At times is prone to extreme exaggeration, but is grounded enough to not be inconceivable. Some characterizations were unsatisfying, weird, and inconsistent, but the show still packs an emotional gut punch. While my perspective of this show may be affected by the fact this is my first exposure to Devilman, I still thoroughly enjoyed it, especially after things picked up around the second half of the show. Could it be better? Yes. But Devilman is a story that works, over 40 years into the future.

eh. I really love the animation style but it hits the threshold of extreme violence going from gnarly to trite fairly quickly, which causes the ending to be eyeroll-worthy rather than tragic. I would have liked it a lot when I was 15 though, and teens—especially those struggling with gender/sexual identity—even moreso. but there are also better works which accomplish the same thing. this has titties and some cool gore, though, so watch that if you're OK with a sloppy conclusion.

As a Devilman fan, I'm happy. It could have been better, but it's pretty great. The animations isn't my cup of tea but I have to say that some parts look amazing. The soundtrack is, with the exception of the rap songs, fittingly epic. And the story, well, I love it so I'm extremely biased here, and yes, they changed a few things but the stuff they did adapt is just so good. This said, Devilman is not for everyone: it's mean, dark, cynical and blasphemous. But it's one of the manga classics.

Pretty interesting show. I think if it had a few more episodes, it could've dove a bit more into the characters and story. However, it was a great watch.
