Synopsis of Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction
When you look at the sky, what do you see? A blue sky? Freedom? A hopeful future? Tokyo residents see none of that. Instead, an ominous alien mothership looms above them, engulfing the city landscape. Three years ago, they arrived. The arrival of the “invaders” triggered the greatest war humanity has ever faced, one that threatened to end the world. The Japanese government rushed to fight the invaders. Weapons were mass produced, sparking controversy and pacifist movements.
That day, everything changed. And yet, nothing has changed. Koyama Kadode and Nakagawa Ouran live out their final days as they always have: going to school, playing with their friends, and doing what any carefree high school girl would do. As they grow up, they learn what it really means to be an adult, in a world where adults seem to be demons who only deceive and destroy. They come to learn that the true threat to humanity is not the Invaders, but humanity itself.
As fans eagerly await more details, the anticipation for the series adaptation continues to build. Share this exciting news with fellow manga and anime enthusiasts, and stay tuned for further updates!
