With the release of Dandadan episode 7, the Yukinobu Tatsu anime revealed the gut-wrenching backstory of Acrobatic Silky. Until the end of the previous episode, fans were left wondering about the relationship between the Yokai and Aira. However, after the latest episode, a new question arises: Does Yukinobu Tatsu reveal the fate of Acrobatic Silky's daughter in Dandadan?

No, manga creator Yukinobu Tatsu does not reveal the fate of Acrobatic Silky's daughter in Dandadan. While the anime does hint at a possible outcome, there is nothing set in stone. Hence, almost any deduction made by fans is as good as any. Fans can only hope that the growing interest in the story arc convinces the creator to reveal the much-needed details soon.

As revealed in Dandadan episode 7, Acrobatic Silky was a struggling single mother in her past, who worked multiple jobs to make ends meet and raise her daughter. Apparently, she had also borrowed some money as part of this effort. However, one day, the men she owed money to invaded her home to collect their debt.

As Acrobatic Silky was low on money, the men beat her, collected as much money as they could, and kidnapped her daughter. The mother desperately chased after their van, but her efforts proved futile as the van disappeared from her sight. Unfortunately, this is all that the manga creator has confirmed about Acrobatic Silky's daughter in the series.

Other than this, the series has only given fans one hint about the daughter's fate. Just as Acrobatic Silky was disappearing and Aira hugged her, Momo Ayase was shown hoping that the Yokai and her daughter live peacefully in a better place.

While this is nothing concrete, there is a possibility that the manga creator depicted this scene to suggest that Acrobatic Silky's daughter had already passed away and was waiting for her mother in a better place.

This may sound like the worst-case scenario to some fans. However, considering the number of things that could happen to a small girl after being kidnapped by strangers, as bad as it may sound, unless she can get away, death might be the best way out.

Given that the men who invaded Acrobatic Silky's house were after the money she owed to them, they likely sold her daughter off as a slave to get the money back. If that is the case, she is likely to be treated poorly for the rest of her life and end up in a similar situation as her mother. The only other possibility is that the men killed the daughter and harvested her organs for money.

Hopefully, manga creator Yukinobu Tatsu will take note of the number of people curious around this topic and reveal what truly happened to Acrobatic Silky's daughter after she was separated from her mother.
