Dororo Review - Dark Fantasy

in The Anime Realm4 years ago

Anime is conquering the world

Anime series began to spread more than twenty years ago, and the quality of the series in terms of ideas and creativity made the whole world stand in respect of Japan for these huge productions.

But recently and in the last five years, manga series started to conquer the world and spread all over the world, followed by adults and children.

I will review with you in this post, the anime Dororo, but fair, I may not rely on watching a series or movie on a review only because it may not give the series its right, but I will try to convey to you a general impression.

The series, which consists of one season and 24 episodes, won the admiration of many and stole their hearts, reaching a rating of 8.4 / 10 and garnering millions of views.

The story

The story of the series begins with one of the samurai masters Daegu who decided to protect his land, but in a different way, he made an agreement with the demons, but offered them a different sacrifice this time.
He offered them the flesh of his son, his limbs and his skin, but the Shayatim did not rob him of his life.

But fate wills that this child has a great affair. The child named Hyakkimaru is thrown into the river to die after losing his limbs.
But he throws an old man to give him artificial limbs and teach him martial arts.

When Hyakkimaru grows up, he finds something very strange. When he is killed to find the demons, he finds that he has regained his face from here, Hyakkimaru realizes what he must do.
He discovers that he has a special ability, so when he kills the demons, he begins to restore his body little by little and joins him, the child Dororo, that shrewd child.
Dororo is completely different, as he deceives passers-by to earn a living, but joining Hyakkimaru forms a team from them that begins to confront demons and monsters.

Impression

Dororo's manga was published more than 50 years ago in a magazine, and it is one of the works of the genius author Osamu Tezuka who made a great revolution in the world of anime.
You may recognize him from the character Astroboy, the boy, the half-machine, half of humanity, on whom many anime series and films are based, as he is produced by Osamu Tezuka.

The series was produced last year, and has been met with admiration of many.

Although the performance in this series did not meet the big anime like Attack on Titan and others, we owe the genius Osamu Tezuka a new idea that was put forward to the anime world.
Anime movies always constitute a new idea for us, which is what is required for viewers and the base of the pyramid, and then comes creativity in graphics, dialogues and audio.

The truth is that this series fulfilled all these previous factors, even if it did not reach 100%.

Photography

The MAPPA studio added to us creativity and magic touches, which made the series taste and flavor other wonderful drawings, facial expressions and colors.

The director modified the story and added many expressions and dialogues to suit the more mature audience, unlike the original story that was directed to children.

Facial expressions and colors, most of which tended to be dark, added to us special feelings for the series.

In fact, Dororo is a mixture of old creativity, new execution, and a wonderful visualization of great feelings and ideas.

My personal review of the series 9/10

This was my favorite anime to come out the past year. Despite a fairly sluggish second half (IT did pick back up in the last stretch though), I loved just about everything in this show. IT's also the newest anime released that made my Top 10 Anime of all time.

It's a show I feel deserves a lot more attention than it's gotten.

Ya Me too

Back when I had to walk uphill to class both ways in the snow (in college circa 1994) if we wanted to watch the latest anime series we had to make do with 3rd+ generation VHS copies of fansubs.

Agree with that we have to make do more 3rd+ generation VHS copies
