The official trailer for the second season has offered a look at the most important arcs that will be adapted. One of them will be the Cursed House Arc, which spans from chapters 34 to 50 of the manga. In it, the protagonists will face dark mysteries related to the house of Jiji, Momo's childhood friend. This arc will delve deeper into the relationship between Momo and Okarun as they face new supernatural threats.

In addition, the promotional image of the season includes clues about the Evil Eye Arc, which runs from chapters 57 to 62. This segment will bring with it intense action and training scenes, where the dynamics between the heroes and their villains will become even more fascinating.

Although it has not been officially confirmed, it is also likely that we will see part of the Kaiju Arc (chapters 63-73), which introduces Vamola, a key character in the plot, and expands the Dandadan universe with new conflicts. Season 2 could end with a pivotal moment in this arc, setting the stage for future narrative developments.
