They merge and thus, the being known as DEVILMAN is born. But in the process, Akira is 'possessed' by the demon entity known as Amon. Accidentally unleashing these hellish spawn, Ryo exposes Akira to these fiends when they visit his father's abandoned lab. As it turns out, Ryo's father is a scientist and has discovered a long forgotten frozen tomb containing demonic spirits. Next up we have his wealthy friend Ryo Asuka ( YUSUKE IZAKI). Enter our main star, the meek and mild mannered Akira Fudo ( ISATO IZAKI) who's just your average ordinary student staying with a foster family and who has a secret crush on his would be foster sister, Miki Makimura ( AYANA SAKAI). One 39 episode television series, three animated features, and multiple manga volumes later, his hugely popular demonic anti-hero now hits the silver screen in a brand new live action version. Okay, enough with all that, on with the movie.ДЇor those that have no idea who or what a 'DEVILMAN' is, this new 2004 motion picture is a revamped reworked adaptation of the original story created by GO NAGAI which put a strangle hold on horror anime fan's hearts since the mid 70's. And that's also a repeating theme that you'll notice I'm going to refer to a number of times over the course of this review. That's not to say there's no hope of understanding what's happening but I'd say it would definitely help. And if you're not familiar with the original basic DEVILMAN story, you're probably in for some confusion. As I said, at the moment, the current version I acquired is not English subtitled so all you non-Japanese language speaking folks out there are up to their own reasoning powers to figure certain things out for yourself.

Before I continue, a word of warning for those of you who might be seeking the same movie version as well.

And honestly, once I do purchase the DVD, it'll probably be almost a new view since it'll more than likely be another 4 or 5 months before a legit DVD is even available. But as it turned out, I eventually broke weak and watched the whole damn thing. As much as it would have pained me, I was willing to simply wait it out for a good import English subtitled DVD.

Why, you ask? Well, as much as I was dying to see the film and so very thankful that I got a hook up to see it in the first place, I just didn't wanna squander my entire first time viewing experience of something I've waited well over a decade to see with an inferior version. Now originally, I only had plans to watch the first half of the film. So without a direct translation of the exact dialogue, I'll go ahead and warn you that I may be alittle off concerning some aspects of this film but since I'm quite familiar with the original GO NAGAI manga and anime series, I'm pretty confident I won't be too far off. DISCLAIMER: After 15 years of waiting patiently for a live action motion picture based on my favorite anime character, I was fortunate enough to finally preview the new 2004 DEVILMAN movie via a Japanese language non-English subtitled source.
