Fans can read chapter 185 for free on either Viz Media’s official website or Shueisha’s MANGA Plus service. However, each of these platforms offer only the first and latest three chapters in the series for reading. Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ subscription-based service offers full access to the entire series, but for a relatively inexpensive monthly fee.

Dandadan chapter 184 recap

Expand Tweet

Dandadan chapter 184 began with Aira Shiratori using her hair to pull Rin Sawaki’s severed head to her, with Mai Kawabanga following. Mai explained that Rin’s head was severed when the severed-head dribbler yokai below dunked her through a hoop. Aira then realized that something was spilling out of Rin’s neck as Mai explained what the severed-head dribbler yokai were. Rin then awoke, prompting all three to scream out in shock as they took in the situation.

Mai then explained that what was pouring out of Rin’s neck was her lifeforce, and that while her body was already in the afterlife, her head was still alive. However, if she lost all her lifeforce, then she’d drift in this limbo-like space for eternity. The dribblers then fired some shots at them, which Aira used her body to shield at the expense of falling to the floor and being caught.

The dribblers then tried to dunk her through a hoop, as Aira remembered a playtime session she had as a kid where she and her friends did something similar as a joke. This inspired her to try and save Rin by sending her head up through the bottom of the hoop, which it did. Rin then saved Aira from being dunked in turn. The issue ended with Aira and Rin preparing to fight together, the latter having merged with Mai to assume her Onbusuman idol form.

What to expect from Dandadan chapter 185 (speculative)

Dandadan chapter 185 will likely begin with a continued focus on Aira and Rin as they each fully transform and use their powers to take on the severed-head dribblers. After fighting them briefly, they’ll likely identify who their true enemy is. Rin will likely use her gravity manipulation powers to handle the yokai spirits, while Aira targets the power user, given her excellence in one-on-one combat.

Likewise, chapter 185 should reveal the power user as the teacher Murakami, whose stature and size match that of the person seen stalking Rin in chapter 182’s final panel. The issue will likely end with Aira all but defeating Murakami at the very least, setting up the subsequent release to shift focus to and begin Ken “Okarun” Takakura and Kinta Sakata’s fights.
