DANDADAN, CHAPTER 172

Dandadan Manga Chapter 172 Summary

Pygmies, Fire, and a Hidden Enemy!

If you’re following the wild ride of the Dandadan manga, Chapter 172 does not disappoint. Packed with fast-paced action, clever tactics, and some hair-raising (literally) moments, this chapter keeps the momentum going strong. Let’s break it down!

🚨 Fire Breaks Out – Momo Takes Charge

As flames threaten Aira, Momo urges her to undo her hair before it catches fire completely. Just when things get dangerous, Okarun steps in with a knife and slices off the burning hair, saving Aira in the nick of time.

But that’s not all—cautious of the gas-filled room potentially exploding, Momo hands Aira the knife to deal with her tangled locks while she works on extinguishing the fire herself.

🔪 The Knife Storm & the Pygmy Invasion

As if a fire wasn’t enough, a barrage of flying knives comes their way. Both girls block the onslaught while Momo alerts Okarun: the room is swarming with pygmies—millions of them. Some are even climbing on him!

Okarun, realizing the threat, takes off his shirt to shake off the clingy creatures. But the real horror begins when these pygmies start stitching his shirt, pants, and Aira’s blazer to the floor, immobilizing them. With knives and even toothpicks being launched at them, the group is in serious trouble.

🧠 Momo’s Plan: Use Movement to Distract

Fighting off an endless wave of pygmies, Momo deduces that someone is controlling them from the shadows. The key to survival? Attack the controller.

She instructs Okarun and Aira to remove their upper clothing—a bold but strategic move to avoid being stitched again—and run around the room to distract the pygmies.

While skeptical at first, Okarun dodges a fresh barrage of knives with unexpected agility, leaving Momo and Aira stunned. It’s a brief moment of triumph, but it doesn’t last long…

🪡 Stitched Down—But Not Defeated

Just as things seem to improve, Okarun notices his left hand is sewn to the floor. Aira’s in the same situation. Vulnerable and pinned down, their fate seems sealed—until Momo figures it out.

The pygmies hesitate—a crucial giveaway. Momo locks onto the controller’s location and with her psychic powers, hurls a desk toward him, revealing Kouki hiding under a camouflage cloak. Mystery solved!
