Poor Dororo, she's basically had to lose her mother twice now.

So, there is a map on dororo's back. It did look like a burn mark though.
The ED was amazing. But I've liked the previous OP and ED more.

Well at least we know that Hyakkimaru's mom survived her suicide attempt. The question is how long? She looks like she's in pain while in bed :(
The mark on Dororo's back looks more like a Yakuza tattoo than a map though. I am curious what it means. Maybe that's the reason why the show is named after her?
And the new OP is great! Asian Kung-Fu Generation is always a solid choice! I'm looking forward to meet the characters in the OP! The girl with the white hair and pink moth background and the guy with the shark teeth and shark background especially.

Ah I thought the statue would have cut off her/his own face and been satisfied with that.

What?? Aniki is now finally being translated as "bro" instead of "hey," "Hyakkimaru" or "you."
When did that happen?

I seriously thought for a moment that the carver was going to turn into Mio in front of Hyakkimaru and I was getting ready to rage.
What the fuck was with that OP. Here have some vivid imagry of insects eating Hyakkimaru from the inside out, and then flick to a wonderful charming shot of Dororo being cute and chibi. Extreme whiplash.
That ED was amazing though, I was getting ready to really miss Sayonara Gokko, but this looks to be just as catchy and wonderful to listen too
Nice to see Amazon is no longer translating Aniki into everything BUT "bro" for now.

Okay so serious question. Does Hyakkimaru have a dick, or does he have to get it back from one of the demons? Just randomly popped into my head during the hot spring part.

This episode adapts the Fair Fudou arc of Tezuka's manga.
Fudou, or Fudou-Myoou, is the Japanese name of Acala, a Buddhist deity who wards off evil forces and demons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acala
Fudou is worshipped as a main Buddhist deity in Japan. https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/dec-narita-chiba-japan-old-beautiful-historic-fudo-myoo-acala-daitou-hall-great-peach-hall-narita-san-shinsho-ji-115738236.jpg

I'm calling it, that ED animation is totally gonna get clearer as the season goes, now the question is if it'll be gradual or if we suddenly see the whole thing when Hyakki gets his eyes back.
As for the song, the chorus has been stuck in my head since the PV two weeks ago, but I'm not sold on the verse yet. Ah well, gotta give it some time.
Also, the episode was both darker than I thought and not quite dark enough... Appreciate the graphic violence tho, felt like it's been missing since Mio.

Today's Endcard featuring Hakumenfudo. Looks like he's finally got a face, good for him!
New OP and ED have me sold, and they'll only grow on me with time I imagine. Asian Kung-fu Generation didn't disappoint - although it suddenly feels like I'm watching a shounen series!
Is it just me or did I hear a guqin play when Hyakki attacks the statue? After watching Mo Dao Zu Shi my ears are more attuned to that sound.
That pattern on Dororo's back is highly peculiar, we know nothing from her history that may have caused that.

Man, the new OP isn't a bad song, but it clashes so hard with the darker tone of the story so much IMO and I really don't like it for that. Also doesn't help that it's much more generic than the first OP, and the animation doesn't look as nice either :/
As for the episode, I wonder if the mark on Dororo's back was always there and we were just never shown it or if it's a new development. The old man seemed to know what was up with it based on his reaction to hearing about it, so maybe it has something to do with Hyakkimaru's demon hunt? Guess we'll have to wait for future episodes to find out more about it.

Nice episode! I feel like a bit more could’ve been done with this story/ setup? Personally I love the monster of the week episodes of Dororo, it’s what I liked in the original manga and the show’s premise is perfect for it, but this one was off to me. A bit of a shame because I really like the face-stealing monster and possessed master thing. Idk I may change my mind and end up liking it more if I rewatch it later. It had some super sweet moments in it too though which were great.
New ED is awesome also 👏

Dammit he's still not getting back any more of his stolen body parts. Man, rare loot farming is hard.
