What happens

Dororo is a 2007 Japanese dark fantasy action film based on the 1960s manga series by Osamu Tezuka. Shot in New Zealand, the film's storyline has some major differences from that of the manga, one of which is that Hyakkimaru and Dororo are significantly older than their manga incarnations.
