🚨【Japanese Explanation】🚨 The lyrics of the opening song for Dandadan (‘Otonoke’ by Creepy Nuts) are filled with elements of Japanese occult culture that are the theme of this anime. (e.g., UFO, Ghost, Folklore, Yōkai[≒monster],Urban legend/myth) Here are a few of them. 1️⃣ kuwabara kuwabara kuwabara *spoken to ward off misfortune in Japan ; knock on wood (US) / touch wood (UK) 【Original usage : kuwabarakuwabara (JP)】 2️⃣ with ghosts like Sada-chan and Kaya-chan *Sada-chan(Sadako) and Kaya-chan(Kayako) is a ghost from a Japanese horror movie. (“The Ring” and “Ju-On”) 3️⃣ I’m inside, I’m inside, I’m inside, *It is the words of Yōkai(≒ monster) called “Yamanoke”, which appears in a scary story posted on a 2007 2chan thread. In this story, Yamanoke possessed the girl and muttered eerily, “I am inside, inside, inside, inside, inside”. And "Yamanoke, meaning 'Mountain Yōkai[≒monster]' inspired the song title 'Otonoke (Sound Yōkai[≒monster]).' 'Otonoke' plays on 'Yamanoke,' replacing 'Yama' (mountain) with 'Oto' (sound) to create a new concept from the original legend." 4️⃣ 4 japanese foot 4 japanese sun 4 bu tall It isn’t “4 bu tall”, but “(4 japanese foot 4 japanese sun 4 bu) tall”. This “4 japanese foot 4 japanese sun 4 bu” represents the length of the height. (Example) He is 162 cm tall. More specifically, 尺(shaku / foot) 寸(sun) 分(bu) are units of the old Japanese system of measures. 尺(a shaku / foot=0.3048 m) 寸(a sun=3.03 cm) 分(a bu = 0.303 cm) Therefore, 四尺四寸四分 【四(4;yon)尺(shaku)四(4;yon)寸(sun) 四(4;yon)分(bu)】is 4×0.3048m(shaku) + 4×3.03cm(sun)+ 4×0.303cm(bu). Also, "四尺四寸四分様(yonshaku•yonsun•yonbu-sama)" is a term that plays on the name of 八尺様(Hasshaku-sama), a character from Japanese urban legends. Hasshaku-sama is a female Yōkai[≒monster], known for her towering height of approximately 2.4 meters (eight shaku).

Regarding "Kuwabara kuwabara" That actually means something like "knock on wood", It's a phrase used to ward off lightning.

according to jp folklore, kuwabara is a name of a region where its lord was killed unjustly. as his vengeful sprit roam around to enact vengence, people keep shouting kuwabara kuwabara so the lord will not hurt his own people

Never thought about it that way, now i´m getting it more and more, this song is from Ken´s perspective, it´s him talking about how he feels.
I love how flow and cadence in rap is something that just transcends language. I don't understand what he is saying, but I can hear the rhyme scheme and flow all the same. 🔥

If you meant about the Crunchyroll awards or something Otonoke will likely to be nominated at the 2025 Crunchyroll awards and Bling Bang Bang Born will be nominated at the 2024 Crunchyroll awards The reason is because of recency bias that the Crunchyroll starts voting in February and the awards will be on March. Instead of Winter until Autumn of the same year, it is now Autumn until Summer from last year till this year. I hope this helps on what I'm talking about 😅

@@HebiTan Shibuya Arc will be part of the 2024 awards if it gets nominated, even though it's not technically a Fall season, it's considered to be a Part 2 of Season 2 considering how long the Arc is But yeah, I agree with you tho And also, there are best animes that have came that's not JJK like Frieren Dungeon Meshi + others and that's absolutely good sign.

I always like the ending of the chorus section - it kinda feels like the lyrics are saying that the song itself is a youkai.
