Turbo Granny is a well-known yokai who once resided in a tunnel located in Shono City until her encounter with Momo Ayase and Okarun.
After her powers were sealed inside Okarun and her consciousness was trapped in a plush doll, Turbo Granny struck a deal with Momo to help Okarun recover his kintama in exchange for regaining her powers.
In Dandadan, she initially served as the main antagonist during the Turbo Granny arc but has since become a major supporting character throughout the series.

Appearance
Turbo Granny manifests as a very elderly woman with reddish-brown, wrinkled skin, thick long white hair, wide eyes with yellow sclera, and a sideways gaze. When she possesses her victims, they transform into mirror images of themselves, featuring a large mouth and teeth capable of biting off body parts.
Personality
Turbo Granny is a cruel, sadistic, and extremely foul-mouthed yokai. She is also somewhat vulgar, once offering Okarun to suck her breast in exchange for consuming his family jewels. Boasting impressive running power, Turbo Granny takes great pride in her speed and refuses to be underestimated. When she needs to prove herself, she doesn't hesitate to resort to cunning tactics to achieve her goals, deceiving Okarun and Momo during their game of cat and mouse by counting irregularly. Despite her negative demeanor, she also shows compassion; Seiko stated that Turbo Granny used to approach the spirits of girls who died tragically to comfort them, which is why she merged with the Earthbound Spirit Crab in Shono City.
Background
In modern times, Turbo Granny was a yokai known as the "100 km/h Granny" (100キロババア, 100 Kiro Babā), who terrorized the Japanese people. During her wanderings, Turbo Granny comforted the spirits of young girls who died under horrible circumstances and eventually merged with an earthbound spirit in a tunnel in Shono City. She cursed those who dared to enter her territory by stealing their reproductive organs.
Abilities and Powers
Spiritual Power & Immense Speed: As her name suggests, Turbo Granny possesses incredible speed, allowing her to run at speeds up to 100 km/h (62.1 mph).
Phone Teleportation: She can teleport through phone lines using her speed and understanding of the world's spirals, particularly the spiral-shaped magnetic fields around electric currents.
Spiritual Form: Turbo Granny can dematerialize her physical body into a spiritual form, enabling her to possess her target's body and control their actions. Even in possession, she retains her other powers, including her immense speed.
Curse: She can curse anyone who tries to flee her presence by stealing their genitals. The curse manifests as possession: the victim's body transforms into her image, and their consciousness is overwhelmed by the yokai, leading them to attack others indiscriminately. The curse can only be broken if the afflicted person retrieves their genitals or performs an exorcism on Turbo Granny.
Fusion: Turbo Granny can fuse with any willing spirit, granting her access to their abilities. Depending on the type of spirit she merges with, she can become a formidable yokai.
Luck Inducement: Due to her presence inside a maneki-neko doll, Turbo Granny claims to have acquired the superstitious power of charm, allowing her to confer good fortune to others. However, this ability is random and indiscriminate, meaning it doesn't always favor her or her allies and could inadvertently benefit her enemies.
Territory Control: When fused with the Earthbound Spirit Crab of Shono City, Turbo Granny gained dominance over the territory she resided in. She could alter the environment of any area within Shono City, with the Earthbound Spirit Crab's tunnel being her primary location. For instance, she could summon multiple hands from the ground to capture and imprison her targets. This power made Turbo Granny and the Earthbound Spirit Crab nearly invincible as long as their targets were within Shono City. However, this power was limited to the city, and they lost their advantage once their enemies crossed the city limits.
