"Dorohedoro Season 2" Project Information
Introduction
Welcome back to the chaos.
Caiman is a man with a lizard for a head and a massive case of amnesia, all thanks to a Mage's curse.
In a quest to recover his real face and lost memories, he and his best friend Nikaido hunt Mages in the gritty sprawl of the Hole, searching for the one who did this to him.
Just who—or what—is he really?
The original "Dorohedoro" manga by Orb Hayashida was a cult classic that ran for 18 years starting in 2000, spanning 23 volumes of gore, gyoza, and grit. Long considered "unadaptable" due to its unique, hyper-detailed art style and surreal world-building, it finally exploded onto TV screens in 2020. Now, the long-awaited sequel that "Doroheads" worldwide have been begging for is finally here as a new streaming series!
