For better or worse, Dorohedoro characters have gone viral for an efficient portrayal of violence and cruelty through their vision of three worlds comprising the dark, the Hole. You may have come across much dark anime on the action and black magic like Akame ga Kill but this anime produced by MAPPA has its own flavor of terror.
It has released its first-ever season on Netflix and the television series is available on the same platform since 13th Jan 2020. Let’s get a brief of the Dorohedoro characters and why you should first know about it before giving it a watch.
Get Introduced to the Dorohedoro Characters!
Dorohedoro is a Japanese animated TV series written and illustrated by Q Hayashida. This anime series portrays a wacky world with abstract Dorohedoro characters including a lizard head man named Kaiman around who the story revolves along with Nikaido.
The virtual dark world is claimed to be ‘The Hole’ where dark magic is practiced upon innocent lives as a part of the sorcerer’s experiments. Kaiman looks ahead in neutralizing his curse accompanied by Nikaido by killing those sorcerers one by one in the hope of accomplishing well one day.
This rampage of the two Dorohedoro characters doesn’t go unnoticed and the greater sorcerer named En realizes their act of slaughter. En thereafter sends his cleaners’ crew after the two to get rid of them.
There is a total of three worlds that are at a clash with each other. One is the sorcerers’ realm, then the devil’s realm, and the third being the human’s realm. The Hole comprising of these three realms is atrociously brutal where poverty and crime is at peak and innocents are used for magical experiments like guinea pigs
The power balance is also disturbed as there is this situation of people with magical power versus the ones without power. The weaker ones are getting tortured and this situation is satirically reflected from our original world.
