One of the reasons I feel so attached to Dandadan is that it has genuine references to traditional Japanese occultism, Shinto, Buddhism, etc. Even Momo's psychic powers are loosely based on concepts of energy or "chi" (or "ki" technically bc it's Japan) practiced in many cultures. Obviously it's a shonen manga, so it's exaggerated. But I myself am becoming interested in the history of occultism and I think that blend of real Japanese traditions and legends with the action manga vibe is a cool combo.
