I just watched the first season of Dorohedoro. Who the fuck am I supposed to be rooting for? Kaiman is a driftless retard, Nikaido is too subversive of Kaiman to be empathetic and then ends up getting mind controlled making her less empathetic, Noi and Shin are sociopaths even though the show tries to make them out not to be, and En is a megalomaniac that isn't afraid to wipe out cities.

The fact that they're pieces of shit in some way is the appeal, they're just fun to watch be stupid and kill people.

There need to be more anime where every character is a likeable dirtbag

I can't do that. I could in theory get behind Kaiman if he was less retarded, mainly because his motivations make sense (fuck Magic Users), however we see the reversal with Shin (fuck humans) but he inevitably just stops caring about this as his motivation and just ends up doing what En wants him to do. He loses any moral compass he may have had while Kaiman on the other hand never really head one beyond an instinctual "Magic Users bad even if they never did anything wrong".

You're supposed to be rooting for Kaiman. Obviously.

Shin wasn't about hating humans, he just hated the ones who killed his parents. After he took revenge for his father he went to the magic user world and left hole behind. He never went back until he was ordered to kill Kaiman.

Shin and Noi are arguably the least shitty characters, and even they are hired hitmen. Don't go into Dorohedoro if you want characters with pristine moral slates.

That's the point. None of the leading characters are morally-pristine, the fact everyone's fucked up in one or more ways yet still likeable as hell is part of what makes the series so good honestly.

You're supposed to read the manga and not watch shitty CGI anime

Yes, read the manga and the good CG anime.

I can't like them, that's the problem. Kaiman murders people who didn't do anything to him, demonstrably. He doesn't even know why he does it. Just that he does it. Nikaido aids him in his spree killing because she is a bad person and feels guilty over what happened to him, and if the ending is any indication she just becomes an even larger pile of shit. I can't like these characters. It's one thing to have moral flaws, or character weaknesses, it's quite another for the entire main cast to be murder hobos.

You're supposed to root for Chidaruma dummy

He never looked like that ever again.

>Nikaido is too subversive of Kaiman to be empathetic
What on earth is this supposed to mean? Do you know the meaning of the words you're using?

I didn't think the anime was particularly terrible looking in broad strokes, but the difference between how good Kaiman's head looks in the manga VS anime is downright comical

Magic users aren't people

This is your brain if you're an anime only

The only good persons in Dorohedoro are Fujita and Doc.

>point me to good guys who punch bad guys
This is your brain on modern fiction.

>Who the fuck am I supposed to be rooting for?
Best boy Kasukabe of course

Hole did nothing wrong and nothing you say will change my mind. Fuck En, fuck Chidaruma and fuck magic users. Magic users suck!

You're out of your mind if you think that shot would look very different even if the anime weren't using CG. But it's dumb to begin with to compare stills from an anime to panels from a manga. Of course the one that needs to create exponentially more frames is going to look worse on average. The benefit of CG is both keeping the art quality permanently consistent and lowering the cost of reuse. If we ever get more seasons, it's because it was CG.

Not worth bothering with magic users, they're all going to hell no matter what anyway.

CG will never be good. Just accept the fact you like eating shit and deal with it.

the world of dorohedoro is extremely violent and doesn't take itself too seriously. murder isn't even a big deal for these characters, it's just part of daily life for them, so you can't really judge them as you would normally. this series doesn't even have a villain really, just different groups with opposing motives.

Nobody important dies or stays dead so it doesn't matter who you root for

As much as I tend to hate CG, the argument for consistency is very compelling. It probably won't be particularly long before hard surface geniuses like Vitaly Bulgarov start getting into making models for shows and not just video games and movies.

You were supposed to have fun

I'm still sad about Natsuki and Ton desu

>needing authors to lay out which characters to root for instead of enjoying the story
Maybe stick to shounen?

>Who the fuck am I supposed to be rooting for?
for the cute shark girl, of course!
