The series' themes and Akira's design have influenced multiple other series such as Neon Genesis Evangelion and X.Īkira Fudo is a shy teenager who lives in his friend Miki Makimura's house as his parents work abroad. Despite mixed reception in regards to whether or not the art was appealing, critics enjoyed Nagai's darker take on the superhero tropes mostly due to how violent the manga was and recommended the manga to most readers who are not sensitive to gore. The manga has sold 50 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling manga series.

The manga was published between June 1972 and June 1973, while multiple publishers have released it in collected volumes ( tankōbon). However, Nagai wrote a darker-toned manga in order to alert readers of the dangers of the wars based on how dark the narrative becomes with each of Akira's challenges.ĭevilman 's 39-episode anime series was developed by Toei Animation in 1972, while Nagai began the Devilman as a manga in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine, barely a month before the anime series started. The series was originally ordered by Toei Animation as a toned-down anime version of Nagai's previous manga series, Demon Lord Dante.

The manga focuses on a high school student named Akira Fudo who absorbs the powers of the demon called ' Amon' with help of his friend Ryo Asuka in order to battle creatures hidden in human society, thus calling himself the 'Devilman' in the process. I wish they would have done more with it, and although I think it's worse then the other two, I would still give it, like, 4.5/10 for shock factor and being entertaining, just not very good.Devilman ( Japanese: デビルマン, Hepburn: Debiruman) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Go Nagai. It felt pumped up only for Akira to just walk away from satan/ryo, and left so many questions about what was going to happen to them, the rest of the world, etc. I'm still really into horror and body horror, which is how I got into devilman in the first place, but it felt they were trying to hard and focusing only on the gruesome parts. The scene where devilman rips off some girls boobs and then eats them, the girl that shoots acid out of her boobs, the graphic scene of Akiras little brother torn apart, and more. Although the other 2 were still pretty graphic, like Akiras mom getting ripped apart, it was nothing compared to this one. But, this one felt that it was too focused on the horror and gruesome part. The way they portrayed ryo as satan was really pretty though. The art just didnt feel right after watching the other 2. Well, for starters, it sucks the animators switched. Overall, I liked the first one better but this was still good.ĭevilman: amon apocalypse of the devilman. Especially that scene with Akira shooting Silene on the building. However, the fight with silene and the water-demon thing was great! I love how well they planned out the battling, flying up in the air and falling down, it was very action packed. I felt it was kinda weird how Akiras personality changed way more than expected, and I felt it was pretty weird for Akira to say weird comments to miki about her knackers and tits, since he was her love interest. They mostly focused on Akira and miki, including their relationship with eachother.

I dont really understand why the mask/hat thing gave them the ability to see into the past, though, but not really much to say besides that.ĭevilman OVA: the demon bird was good as well. The characters are likeable, plot is good, tone is nice. It's still horror, but they keep the characters steady and it isnt gruesome. The art style is cute, and the dub is funny. Well, Devilman OVA: the birth I enjoyed lots, the way they portrayed akira, ryo, and miki make me love the characters. Today, I sat down and watched the entire devilman OVA series, and I liked the first two.
