Fans of the dark manga series "Dorohedoro" can look forward to new material. As reported by the news site Comic Natalie, creator Q Hayashida will publish a new short story of her cult series in the May issue of the magazine "Gessan" (Shogakukan). The issue will be released in Japan on April 11, 2026.
This is the first time in six years that "Dorohedoro" will be found again in the pages of "Gessan." The completely new story will be published as a one-shot and serves as a special event to celebrate the upcoming premiere of the second season of the anime adaptation.
This second season, "Dorohedoro Season 2," also starts in April. As confirmed by the official anime account and several platforms, the new episodes will be released almost simultaneously worldwide on various streaming platforms every Wednesday at 23:00 (JST) starting April 1, 2026. The anime studio MAPPA, which was already responsible for the first season, is also producing the continuation. Yuichiro Hayashi is once again directing. In addition to the already known voice actors including Takayuki Sugō (Caiman) and Reina Kondo (Nikaido), further voice actors for members of the Cross-Eyes organization have recently been announced, including Kōki Uchiyama and Daiki Hamano.
