Review of Devilman: Crybaby
Devilman Crybaby is one of those series that takes you by surprise, at least to me it did. Beware though, because this Anime is NOT FOR EVERYONE. It contains gore, extreme nudity, and violence (rape, suicide and other sensitive matters) The story is great, presenting unique and believable characters and an extremely original approach to the "humans against a more powerful being" (like in Tokyo Ghoul or Parasyte). It is unpredictable but it is one of those shows that leaves clues for you to find and make a conclusion on your own. Much like Evangelion, which was created with inspiration to the original Devilman manga,it tackles heavily on religion and the right to live which is uncommon for a show these days, at least in such a scale
Because of the lack of limits that were given to the studio (Science Saru) from the hand of Netflix, it stands out as one of the most original and grotesque anime that I´ve watched. This is due to the animation which has a very different style (much like Shinsekai Yori) and accompanied by the beautiful OST by Kensuke Ushio which gives to life to this broken world.
Devilman Crybaby is amazing and all the credit should go to Masaaki Yuasa (Director) and Ichirō Ōkouchi (Writer). I really recommend this anime, then again this Anime is NOT FOR EVERYONE
