@_MushiRock11_ last episode hyakkimaru gained his voice back by defeating the demon but I think it survived because it bit his leg off, this time he killed him and got his leg back. so the demon had his voice at first but traded it with hyakkimarus leg


that's an actual good way to think about it. Trading his leg for his voice and then getting both back when killing the monster

the only thing more depressing than this episode is the fact that this is gonna get overlooked at next years Crunchy Awards cuz the new season of Academia and Titan air this year.

This series deserves to be talked about more

Oh, I'm just having a perfectly normal day.

Here in my room, sitting in bed, eating dinner and watching THIS SERIES RIP MY FUCKING HEART OUT OF MY FUCKING CHEST!!!!

I couldn't bear to see Mio and those kids slaughtered like that. I feel like the way Hyakkimaru got revenge by killing them instantly was not enough, they deserved to be punished severely and not die instantly.

That part where Mio got a few grains of rice or seeds to start their own mini rice paddy broke my fucking cold heart. Why?

Shit, is it possible to love an anime but also hate it at the same time for how emotional certain moments are, because I'm caught in a loop rn.


Yeah, i feel the same! I on-hold this for 2 weeks to subside my feelings through what I saw in Episode 5, and then when I watched it back. I will see this!!! It's so heartbreaking ;( I want to dropped this but I can't ;(

Yeah, I was thinking the same before :/

This episode continues the lonely vibe the show's given me from the start. I kind of expected Hyakkimaru to lose himself and become a demon completely, good to see he didn't in the end though.

It got even darker, and I suppose, it would follow on the same path.
I had my doubts on this massacre all along and was hoping I was wrong, mab, how those Samurai were slicing harmless little kids is beyond me.
The rampage of Hyakkimaru was animated splendidly, granted, I only watched the episode on 360p video quality given how bad my internet was this late at night.

Mio proved that she would go through any lengths to survive and achieve her dream for the children and herself. Dororo had no choice but to respect her decision to continue to work because it was either that or starvation for them like what happened to his mother. It was the cruelest thing ever to have all of that go to the ashes because of those Daigo assholes just when she finally had a means to start pursuing their big dream.

Hyakkimaru might've gotten his leg back, but he had lost the only person who was able to soothe the discord that's been flooding his ears ever since he got them back. He was so furious that he didn't mind the bloodcurdling screams he's been making while he slays those killers and his first word being Mio's name was heartbreaking.

The two of them walking away and the scenery changing to a golden ricefield while Mio's red flower song plays was the tipping point for me. It's just too unfair...

my favourite part was dororo talking about his mom. i already know what happened to her - already watched it - but i guess i've forgotten this dialogue. i actually came to love dororo as a character.
this episode was too sad. i did cry the first time i watched it. but i don't really think the sorry would be this compelling if the end of this episode was different. glad i picked this up.

I'm gonna say it. Mio is a dumb bitch. Don't get me wrong, she's a good person a hero even, doing all those things for the kids. But man is she a dumbass. Of course if you do business with the two warring parties, they'd think you're a spy working for the other. Did she think they won't find out? Now they're all dead. RIP.

Mio's character bio is the love interest yet she dies right away. Guess I need to keep in mind that this is an anime that is cruel and depressing on purpose. Judging by some of the comments, just being dark makes it "brilliant". Seems like the show is just to see how twisted the minds of the creators can be.

Goddamit Dororo, you let the one guy in charge of massacring Mio and the kids get away. How the hell does it make a difference if Hyakkimaru had killed that bastard after he already killed the other ones? Show him the seeds afterwards ffs.

Hyakimarru just left at the worst timing, while Dororo left at the best timing.

Just when Hyakkimaru find a potential soulmate. Really, Mio's life being raped to survive with the orphan children only to be killed at the end, that's just pure tragedy.

This episode kinda reminded me of TG.
He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame.

So it seems like he can regenerate missing limbs just by defeating strong demons now, interesting.

It was a decent episode and kinda sad how the girl and the kids died but I gotta say, this anime has a pretty mediocre soundtrack so far, I'm not feeling anything on the soundtrack, it seems pretty generic to me.

There's another anime that had a similar scene like in this episode but with a much MUCH better soundtrack and that anime is Rurouni Kenshin (AKA: Samurai X), in that one I get teary eyes easily in those type of scenes. My weak point is sad scenes with sad music and Rurouni Kenshin has extremely good music to make those sad scenes shine, this anime does not.

This is a decent anime so far but is losing points on me on the ugly feet, the characters look like they have fucking camel's hooves instead of human feet and is also losing points on the soundtrack, the OST is not that good unfortunately, at least not compared to animes like Rurouni Kenshin, Naruto, Attack on Titan, etc... the OST here is simply too generic for me.

people may not agree with this but for Mio in particular it was the only way for her to go. This was going to eventually catch up too her. I think death was the best thing that could happen. She didnt have anymore obligations and her family is with her

I can't even describe how I feel, this episode left me speechless... Mio and the children were slaughtered, I knew she was gonna die but I didn't expect the soldiers to kill the kids, they are disabled and young, I understand this is war but fk them, heartless beasts, I'm glad Hyakkimaru killed them.

I can't describe how unlucky Hyakkimaru is, the first thing he hears when he regains his ears is Osushi crying, the first thing he says when he regains the ability to speak is screaming, I burst in tears when he said her name Mio, everything is just so painful for him ><



My favorite scene ♥

My rating for this anime till this episode is 9.5/10, I love how Hyakkimaru keeps fighting, I hope he and Dororo both find light by the end of the tunnel because they really deserve it. the story is very amusing and interesting, good for times when you're obligated to stay home because of the coronavirus xDD

LOL Okay, more than getting sad and depressed over this episode I was more like irritated?!
Like DENNNGGG Bruh!!! The regrets and "what ifs"

LIKE BRUH!! Only if Mio didnt work for the two camps,
Only if Hyakkimaru didn't fight the demon so soon,
Only if the priest didnt leave them just yet,

LIKE DENGGGGGgggGgG sa;kjaslkhclascmsakljdoqiwjdqwpd
A lot of shyt could have been avoided!!

Honestly, I was more irritated that Hyakkimaru went to fight the demon first.
If only he stayed in their uhm hide out first then the whole gang wouldnt be slaughtered :((((
He could have defended the whole fam if he was there first.

Now what? He wanted to kill the demon to have a rematch? or so that they could evacuate to that new location but now what? Its useless since the whole fam is ded.

Tbh, I dont find it heartless that Hyakkimaru killed the whole samurai gang who slaughtered children and women :/ I wanted Hyakkimaru to kill the last dude alive too cuz BRUH letting one dude escape means danger and that he would DEFINITELY report back to the village.

Deng if only dororo didnt stop him so soon. I know she didnt want him to turn into a monster but honestly...who wouldnt be angry if someone killed their whole fam?

But deng, made me cry when he uttered her name...Mio.

SADDDddddddDDD and Irritatinggg
