Dororo: The Mio Chronicle

7 episodes

In an age of war and youkai, a boy with prosthetic limbs hunts demons to reclaim the body stolen from him at birth. Hyakkimaru cannot hear, cannot speak—his senses severed along with his flesh. But one night, a song pierces the silence that has always surrounded him, drawing him to a ruined temple and the girl who sings it. Mio. An orphan caring for other orphans in a world that has no place for the weak. He cannot tell her what her voice awakens in him. She cannot know the monster he is hunting—or the price the demons will demand. Some songs heal. Some songs call things that should never be awakened. A retelling of the classic tale, where a voiceless swordsman and a singing orphan discover that the parts of us we've lost may be the only things worth fighting for.
