Dandadan Chapter 220 has taken the story to a lighter note and focused on the romantic development of Okarun and Momo. After their fight with Mr. Dris and the creator, which also brought back Turbo Granny, fans got to witness a wholesome scene. This is a welcome change of pace since Momo lost her memories; the narrative has been intense for quite some time now. Readers are also enjoying that Okarun is not waiting for Momo Ayase to regain her memory.
He is self-aware of how he feels towards her and is not afraid anymore to pursue. In Dandadan Chapter 220, he has shown how his character has developed, and it is not just physical strength, but he is also emotionally more mature. Because of this, the chapter has ended up offering a surprisingly tender slice-of-life moment that quietly pushes the story and its central romance forward.
Healing wounds at the Ayase residence

After the battle with Mr. Dris, we see that Ayase Momo has lost her strength to the point that she is not even able to pick herself up. So when Okarun offered a piggyback ride to her place. He is ever the gentle man as he leaves her outside her gate and decides to go home. But she is not ready to let him go and offers to come inside so she can treat his injuries.
It’s a small but powerful moment that underscores how instinctive her concern for Okarun is, even with her memories still missing. This scene in Dandadan Chapter 220 reinforces one of the series' greatest strengths, and that is emotional continuity. Even without her memories, she understands that there is a bond with Okarun that is different from others. The series once again proves that character bonds matter more than convenient plot resets.
Dinner, bickering, and Vamola stealing every scene

Vamola's presence elevates the chapter from sweet to unforgettable. Her innocent enthusiasm, by inviting Okarun to stay for dinner and happily watching the awkward tension unfold, ends up adding warmth without derailing the focus. During dinner, Momo and Okarun repeatedly steal glances at each other, both denying it when confronted.
That is followed up by their usual bickering. Readers have noted that their bickering is classic Dandadan: fast, awkward, sincere, and laugh-out-loud funny. Vamola in Dandadan Chapter 220 ends up interpreting their argument as proof that they “get along” feels unintentionally wise. Fans are calling her the best wing-woman. It seems like everyone around the duo is intentionally or unintentionally nudging them to face their true feelings.
Aliens, curses, and quiet worldbuilding

In Dandadan Chapter 220, the creator has delivered crucial worldbuilding without feeling heavy. While washing dishes, Okarun explains the Serpo aliens to Momo and tells her about their motive to stay on Earth and why they have been behind people like them. He also strongly recommends that she always stay with one of their allies, like Jiji or Aira, because she still does not have her powers and needs to be protected. Currently, this concern by Okarun in Dandadan Chapter 220 is important to talk about because of how he is thinking practically and prioritizes her safety, even when it brings up uncomfortable feelings.
The staring contest that changes everything in Dandadan Chapter 220

The funniest and cutest moments in Dandadan Chapter 220 come when both of them locked eyes, invoking a “rule” she supposedly made earlier. It states that whoever looks away first loses and must do whatever the winner asks. Momo ends up getting flustered and looks away. He uses his opportunity to calmly ask her out on a date. It is undeniable progress.
Okarun, in this chapter, did not hesitate, joke, or backtrack; rather, he asked clearly, and that confidence feels earned. Most likely, the next episode will continue to focus on their romantic development. In the end, this installment is proof that, no matter how weird the universe gets, Momo and Okarun are always being pulled back together.
