| This was pretty good. Easily the best new show of the season for me. I really wish it gets a second season because there's so many mangas I want to read rn. 7.5/10 |
 |
| This show was great but damn that ending is a slap in the face of any anime only viewer. Calling it an ending is a reach actually. |
 |
| I mean this anime was left pretty open ended unfortunately with no News of a season 2. It was an okay anime overall but I don't think it was anything special. If it had 24 or 52 Episodes I think it could have been something awesome but it was average in the end. 7.7/10 ill give it an 8 on the ranking though. |

| 8/10 Way too much was going on at once. I mean hell they could stretch 12 episode to 24 and the pacing would've still been fast. The 3D models were at first a big turn off but eventually they grew on me. Honestly they may be the best cgi in any anime. Ost is good but extremely distracting. I don't get the high praise for it. Aside from that the anime is extremely gorgeous, creative and full of likeable characters. Too bad it ended so abruptly. |
| At first I was expecting nothing bc of the weird CGI, but this adaptation was amazing! Can't wait for season 2!! |
  |
| Everything's still a mystery. But even mysteries will eventually be over.. Very good adaptation. I really enjoyed it. My (poor) boys, please turn off the light.  |
 |
| I'm so happy Kaiman and Nikaido were reunited in the end <3 I love ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING about this series. I hope they announce a second season, but in the meantime I will get myself to read manga. Some day. pinky promise |
 |
| Here goes my 3rd favorite anime this season ! I had a hard battle in my own brain to decide which one ID:Invaded and Dorohedoro would take that place (this is of course my own & very own scoreboard). But at the end I thought Dorohedoro really managed to create a new world which I really appreciated even if it was absolutely dirty, creepy or gloomy ; it made me think about a Fallout serie's city. The whole story remains a mystery so far but additionnal points apppeared progressively : now I just would like another season to discover more about this well-made and intriguing universe. |
 |
| This left me waiting for more, more and MOOOAAAAAR! |
| With the unpolished cgi and the random plot going in circles, the first three episodes were really off putting. Later on the story kept going on circles but the bits of information given and the characters managed to made it a decent teaser, now I want to read the manga with the expectation of finding a good combo of cool action and dark comedy horror. |
| That ending was just another chapter in the manga, so obvs there wasnt a huge conclusion. Hopefully next season they step up with the CGI. Only watched this series because I love the manga. |
| one word! AWESOME!!!! now I am hoping there will be Season 2..... |
 |
| Nice place to end this season with Kaiman and Nikaidou making a pinky promise. Good adaptation of the manga, they nerfed some gore scenes but it was still great. |
 |
| well nice end..hoping for a second season |
 |
| F i thought there's still 1 more ep. Guess will just continue off in manga Still curious on how/what caiman's character origin gonna be.. Overall this series bring whole another level of weirdness and concepts Characters were great & just fun to watch 9/10 |

| Going through Cross-Eyed Risu's memories before he became Caiman the lizard, just another side story that at best can only be known through the manga. In other cases, the battle of manipulated Nikaido vs. Caiman was amazing. With the release of En's contract from her body, she NOT completely safe from his reach. But to answer who ripped her body off, it isn't Caiman but instead Cross-Eyed Risu. Their backstory with Risu losing his memories and gaining the lizard head instead, eating gyoza and all was (not) how it all started. But with En and his family, Asu doesn't have a choice and butts Caiman and the real Nikaido back to Hole whilst keeping his clone with Chota. What a trickster manipulator. The pinky promise of Caiman and Nikaido definitely have gone through their individual journeys of being human sorcerer and cross-eye, that was the real deal. Awesone OST, and a great adaptation by MAPPA. One of the season's best under Netflix jail. Everything's that's still a mystery...will put henceforth into the manga. |
 |
| Ok. So much clue in this episode. Here's my speculation, I don't know this is a spoiler or not, but I just tag it as spoiler just in case: Damn, can't wait for S2 |
| A pretty good anime this season; by far one of the weirdest storylines on a superficial level, but the thematic concerns and underlying psychology was neatly choreographed and well-written, particularly the character-centric elements. 7/10 |

Ketrod said: Draculoid said: (it was already the number 1 airing show in Japan during it's run so that's fantastic news on that front ) According to this site which gathers data of Japanese TV ratings: https://www.anikore.jp/chronicle/2020/winter/ac:tv/ it ended at #3, still pretty good of course. Maybe it depends on the manga's popularity as well, don't know, not really sure what exactly determines when an anime gets another season or not. Dorohedoro is considered a cult classic manga in japan, so the chances of it getting a second season is pretty likely! Hopefully there are no production hiccups that stop it from happening. |

| This felt very incomplete. I kind of want to give it 6/10 out of anger, but I did enjoy the story a lot, so I won't. I really hope we get another season. |
| I didn't like this at first and story was so random at times but more I watch more I like the characters and it seems unique, crazy but overall a fun show and that's what its charm is I guess so overall 7/10 Pretty good end I am thinking to read the manga :) |

Everything will be clear later |
| This series is pretty good, I'm glad I decided to watch it despite everything. I hope there will be a second season. |
 |
| I like the animation, remind me of Akira. However the plot was a bit bizarre and got me by only a thread. It was different which is good, but the humor was mostly a miss and the whole Deamon, wizards and humans were off to. I think better world building was required. Still something to appreciate on a bench |
| "Miharu denki desu" |
| A great series that I hope gets a sequel in the future |
 |
| Maybe the best show of the season, but it was also a weak season. Music was top, animation was mediocre, comedy was ok. Characters and story were interesting. Only the narrative, especially in the first half of the season, was unfocused (i.e. ep1, 3 and 7). Episodes 1 to 7: 6/10 Episodes 8 to 12: 8/10 Overall: 7/10 |

| I had never heard of the manga before this anime, and that makes me kinda sad, since I REALLY liked this anime, and I kinda wish I had known about the manga before! And yes, this anime was amazing! I seriously SERIOUSLY hope a second season gets made! But if it doesn't, I'll probably just read the manga. 10/10 |
| I was never a fan of the "brainwashed character" element in narrative so I'm glad it didn't last long here and Nikaidou managed to remember who she was in the end. That pinkie promise sure was adorable, by the way. Well, it took some time and a few episodes for me to feel interested enough in both story and characters but I have to admit it, this peculiar show ended up being a quite enjoyable experience overall. Mostly due to its dark humor, which I absolutely loved and charismatic cast. On a negative note, story progression was indeed a bit messy for moments and I also would have liked them to explain the deal with the devils in this world but in the end, these aspects didn't affect my general enjoyment all that much. 7/10 - A possible second season would be quite welcome but for now, all I can do is wait for the OVAs. |
| Simply, Anime of the season. |
 |
| Dorobedoro: The Prologue. Still, was consistently entertaining. 7/10 |
pureguava said: Your quite close but your missing a couple of two key details but in other areas you are surprisingly accurate. Hell yea. Thanks for confirming without spoiling things out. |
| Easily the best anime of the season. Desperately needs a second season. The story was really immersive and I've never felt bored when I was watching it. Its absurdly casual violence and bizzare sense of humour got me pretty good. Also CGI was really well made. I did't even realize it was cg most of the time. It was that natural. 9/10 |
| Honestly, I really liked the short-haired look on Nikaido. It just looked good. Then again, maybe I'm just biased towards short hair. And again, Asu being such a demon bro. I wonder how many of those kinds of demons there are? Probably not many. Still, this series is just so fascinating. Twelve episodes just went by like nothing. It's certainly my fav of the season. Although, I had to ditch a few series since I didn't put enough time into watching them. Then a blushing Caiman; how cute. The only way season two (hopefully will be one) is more Noi and Shin. |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
