse, with the duo facing new threats and uncovering more about their own abilities.
In "Merge! Serpo Dover Demon Nessie!", the Serpoians fuse with the Dover Demon and the legendary plesiosaur known as "Nessie" for a climactic assault on the three students. With the stakes at their highest, Momo chooses to face the merged beast alone, relying on her psychic powers to stand a chance. Written by Yukinobu Tatsu, Kumar Sivasubramanian, and Jennifer LeBlanc, with art and inks by Tatsu and letters by Kyla Aiko, the issue’s cover by Yukinobu Tatsu captures the chaos in bold, dynamic strokes.
In "Merge! Serpo Dover Demon Nessie!", Momo faces down a terrifying fusion of alien and mythic forces when the Serpoians merge with the Dover Demon and the legendary Nessie. With the fate of the three students hanging in the balance, Momo must rely on her psychic powers to confront the monstrous amalgamation alone.
In "It Makes Your Heart Race, Don't It?" from Dandadan #4, Momo confronts the Serpoians in a pulse-pounding showdown that leaves three students stranded back in their high school—nearly bare and utterly bewildered. Later, Ken hesitates before trying to make sense of what happened between him and Aira, the moment hanging in the air like something neither of them can quite name.
In "We Picked Up a Kappa Monster," Jo and Momo stumble upon a stranded alien creature with a mysterious past, leading them to seek answers from Seiko. As the trio unravels the truth behind the being’s arrival, they’re drawn into a quiet but unsettling mystery that blurs the line between alien and human.
In "That's a Premonition About the Turmoils of Love," a sudden visit from Momo’s childhood friend stirs unease—especially for Ken, who feels his place in her life slipping as the mysterious stranger claims to be haunted by something in a house only Momo seems able to see. The tension between old bonds and new feelings grows as the line between memory and menace blurs.
In "First Love" from Dandadan #4, Jo’s first day at Ken and Momo’s high school takes a surreal turn when a lifelike anatomy mannequin suddenly bolts across the courtyard, racing toward the city. The story unfolds with a quiet unease, blending the mundane rhythm of school life with something deeply uncanny.
In "Don't Give Up!" from Dandadan #4, Ken, Momo, and Jiji are swept into a frantic city-wide chase after a mysterious anatomy mannequin, leading them to a forgotten junkyard where the true source of the mannequin’s strange pursuit lies hidden. The story unfolds with tense momentum, blending eerie suspense and unexpected turns in a world where the line between the ordinary and the uncanny blurs.
In "The Life of an Anatomical Model," a quiet bond forms between Seiko and a sentient anatomy mannequin, blurring lines between observer and observed. As Momo reluctantly chaperones their nightly visits and Ken grows uneasy with Jiji’s closeness to her, the fragile rhythm of their strange arrangement begins to shift.
In "Let's Go to the Cursed House!" from Dandadan #4, Momo takes on a spooky mission to investigate Jiji’s abandoned home, with Seiko’s powers limited to the prefecture. Ken tags along, not just to help—but to keep an eye on Jiji’s growing interest in Momo.
In "Eggs," Turbo Granny’s sudden urge to buy a dozen eggs after a TV ad leads to a hilariously clumsy sprint to the store—where her stumpy legs quickly prove they’re no match for the mission. The story captures her determined yet utterly unsteady journey with a perfect blend of whimsy and physical comedy.
