Reception
Zach Wilkerson and Vince Ostrowski of Multiversity Comics praised the humor, though they felt the series was too generic.{{cite web|title=This Week in Shonen Jump: Week of 4/26/20|url=http://www.multiversitycomics.com/news-columns/this-week-in-shonen-jump-042620/|website=Multiversity Comics|last1=Wilkerson|first1=Zach|last2=Ostrowski|first2=Vince|date=April 29, 2020|access-date=May 7, 2023}} Jacob Parker-Dalton of Otaquest felt that the series had potential, though he felt the artwork was poorly drawn.{{cite web|title=Bone Collection Chapter 1 Digs Around – Your Manga Week #26|url=https://www.otaquest.com/bone-collection-chapter-1-shonen-jump-recap/|website=Otaquest|last=Parker-Dalton|first=Jacob|date=April 28, 2020|access-date=May 7, 2023}} Steven Blackburn of Screen Rant compared Doron Dororon to Bone Collection, ultimately calling the former a blander version of the latter.{{cite web|title=Shonen Jump's Doron Dororon is Haunted by Another Manga's Failure|url=https://screenrant.com/shonen-jump-doron-dororon-bone-collection-failure-haunted/|website=Screen Rant|last=Blackburn|first=Steven|date=January 1, 2022|access-date=May 7, 2023}}
