It's also crazy how they're able to make dummy characters similar to the originals. Just crazy. |

| Favorite episode to date, the dead bodies hanging from the ceiling really captured the creepy tone of the show! Really loved it! Kikurage is finally here! So so cute :3 !! Kusakabe also came in this episode, so many new faces I’m happy to see them! So glad that they kept his Tattoos instead of hiding them like in the reference pics we saw. Can’t wait till next week! |

| Turkey's cooking show is cool. Also, the OST during the dinner party fight scene is rad as hell. |

| I am currently reading the manga as im watching these episode. i gotta say i love the manga as well as the anime. the fight scene(Shin and Noi combo) although short was quite something. i like that the antagonists(Shin, Noi, En) are not in anyway bad people, and are more human than Kaiman. The world building is wacky as ever. Now time to go and read whats to come in next ep. |

botomonogatari said: So we are 4 episodes into this adaptation, and I just gotta say something: this isn't the pErfEcT adaptation that I was hoping for, but I cannot deny the amount of passion and respect to the source material I am witnessing. The staff loves this manga and are doing their best to deliver the best they can do, and so far they are doing extraordinarily well. The same three people can shit on the CG and "random" plot every week, and that's sad because they don't see just how difficult adapting this manga is, or how lucky we are to have people that actually give a shit working on it. What a shame, we just accept mediocrity I guess, and hate things that are different :/// Good post. I share a lot of your views. We're very fortunate that such and adaptation even took place and that they manage to get so much right even on a shoestring budget. |

| All of my usual criticism about bad CGI and edginess apply here so I'm not gonna repeat myself😉 The way they made that living doll doesn't make any sense. Not only did they made living doll that looks like that guy but behave like him as well??! And have his memories and on top of that doll was able to find his severed head like How??!!🤨 that's right mAgIC🍌 I like how his hand regenerates instantly when it was nearly completely destroyed and it doesn't even faze him after being struck by such a powerful magic attack, it almost feels like I don't know plot armor🍌 In the last episode the lizardman was able to regenerate his entire head, and this guy was able to survive being stabbed to the heart so it's not like this is anything new, just bs writing as usual uh😒 But but but it's magic it makes sense that it doesn't make sense😮  If magic doesn't have any rules then it's just going to become a lazy plot device at best or Deus ex Machina at worst which is objectively bad writing😉 How can they eat food in a room full of hanging corpses? It's gross🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢 I know that it would completely ruined my appetite at very least😣 I suppose they must have a strong stomachs or something LoL. |

I don't understand how you can criticize edginess when you have Mirai Nikki as one of your favorite animes, and Dorohedoro isn't even edgy, since the show doesn't try to make violence a cool thing, but is using it to surprise viewers And your obsession over magic and how it works is just stupid, calling magic in Dorohedoro stupid is like calling stands in Jojo's or quirks in MHA stupid Every character has their special power, the turkey guy can create living dolls based off real people, the puppy can revive people, Noi can heal wounds, it works just like stands or quirks |

From the story and the world building, there are two worlds and one of those world is full of magic users. Why are you surprised someone uses magic? We are already shown how the En family is one of the strongest clans. |

| Enjoyable episode. Didn't Ebisu know a thing or two about uh lizard magic? What did she do to that guy with the drugs? |
| can dis sig fit |
Xstasy said: The way they made that living doll doesn't make any sense. are you fucking kidding me? isn't it a little obvious that there isn't any rule for the magics at this point? reptil transformation magic, insect magic, mushroom magic, dismemberment magic, why couldn't be a human doll magic? And have his memories and on top of that doll was able to find his severed head like How??!!🤨 that's right mAgIC they don't, they just act like them and tend to go where the original is, like a doppelganger thing I like how his hand regenerates instantly when it was nearly completely destroyed and it doesn't even faze him after being struck by such a powerful magic attack, it almost feels like I don't know plot armor🍌 did you skip the part that they say thats a usual combo used for stronger oponents? and about the instant regeneration, that's the woman magic, we already know about his power when he used it on the pink haired girl In the last episode the lizardman was able to regenerate his entire head, and this guy was able to survive being stabbed to the heart so it's not like this is anything new, just bs writing as usual uh😒 lmao, sorry to say but you're just dumb. looks like you need tons of exposition on the screen to understand anything. he survived the stab to the heart because his partner has healing magic, retard, she just healed him offscreen about the lizard head, they are introducing a plot point in the history. instead of thinking "plot armor", you had to think "why he can do it?" but looks like you're just looking for bad talk the anime. it's exactly like watching shingeki no kyojin 1 season and saying that eren's first transformation was "bs writing", but it turned to be one of your favorite series. i really suggest that you go away of dorohedoro, it isn't for you. it's a manga known for anything but killing characters, he don't need it to be an interesting story. we already have an amazing worldbuilding combined with comedy, mistery and grotesque art |

This is really not the type of show where those criticism would apply, it's not like this series set it self up like hxh where it give you in depth explanation on how magic works and rules. If a character can revive the dead, then that is the case, you don't need to know anything more, It is over the top horror comedy, it's not telling you to take it seriously. Enjoy the wild ride and if you can't then jump off the ride. If the series were to try and correct itself by using your criticism, it wouldn't be the series it is now, basically you want the series to take itself more serious and realistic, but then if it does that it wouldn't be the enjoyable over the top series it is. When a series try to take itself seriously and fall on its head, this is where your criticism would make more sense, but for this situation your criticism fall flat, because the series never once gave you or anyone the impression it is some indepth I intellectual/realistic series in the first place. |
| Maybe it's time to stop taking the bait |
| Pretty awesome 5/5 episode These smoke magic abilities are so interesting |
| Shin and Noi combination is always nice to watch. I don't know why but I found the naked Noi doll creepy. |
 |
| Can't wait to see what wacky fucking bait that guy throws out next week lmao |
| This series is sure out of mind, whatever happens is weird xD. Good episode. |
 |
| The Turkey sorcerer didn't have to look so far to find his name lul An episode focused on the antagonists but they are quite interesting to follow |
 |
| To combat Caiman, the 4-man human sorcerer group expect more seasoned sorcerers (like Turkey) for their magic expertise to take him down. And well...that one manga frame didn't exist to show off the brutality. To make things even more weird, a party for the living and the dead. With the safe obtained from the doll, another sorcerer again who can breath life into corpses through small devils. And thereforth seems like it's another case of derogatory power use, with boss En getting a weird animal as a sorcerer. Meanwhile on the other side, Caiman and Nikaido are doing the same, finding a sorcerer-experimenting doc in a maze of a temple, and spending New Year's affectionately. How will this doctor be able to change their lives? Not a perfect adaptation but still weirdly good. |
 |
| This series is so weird and I really appreciate it since lately many anime adaptions have being lacking creativity. |

You're the exact person I was talking about, and you're literally complaining just for the sake of complaining. You clearly don't have a grasp of how this show works and it's rather annoying. You should also really look up what edgy means, I feel bad bc you have no clue |

| I just love the villains in this. They are one of the most likable villains in anime. I cant really think of funnier and actually good villains. I just love their chemistry together. Ebisu and Fujita are cute together. Of course En and his kitty in the end were funny. After we cut to the main character I was like "who cares about these guys, I want my villains" |

| Ebisu is so cute, its hilarious every time she's on screen. I really liked the characterisation and world development in this episode. |

After we cut to the main character I was like "who cares about these guys, I want my villains" they are not villains, tho. The world of Dorohedoro is a morally grey one. there's not really a set of heroes and villains, more like different groups with different end goals. If anything, they are the antagonists, since they have a goal that goes against our protagonist's goal. But Kaiman and Nikaido are definitely not HEROES in the same way En and his ganag are definitely not VILLAINS. I consider Nikaido and Kaiman as the good guys and Ens gang villains. But the point is that they arra good fucking group |

Whayle said: Maybe it's time to stop taking the bait It's not a bait. Many people genuinely think like this. And honestly I welcome it since it triggers some people which results in tasty replies. |
| Can anyone please tell me what the heck that doll was eating after attacking Ebisu? It looked like a long strip of meat. Did he bite off a chunk of Ebisu's flesh?? Also, do you guys think Ebisu's always been like that or is her state just a result of all she's been through (wacked in the head, face ripped off, zombified, etc)? This episode seemed to indicate the latter. |

This episode seemed to indicate the latter. Someone posted the manga screenshot in this discussion of that Risu puppet scene and it's a lot clearer what it's doing there (It's eating her intestines). They probably didn't wanna show that level of brutality for censoring reasons but hopefully they properly recreate it for the BD. Can't be that hard with CG. And yes, Ebisu is getting more screwy the more she gets fucked with. It's an ongoing joke. |
| Man this show is so weird and crazy but I fucking love it lol. And lol at that same idiot nitpicking over the dumbest shit every week. Imagine complaining about how different types of magic dont make sense in a show like THIS one, not to mention this show also has "Fantasy" in the genre for crying out loud. |

| Yeah.....I'm certainly not reading all that. All I'll say though is that I dont care if someone criticizes or dislikes something I like, just that it feels like the things you're criticizing seem nitpicky. |
