Event Year: 2019

Jukai is a doctor who travels the land fitting prosthetic arms and legs to those who have lost their limbs in war. One day, on the riverbank he finds a baby missing most of its body parts. He decides to raise the child, who he names “Hyakkimaru”. Jukai provides the child with prostheses, but the time comes when Hyakkimaru sets out on a journey to recover his own body parts.

Dororo and Hyakkimaru happen upon a village and are brought before its chief, Lady Bandai. However, Hyakkimaru inexplicably draws his sword in her presence, resulting in both him and Dororo being locked in a storehouse by the villagers. It turns out they are not the only ones confined there…

In Japan's Warring States period, Lord Daigo Kagemitsu makes a pact with 12 demons, offering them his unborn son in exchange for the prosperity of his lands. Years later, young thief Dororo is attacked by a ghoul but rescued by a mysterious boy, whose body parts turn out to be almost entirely prosthetic.

Sabame has been feeding people to the demons to protect the village over which he rules. As Hyakkimaru once again confronts the demon moths, Dororo gets trapped in a storehouse.
