What to Expect in Episode 4
The story so far has seen Caiman and Nikaido searching for answers about his past. The first three episodes set up the ongoing battle between Caiman and En’s family of sorcerers.
Episode 4 will likely show more of the Cross-Eyes gang’s plans. The preview suggests a murder cover-up that could have big effects on the story. Caiman’s search for the sorcerer who cursed him continues, and new clues may come to light.
The show keeps its mix of dark humor, brutal fights, and strange characters. Fans of the manga know that the story only gets crazier from here.
A Six-Year Wait Finally Ends
Dorohedoro first aired in January 2020. The first season had 12 episodes and covered the early parts of Q Hayashida’s manga. Fans waited over six years for the second season.
The show’s return on April 1, 2026 came as a surprise to many. MAPPA announced the second season back in January 2024, and the wait finally ended this month with three new episodes.
The new season picks up where the first left off. Caiman still has his lizard head and no memories. Nikaido still runs her restaurant, The Hungry Bug. And En still wants to eliminate anyone causing trouble in his world.
