What happened in Dan Da Dan episode 4?
Okarun is finally freed
Momo and Okarun enter the tunnel to exorcise Turbo Granny, but quickly discover that she is too powerful. Momo decides to provoke Grandma into a race, and she does so willingly due to her confidence in her speed. Unfortunately, Momo is quickly captured and when Okarun is about to be attacked next, he cleverly manages to force her back into her body, and Momo stops her from taking control of Okarun. Unfortunately for them both, the real danger comes when the tunnel spirit, a huge crab, comes out and attacks them.
The two run out of the tunnel with the crab close behind, but manage to stay ahead thanks to Okarun’s transformation into his Turbo mode. They run all over town, barely managing to escape the curse, and tricks like boiling the crab to stiffen its muscles and slow it down are only temporary measures. The situation gets worse when the cemetery’s curses lead people to chase the two at Turbo Granny’s request, and the two are trapped.
Due to Momo’s quick thinking, they grab a train and Turbo Granny quickly gives chase and jumps on the train as well. However, this was a trap and the train was leaving the city, where the spirit’s powers are weaker and Seiko, Momo’s grandmother, was waiting at the exit with exorcising spells. The trap worked brilliantly and Turbo Granny was finally exorcised and Okarun was freed from her grasp. The episode ended with Seiko explaining the origins of Turbo Granny and how she provided comfort to the spirits of brutally assaulted and murdered girls.
The main highlight of episode 4 wasn’t the action

Seiko, in a few lines, made Turbo Granny much more than just an evil curseand her empathy with victims of sexual violence made her much more sympathetic and honorable. Also, Momo saying that she would see Okarun the next day was a sweet moment, especially when Okarun’s face lit up as he realized that he and Momo would continue to be friends even after Turbo Granny was exorcised.
Another interesting highlight of this episode was the extension of the scene in which Okarun and Momo escape from the humans possessed by the team. The studio has shown a great desire to improve the source material and remain faithful to it, even in controversial scenes.
