Seance Sisters
Momo's grandmother left her with a legacy of love and loss, but the path she must walk is her own.
via Wikipedia: Séance · see source
Momo Ayase's grandmother was a pivotal mentor figure in Dandadan, having guided Momo in her early development of genuine mediumship before her death. Unlike the fraudulent psychics often encountered in the series, she possessed real spiritual abilities that helped bridge the gap between the living and the dead. Though she is no longer alive in the present timeline, her past teachings and legacy continue to influence Momo's journey.

Lore & Background
Her dynamic with Momo is defined by the foundation of knowledge and trust she established before her death, helping the young medium understand that her powers are not just for combat but also for connection. However, Momo develops her abilities through experience rather than direct instruction from her deceased relative. The grandmother does not teach Momo to navigate the spiritual realm safely or distinguish threats in the present narrative; Momo's growth comes from her own encounters and the lingering lessons of her past.
Reader's Guide
The Seance Sisters function as a specialized faction of spiritual enforcers who believe that the living are overburdened by unresolved spirits. Their primary goal is to forcibly exorcise or bind these entities, often disregarding the safety or consent of the people involved. Their membership consists solely of the two sisters, whose names and individual backstories remain somewhat shrouded in mystery until their full confrontation with Momo. They rely on a symbiotic relationship where their combined psychic energy amplifies their mediumistic capabilities far beyond that of a single practitioner. In the broader conflict of Dandadan, they serve as a bridge between the alien arc and the ghost arc, proving that both threats are equally dangerous. Their defeat by Momo marks a turning point where the protagonist fully embraces her spiritual heritage to combat supernatural evils.
