Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan
Synopsis, screenshots, recommendations ~ Add Recommendations Discuss individual episodes and first impressions of this anime here; reviews and final impressions should be posted in the Anime Reviews Forum. Post format and full rules can be found here. __________________________________________ *Shakes head at this one with a smile.* IMO every harem show should have a Dokuro-chan character in it. Not that this is a harem show or is it? This show is just SO insane :D great to get rid of stress. Discuss, even if it's only the pattern of the blood splatter.

I'm only 2 episodes in, but I can honestly tell you...
This must be the (prettier) South Park of Japan. It's simply ridiculous, over the top violence and toilet humor placed inside of what is supposed to be a children's world. Has anyone else seen this ridiculous (but hilarious) series? |

I don't like it. I'm not for this kind of comedy ecchi violence. And Dokuro went on my "characters I want to choke to death" list for her ear-grating voice. It's even worse than an Aya Hirano squeal.
And for fanbois and girls who bristle at my Hirano comment, try listening to her squeal, and remember that EVERY SINGLE character she's ever voiced has a lower pitched voice than her normal. |

I watched one episode and dropped it. It's definitely not the South Park of Japan, if anything Crayon Shin-chan would be like South Park but even that is not close.
If I had to compare Dokuro chan it would have to be Ren and Stimpy. The "humor" is exactly the same. |

*shakes fist at Xennon and speaks in old man American voice* Nobody speaks ill of Ren and Stimpy... nobody...
As for Dokuro-chan. Next to Ouran High School, no other anime has made me laugh so hard. Didn't realise the second series was out. PS. YPaladin, hope you searched the forum for an already-existing Dokuro-chan thread before you posted. I think there might already have been one. Anyway, glad there's another fan.

For some reason though, the second season is just not doing for me what the first did. I greatly enjoyed the first series. Having seen the first four (well, 2-split) episodes of the second release, I have not laughed nearly as hard, and in fact found a large part of it to be just lame attempts at fanservice. For instance, there's a moment in episode three where Dokuro inexplicably walks up to a large lever on the wall and goes "Oh, is it OK for me to touch such a large, hard, long thing?". There is no context for a lot of this, and rather than seeming funny, it just sort of ticks me off. I want more random parodies of things, and I am not getting them. Pun-pun (boo).
Still, if you like "utterly random" as a comedic style, you won't be disappointed by this. |
