Will Dorohedoro Anime Make A Comeback? Delving Into The Series' Future

So, you remember that Dorohedoro anime from 2020, right? It was a pretty cool show, but it never got a second season. Some folks think it might be because it came out during the COVID pandemic and didn't get enough promotion. But the truth is, this anime based on Q Hayashida's awesome manga seems to have faded into obscurity lately.

I mean, it had all the goods - brutal violence, a fascinating world, and that one-of-a-kind main character, Caiman. No wonder people are wondering what happened to it.

It even got some recognition at the Crunchyroll Awards, and if you look at the manga's history, you can tell this series has way more potential than what we saw in the anime. So, yeah, Dorohedoro deserves a second chance, don't you think?

Just a heads up, though: This article contains spoilers for the Dorohedoro anime.

Bad news for Dorohedoro fans

When MAPPA Studio dropped the Dorohedoro anime, fans who saw it generally liked it. But here's the kicker: it came out during the COVID mess, so not many people were watching, and it didn't get much marketing love.

Now, here's the real bummer. The manga, which ran from 2000 to 2018 with a whopping 23 volumes, only got a 12-episode first season of the anime in 2020, plus 6 short ones. And that's it. No news about a second season or a cancellation.

So, where does that leave us? Well, as of now, there's no strong sign that Dorohedoro is making a comeback. The anime industry is all about the numbers, and some argue that this series didn't make a big enough splash to continue. Sorry, folks!

Why Dorohedoro is So Cool

Dorohedoro is awesome because it mixes post-apocalyptic vibes with fantasy. That combo makes the whole anime and manga scene sit up and take notice.

Let's talk about Caiman. He's a dude with a reptile face, but he's got some serious memory issues. He's on a mission to kick sorcerer butt, along with his buddy Nikaido.

This manga doesn't pull punches, though. It serves up violence in hefty doses, but it fits perfectly with the themes and the wild world these characters live in.

Dorohedoro has all these different worlds, and most of them are pretty much the Wild West. That means lots of chaos, blood, and guts. The magic mixed with post-apocalyptic mayhem is what makes this series stand out. No wonder folks were hungry for more in the anime adaptation by MAPPA. There was a whole lot more to explore for those who only knew the anime!

Closing Thoughts on Dorohedoro Anime

Unfortunately, it looks like the Dorohedoro anime won't be coming back anytime soon. MAPPA, the studio behind it, is swamped with other major projects like Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan, Chainsaw Man, Vinland Saga, and a bunch more. With those big hitters on their plate, there's not much space left for Dorohedoro, especially considering it didn't pull in massive viewership. Tough break for the fans.
