Dorohedoro
A reptile-headed amnesiac hunting the sorcerer who cursed him gives Dorohedoro a stranger hook than most dark fantasy anime. Netflix and Crunchyroll carry the 2020 TV series, which tells its opening arc across 12 episodes. Each 24-minute episode combines graphic action with comedy that keeps the bleak setting from becoming exhausting. It suits viewers who enjoy horror imagery but want odd friendships to supply genuine warmth. MAPPA's CG-heavy presentation also fits the scuffed texture of the Hole. Start here before moving to the sequel, since this season establishes Kaiman's search.
About
Sorcerers from another dimension use the filthy city called the Hole as a testing ground. One victim, Kaiman, has been left with a reptile's head and no memory of his former life. With help from his gyoza-cooking friend Nikaido, he searches for whoever transformed him. Their investigation relies on a bizarre clue hidden inside Kaiman's mouth, and each sorcerer may bring him nearer to an answer. His blunt hunt soon attracts a sorcerer family he would be wiser to avoid. The mystery stays central, while macabre jokes and affectionate bonds keep the story from sinking into misery.
