Apparently the whole "romance" angle is just the typical anime bait and switch for "comedic" purpose. I hate that.

I'm paraphrasing, but that person basically said they would not watch the anime because they have read the manga and the romance is mostly background noise brought up for comedic purpose but isn't developed in any meaningful way and essentially goes nowhere. They said it's handled in an immature way typical for a lot of anime. I have watched my fair share of those anime to draw my own conclusions from that statement. If that's not true for Dandadan and my interpretion was wrong, then I would be glad. I hope your are right.

Eh it feels like awkward teenager romance that has definite progression to it.
I guess we can stop with the spoilers now (unless you're mentioning stuff that's not in the anime yet). In any case the romance in DDD right now feels quite OK. I like the characters and chemistry between them and I absolutely love the fact that they actually resolve their issues and talk about stuff instead of having this constant and annoying situation where one or both are going off of some misunderstanding and misconception and it just slows everything down unnecessarily because it could be easily resolved if they just talked to each other.

Well, they are angsty teenagers so it's to be expected and as long as it's not overblown, which it isn't imho, then I'm fine with that.
watching: Ashita no Joe (spanish dub): holy shit i cant believe how sad and dark the atmosphere of the anime is. the animation still holds imo i just wish i could watch it with subs. wtf!!! there are 2 different seasons???? it looks like i was watching Ashita no Joe 2??!!! fuuuuck im kind of mad now. i will stop watching it in D+ fuck!
watching but still early to decide: Murai no Koi and Blue box
Fate: Strange Fake is back! My only hope is that it'll be a full series this time and not just one random episode and the next one showing up in 2 years...

Anyways, shoutout the guys who did the ED. The animation is glorious and the music slaps, especially the bass.
I read the manga, and yeah this should have been done over 2 cours. Anime onlys haven't only seen the entire cast yet.
