The Anime of a Manga from 50 Years Ago: Dororo | Anime Review

in The Anime Realm3 years ago

Osamu Tezuka's name is one that practically any manga fan should know. If currently anime and manga are among the most popular entertainment media, it is thanks to this man. If the name is not familiar to you, one of his best-known works is Astroboy (1952). The adaptation of it is known as the first anime broadcast in Japan, and its success was so great that it ended up reverberating around the world. Obviously highlighting each of his feats in the middle is something impossible for a single post, but the theme of this introduction is to remember one of his magnificent works: Dororo. It is a manga that was launched in 1967, and could have its adaptation in 1969, making it very popular in its time. After that time, Dororo has only released a video game for Playstation 2 in 2004 and a live-action movie in 2007. More than 50 years passed until the MAPPA studio presented us with a new anime adaptation by director Kazuhiro Furuhashi, who worked with Rurouni Kenshin and Hunter x Hunter.

Dororo was my favorite anime the year it came out. Desptie having a bit of a slump after the second half of the series (The part where Dororo was actually the focus felt a bit weak compared to the main story with Hyakkimaru) it came back with one of the best final fights I can remember seeing in anime in a long time.
