“I would like to thank everyone involved in this project.
The production has been in the works for quite some time now, and I have been looking forward to watching it.
It has been a little while since the first season, but I hope you will join the “Dorohedoro” anime world once again.
I hope you will come and join us once again in the world of “Dorohedoro” animation.'”
