Serpo have always been characters of dubious intrigue for viewers of the currently airing popular anime, Dandadan. Right from their introduction in Dandadan The Serpo have attracted fans in the strangest of ways, as their mission to harvest reproductive organs from humans is seen as absurd, but their evolution cannot be ignored.
After their first and failed attempt, Serpo returned again with a new technique known as the Amazing Zone. This zone was invented to hinder their movement and transformation, and it does it well. However, despite its power, this technique is not reliable and has its cracks that could make this technique counterproductive.

Serpo aliens
Beings possessed of reproductive organs
Serpo aliens are male aliens from the planet Serpo. Having only male species, these aliens are incapable of reproduction for the sake of biological evolution on their own and resort to making copies of themselves for efficiency. This flaw in their makeup is something they have recognized and to combat it they have decided to resort to kidnapping people on Earth and stealing their reproductive organs, organs they often call banana organs. In the case of Takakura Ken and his friends, due to their involvement with the supernatural, the yokai, Serpo seems to believe that their organs will be very crucial in their evolution as they manifest abilities that their knowledge of science and technology can. misapprehend.
To this extent, Serpo is trying to forcefully harvest banana organs, and Momo Ayase and her crew seem like ideal targets. Just before they were able to harvest Momoa's organs, she awakened her psychokinetic powers and managed to escape them just in time. This led the Serpos to be wary of her due to the explicit control of her aura when they first met. Most likely because of this, they devised a technique that would be perfect for capturing their targets without engaging them directly in combat, and that is the Awesome Zone.
Amazing zone
Immobility And Suppression Technique
The Amazing Zone is a zone or special space created by Serp where anyone with spiritual abilities would be nearly immobile due to the strong gravity in that space. It can be thought of as a force field where gravity is multiplied. However, it doesn't just immobilize people with spiritual power in that space; it will also cut off any form of spiritual energy so people in that space will not be able to use it.
Also, the higher the number of Serpoians that combine their psychokinesis, the stronger the technique. This was shown in the ninth episode of the series where Takakura and Aira
they were subjected to the effect of the Amazing Zone at the same time as the three Serpoians combined their psychokinesis. This puts them in a more advantageous position regardless of the opponent, as long as there are enough around them to combine their abilities. Although it is a technique with its fair share of advantages, the Awesome Zone also has its disadvantages.
Awesome Zone Restrictions
System still with errors
The main flaw of the Amazing Zone, which even the Serpoians themselves are aware of, is that they cannot enter the Amazing Zone. They have to rely on a third party, usually hired help, to attack the people they are holding captive in the zone. This is why they employed Chiquitita's father to deliver the heavy blows while they used this technique on Takakuru and Aira. Without any other species or equipment to help them attack, they can't do much besides immobilize, so this ability seems like a waste of time and energy in such a scenario.
This technique could also be repelled by those with psychokinetic powers such as Momo Ayase. This was shown when she arrived just in time to repel their psychokinesis with her own, saving her friends and allowing Takakuro to transform and move again. Depending on the opponent they face, numbers can become an issue. Since they require a higher number to take down stronger opponents or multiple opponents at the same time, the technique would be ineffective if their numbers were not enough.
The evolution of the amazing zone
A technique with potential for improvement
Despite the drawbacks it comes with, Awesome Zone is still really powerful and should be able to subdue enemies of considerable strength. However, it can end here. The Serpoians are known for their surprisingly quick evolution and adaptation, as they were able to come up with this solution after just one encounter with Momo Ayase. As they become aware of these shortcomings, they may already be developing the awesome zone into something even more awesome, something that will further limit their disadvantages and give them the upper hand.
It may seem that the psychokinesis they project may be what affects them if they enter the Awesome Zone. If that's the case, they could create something that excludes their kind from the effect of psychokinesis and allows them to move in and out freely. The alternative of hired help is most likely a temporary solution and may not work forever as they tend to mistreat them and make them work beyond their means as seen with Chiquitita's father. They could even create a completely different technique, something that gives a better chance of harvesting the reproductive organs they so desire.
