After Okarun's bold confession, fans are waiting for Dandadan Chapter 216 as everyone is excited to know what is going to happen next. The previous chapter had ended on a cliffhanger as we not only got an open confession but also the duo might have to face multiple villains.

According to the official sources, Dandadan Chapter 216 will be released on Monday, November 3, 2025. Fans of this series can access these chapters digitally on Shueisha Manga Plus and Viz Media. These platforms will be part of a simulcast, meaning readers around the world will have access at the same time.


Recap of Chapter 215

Chapter 215 was mainly focused on Momo and how her memory loss was affecting her emotions. Even if she does not remember who Counter Saint Germain is, there was something about him that kept bugging her. This proves that she might not have her memories, but her gut feelings are on point.

Saint Germain tried to take advantage of this situation and gave her a whistle. He claims to be a crime prevention whistle, but anyone who has been reading Dandadan for long knows that something coming from him cannot be that simple.

The chapter continues with Momo hanging out with her best friends, Miko and Kei. Interestingly, her friends play the part of being the ultimate wingwomen in ensuring that the romance between Okarun and Momo continues. They are worried that she is not able to remember her feelings towards him, which is causing emotional distance between the duo.

So her best friends take Okarun and Momo on an impromptu date at a mummy museum exhibit. This was a positive step towards ensuring that the relationship between the main characters finally has some needed development. When they were in the museum, Okarun, being a nerd, went on passionately explaining theories about mummies and aliens.

This kind of personality he has was initially the reason that made Momo have feelings for him. Despite not remembering their history, she found herself naturally entertained and flustered, a subtle reminder that emotions can outlast memory. Eventually, her friends leave without informing, which forces the duo to talk with each other. Momo asks Okarun if he liked her.

Then comes a moment that caused the fandom to go crazy. Okarun, being a shy kid for the first time, does not hesitate. Rather, he openly admits that he loves her, and she, too, has feelings for him. Momo is not ready to accept his answer and is clearly embarrassed. But just as the air began to clear between them, chaos returned. A mummy on a bicycle carrying a katana appeared, followed by a Serpo ambush that sent fans into a frenzy online.


What to expect from Dandadan Chapter 216 (Speculative)

With the Serpos reappearing, Dandadan Chapter 216 is expected to launch us straight into a new battle sequence. There’s a growing theory that Count Saint Germain and the Serpos might be orchestrating this event to lure Momo into blowing the whistle, possibly summoning Germain himself under the guise of “saving” her.

If that happens, it could be the perfect setup for the next major arc: Momo regaining her powers and memories. The series has repeatedly hinted that her psychic potential is tied to the “id cosmos,” a mysterious energy source that Count Saint Germain desperately seeks. Dandadan Chapter 216 might push Momo into a situation where she’s forced to make an impossible choice: save her friends or sacrifice her power.

Fans on social media are already debating whether the whistle is a trap or a genuine lifeline. Either way, Momo’s vulnerability is at its peak right now. The Serpos know it, Count Saint Germain knows it, and Okarun’s desperation to protect her might make things even more complicated, and all of this could be reflected in Dandadan Chapter 216.


Final thoughts

As fans are waiting for Dandadan Chapter 216, we can expect one thing for sure that the chapter is going to have the same charm that has caused fans to stay loyal to the series. Moreover, the upcoming chapter has built itself to have a battle with maybe another vulnerable moment with the main duo. In the end, Dandadan Chapter 216 will almost certainly change the course of Momo and Okarun’s story once again.
