While the voice actor hasn’t shared any words after the announcement yet, he has been reposting Dandadan updates related to Kinta. Additionally, AJ Beckles, the English voice actor of Okarun, welcomed the new addition to the crew while also hyping up Kinta. The character is already well-loved among manga readers, and it’s about time anime-only fans will also learn his appeal. Kaiju Arc is expected to be the final arc of Season 2, and we may get a small tease of the Space Globalists Arc in the finale. Space Globalists Arc is by far the most intense arc in the series, which will also solve the mystery of the alien who was pretending to be the head of the Kito family in the Cursed House Arc.

(But Who Is Kinta?)
Kinta Sakata is a student at Kami High and appears in the show after Okarun piqued his interest. As someone who is interested in getting attention from others, especially girls, Kinta is especially curious about how Okarun is perceived as attractive by Momo and Aira. He later overhears a conversation about the hunt for Okarun’s kintama, since one of them is still missing.
Kinta has no idea about the supernatural events happening in the city, so he creates a bunch of awkward misunderstandings with his inappropriate language. However, despite his chaotic introduction, he turns out to be a reliable ally to Momo and her friends. His transition from an ordinary boy with selfish motives to a determined hero is what manga readers love most about him.
The Kaiju Arc, which serves as a prologue to the Space Globalists Arc, takes place when Momo and Okarun are still on the hunt for the kintama. However, the sudden appearance of a Godzilla-like creature thwarts their plans. The towering kaiju launches devastating attacks, and it doesn’t take long for Aira and Jiji to arrive at the scene. Surprisingly enough, even Kinta joins the battle and lends them a hand. The character will debut in Season 2 Episode 9, which will be released on August 28th, 2025. You can catch up with the rest of the season on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
Dandadan Season 2 will reach its conclusion in September 2025. Are you excited for Kinta’s anime debut? Share your thoughts about the character in the comments below!
