I'm really surprised how well the Japanese seem to be taking to the live-action Dororo, considering that last Astro Boy anime bombed. Does it have awful idols playing the characters or something...?  |

| In Japan, yes. Especially with the sports that the Japanese are really good at, where they can and do medal. And it's a good thing they have medaled too. |
