Dandadan chapter 193 is set to release on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at 12 am JST, according to the official MANGA Plus website. With the Kito family’s return potentially signaling them as the next threat, if not the antagonists of the upcoming arc, Jin “Jiji” Enjoji is expected to shine, given his history with the subterraneans.
However, the manga's digital publication nature all but confirms that pre-release leaks for the upcoming issue will not be shared. Thankfully, there is at least officially confirmed release information for the series' next installment from sources like Shueisha's MANGA Plus platform.

Where to read Dandadan chapter 193

Fans can read chapter 193 for free on either Viz Media’s official website or Shueisha’s MANGA Plus service. Unfortunately, each platform provides access only to the series' first chapter and the latest three releases.
Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ digital publication offers full access but requires a relatively inexpensive monthly subscription fee in return.
Dandadan chapter 192 recap
Dandadan chapter 192 began with Jin “Jiji” Enjoji asking Vamola if she could still see Momo, but she had no idea who or what he was talking about. Seiko Ayase was equally lost, while Unji Zuma’s vision was said to be all but completely gone, and Daiki Hakono could no longer walk. This indicated that the trio’s respective curses were quickly getting much worse. Seiko instructed Vamola to hold Zuma’s hand and guide him, while Momo switched to Jiji’s shoulder.
He theorized that his strong spiritual power allowed him to sense her better than the others. Daiki then asked Zuma’s friend Raiya why he was helping him despite their confrontational introduction, to which Raiya apologized. He explained that he acted out only for Zuma’s sake, prompting him to ask Raiya why he’d go to such lengths for Zuma. This began a flashback showing Zuma rescuing Raiya from bullies, which quickly transitioned into Zuma helping a young girl.
She was trying to take her own life after being abandoned by her parents and feeling like there was no reason to live. Zuma admitted he had no idea how to help her but expressed how much he valued her ability to make everyone laugh and her happiness. Raiya explained that Zuma saved him and the others, and he’d do anything for him in return. The issue concluded by revealing that the Kito family had returned and were stalking Momo Ayase and Jiji at the airport.
What to expect from Dandadan chapter 193 (speculative)
With the Kito family intent on following Momo Ayase and co to Izumo Grand Shrine, Dandadan chapter 193 will likely see this collective group of characters get underway. The issue will likely open with them all on board their flight and already in the air, with the trip being uneventful so far.
Chapter 193 should then see the Kito family begin planning their moves, likely also revealing what they aim to gain from stalking Momo and the others alike. After they do so, their flight will likely be seen landing with both groups deboarding after. The issue will likely conclude with the Kito family attacking Momo’s group, and Jiji recognizing them in turn.
