Aliens (宇宙人 Uchūjin?) is a term that refers to the various extraterrestrial beings existing in outer space (excluding humans inhabiting the planet Earth). It is also a classification for beings who have entered a foreign planet. According to Rokuro Serpo, there are approximately 666 known alien species within the galactic system.
They act as one of the central antagonists in Dandadan, along with yokai.
Overview[]
While the various races of aliens within the galactic system have made themselves known amongst each other, humanity remains the only known species who are foreign to their existence, with only a few humans who believe that they are real based off a series of conspiracy theories. Two reasons for this are the occurrences of Empty Space, a dimension casted by aliens that conceals their activity to humans, with the exception of those who are spiritually aware, and aliens choosing to keep extra-terrestrial life a secret by blending in with their kind using disguises.
Aliens are technologically more advanced than what humans are capable of achieving, such as possessing spaceships, teleportation devices, and nanoskin.

Theories[]
Knowing that they possess highly advanced science and technology, humans have questioned as to why aliens haven't taken the opportunity to invade Earth. Upon his confrontation with the Serpo, who targeted him for his yokai powers, Okarun theorized that aliens are unable to commence an invasion due to the existence of the yokai all over the world who have powers that surpass their science and technology. Since this is supposedly the case, Okarun also believes that aliens seek to capture humans who somehow came in possession of yokai powers and study them to develop the science needed to combat against the yokai themselves.
