In an interview, Shihei Lin,Dandadan’seditor, also pointed towards Tatsu as an outstanding talent at depicting battle scenes. He even claimed,
As for battle scenes, I think Yukinobu Tatsu is probably the best in Japan today. There are many moments where the camera angle was right, and the work was drawn at a level that would normally take two or three weeks to complete.
Lin was flabbergasted by how detailed the works that Tatsu drew were, even under a lot of stress. Those panels could even beat other Shonen manga art, which is published in monthly magazines. Lin believes, there are only a few people who can draw at this density. He also believed that Tatsu could reach an even wider audience, which always made him enthusiastic about the future ofDandadan.
Reading Dandadan Will Have You Laughing and Crying at The Same Time
That’s not all. The discussion continued, as the excited editor and Tatsu went on to answer the questions in much more detail. As you might already know,Dandandanis basically a funny action manga that combines hilarious moments with some heart-pulling scenes. According to Lin, it might make one laugh and shed tears while reading it, citing how great a story it holds.
The crying and sad parts are carefully drawn, so there is a dazzling moment when you find yourself crying while you are laughing.
All crying and sad parts were carefully made so that when you reach a particular moment, readers will end up crying while laughing. This aspect of the narrative makes the series truly unforgettable.

It is this creative synergy that has broughtthis modern masterpieceto life. With its absurdly awesome narrative,Dandadanpromises its readers an exhilarating ride with plenty of surprises along the way.
