Post-apocalyptic swordsman hunting for his body parts? I love you, Japan!

[dangermousie]

One of the reasons I like Asian entertainment?

I have just watched a movie about a guy in post-apocalyptic New Zealand Japan who is on a quest to recover his 48 missing body parts, which have been taken by demons. He is accompanied by a cross-dressing female thief and he has swords for arms.

DororoHow much do I love you? Almost as much as I love

I haven't watched Dororo yet (I have it) but YES. ORANGE DAYS. A;SLDKFJALSKDJF It is my absolute favorite jdrama of all time, so I'm REALLY HAPPY that you're picking it up. *flails*

[dangermousie]

I am totally starting this weekend. Can't wait!

[akosikae]

Do, do, do watch Orange Days

[dangermousie]

Will start asap

[fenrir_khan]

Yesss!! You must watch Orange Days. Now. ((Are you watching?))

Dororo looks awesome. But what I predict will be even more awesome is me trying to explain the plot to other people.

[dangermousie]

LOL, I will start it this weekend.

I have so much glee for explaining the plot of the movie!

Also, when he gets his tongue back, he rolls in the mud screaming her name.

And I adore that the big "romantic" scene at the end was his going to hug her after she cries and him getting kneed and kinda being "ok, not ready for that yet..." (Does he has that part back yet? DOES HE??? IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR A VARIETY OF BABYMAKING REASONS!!!!)

Also, there are sequels coming. And A manga. I must find the manga.

[dangermousie]

He has to have gotten that part back already otherwise he wouldn't feel aby pain or effect. He only hurts/is wounded in the parts that he got back. Yay!

I can't wait for the sequels.

But did you know that Dororo is a boy in the manga?

[meganbmoore]

No, I didn't know that, though I'm still interested in the manga. I think the leads are engaged in RL or something, so it was probably changed so it could be a couples movie.

[dangermousie]

Awww. They are a RL couple? Cute.
