[edit] Character
Zeroro is a lance corporal of the Keron Army. After crash landing on Pekopon, he was rescued by Koyuki Azumaya (with the help of Zeroyasha in the anime). Wishing to follow the way of the ninja, Zeroro changed his name to Dororo, after the forest where he was rescued. He spends most of his time training, reading, doing nature-related works, or spying on the actions of Keroro Platoon and others. Dororo is often forgotten by the rest of Keroro Platoon, causing his trauma switch to turn on, making him sit in a corner and cry. Also, Dororo will not participate in plans that are potentially harmful to people's feelings or the nature.
[edit] Appearance
He is a blue Keronian. Throughout his childhood, Zeroro wore a medical mask. The ears of his white hat were shrouds. His symbol is a red (four-star) shuriken. Before when he was an assassin, he wore a gas mask. As the ninja Dororo, he dons a ninja mask and sheath for his sword strapped to his back. Dororo's afro is bright pink.
[edit] Childhood
As a child, Zeroro's hobby was gardening, which he carried into his adulthood. Currently, he trains his physical swiftness and mental swiftness through meditation.
Young Zeroro still carried his kindness. However, being an assassin, Zeroro had less difficulty with stealth. However, his near death experiences in his childhood brought him to care for nature. Frequently being ignored, Dororo has developed sensitive emotions.
Zeroro was part of a large, wealthy family. He was part of Keroro and Giroro's friendship (that Pururu later joined). There, he was often exploited by the group. Throughout their friendship, Keroro has broken Zeroro's beloved music box, used his stamp collection, wrote in his novels, and many more. His friendship with Keroro was struggled, as opposed to his with Giroro.
[edit] History
Zeroro graduated from the Keron Military Academy under the rank of Lance Corporal. He was assigned as the assassin of the Keroro Platoon alongside Keroro, Giroro, Tamama and Kururu. They were given the mission to conquer Pekopon. Also, in the manga, he used to be a private second class.
Caught in a bear trap on Pekopon, Zeroro expected his inevitable, lonely death until he was saved and adopted by the kunoichi Koyuki Azumaya who trained him the way of the ninja. In the anime, Zeroyasha, Koyuki's friend dog, found him in the trap. On Pekopon, Zeroro was caught in a bear trap, abandoned by his teammates, until he was saved and adopted by the kunoichi Koyuki Azumaya. She taught him the the ways of the ninja. Zeroro renames himself Dororo, and rejoins the Keroro Platoon.
[edit] Relationships
- Keroro, Giroro and Pururu - As a child, Zeroro, Keroro and Giroro were friends. Their friendship brought them to be blood brothers (as stated by Keroro). Out of the two, Giroro was his closest friend. However, Zeroro was exploited by Keroro until Pururu joined.
- Koyuki Azumaya - On Pekopon, Dororo developed a special friendship with Koyuki Azumaya. They live together in a small house in the woods near the Nishizawa Tower (anime).
- Dororo's mother
[edit] Speech
Dororo often ends his sentences with "de gozaru", an archaic form of 'desu'. Dororo's self referring nickname, sessha, is an archaic male form of "I", primarily used by samurai.
Dororo also parodies phrases commonly spoken by other characters voiced by his voice actor Takeshi Kusao.
