Don't Give Up! (あきらめるなよ！ Akirameru na yo!?) is the thirtieth chapter of the Dandadan manga series.
Summary[]
Okarun enters his Turbo Granny form to catch up to Momo and Jiji as the former continues trying to hold onto the running anatomical model with her powers. However, the anatomical model creates some distance between them by running on top of houses. Momo then uses her psychic powers to grab onto Okarun but ends up having herself and Jiji being hurled towards a bus. In the nick of time, Okarun comes in to move them out of the way and have them ride on his back. While riding on him, Momo informs Jiji that the monster that he believes has captured them is actually Okarun transformed, much to his shock. Okarun and Jiji then try to help Momo stop the anatomical doll's while she is still holding onto him. To escape Momo's grasp, the anatomical doll dissembles himself and successfully flees from them. However, after leaving behind his heart, Momo manages to track him down from his screams of pain by causing harm to its heart. Momo, Okarun and Jiji then find the anatomical doll at a junkyard. Momo tells him that they do not wish to harm him and that all she wants is to inspect the golden ball attached to him. The three then hear a female voice coming from the trash calling out for the anatomical doll named Taro. Taro rushes towards the trash to dig out the female anatomical doll named Hana, the person who he was eager to see, and lets out his feelings for her after she tries to have him abandon her. As this is happening, Okarun reflects on how Taro's words to Hana are connected to his relationship with Momo, causing him to blush out of realization that he has feelings for her.
