Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan 2005

Dokuro Mitsukai and Sakura Kusakabe form the center of Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan, a story that blends danger with dark humor. The tale follows Sakura Kusakabe, a 14-year-old junior high student who, in a future twenty years ahead, develops a technology intended to stop aging in women after they reach twelve, in an attempt to dream up a “Lolicon’s World.” That well-meaning project, however, backfires in a dramatic way: it inadvertently grants immortality to humans, upsetting a higher order and drawing the ire of God himself.

From the future arrives [Dokuro Mitsukai], an assassin angel from the formidable order known as the Lulutie. Her mission is to kill Sakura to prevent the immortality plan from spreading. Yet Dokuro’s conviction wavers as she contemplates mercy and redemption, leading her to choose a different path: she decides to keep Sakura distracted and shielded so that the dangerous project can never come to fruition. To ensure Heaven’s mandate is carried out, another assassin of the Lulutie, Sabato, is dispatched. Sabato uses a mix of cunning charm and her electric baton as weapons of choice, setting off a tense clash in which she seeks to kill Sakura—and Dokuro is forced to stand in her way.

The two angels collide with Sakura’s fragile world, and Dokuro’s volatile personality paired with her super-human strength becomes a double-edged sword. In a pattern that becomes all too familiar, Dokuro accidentally kills Sakura with her massive spiked kanabō, Excalibolg, only to revive him moments later using angelic power. This ghastly loop is punctuated by her whimsical personal chant, which has become a signature refrain:

“Pipiru-piru-piru-pipiru-pii”

With each near-death and revival, Sakura’s trust in the protection she receives is tested. The ongoing cycle of danger, comedy, and supernatural intervention forces Sakura to weigh whether Dokuro’s vigilance truly protects him or whether it would be better to let Sabato carry out her grim duty and end the perpetual misery. As Heaven’s will collides with human vulnerability, the story remains a delicate balance between mercy, chaos, and the blurred lines of guardianship.
