Review of Dororo
Very well done anime. Interesting story, great character development, cool action scenes and overall enjoyable anime. It's a "remake" of the Osamu Tezuka's Dororo. Haven't seen the original anime nor read the manga, but this anime is fantastic. But not always. The start of the anime is awesome, I was hooked, demon child born without limbs, skin and other body parts. Demons. Ghouls. Blind killer priest. Just awesome. But what started to frustrate me was the fact that the episodes didn't seem like they connected. In one episode they killed this ghoul or demon and were somewhere. Next episode they're somewhere else. The next episode they were againon a totally different place a killed another ghoul.
And so on.
It was enjoyable but didn't hold me so well. But the second half of the anime? Hell yeah!
The second half is more fluent and connected. The episodes pretty much start where the other one ended and they're a bit more enjoyable.
Also flaming horse. Demon eyes. Man eating sharks. Cannibal guy. Just hell yeah.
By this review It migh seem like I didn't enjoy it as much to give it a 9, but this anime evoked some feelings I've never felt before. I've seen many anime, felt many things. But this was a completely new thing.
Just recommend it. Go watch it!
Story 9/10
Art 9/10 A bit different, kind of old school, not really, don't know how to explain it
Sound 9/10 Didn't really like the voice of Hyakkimaru (The first opening is so gooooood)
Characters 10/10 Nice interactions, backstories, good development, empathic actions, likeable main characters Dororo and Hyakkimaru
Enjoyment 8/10 Just because of the bad continuity of some episoded
Overall 9/10
