| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Haha, this episode is ridiculous but really entertaining. We got baseball uniforms with Kaiman as catcher, Nikadio as pitcher, etc. I have to say, this is one hell of a team they assembled with characters of all backgrounds. The Worms are awesome. |
 |
| Awesome! Episode as always 8/10 |

jerryjoonie said: Maybe I missed it, but in manga there was a scene before baseball game, with Fujita and Ebisu. Fuji said he was gonna kill Kaiman and Ebisu told him he'd die. Then he says: "Nobody cares" and Ebisu just: "I do". "Because otherwise how can I go home?" lmao. But their relationship is sincere. This scene + when she jumps with him into Hole. Good friends (if Ebisu wasn't a minor, it could even be seen as love relationship) Yeah I'm extremely disappointed that they skipped that scene  |

| I haven't seen the episode yet (waiting for subs), but Chota is in it already!? Oh hell yeah :D I had been expecting him to appear next week. That's my favorite character in all of Dorohedoro. God, I can't wait. |

| really entertaining episode. It was over before i knew it. atleast we now know who cast magic on caiman. The animation feels like it has improved this ep or maybe they have learned how to use CGI to their advantage. was expecting a new ED but this is fine as well. i laugh everytime i see johnson on screen. |
| Send me Friend requests!!!! |
| I don't like how they are not revealing much of anything about Caiman. However, I absolutely love this disastrous episode. The magic removing guy just casually cut off Shin's internal organ, and there was no reaction. That's so stupid that I absolutely love it. Ebisu destroyed Matsumura. hahaha When Noi and Shin were destroying each other, the boss just looked at them with little to no interest. The first time I'd seen Dorohedoro's art, I thought this would be a dark and gloomy story. Well, it's dark, but definitely not gloomy! |
| I still don't understand what's going on in this show. Do I need to read the manga to fully comprehend or is it just a mess of a show? |
| I'm repeating myself but i can't stress it enough. This would've been a 10/10 anime if it weren't for that unncessary fast pacing. So many things are going on in a short amount of time. It is questionable at this point. Sure for the sake of having 12 episodes this is to be expected but there are plenty of first season animes which do a way better job of it. Also they cut out this scene: https://imgur.com/a/nEJlFdX |
| Nice episode all the way ... hmmm so Ebisu was the one...so who is Caimon anyway |
 |
| Good episode, the baseball match was fun to see |

Not every detail is meant to be lingered on and followed with extensive monologues explaining every single little detail. I guess you are the special type. Honestly If the pacing was a little bit slower I gurantee the score of this show wouldn't be lower than 8. Also being too faithful to the source material isn't necessary a good thing sinceTV shows work completely different from comic/mangas. |
| YES! The baseball chapter. It's so incredibly random but so much fun and I loved seeing some of this madness animated (Johnson stealing base had me in stitches!) jerryjoonie said: Maybe I missed it, but in manga there was a scene before baseball game, with Fujita and Ebisu.

This scene + when she jumps with him into Hole. Good friends (if Ebisu wasn't a minor, it could even be seen as love relationship) Yeah, I cannot believe they cut that. Such a sweet little snippet.

I remember a quote from the mangaka (don't know how legit it is) that fits describing Dorohedoro perfectly "A song with really dark lyrics, but a melody that's so happy that you want to dance to it” |

STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| We already know Dorohedoro is weird but when I saw they were going to play baseball I thought "How weird can a baseball match be" and boy..... From that giant bug to a Frankenstein that goes crazy if it doesn't get charged for 30 mins to corpses hanging around as prop And to think that Ebisu was the one who cursed Caiman... Man what the actual fuk? I LOVE this anime |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Yup, still a great adaptation with top notch sense of progression per episode. I also noticed they cut that cute scene, but it wasn't a big deal and it could even easily get inserted later anyway. 4,5/5 |
 |
| Thirteen is a nice guy, but Nikaido Kaiman's woman forever. She belongs to Kaiman just like En belongs to Chota ;) Damn all scenes with Jonson in this episode were even better than in the manga, I laughed so hard |

| This episode was really good, I never thought i would see Jonson again. |
 |
| that episode was absolute lunacy and it was brilliant. Show gets better every week |

phantomfandom said: It's nice to play with violence when death is easily reversible in this setting. And this is why I can watch this show despite I don't like seeing character die. I know that magic users can be revived so I'm wondering if human can be revived too? finished the manga a year ago. from what i remembered, Kikurage (En's devil cat?) can revive a person with a devil tumor (those tiny devils inside in your head) and it only exist on magic users. so my guess is humans can't be revived. |
 |
| In episode 2, En already mentioned, that Ebisu uses Lizard magic. But I forgot about that until now. So she was "the one" after all, huh. A lot of pairings in this episode. The Sharks and Worms Caiman and Nikaidou as the battery on the field. Caiman knows her so well. Shin and Noi, fighting and then sharing a moment. Fujita and his former partner, then Fujita and Ebisu had a moment. And last but also least, En and that Bird guy, with the one-sided admiration. Teamwork makes the dream work. |
| I'm no manga reader and this could end up being true but why is everyone saying Ebisu is the one lol???? Did you forget that in this very episode we learned that magic smoke can be sold and used by other people and it already happened to Noi. So even if it is really Ebisu's magic, I doubt she is the who used it. They didn't even let the man inside the head finish the sentence. They probably just left "you are" and cut the "not the one" part to mislead people (For manga readers please don't confirm it) |

| Did this episode offer anything new to the main storyline? Barely, just the last two or three minutes. Did it was my favorite episode so far? Absolutely. Gotta love how random a baseball match sounds at this point in the series. |
SouthRzVa said: Did this episode offer anything new to the main storyline? Barely, just the last two or three minutes. Did it was my favorite episode so far? Absolutely. Gotta love how random a baseball match sounds at this point in the series. Well it also introduce new characters that could potentially have a big role on the store later |
| Now that is the type of baseball match I would pay to see. Ebisu rockin the place in her sharksu outfit and even Jonson got to see some action. The animation was either really good or really bad this time around. last episodes there was more of a middle ground. |
 |
| En is one step closer to figuring out more of Ebisu through the smoke that Nikaido sold before...and Fujita is taken in for the ride, once again into Hole...for a baseball match. One weird proposition to this world is baseball, and I've gotta say, in such a dystopian world that can happen with just about anything, anything goes. Nice to see Jonson again. Never have I been so excited watching a baseball match like this, it was full pure adrenaline. But Noi getting caught in Ebisu's smoke doesn't do any favours as he transforms to a Caiman-like creature, and Shin luckily escapes from the clutches. On the other side, Matsumura's rampage, Ebisu's temporary memory recollection and such...who is the man in Caiman's mouth? |
 |
| Ebisu, my girl was so freaking adorable in this episode with her shark costume and dance. Gonna be that annoying shipper that ships her hard with Fujita. They are too freaking cute together, ngl. I'm sure there are those who ship Nikaido with Kaiman and Shin with Noi but this is my OTP. Jonson was also pretty funny in this episode. He's always so sweet and funny in the manga. Chota, it's more of a love hate relationship with him. Also that ending with Ebisu transforming was fucking awesome! |
| 臭い- |
| The animation for the Shin vs Noi fight blew me away! MAPPA has so many talented people working on this! |
