(K)NoW_NAME Unleashes Non-Credit ED Animation for Dorohedoro

The mysterious man in Caiman's throat and his companions pose in a menacing manner in a scene from the Dorohedoro TV anime ending animation.

 

Dorohedoro, a TV anime based on the anarchic dark fantasy manga by Q Hayashida about a man with a lizard head hunting sorcerers in an effort to regain his human form, has concluded its Japanese TV broadcast, but a true ending is still "not found", because (K)NoW_NAME has released a creditless ending animation for "404", one of the ending themes that the band performs for the show.

 

 

The original Dorohedoro manga was serialized in Shogakukan's Monthly Shōnen Sunday magazine. An English language version of Dorohedoro is also published by Viz Manga, who describe the story of the series as follows:

 

In a city so dismal it's known only as "the Hole," a clan of Sorcerers have been plucking people off the streets to use as guinea pigs for atrocious "experiments" in the black arts. In a dark alley, Nikaido found Caiman, a man with a reptile head and a bad case of amnesia. To undo the spell, they're hunting and killing the Sorcerers in the Hole, hoping that eventually they'll kill the right one. But when En, the head Sorcerer, gets word of a lizard-man slaughtering his people, he sends a crew of "cleaners" into the Hole, igniting a war between two worlds.

 

The "pop" key visual for Dorohedoro, featuring main characters Caiman and Nikaido running amok in The Hole.

 

The Dorohedoro TV anime is directed by Yuichiro Hayashi and features animation production by MAPPA. The series just concluded its broadcast run in Japan on Tokyo MX and other stations, and it will also stream on Netflix in other world markets.
