Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan
Synopsis:
Angels are genteel and graceful messengers from Heaven, right? Wrong! Sakura Kusakabe will create an invention that inadvertently ruins the future for womankind and thus, angels from the future have arrived to do the only reasonable thing: assassinate him! Fortunately for Sakura, one of them, Dokuro-chan, takes a liking to him but her intentions to protect him prove downright lethal. When Sakura’s not dodging her spiked bat Excalibolg, he’s fighting for his life on river escapades. And when he’s not quick enough, Dokuro-chan’s catchy incantation brings him back to life! Bludgeoning and blood splatters aside, can Dokuro-chan save the one she loves without damaging the future?

add recBoth animes are pseudo magical girl. When I watched Dai Mahou Touge, I immediately thought of Bokusatsu Dokuro-chan. They are parodies of mahou shoujo anime, in that they utilize an excess amount of violence and blood (ESPECIALLY in Bokusatsu Dokuro-chan), and they make the hilarious grotesque faces. If you found Bokusatsu Dokuro-chan funny, you'll think Dai Mahou Touge is even more fun.
Bouth series can be sayd to be parody of many classic animes. When Dokuro swings hers big club arond Punie from Da imahou Touge uses her submission moves, and in bouht cases bes way to describe it is just "ower kill"
Both shows are equally vicious parodies of popular anime genres: BokuTen - of "magical girlfriend" genre, and DMT - of "magical girl". If you enjoyed the viciousness and genre savviness of one, you'll certainly enjoy the other. That both have been produced essentially by the same creative minds doesn't help...
Love Dokuro-chan's combination of cuteness and black humour? Or did you merely love the idea and find the series proper to be rather disappointing?
If yes is the answer to either of those questions, it's quite possible you'll love Dai Mahou Touge - another cutely twisted series from the same people behind Dokuro-chan. I personally found this series superior in every way.
Both OVA are parodies of everything that's cliché in anime, starting from the magical-girl and sudden-girlfriend genres. While Dokuro-chan is definitely the most violent and ecchi of the two, Dai Mahou Touge is a lot crueler, and way more vicious.
While I'm of the opinion that DMT is the better one of the two, I did enjoy enjoy both of them equally. Make sure you watch both of them!
Magical girls with a bit of the old ultraviolence. Dokuro-chan is a gorefountain extravaganza, while Dai Mahou Touge leans a bit more towards being creepy and bleak (with some surprisingly good fight scenes). "Pipiru piru piru pipiru pi" or "Lyrical Tokarev, kill them all!", either way, someone's either dead or will wish they were soon.
If you liked Dokuro-chan you won't be dissapointed with Dai Mahou Touge. They are very similar in style and they have basically the same type of comedy, with dokuro-chan being more on the gory side. All in all, if you liked one you'll like the other.
Elfen Lied
- TV (13 eps)
- 2004
For Kouta and Yuka, finding the bloody naked young girl on the beach would change their lives forever, for better or for worse. Unable to speak or function as a normal human being, she is named Nyuu by the duo, and taken into their home in an effort to save her. But what neither teenager knows is that this innocent young girl is actually a killing machine -- an experiment gone terribly wrong -- and it is only a matter of time before the murderer in her awakens again...

add recI don't know about anyone else, but a large part of my enjoyment of Elfen Lied was derived from unintentional humor. I suppose it's possible to take Elfen Lied completely seriously, but the series goes so over the top that I'm pretty sure everyone cracks up a little. On the other hand, Dokuro-chan is fully aware that its gore is funny, and uses it to generate some of its biggest laughs.
In any case, feel free to ignore this recommendation if you thought that Elfen Lied was a serious drama piece (haha what?), or if you thought Dokuro-chan was stupid and tasteless. However, if you think gore can be funny, the enjoyment you got from one should easily transfer over to the other... you sick bastard.
Like blood? Gore? Naked chicks? Both Dokuro-chan and Elfen Lied are jam-packed with them. Each has many unexpected events that leave you craving more.
If you think gore is funny then these two anime might just become your favorite anime ever! Dokuro-Chan is a bit more blatantly comical with its violence than Elfen Lied, but you will laugh during either. Also nudity never hurts when it comes to comedy... Not to mention they both have amazing theme songs! ^_^
Unlike Dokuro-chan, Elfen lied is emotionally scarring... I have yet to recover from the trauma induced by the true horror of Elfen Lied. *excessive sobbing* :_(
Elfen Lied and Dokuro-chan have characters who love to kill but you can't blame them, because they are cute and just looking for their true love! Any man on Earth would love to be killed by Dokuro-chan; after all, she has magic skills and she can resurrect you! But to get killed by Lucy (in Elfen Lied) is a bit of a problem, due to the fact that afterwards you wont be able to put your head back in place (just pray that she gets her head bumped first to make her second cute personality appear).
If the blood in this wasn't enough for you, it's time to get real and watch Elfen Lied. Normally I don't like the 'bloody' type anime, but in this it works, the story is gripping and by the end of the series you'll wish there were more episodes.
Lucy has a reason for killing humans, and by the end you understand why (and maybe even feel sorry for her)
Both anime got ecchi and lots of gore so if you like when people get splattred all over the place theese are the anime for you.
Lucy and Dokuro chan also have a similarity, they both lite killing people (often accidently)
Excel Saga
Alt titles: Heppoko Jikken Animation Excel Saga
F City, F Prefecture: the battleground where good and evil have finally chosen to decide once and for all who will rule the world…or at least that's the general idea! Neither side seems up for the task, as surviving the brutality of everyday life is enough of a chore. On the side of evil is the organization of Across, its only member the loudmouthed and abrasive Excel who struggles just to put food in her stomach; on the side of good, three disenfranchised, unemployed bachelors whose only pursuit in life is romance. Add in alien invasions, jungle warfare, and Mexican immigrant laborers to Japan, and this war doesn't seem likely to be ending soon!

add recOverly violent, absolutely inexplicable, and occasionally perverse humor? Sign me up!
Not everyone is going to appreciate the borderline psychopathic humor of Excel Saga and Dokuro-chan, but those that do should enjoy both in equal measure.
Excel Saga and Dokuro-chan are both hyper and violent to the extent that they become hilarious in a strange kind of way.
Excel Saga is just as crazy if not more than Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan, and both have more or less the same wicked and bloody humour that makes them so great and fun to watch.
If you liked Dokuro-chans way of handling things you will surely like the way the boss in Excel Saga handle things ^^ Along with that the poor girl in the lead role is just as unlucky as Sakura in Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan.
Whacky comedy in which a hyper female lead brings constant chaos to each and every frame: the description fits Excel Saga as well as Bokusatsu Tenshi. Both are very colourful, loud productions in which characters die and are brought back to life, repeatedly, even. The humour in both relies on shoutouts to other anime and popular culture in general and they have the same feeling of plot-less over the top fun aimed at a more mature audience.
Fast-paced and spastic comedy with a where chaos is sure to ensue! The same way as Dokuro-chan, Excel Saga is driven by an obnoxious and strongly abusive female lead with less logic than a tea pot, while not sparing any joke, blood, human lives or the viewer's last bits of sanity. If you're looking for something completely outrageous, go for Excel Saga.
FLCL
Alt titles: Furi Kuri
Naota Nanbada is a boring young boy who leads a boring life in a boring town. His older brother has left for America, and the closest he comes to any excitement is when his deadbeat dad has too much sake. But things change one day when a bizarre girl zooms up to him on a scooter and smacks him in the face with her guitar. What's more, once Naoto returns home he discovers that this strange woman has arrived ahead of him and moved in! Not only does she constantly engage in perverted activities with Naota's father and flirt with the young man himself, but she also claims to be an alien who is searching for the ‘Pirate King.' Now, Naota must learn to live with this new intruder, deal with an odd government agent who sports exceptionally large eyebrows and the mysterious Medical Mechanica, and come to terms with the fact that there are a variety of robots and weapons emerging out of his head - amongst other things. Perhaps boring wasn't so bad after all...

add recBoth series involve an odd love/hate relationship between a strange girl from another world and the male lead. The female lead in both series brutalizes the male lead on a regular basis, usually by bashing him in the head. Both series also make extensive use of bizarre and outrageous humor. Dokuro-chan involves quite a bit of gore compared to FLCL, but otherwise both series are very similar.
FLCL and Dokuro are both violent, funny and way under the line of normal. Insanity and lots of blood, spiced with some ecchi and lovedrama - that makes a good combination in both series. If you watch the other and your brains still function, fix the problem and watch the other one too.
We all need a little bit of madness and confusion in our life, and fortunately both these short series provide a fair and healthy amount of it to spice our daily lives. If you think the same, then either one of them will suit your needs.
Crazy female leads give hell to teenager boys, FLCL and Bokusatsu Tenshi take this basic formula and deliver two of the most outlandish comedies in the history of any medium. Odd and energy filled, these series storm their way through a series of rapid scenes, using bright colours and an outstanding animation in FLCL's case. In both there is a whacky coming of age story as these frenetic anime pile references to several of the most frequent archetypes in entertainment in general and anime in particular.
Haré+Guu
Alt titles: Jungle Wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu
- TV (26 eps)
- 2001
Hale and his mother live peacefully in the jungle, until one day Hale is overtaken by a omnipotent shadow. Later, he awakens to find Guu, a strange girl with even stranger abilities. Notably, the ability to switch from a cute, lovable Guu, to a menacing delinquent who eats everything. Now Hale must live with Guu, and lead a normal life, despite her oddities.

add recGuu and Dokuro-chan each have the same kind of bizarre off-color humor, so it's no surprise that they were made by the same people. Guu is definitely more family-friendly than Dokuro-chan, but anyone who's seen the Guu OVA's should already be prepared for the bawdy, violent and weird humor of Dokuro-chan, and vice-versa.
It should come as no surprise that Haré+Guu and Dokuro-chan were made by the same people, as they use a similar sense of humour. Both contain a crazy and original idea which will provide you with some great laughs.
Haré+Guu and Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-Chan both deal with very similar main characters. In HG, Hale is a normal student until the intrusion of Guu, and same goes for Sakura-kun until the intrusion of Dokuro-chan. Guu and Dokuro-chan both possess unexplained, powerful abilities that always trouble the poor boys. If you are ready to laugh in watching a long, desparate diary of another boy being molested by the works of an unpredictable girl that somehow lives with him, give it a try. Original settings don't matter once the story gets going, fast.
Haré+Guu and Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan both feature a relatively normal boy who suddenly has to have a crazy girl live with and torment him. The girl has strange powers and relatively little understanding of societal norms.
The difference is that in Dokuro-chan, there's more violence and ecchi, and it's a shorter series than H+G.
