Momo & Okarun Secretly Hold Hands... Fans Go Wild Over the Romantic Comedy Vibes and Say, "Just Interlace Your Fingers Already" – Episode 17 of "DANDADAN" Anime

The 17th episode of the anime "DANDADAN" began airing sequentially from July 31. In a scene where Momo Ayase (voiced by Shion Wakayama) and Ken "Okarun" Takakura (voiced by Natsuki Hanae) secretly place their hands together in a car, fans' hearts melted, reacting with comments like "Oh my, oh my, oh my?" and "Just interlace your fingers already."

In Episode 17, titled "Everyone's Having a Sleepover," there's a moment during a group car ride when Momo's finger brushes against Okarun's hand as they sit side by side in the backseat. When a bashful Okarun pulls his hand away, Momo cheerfully tells him, "It's fine, really. You're being way too considerate."

When Okarun places his hand between them again, Momo is now intentionally the one to touch his hand. She goes further, caressing his finger and placing her own hand fully over his... Unable to resist any longer, Okarun nervously asks, "Uh... Ayase-san, what are you doing?" Momo simply feigns innocence, replying, "Huh? Nothing, I'm not doing anything," in a nonchalant manner.

Viewers were captivated by the two flirting in secret, with comments such as "Oh my, oh my, oh my?" "This is a full-on rom-com... those hand movements... so nice," "Just interlace your fingers already," and "Flirting in such a tiny space..." flooding in as their hearts fluttered.
