History YMMV / Dorohedoro

* MemeticMutation: That is... Dorohedoro [[note]] A manga volume/episode ends with a simplified recap of everything that transpired before ending on this note to sum up the absolute chaos and weirdness of the series. [[/note]]

* NauseaFuel: The series has a bit of a reputation for having some absolutely disgusting content. Hole is one of the worst [[WretchedHive Wretched Hives]] in manga, with it's standout feature being a literal ''lake of garbage and rotting body parts.''

** Turkey and Chota qualify as well. Turkey because he can create [[CloningBlues PERFECT REPLICAS, albeit without personality]] of EVERYONE... [[SincerityMode WITH A PIZZA]], and Chota because he's sweet one moment, and if you piss him off, one of the worst tormentors in the series, bar [[TheDreaded Kai]]

* FanPreferredCouple: [[OfficeRomance Shin and Noi]], [[ThroughHisStomach Nikaido and Kaiman]], [[HugeGuyTinyGirl Fujita and Ebisu]].

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: Some parts, despite the occasionally-rough anatomy, and the simplified style in the faces, looks so darn good. What makes it especially hilarious is that the author herself stated that she was terrible at art when she was a kid and even into art school!

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Much like fellow Netflix anime ''Manga/{{Beastars}}'', Dorohedoro has multiple ending songs. All of which are played by the musical group ''[=(K)NoW_NAME=]''. All of which are considered absolute bangers by the fandom. The content of the endings also overlap with SugarWiki/AwesomeArt.

** Their first reunion after Risu's resurrection includes Aikawa taking care of Risu for two days and Risu telling Aikawa that there's no one else who cares about him like he does. And though he's only pretending to trust Aikawa in that scene, his desire to believe in him seems genuine. A recent chapter has Aikawa hugging Risu, crying, and apologizing for not having been able to save him [[spoiler:from Kai]]. It's enough to make Risu drop his defenses and let go of his anger for a moment.

** Oi Josuke! [insert sentence]. [[note]] Kaiman is voiced by noneother than Creator/WataruTakagi, who also voices Okuyasu Nijimura from ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable''. Fans of both shows have taken a habit of quoting as Okuyasu and pretending as though he turned into Kaiman, then talking to Josuke about it. [[/note]]
** Shin is Argentinian [[note]] Due the fact that his door has "El corazón" written, which means "The Heart", the fact that he's a halfbreed/mestizo and that a well known Spanish translation in which he swears in an Argentinian fashion, people from the Spanish speaking part of the fandom have called him an Argentinian wizard, double so because everyone else speaks in a more neutral dialect. Fans who try to make him Chilean or Mexican, are met with scorn, funnily enough, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N69fgcv1JaA his theme song]] sounding like a tango only adds fuel to the fire [[/note]]

* TearJerker: Everyone's reaction to [[spoiler: En being killed by Kai]], all of the servants feel completely lost without him. [[spoiler: En]] was so much of a BenevolentBoss despite being a bad guy.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Chidaruma. Yes he’s the literal devil and is supposed to be evil, but it was clear from some of his comments [[spoiler: during the Hole-kun incident]] where he says that deep down he’s [[spoiler: a deeply unhappy entity which has never been able to form a bond with anyone, ever, and is gnawed at by constant loneliness]] that we are supposed to sympathize with him on some level. The fact he is a SmugSnake {{jerkass}} makes this hard for many readers, who instead are glad he’s suffering in some way rather than being a complete KarmaHoudini.

* AcceptableTargets: Magic Users, which is why Kaiman's slaughter of them doesn't make him abhorrent. Most magic users are complete scum who will mercilessly torture humans for fun and for their twisted experiments, of which Kaiman is likely a result of. Also subverted later, as he mellows out of it after visiting their world and befriending a few Magic Users, learning they are not all evil.

* CrazyAwesome: Johnson, a human-sized cockroach that spouts "Shocking!", among others. He also wears sneakers, and he is possibly the only thing in Hole that is deadlier than Kaiman.

** Shin is Argentinian [[note]] Due the fact that his door has "El corazón" written, which means "The Heart", the fact that he's a halfbreed/mestizo and that a well known Spanish translation in which he swears in an Argentinian fashion, people from the Spanish speaking part of the fandom have called him an Argentinian wizard, double so because everyone else speaks in a more neutral dialect.

* {{Squick}}: The series has a bit of a reputation for having some absolutely disgusting content. Hole is one of the worst [[WretchedHive Wretched Hives]] in manga, with it's standout feature being a literal ''lake of garbage and rotting body parts.''
** Other standout examples include Shin's power to bisect people into chunks with a wave of his hand, Noi's healing powers allowing the cast to get some seriously brutal injuries and walk it off like it's nothing, and [[spoiler: Kai's Artificial Devil suit, being a walking MiniMecha made of ''rotting human organs.'']]
** Some of the visuals revolving around Kai can be extremely disturbing, especially when one gets a glimpse into his inner world- [[spoiler: the imagery of multiple rotting heads bursting out of his neck is revolting.]]

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Much like fellow Netflix anime ''Manga/{{Beastars}}'', Dorohedoro has multiple ending songs. All of which are played by the musical group [=(K)NoW_NAME=]. All of which are considered absolute bangers by the fandom. The content of the endings also overlap with SugarWiki/AwesomeArt.

** The anime also deserves special mention due to the breathtaking backgrounds, fluid animation and overall, captures the whole spirit of the manga, while it's true it's [[AllCGICartoon partly CGI]], there's love put into this production, moreso because it airs without censorship once per week on Netflix.

** Noi is best girl/my waifu [[note]] The fandom ''really'' likes Noi, ''specifically'' because she's an AmazonianBeauty. [[/note]]
*** X is best girl [[note]] In some cases, Nikaido, Ebisu, and other female characters are so likable that they give Noi competition in the best girl department. It's not so much as a debate as to who "Best Girl" is, so much as some fans can't pick one. [[/note]]
** Johnson is best girl.

*** X is best girl [[note]] In some cases, Nikaido, Ebisu, and other female characters are so likable that they give Noi competition in the best girl department. It's not so much as a debate as it is that no one can decide which of them is. [[/note]]

** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp0Tmw3HPNk D.D.D.D]]", which trades in "upbeat" for enchanting. It also featuring a ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'' inspired, first-person video game animation with En as the player character. Only instead of guns, he turns people into mushrooms.
