poemofdevil said: This. One thing that confuses me about some anime fans is that somehow they expect to know everything so early in the series. Not just Dorohedoro, I've seen this sort of complains in other shows too and it's just... weird. Like what else do you even expect out of the show if they reveal everything to you so soon?Just quit the show at this point if you don't have the patience to not have the entire story spelled out to you in 3 episodes. poemofdevil said: Agreed. I've said this in another thread: it feels like people have very limited awareness of genres, it's like they don't know dark comedy is a thing. Dorohedoro is basically like Beetlejuice, celebrating in the macabre and that just because something is dark doesn't mean it has to be gloomy or angsty. And my god, can people stop using edgy as an insult? |

| The chapter with the fight was a bit of a drag to read because of the zombie-killing parts but they actually made it enjoyable here~ This is defunitely one of the episodes that did a really good job on improving on the source material. I hope that it'll continue to improve like this as the series goes on~ I like that there's a new ED now that Nikaido and Kaiman have confronted the En Family. |

| What a fantastic episode and the fight scene was pretty crazy Great |
 |
| This has to be one of the worst anime that I have seen. It's like they were trying to make the edgiest anime possible. Aside from it's art style the most disgusting thing about it is sexism why??!! Watching that lizard being beheaded made me wanna puke just gross. How can anyone like this monstrosity ew. |
| This series has a lot of crazy shit I love it! Kaiman always gives some good jokes and Nikaidou's badass but caring atittud is great. I'm still hoping to see a good fight |

Where ? Also, you really need to work on yourself if something like that episode made you wanna puke Maybe you should have checked the story, the genre and the tags before watching this anime if you're that sensitive and fragile. |

I'm not trying to be rude but honestly, everything about you seems like a big bait. Your taste, forum contributions, your bio and this comment too. Edgy, sexist and shite artstyle? what are you on about mate? |

| The human sorcerers really act like humans, even in Hole. But the manga's depiction will always be better than the anime, that's for sure, but MAPPA's doing a good job despite getting majority of the mangaka's work into adaptation. "The Night of the Living Dead", something like a caricature of Sega's game "House of the Living Dead", and even the depiction of the novel story. Regardless, the human sorcerers and the duo of Nikaido and Caiman are doing their best to evade troiuble. But fate interwines their meeting: the human sorcerers of Noi, Shin, Ebisu and Fujita vs. Nikaido and Caiman. And they're definitely gonna meet again soon, with the only difference that Nikaido is a sorcerer. And if anything, Caiman's other head provides answers, but with it gone, it's shrouded in mystery. Intriguing episode. |

| I'm actually surprised by the amount of hate this show is getting. This is the best CGI I've ever seen in an anime - Ajin compared to this is trash. The gore is beautiful - doesn't censor anything. Comedy is really well placed and adds a wonderful lightheartedness to the brutality of the show. The characters are awesome - this show really feels unique so far 8/10 |

The characters are awesome - this show really feels unique so far 8/10 Kinda off topic but if you're seeking for anime with good CGI, I highly recommand you Houseki no Kuni and Beastars, they were both made by studio Orange and they actually look way better than Dorohedoro, which is already pretty good (edit : noticed you already have Houseki no Kuni in your PTW list, whatever you should give it a try alongside Beastars) |
| Another interesting episode 4/5 This show does a good job portraying it's horror aspect and the mystery moments in this show are actually entertaining The new ending was sooo nice too I'm impressed with this show :) |
| This felt like the best episode so far, the story is starting to make some ground. |
| Whenever Kaiman is standing at the end of that hallway it reminds me of Jin-roh. |
| Besides knowing about Nikaidou being a sorceress, this episode wasn't really that interesting. Wish the zombie night part would have lasted longer tho. |
| What I loved about the manga was its mystery, I loved guessing who was who, why they did the things they did and the overall wackiness and gore. It's not supposed to make sense immediately. Heck, even if you get to the 90th chapter, despite having a lot of things somewhat explained, a lot of it is still pretty vague and I'm okay with that. |
| 臭い- |

Fairy Tail&SAO on favorites. Troll ? + Sexism, the author is a girl :') |
| I don't know if I feel bad or laugh at Ebisu lol, she just has bad luck. This episode was very good except maybe about how Nikaido and Caiman escaped while others do nothing. But I'm glad there is more information about Nikaido. The hospital and alley scene were a bit scary huh. 4/5 |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| The world, the characters and the tone of the series, it's by far the most intriguing anime this season. I'm not entirely sure where this is heading towards to, but that's part of the fun. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Another great episode. This show is 3 for 3 now, its almost too good to be true. |
| Nikaido was amazing once again, I really like her. She's a total babe on top being op. Also wow she's a sorceror too. |
 |
| First episode I felt really sorry for Ebisu but by now I have accepted that only bad things will happen to her. Sorcerers are not feely about what happens to their colleagues at all or at least En and Shin are. Overall really nice episode. The whole zombie situation raised some questions but it was great fun to watch. Regarding Caiman's head I would not call these clues. Things are really vague right now and I enjoy the show for being absurd, macabre and flashy. |
 |
| I am going to continue , lets see what it has to offer. |
“You can always die. It's living that takes real courage." - Himura Kenshin” . |
| Very good episode, I'm glad I stumbled upon this series. Can't wait for the next one. |
 |
| 13:19 "I'M HUNGRY" |
| Damn they picked a hell of a day to go to the Hole. Their reactions to the zombies were priceless. Shin and Noi overpowered them completely. Though I was even more surprised to see Caiman's head regenerate like that. |
| I love how despite the gore and how dark this show can be, they still insert comedy and jokes from time to time and surprisingly it works! |
 |
| I just discovered I have a fetish for tall muscular women Noi is so goddamn hot |
| pretty amazing hell of world is that. Mappa did a amazing job, and the manga/source is great, one of the most original anime in years. I just missed in this episode the manga scene about the wizard's masks being made, it would add a bit to the literally "hellish" worldbuilding of this series. |
 |
| Event with zombie hunting all night long? Now that was unexpected! And I loved it, haha. Scenes with Ebisu were funny. ;P Nikaido was revealed as a sorcerer. I wonder why she stopped being active in the world of sorcerers and decided to start a new life in Hole. New ED is cool, by the way. @Mattinator95, exactly what I thought, haha. I saw it yesterday, but updated my anime list exactly on Halloween. |
| Fun episode again, although the Noi vs Nikaidou fight was a mixed bag for me, could have been paced a lot better and even animated a bit better. Still, interesting to know that Nikaidou was a sorcerer all along and was keeping it hidden from Caiman for his and her sake. Also someone stole Caiman's head that he was trying to dissect to learn any new information about what happened to him. Ebisu is just nonstop trouble. One episode she has the skin of her head torn off, the next she turns into a zombie. Poor girl just has no luck whatsoever and Fujita has to put up with this shit. New ED song is a banger too. (K)NoW_NAME has killed it so far with the opening song and the two great late night bangers for ending songs. Made for the speakers and the theatre setting. |
| Zombie slaying day?!? Strange festivity they have going this episode, but still fits the world and its randomness of weird, gory events perfectly. Didn't expect Nikaido to be a sorcerer, no wonder she's so strong but even more impressive is Caiman regrowing his own head and losing it lol. |
 |
| Another great episode, the action was neat, and I love how a Night of the Living Dead was standard life in the Hole lmao |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Damn, another great episode in my opinion; I gotta say that I really liked the scene with Noi fixing Ebisu's face, reminded me of Attack on Titan a bit; we also got to see the occurrence of the Night of the Living Dead, and then we got to see Shin and Noi meeting Caiman and Nikaido after Caiman and Nikaido were cleaning up the zombies, we also got to see Ebisu getting eaten by a zombie as well; shortly after that, we then got to see Nikaido in action again, but this time it was against Noi, but man, it was brutal seeing Shin cutting of Caiman's while Caiman was biting Shin's head; but it was really interesting to learn that Nikaido was really a sorcerer, I wonder why she decided to stop using her abilities as one, we also saw Caiman's head being given to him by the doctor, and then we also learned about Nikaido finding Kaiman's body in the past when she was cleaning up magic victims as a job; shortly after that, we got to see the dissection of Caiman's head, but then we saw the shadow of the 'You're not the one" person stealing Caiman's brain (at least, I think it's him), I wonder why he decided to do so; and man a new ending theme as well, I really like it! (I wonder why I decided to write an entire paragraph for this!) Anyways, definitely excited to see what's in the next episode! |

| Nikaidou hits kinda different... |
 |
| Man... these women are built differently and I absolutely love them. The mystery behind Caiman's head is still unsolved. But, we're learning new things. The gore and violence are as per usual. Loving this show so much. Also, the soundtrack, the animation, and the new ED are amazing. |
