Overview
- Dan Da Dan: Evil Eye is a compilation film that stitches together a season one recap with the first three episodes of season two into a 93-minute theatrical event.
- Science SARU’s co-directors Fūga Yamashiro and Abel Gongora employed bold color coding—with violet hues tied to the Evil Eye arc—and experimental backgrounds that reviewers have lauded for their cinematic flair.
- Abel Gongora singled out Jiji’s transformation scene as a personal highlight, combining pencil-drawn sequences and dynamic compositing to capture its horror and emotional weight.
- Critics and fans have argued that limiting the film to three episodes leaves the story feeling unfinished and more like a promotional teaser than a standalone feature.
- Season two will premiere on Netflix, Crunchyroll and Hulu on July 3 with a darker tone and the continuation of the Evil Eye storyline left open in the movie.
