Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan

Bizarre, violent, mostly nonsensical...but incredibly funny. I liked this for the same reason I liked FLCL and Azumanga Daioh. FLCL had a deeper story (yes, there was one...watch it again) and Azumanga Daioh had greater character development, but Dokuro-chan has a charm all it's own...not to mention lots of blood. The parody of the "magical girl" element really adds something. I never cared for those types (Sailor Moon annoys me, no matter what language it's in), but here, it's funny.

The visuals and sound were really well done considering how short the series is, but then, that's just how series like this work. Short, but high-quality ... (well, the good ones, anyway). The premise alone is what got me to watch it and I wasn't disappointed. You have to take this series for what it is: brainless fun.

Look, I really enjoy stuff like Cowboy Bebop, Kanon (2006), and Gundam Wing...but sometimes you just gotta let off some steam. You can't always be serious and this really hit the spot for me. Especially since my last 3 series were Air, Black Lagoon, and Kanon (2006). Talk about heavy...I really needed this!

The first episode alone was almost too much...the appearance of the "monkey" left me almost in tears, I was laughing so hard. I'm sure my neighbors were wondering if I'd cracked! It wasn't some cerebral joke, it was just so completely unexpected, it really caught me off-guard. That, and I happen to find monkeys funny in general. Nothing afterwards hit my funnybone THAT hard, but it was still worthwhile.

Kick back, let go of your rational mind for a bit, and enjoy this blood-soaked comedy for what it is and don't try to analyze it too deeply. It's just plain fun.

"Pipiru piru piru pipiru pi!!!!!!!!" -Dokuro-chan

The majority of Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is very random. Random, and mindless. The characters are decent, the sound is decent, art is good, but there really isn't much of a story. That aside, given that Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is a random, mindless comedy, the story can slide a little.

IMO, if you're looking for random mindless comedy, and don't mind the violence, or lack of a decent story, then Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is perfect for you.

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is one of those absolutely, totally, ridiculously non-sense anime. And this is what makes it really funny as hell.

Sakura-kun is a simple boy who struggles to live a decent life after Dokuro-chan, a crazy clubbing-to-death angel that came and started to live with him, for no apparent reason.

To resume, the story is stupid, as you can see in the synopsis.
The students look totally normal and basic, with the exception of the one turned into a monkey and the teacher, with his weird face and goggles, well in fact most of the adults look disguting, so are Sakura's face in critical situations. Sometimes ... Sakura's mind will be shown with some hilarous metaphors using an adult character, or the angel and devil thing (well, here it's a vulgar Sakura and a graduated Sakura).
Well, the changes in art style are in fact most of the time the reason for the fun in the show.
The opening couldn't fit better, Sae-chan sings as she voices Dokuro-chan. The voices and sounds used during every episode make the show even funnier. The ending is kinda sad compared to the delirious anime, but as it is really relaxing and cool I will forgive Sae-chan because you can't dislike her.

Well, if you want to laugh after a messy day or because you're wanting to forget your hard times, BTDC is ALWAYS a good anime to watch. If you just want to see some funny random anime, no other can be better. If you want to see some serious anime or a great storyline for a funny show, don't even look for it.
And the sequel is even funnier (but two times shorter), be sure to check it out.

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is...well....what can I say? It's absolutely insane and nonsensical. If you are looking for a well written and deep story, then this is the exact opposite of what you want. The story in this anime is pretty much non-existent; A few plot points that seem significant are brought up, but all-together dropped and forgotten in the long run. If you are a fan of random, crazy, immature, and fun humor, then this anime was made for you. For any casual anime fan, it's worth AT LEAST a 'check it out'. Try the first episode, if you are into it, then continue with ... it, because it's comedy is consistent and constant throughout every episode. If you are really into the story, and you like it only for that, then just stop now, because this is very important to know: The plot is just an excuse for more humor, and this is proved, for in the second season, all current plot events from the season 1 finale are dropped and forgotten, and it is back to more random comedy.

In a nutshell: Story is on the back-burner, comedy is prominent. Check it out if you like the sound of this! ^^

Okay ... so ... khm. Trying to write a review for this is like trying to make a soap out of dirt. No, I mean it. This anime is simply hit or fail - whether it's about the taste or about the time you're watching it (meaning your "emotional/mind state".

Story? Ain't nobody got imagination for that.
There's basically no story. Well ... there is ... sort of. Angel comes from a future to kill a guy since he invented a perfect lolicon world in the future where all women stop aging at the age of 12. She can't kill him so she spends her entire ... time with him, trying to stop his studies ---

This is pointless. I fuc***g loved this anime. It's not complex. It's not deep. It's not long - it doesn't try to be anything. It is what it is - a mindless 'let's make morbid things kind of fun' thingy. I really don't want to grade this anime because, by all possible standards, this is absolute zero. Art is crappy, sound (what the heck is that?), the characters are like wtf, omg, ojhaaablaa, story is so complex it gave me diarrhea and so on and so forth.

It's aimed to the specific people and I kind of fit right in there. If you consider obscure torture, mindless murders, flat out retarded "everything" this is your thing. It's funny, it really is, and it doesn't try to be anything more than that.

This show was a 10 while simultaneously being a 4. Add them together and divide by 2 and BAM!!!!!!!!!!!! This show is a 7.

"Better than Ping Pong: The Animation" - 0207xander

If you liked Golden Boy, this is a must-watch. I shamelessly like lowbrow and no fucks given entertainment. I watched this with friends. We all loved the first 3 episodes. The one liners are funny. The show started off strong with yelling "viva libido" and the show thoroughly had my attention from there on out. The horribly out of place baboon head on the student body was hilarious. Then they doubled down on one ... of the best jokes I have seen in quite a while and made a character with a horribly photo shopped dog head.

If you are into parody humor, this show provides plenty. The Bruce Lee scene is great. The Sailor Moon sceptre twirl with the great "Pi piru piru piru pi piru pi" made me smile every time. etc. etc.

The cast was unique. The cast was full characters with little humanity in them. People cannot act like Dokuro. If people thought like her, they would probably be dead. Most characters in other shows are comprised with people with a little bit of character so they stand out a little. None of the people in this show were believable and that is admirable.

I enjoyed this trash. Watch it with friends. The show isn't made to be watched by yourself in a thought-provoking manner so you can inspect the deep intricacies of life. This is ridiculous fun that can be appreciated by most people.

Overall I'd rate this anime with a 9. The art was really good (and cute!), the characters were unique-ish and had their own personalities and the series was very enjoyable! It didn't really have that much of a plot and it was really short, but if you don't mind that (or lots of gore and ecchi moments) then this anime is for you!

I enjoyed this anime because of it's humour. It mostly based it's comedy upon Sakura getting killed every 10 minutes (lots of blood there...) and it's ecchi moments. There are other things that make this anime good, like its originality and ... catchy opening theme, so I'd say that this is a must watch!

I'm sorry if this review wasn't good, It's my first one...

This anime is not supposed to be taken seriously and this is made unambiguously clear from its silly premise and your first 10 seconds of watching this show. That being said if you do decide to go into this anime with the intent of taking it seriously like many of the other reviewers on this site, then you are going to have a bad time.

Now that's out of the way, I would recommend this anime to people who can take a joke, separate fiction from reality and are looking for something fun and brainless to watch.

Story is original for its time, artstyle is good, ... and characters had their own unique charm.

I see that some people find this comedy too graphic and bloody to be funny. Well I must say I laughed a lot watching this show. The premise is that the main character will invent immortality, and women will stop aging at 12 years old. This doesn't sit well with people in the future so they send an angel of death to kill him before he makes his discovery.

The angel is cute and cuddly and has one bad temper. He is killed in just about every way you can imagine. Let's just say the blood flies in this anime. ... But relax she resurrects him and they continue on after he lectures her about her violent ways. I found it funny each time.

All of the characters are funny and likeable. Even with all the bloodshed and carnage the characters aren't malicious or mean spirited. It's just slapstick humor with a bit of violence.

I found it fun to watch and very entertaining. If you don't mind some senseless violence and can laugh at stupid humor then you will enjoy this anime.

Oh, Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan~
This show is stupid. I have to be honest. However, that's what makes this anime so funny. It's dumb, but it doesn't take itself seriously, and the viewer is not really supposed to take it too seriously, either. This is one of those crazy, mindless comedy series that make you laugh and that's it. While it is far from flawlessness, it is pretty good.

Story: 6
There is a story (sort of), but it's very weak and by the end of the series, I really think the writers just dropped the main plot and drifted off into the abyss of no return. Not like ... it mattered much, frankly. The anime is for the most part episodic, each episode having its own plot. Honestly, it's better that way. I don't think the anime would be as hilarious as it is if it actually held on to the 'story' introduced in the first episode. Part of the humor stems from the randomness and sheer ridiculousness of the series. This sort of zany humor is great to some, unfunny to others, so it's not like I will say this series is hilarious to everyone. Most people seem to enjoy this series, so hopefully you will too.

It's also very cute (at first). Don't let the cuteness make you lower your guard, though. It is a black comedy anime, and by black comedy, and I mean VERY dark comedy. Like, gory. The main character gets killed in horrific ways by the eponymous bludgeoning angel about two hundred times throughout this series, and off-screen, like a thousand more times. However, it's not like Elfen Lied kind of gore. I mean, it's so over-the-top and idiotic, it's funny. The creativity in how the main character dies each episode (he is revived) is disturbing. But funny, too. Makes me feel sort of bad for finding it so humorous, but what can you expect from this show?

Art: 9
The art/animation is really good, and very cute. Like I said, the cuteness is only superficial. Anyway, the animation is smooth (sometimes choppy, but mostly good), and the character designs and backgrounds are very well made, especially for an OVA. The animation and art in the more comedic scenes is sometimes so exaggeratedly detailed and wacky, it still makes me laugh to this day.

Sound: 7
The opening and ending themes are nice, and better than lots of other J-Pop anime themes. The opening is bubbly and rather catchy (maybe too catchy), and the lyrics are very suitable for the anime. The ending theme is not as upbeat; actually, it is sort of melancholy, which greatly contrasts with the entire series. The voice cast is great, also. The voice-acting is fitting and well-done, and adds to the comedy. The background music is good, although nothing very memorable.

Character: 5
There is very little character development until the last episode, and even then, it isn't a lot of development. But the point of the series isn't to develop its characters; it's to be so strange and absurd, that it's funny.

Enjoyment: 9
Not everybody will love this anime or find it as hysterical as I did. I laughed so hard, my cheeks hurt. However, everybody has their sense of humor. I find this series, for one, rather funny. No, tremendously funny. That is my sense of humor, though. Some might think my sense of humor is atrocious, while others may agree. All I can say is I enjoyed it for what it is, and didn't try to think of this anime as anything more than it tried to be. It's a comedy anime about killer angels.

Overall: 7
It's a good OVA. Nothing exceptional, except in terms of comedy. I love to watch deep, intense, emotional anime like Kanon 2006, or Elfen Lied, or Clannad, and so on. However, sometimes I want a break. At times I feel stressed and just want to watch something that isn't so complex or thought-provoking. Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan does the trick. It's not much in terms of story, but it lets you sit back and laugh at the absurdity.

"Pipipiru piru pipipiru pi"

*cough*

some words or lines may been stuck in my freaking minds for some reason and still can't get over it.. xD

Story 7/10 + Characters 6/10

Pipiru piru piru pipiru pi! That's so Catchy

Enjoyment 9/10

Totally a worth watch.. Now Get your Butts up already and watch this!! packs with a lot of stupidity, comedy, and FANSERVICES (it's good THO).

Overall 9/10
I know it's very classic so that's why it has a bad quality IMO.. Well Don't mind the Blood in this anime It's just a Parody Don't Take it Seriously..

Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan is a subversion of the "cute magical girl moves in with you" scenario found in 1 of every 3 romantic comedy these days. Instead of a quaint love story is a violent yandere with a spiked bat who repeatedly murders the MC for no good reason. She ruins his life both literally and metaphorically. This joke is funny if you can stomach gore, enjoy absurdist humor and find some delight in watching the complete opposite of a generic fantasy rom com. This joke is unbearable if you don't find the above entertaining - which explains the relatively poor score from the MAL ... community.

Titular character Dokuro is both the greatest and worst character. The anime is only ever interesting when she's involved but for all the wrong reasons, as she has a penchant for causing mass destruction and killing her love interest Sakura after feeling offended or embarrassed. If you find her character cute this can be chalked up to lovable madness.

This is one of the few anime best experienced in English, largely thanks to the tandem of Johnny Yong Bosch and Wendee Lee who do a fantastic job of selling the parodic, self aware nature of the comedy. It shouldn't surprise anyone that the director of this anime later went on to produce Another and Blood-C - two of the most visually disturbing anime in recent memory. Dokuro-chan goes full force with its gore showing chunks of flesh, flying eyeballs, water fountain blood loss, strangled necks, limbs bending in ways not intended...you name it, you will find it here.

Adding to the weird nature of this show is an unbelievably catchy opening theme that will never escape your mind (PiPiruPiruPiruPiPiruPi~). Of course, it is violent with Dokura committing twelve different acts of torture ranging from stabbing to dripping hot candle wax all while grinning in joy.

Facial expressions are the strongest aspect of this anime's art design. The jokes are sold at times entirely by how goofy a face a character will make, going so far as to even show nose hairs protruding from a face. You'd be hard pressed to find an anime with more bizarre reaction faces.

Dokuro-chan is, above all, a self aware comedy that fully understands it's stupidity. One of the greatest qualities a parody can have is the ability to laugh at its own idiocy, and this show does it spades. If you're looking one that's way out there and aren't squeamish, this can be an enjoyable watch for you.

i personally like this show. sue me

this show is very different compared to what i had watched at the time. its got a concept that i had known about for a while. and when it is put into action it actually has next to no grasp on the outcome of the story line. there is a shit ton of episodes that only follow the story in a tiny way. and this is a good thing because this show trips over itself trying to explain it.

this shows best aspect is how crazy and experimental it can get at some points. fro the animation
changing completely ... and it works for the better.

so yeah sue me.

it is not for everyone. and there is quite a bit of fan service but that adds to the comedy.

Hhhmmmm -_- Listen up people, every once in awhile, an anime like this pops up. A short series with no defined plot that has you shooting milk out you nose. This is a good series to watch when you have been given a big let down in some other anime, the huge gore and light humor made of it.
But don't expect this to be like an FLCL short series kind of thing, its not that good. The show seems to skip around in the plot, but who cares. What ever you do, don't take this anime too seriously, just watch and laugh.

This anime is for those people who are looking for a lot of violence, randomness, and comedy overall. The storyline may be a bit shallow, but overall its pretty good. Get ready to LOL at where she stores her phone if you watch this anime.

The first three episodes were not that great, though they weren't bad either. They were very mediocure attempts at comedy, though I did enjoy it quite a lot at certain points.

Fourth episode however, was extremely good. It was pretty emotional, which is not something I expected from this show. It definitely brought the score up a lot. Not quite sure why this show is considered an Ecchi though, as not a lot really happens.

The artstyle was alright, nothing spectacular about it, and pretty ugly at times.

I rather liked the music, the opening to me was amazing and very catchy, I find myself singing it quite ... a lot haha. Sound effects were also very good, and used effectively.

Characters were alright, nothing stood out majorly but they were quite fun for what they were.

Overall, I enjoyed the show quite a lot. Last episode definitely brought the score up a lot. Not something I'd actively jump to rewatch however. If you have spare time, then consider it as this show is quite short and pretty alright.

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is an anime that keeps things simple. Basic plot, basic characters, and a short length. Not necessarily a bad thing.

The story revolves around the titular Dokuro-chan, an angel sent from the future to keep watch over the main character, Sakura, to try and prevent him from developing a device that stops women from having aging effects beyond 12, on account of the fact that in the future Sakura's going to become a nonce, and so Dokuro spends her time making sure to annoy Sakura and make him give her attention so he cannot spend any time developing the aforementioned device.

The show ... has no limitations when it comes to its usage of slapstick comedy. Dokuro is armed with the 'Excalibolg', a magical black bat with spikes that causes anything it hits to explode into a bloody mess, and as a result it looks bloodier than a Tarantino film at any given time. While this humour is rather juvenile, it did catch me off guard a few times, and was a good laugh when it did, albeit humour is ultimately subjective. There are times when the story eventually does branch out involving other characters, but they aren't greatly important, with Sakura and Dokuro always being the main focus. The finale does differ quite a bit from every episode that preceded it, and while it wasn't bad, I believe it should have mirrored the rest of the show and just been something reflective, but I can appreciate that they wished to create a conclusive (or as conclusive as it can get for an 8 episode anime) ending.

As far as parodies go, I'd say Dokuro-Chan's one of the better ones, not too bloated with references as is sometimes the case, and on the whole I rather dislike mahou shoujo, yet I was able to enjoy this, so it's pretty good innit.

When it comes to writing reviews, comedy is probably the most subjective genre because everyone has a different sense of humor. You can be somewhat objective in explaining why a drama (or some other plot-driven genre) is poorly done by pointing out holes in the story or other such contrivances, but with comedy all you can say is "I didn't find it funny because x, y, and z." The thing is, someone else with a different sense of humor may find it to be hilarious precisely because of the aspects you don't like.

I found Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan to be pretty hilarious. The humor is juvenile, ... nonsensical, incredibly stupid, and somewhat repetitive but that's a big part of why I enjoyed it as much as I did. There really isn't much story to speak of other than the fact that it involves a spineless MC and the cute girl with supernatural powers (an angel in this case) who has moved in with him. This is a formula that has been done a thousand times before and since in a lot of ecchi-harem trash anime. If you care about this anime having a story, don't watch it. It's that simple.

The characters are as stupid and random as the show itself, but again, that's what makes it funny for those of us who like it. Dokuro is a cheerful, occasionally ditzy girl who wields a deadly spiked bat and the MC is basically her bitch. This show never takes itself seriously and doesn't try to be witty or clever with its jokes in the slightest. At any moment, Dokuro can bludgeon the MC with her spiked bat and there will be cartoon blood and guts flying everywhere or an angel could lose their halo and get diarrhea. That's the kind of stupid, bizarre, and immature humor you can expect from this show.

Regarding the art, it feels very cheap and of low quality, but that may actually better suit the show's tone than actual high quality art would. It kind of reminds me of how the low quality art in Kill Me Baby, another stupid and random anime I like, actually adds to the stupidity and randomness more than higher quality art would. I don't have much to say about the sound track, but I liked the opening theme and I liked Dokuro-chan's voice.

I'm a grown-ass adult who still enjoys poop jokes, so this anime is clearly for me. However, I can't really recommend it for everyone as it depends on your sense of humor. Definitely DON'T watch for story, character development, or if you expect the jokes to have some kind of wittiness or cleverness. Watch it if you just want to see something flat-out dumb and off-the-wall that will make you ask "What the fuck did I just watch?" The comedy aspect of the anime is really all I've talked about in this review, but if this anime can't make you laugh, I doubt you'll derive much enjoyment from it at all. Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan is far from one of the best things I've watched, but it's a very solid piece of brainless entertainment and for that I'll give it a 6/10.

Are people seriously writing extensive reviews about this series?
This is way too short, even though you didn't like it it won't be as if you lost a lot of time watching it.
I crack in laughter everytime I watch it, it's just plain stupid. Funny as hell.

Story: 7
This kind of anime is more for the fun part and that why is has a short story.
Not do many developments.

Animation: 8
The animation is quite good its well-drawn and has a normal backgrounds like other series.
The only thing that’s a little to much is the blood exploding from the main character when he get beaten to death.

Sound: 9
... I don’t have really a complain about the sound.
It’s at a good level and everything is fun to listen to.
The best part I like about it is the intro.
I normally skip the intro of some series but not this one.

Character: 9
The character a really enjoyable to look a the voice acting a greatly done.
Every voice acting has they own passion of putting there character to live.
And I like it we the talk real fast.

Enjoyment: 9
Enjoyment is one of those things that this serie really has.
And the jokes are something to laugh about but something there a little overreacting.

Overall: 8,4
In overall the serie is fun to watch a characters are putting there all into it.
There is little development and background of them but is this way its easy to follow.
Jokes are fun but sometimes there overreacting it with the blood exploding and shooting 20 meters in the sky.
