The worst thing to get stuck in your head.

I have noticed that I have yet to rant about a bad anime. Well, I figured I might as well start my disappointment with the anime, "Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro Chan". This is probably one of the stupidest things I have ever laid witness to. Luckily, this series was only about 12 episodes. Despite it being so short, there were many times that I wanted to just quit, I didn't want to deal with it anymore. However, I somehow pushed my way through this.

What is ridiculous is the level of cuteness that they put in this anime. I personally adore cute things, but this was ridiculous when they combined it with violence and other mature themes. The song above may sound adorable, but it is riddled with violent terminology. Not only is this filled with violence that "pi piru piru pi" part gets stuck in your head for days. Despite how much you try to deny it, it remains burned in to your mind. I heard the song once, about a year prior to watching the anime, and I still had it randomly popping in my head from time to time. Even now, after I have watched it and decided I dislike it, it still comes in to my head.

The fact of the matter, despite how difficult it was to find, there actually is a plot to this! It has something to do with 20 years in the future, girls stop aging at 12 in order to make adults more happy. It really is sickening. Well apparently, God got furious about the technical use of immortality and sent down Dokuro from the assassination angels to kill the main lead, Sakura Kusakabe, who apparently creates this world. She however thinks that he can be redeemed, so she doesn't kill him. Instead, she has random acts of violence in which she kills or injures him severely, just to revive him with her angel powers. Note: There is an over dramatic use of blood in this anime.

But in actuality, this anime is absolutely ridiculous. Nothing adds up to anything and it doesn't make sense at all.

Examples of the stupidity:
Above is Dokuro, below...her younger sister.

It isn't so much that her sister Zakuro looks older, it is the fact of their age. Zakuro is supposed to be 9 or something ridiculous like that and Dokuro is supposed to be around 13. Maybe it's just this way this anime works, but as an angel, do you get younger and more cute, less attractive as you gain age?

Another dumb thing:
Apparently when an angel gets their halo knocked off, they get explosive diarrhea.

If you are thinking on the same level as me, when you read the sentence above you probably went, "...wat."

And yeah, I am not lying here.

Third example:
This anime seems to like to use "real life images". Why? Apparently when these angels get mad at you, you end up with the real life head of an animal for the rest of the series.

All in all, this anime simply follows a boring cycle.
Joke-Violence-Revival-Violence-Joke-Revival-Inappropriate scene-Inappropriate scene-Violence-Revival
Take that and just put it on repeat, and you got this anime in a nutshell.

In the end, it was hard for me just to sit through this. But, it really takes a lot for me to not finish an anime. I will sit through it, just to finish to see if it gets better. This did not get any better. I would not recommend it unless you love adorably inappropriate little girls prancing around with violence.

Only good thing that came out of this? Hazuki from "Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu" cosplayed as Dokuro in one of the episodes. That is honestly the only reason why I watched Dokuro chan in the first place.
