A brief recap of Dandadan chapter 117

After defeating the mecha by making the berserker Kaiju fall straight from the sky, Kinta and Vamola escaped the crash using the ejection seat. By reclaiming his family jewel, Okarun finally closed the interdimensional portal and celebrated their victory with Momo and Shrimp. Suddenly, the sky cracked open, and many alien ships entered Earth’s atmosphere.

Considering the mecha Kaiju to be their last resort in the battle, Momo, Shrimp, and Okarun headed in different directions to look for Kinta and Vamola. Out of the blue, Reiko Kashima appeared in front of Momo to take her revenge. However, the current state of Japan gave a glimpse of her human days, when she was just a child, crying out for her mother amidst an ongoing war.

Furious at the alien bombardment, Reiko vowed to eliminate them using her mirror. After taking control of things that could reflect, Reiko conjured a massive hand that seized the alien mother ship and crushed it like a soda can.

What to expect from Dandadan chapter 118 (speculative)

Dandadan chapter 118 will see Reiko taking matters into her own hands. As given by Okarun’s statement in the past, the only entities who are safeguarding Earth from potential harm are the demons and spirits.

The next chapter will highlight the extent of Reiko’s abilities that were never shown before. Momo’s grandmother, Seiko Ayase, is expected to make her return in the upcoming installment.
