Takarajimasha. November 19, 2012. ISBN 978-4-8002-0357-1. ^ Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! 2014 (in Japanese). Takarajimasha. November 20, 2013.And if it weren’t for Biwamaru conveniently saving the day, that would have been the end of Hyakkimaru and Dororo’s adventures.
Similar to MAPPA’s previous production, Banana Fish, Dororo displays egregious actions — like rape and murder — to allow the viewer to sympathize with the characters and better understand their emotional suffering. A wise decision, only if the mistreated characters were fleshed out enough to permit the viewer to actually care about their suffering. Sure. The natural inclination for any sane human is to commiserate with the offended individual, but artistic mediums require a scrupulous approach; otherwise, the desired outcome comes off as cheap window dressing.
Speaking of cheap, Dororo’s animation was rather tacky for a modern anime. It certainly did not offend the eyes, but neither did it generate a distinguished brilliance or captivate the viewer. It, more or less, resembled the unremarkable, ordinary characters with its general lack of lively essence. If Dororo, however, maintained this garden-variety quality for the duration the series, then all would have been well; however, it got worse. Episode 15 was an abomination. Hyakkimaru’s running through the forest looked like an early 90’s Mario game.
