[Dandadan] Is Aira’s mother Akusara? What does the line in episode 7 of the anime mean?

The popular manga “Dandadan” was adapted into an anime in October 2024.

The popular episode “To a Kind World” was broadcast in Dandadan, and it became a hot topic on social media as it touched people’s hearts.

In episode 7 of the Dandadan anime, “To a Kind World,” what is memorable is Aira’s words to Acrobatic Sarasa (Akusara).

“Mom, I love you, because I was the happiest person in the universe.”

Some of you may have wondered if Akusara was Aira’s mother and what the meaning of these words was.

So, this time we have summarized the following about Aira from Dandadan.

• [Dandadan] Is Aila’s mother Akusara?
• [Dandadan] What is the meaning of Aila’s line in episode 7?

We will be bringing you an article titled, “Is Aila’s mother Akusara? (Dandadan) What is the meaning of the line in episode 7?”

[Dandadan] Is Aila’s mother Akusara?

It is believed that Isla’s mother from Dandadan is not an Akusara.

The reasons why it is believed that Isla’s mother is not an Akusara are as follows.

• Isla and Isla’s mother have pink hair. Akusara has black hair and Akusara’s daughter has brown hair.
• The face of Isla’s mother in the coffin is different to Akusara’s face when she was a mother.
• Isla has a father.
• There is a scene where Isla’s mother is properly cremated.
• It would be too grand to imagine that it was the cremation of Akusara’s mother, who was in trouble with debt collectors.
• When a young Isla calls out to Akusara, mistaking her for her mother, she says “Huh? She’s not her mother.”

So, based on her appearance and the situation, it can be assumed that Dandadan’s Isla’s mother is not an Akusara.

However, there are also reasons why we cannot say for sure that Dandadan’s Isla’s mother is not an Akusara.

Is it possible that Aila’s mother is Akusara?

• The relationship between Aila and Akusara is not clearly depicted.
• Akusara’s daughter’s name is never mentioned in the story.
• Even though she is supposed to be an important daughter to Akusara, she is only called “Aira.”
• The scene where Aila calls Akusara “Mom” is emphasized.

Akusara becomes obsessed with Aila, wanting to make her daughter happy this time, and Aila feels her mother’s love from Akusara as well.

It’s possible that the intention was that there was no need to clarify that Akusara and Aila are not parent and child, given that they care about each other.

[Dandadan] What does Aila’s line in episode 7 of the anime mean?

In episode 7 of the anime “Dandadan,” Isla’s line, “Mom, I love you. You’re the happiest person in the universe,” can be seen as the author giving Akuma a final dose of hope.

This is because the author wants even monsters and demons to have hope in the end.

In an interview with MANTANWEB, author Tatsuyukinobu said the following:

“After all, it would be too sad if there was no hope. Since it’s entertainment, I want to end the story by showing readers something of hope.”

And the main reason why Akusara could not attain nirvana was the despair that she was not able to make her daughter happy.

So the words “I love you, Mom. You were the happiest person in the universe” became a great hope for Akusara, and she was able to disappear.

Why did Aila call her mother in episode 7 of the anime Dandadan?

In episode 7 of Dandadan, when Aila called Akusara “Mom,” it is thought that this is because Akusara’s feelings as a mother resonated with Aila’s feelings for her mother.

Even though they are not actually mother and daughter, why does Aila say to Akusara, “I love you, Mom, because you are the happiest person in the universe”? Here are some possible reasons.

• Akusara’s words about how she wished she had done more for her daughter made Isla see her own mother.
• When Momo connected Akusara’s and Isla’s flames (aura), Isla learned of Akusara’s sad past and her feelings for her daughter, and prayed for Akusara’s eternal bliss.
• Because Dandadan is about supernatural phenomena, Akusara’s daughter temporarily possessed the dying Isla and conveyed to her how happy Isla had been.

Therefore, it can be assumed that when Aila called Akusara “mother” in episode 7 of Dandadan, it was because Akusara’s feelings as a mother resonated with Aila’s feelings for her mother.
