Devilman Crybaby

Even though I am not familiar with the source material, I decided to watch this anime. The first couple of episodes, I felt were ok-ish. What I did not realize is that this was setting up the story for the second half of the series, which is where the show really shines. It is then that it becomes immensely brutal and uses the background of the first episodes to build on. Blood and gore go hand in hand with the drama that unfolds in front of your eyes. I was shocked to see just how brutal it becomes and had to fight against the tears on some moments. If you're looking for a feel-good anime, this is not for you.

If there is one bad thing I can say about this show, it is that it's too short. With 1 or 2 episodes more, they could have clarified some background stories and made the final battle more intense. The ending is thought provoking (in fact much more than neon genesis), but if a bit more time had been invested, it would have gone into the history books as a classic for sure.

One of the best animes on Netflix and highly recommended.

I'm not even anime guy, but this is truly a masterpiece. From the scoring, story and animation it just beautifully perfect. Really worth to watch.

As I long time fan of devilman i was highly surprised that Netflix was making a total new anime of the master piece created by Go Nagai decades ago. I tought that maybe we would see a censored version of this horror and adult anime, but God, i was wrong. This is one the best anime that i´ve seen in my life. The gore, the sex, the violence is all there. But this anime goes even further. Explores subjects as drugs, the good and bad side of every single human, fate, religion, friendship and love. The animation and the music is also superb. The Ost is so good that you´ll found yourself listening the songs again and again. Maasaki Yuasa, thanks for Making Akira Fudo fights evil once more!

Yeah, first and second episode may seems illogical but in the end they explained it well, the ending is good.

Art, characters, sound everything is great.

Let me tell you, I was not expecting it to get that crazy. I initially found this anime through a social media platform, and honestly started watching it without knowing absolutely anything. The first episode was quite unexpected and I wasn't sure why some things happened and was slightly confused. Then I dropped it for a bit because it wasn't exactly going as fast as I wanted it to and the plot wasn't that intriguing. However, after a couple of episodes everything got so much more intense and I felt every single bit of it. I really love how this anime shed light on very human aspects of life and the true nature of humans, it offered a wonderful perspective and got me to ponder about a lot of things. Would highly recommend this is you don't mind all the gore, sexual actions and just want to think about life while also feeling every emotion in this insane rollercoaster.
