| ^ That ^ would have been so much better. It seems like it just got axed. |
| Overall, this was an enjoyable read. The first half was great, but the second half started to lack in writing quality and there were a couple chapters that felt unnecessary. It picked back up the last couple chapters, but the ending felt so abrupt. Hyakkimaru doesn't even finish his mission and in the end, he just let's his father walk away. That felt a bit cheap. Hyakkimaru and Dororo splitting up felt unnecessary too because Hyakkimaru has tried to do this a few times and Dororo never allowed it, but this time it's ok? I wish they would have stayed together. If the manga had another 5 chapters to tie up everything, it would have been more satisfying. I give it a 7/10. |
| I really really enjoyed this. Huge shame that clearly Tezuka ran out of ideas and/or ran out of motivation for it, because if it had kept going and had a proper, satisfying ending it'd be a full masterpiece. Still happy with what we got, and very excited to go through the whole franchise now - the 60s anime, the PS2 game, the 2019 anime and the still ongoing new manga. |
| worst piece of fiction ever written |
| Tezuka being told to cancel the series is surely wild, those editors were very bold :D Luckily he came back later. I wish the series was a bit more diverse/less formulaic, but the themes and stories were good, and there're seeds of his future works there too (like the demon horse). The wandering monk reminded me of (Zato)ichi. ananizkim said: Here is a little trivia about the originally planned ending of the manga; "There was originally going to be a different ending, where Hyakkimaru finds out in order to get his final body part back, he would have to kill Dororo, but he finds himself unable to do it. It is unknown why this was scrapped, but it was later reworked into the conclusion of the PlayStation 2 game, Blood Will Tell." where did this info come from? |
| Comparing this with the 2019 anime, I enjoyed this a lot more, except for the ending which was way too abrupt. Still, kinda enjoyable. |
| Just like the guy above I liked this more than the 2019 anime. The ending could've been more fleshed out, but still I like it as it is. Great manga. |
| I don't like either the anime or manga, so I prefer the manga because it's shorter. |
