Devil ManDevil Man is a fanatastic anime title that unfortunately leaves us with only two episodes to watch. The storyline follows a young high school kid named Akira who is contacted by his long lost friend Ryo. Ryo who is acting completely different from the last time Akira had seen him, asks Akira for his help. Ryo then tells of how his father, an archaeologist, when mad shortly after finding an artifact. This artifiact allows people to see into the hell realm, but also allows the hell realm to find the person looking into hell. Akira soon learns that demons roam the Earth, and from that point on Ryo's life will never be the same. He agrees to help Akira, only to find out that he is to be used as bait at a bloody sabbath, which invokes demons into peoples physical body. Soon after Akira becomes possessed, he takes control of the power that the demon has, becoming Devil Man. He then, slaughters all the other demons at the sabbath and continues to kill the demons he finds on Earth, all the while fighting to keep his sanity as the demon within him fights to take control. This is an amazing anime title by Go Nagai also the creator of The Devil Lady, which is very similar in comparison. This anime title is extremely graphic and violent, meant for mature audiences only. The characters are fantastic as is the animation and storyline. It is a shame however that there are only two episodes available for the US. The sound, music and voiceovers are good and do well to add to the overall appeal of this title. I highly recommend this title to all fans of the horror genre.
