Just Who the Heck Is This Person? (こいつは一体何者なんだよ Koitsu wa Ittai Nanimono Nanda yo?) is the seventy-nineth chapter of the Dandadan manga series.
Summary[]
While joining Seiko, the Turbo Granny and Bamora for breakfast, Momo becomes too tired and depressed to eat due to her feelings being toyed with by Reiko Kashima last night. Seiko expected as much from this and explains to Momo that the Slit-Mouthed Woman can use mirrors to peek into people's hearts. Momo is then ordered by Seiko to help Bamora eat properly with her chopsticks but focuses more on having the Turbo Granny identify the orb in Bamora's kaiju suit to determine if it's one of Okarun's kintama. The Turbo Granny tells Momo to put the orb away after identifying the orb as something akin to human karma, which she found hideous to look at. Momo then looks at Bamora in confusion since she is an alien in possession of such an item.
After buying Bamora a new backpack, along with having her switch to a different uniform, Momo walks with her to school and are soon met by Okarun who greets them good morning. Seeing Okarun, Momo shields Bamora from him as to prevent the two from getting close to each other and looks away as she greets him good morning as well. Okarun notices that Momo looks pale and asks her if anything had happened. Momo tells him that it was due to her not getting enough sleep from being targeted by Reiko Kashima. Having brought this up, Okarun is asked by Momo if he visited her last night, to which Okarun answered that he did not. Momo then reacts with frustration and vents it out on Okarun while Bamora tries to hold her back, much to his wonder as to why he was being attacked.
At school, Miko, Muko and Ririna watch as Momo sleeps on her desk and hears her muttering something. Meanwhile, Okarun teaches Bamora how to thank people properly when being given something, which leads to him being complimented by his classmates who crowd around him and Bamora. After noticing Momo, Aira and Jiji standing outside the hall, he and Kinta join up with them behind the school building. Aira then questions Kinta as to why he was part of the meeting after he suggests creating a formal meeting place. Kinta responds back saying that he assumes he is also part of their group too. Momo tells him that she has no problem with him joining but demands that he not make any obscene jokes around her. After disobeying, Momo and Aira kick Kinta out of annoyance. The others then witness Jiji demonstrating his new ability to bend trees after being taught by Seiko how to do so. Though this was all he could do for right now, since he can't use the Evil Eye's powers, Jiji tells Momo and Okarun that he will aim to become stronger to be of use to them, which makes them feel delighted to hear.
After school is over, Momo tells Okarun to walk Bamora home, since she has to go to work, but bluntly orders him not to do anything funny while with her. Okarun tells her that he would never and takes note on how hard she has been acting towards him today. Bamora is also told by Momo to not flirt with Okarun. Before she leaves off, Momo is thanked by Bamora, which causes her to comment on how she is doing well in understanding human language.
Okarun and Bamora join up with Aira and Jiji and informs them that Momo is off to work. Aira and Jiji voice their concern since Reiko Kashima will come after her if she stays past ten. Okarun assures them that Momo will request to be let off at nine to aEmpty Space this but believes that it will be best to go pick her up after he and Jiji determined that the solution was too risky.
After separating from Okarun and Bamora, Aira asks Jiji where Momo works at and becomes shocked to learn that she is working at a maid cafe. Aira then giggles at the idea of dropping in at the maid cafe to tease her. Aira also reacts with shock to learn that Okarun had visited Momo at the maid cafe and had thought that she looked cute. Having heard this, Aira wonders if she should also apply there as well. She then takes offense to Jiji questioning her capabilities to serve customers well.
In a sudden turn of events, both Okarun, Aira and Jiji find themselves in Empty Space being confronted by a band of exosuit aliens.
