[Guyver Spawn]

Devilman Crybaby - I finally watch the rest of the anime and I thought it was great. I'm a huge fan of the original Devilman manga and I wanted a new Devilman anime adaption for years ever since I read the manga for the first time like 9 years ago. I love how the story feel true to the source material, while doing its own creative take on the source material at the same time.

The anime still keeps the themes of Anti-War and Paranoia of the Unknown from the manga while modernizing the story and characters into a 21st Century World. The animation is wonderful and Yuasa's art direction really work for Devilman. Masaaki Yuasa is known for making art house avant-garde anime and his dark surreal art style is perfect for Devilman.

While I do love the anime, I can admit that it does have flaws. The development between Akira and his parents could have been handled better in my opinion. Some of the sex scenes did felt a bit pointless at times. I know Devilman is meant to exploit things, but some of the sexual stuff did felt kinda unnessary. I do want to mention that the music is fantastic though. Overall, this is a great anime and I recommended it if you like horror anime, avant-garde animation or dark toku like Garo.
