Based on the award-winning and influential 1960s manga by Osamu Tezuka and produced by Tezuka Productions and Studio MAPPA (Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan: The Final Season), Dororo tells the story of Hyakkimaru, a boy who was born without limbs, eyes, ears, a nose and skin due to a deal with demons made by his power-hungry father. Although abandoned and left for dead as a child, Hyakkimaru is saved by a medicine man who provides him with weaponized prosthetics. Bereft of sight, touch and hearing, Hyakkimaru sets out to defeat the demons that robbed him of his senses and meets an orphan boy named Dororo, a street urchin and thief who decides to accompany the wandering warrior on his quest.
