Shonen's Huge Romance Flaw is Fixed In Jump's Wildest Series, Dandadan
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Dandadan chapter 50!
Aside from the fact that some of the most popular and successful fighting manga completely disregard romance at the detriment of their own series, Shonen Jump's Dandadan continually proves that a perfect blend of both can successfully circumvent the possibility of any lulls between arcs.
Major hitters in the manga industry including One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen neglect romance for a variety of reasons. But, as a result, this limits the full potential of what their characters can attain, no matter how complex their other relations might be. In chapter 50 of Dandadan, mangaka Yukinobu Tatsu continues to explore the budding feelings between Okarun and Momo Ayase after their latest epic adventure and brawl end in the latest chapter of Dandadan, and what transpires from their adorable interaction is enough to carry the series' latest installment despite just lasting for a few panels.

This plotline, while necessary, could have dragged on for obvious reasons, but the romance between Okarun and Momo has been so compelling that not only are the flirtations themselves enough to captivate readers but the prospect of them occurring keeps fans' eyes peeled for any inkling of their feelings bubbling to the surface.
