Recap of Chapter 216

Dandadan Chapter 216 picks up right after Okarun gave an open confession to Momo, and before there could have been any romantic development, they were attacked by hundreds of aliens and a katana-wielding mummy riding a bicycle. With both of them not able to use their powers like they used to, the best option was to flee from the situation. Both of them needed to focus on their instincts and rely on teamwork.
An interesting event takes place in this chapter when the Serpo launched an attack known as "Awesome Zone." Okarun jumped right in to shield Momo from getting hit. This scene is important as it shows how much his character has grown since he was first introduced. This chapter also revealed that Okarun finally understood how to activate his Ogre Club.

Their goal shifted toward reaching Jiji’s house and thinking about their next plan of action. But the duo was intercepted by the katana-wielding mummy. made his move. He used his bandages to manipulate reality. Anything black would become a void, and one can only be safe on white surfaces, as they would act as a solid platform.
What to expect from Dandadan Chapter 217? (Speculative)

Looking at how the chapter ended, Dandadan Chapter 217 will most likely focus on Okarun and how he uses the Ogre Club. The creator could have given this character a chance to shine, as he has been putting a lot of effort into powering up. It is unlikely that in Dandadan Chapter 217, Momo could get her memories back, but what could happen is that there might be some clarity towards her feelings for Okarun.
Some fans speculate that in Dandadan Chapter 217, Momo could get parts of her memory, but the catch is that none of them are related to Okarun. Others feel that most of Chapter 217 will focus on Okarun fighting against the Mummy, and the final few pages will have a quieter moment. But one thing fans are expecting from this upcoming chapter is to get a Momokarun moment.
Final thoughts
While the manga is on a short break, the fandom is just getting more excited to know what is coming next in Dandadan Chapter 217. All because of how the story is progressing, there is a high chance that the upcoming chapter promises not only more action but possibly a deeper emotional payoff that moves the Momo–Okarun storyline forward.
