Doron Dororon (ドロンドロロン) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Gen Oosuka. It was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from November 2021 to August 2022, and its chapters have been collected into five tankōbon volumes.
In a world where destructive creatures called Mononoke exist, a group called The Izanagi Force was created to combat these evil creatures. Dora Sasaki wishes to be a samurai to avenge the death of his mother, but finds that he cannot due to not having any supernatural energy.

Christian Markle from CBR praised the series. He felt the main protagonist was similar to Black Clover's Asta, while also feeling the overall plot drew from My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen. Despite that, he felt they were different enough to make the series feel unique. [17] Steven Blackburn from Screen Rant also offered some praise, though worried the series would take some elements of the plot of Ghost Reaper Girl that he did not like. [18]
