The manga "Devilman" created by Japanese manga genius Nagai Go in 1972 announced today that a new animation will be produced for this work. It is reported that the new animation of "Devilman" will be released this fall, and the visual image of the new animation was also released. There is no other news about this work at present, and we will continue to pay attention to the follow-up.

In 1972, the comic genius Go Nagai created the work "Devilman". The story tells the thrilling battles between the boy Akira Fudo who gained the power of the devil and the devil clan. In addition to the intuitive violent and bloody scenes, the dark and rebellious worldview and the extreme thoughts and styles of the deepest dark side and terror in human hearts that are reflected in the whole comic were quite avant-garde at the time, and they were even more abrupt compared with the comics of the same period. "Devilman" contains extremely rich philosophical thoughts and even involves extremely sensitive political topics. It also pioneered many superb methods of comic narrative that are still used today. This work has a profound impact on Japanese comics. Many of its techniques have been borrowed by later generations. Together with Tezuka Osamu's "Black Jack" and Ikeda Riyoko's "The Rose of Versailles", it is known as the three most influential comic works in the 1970s.

The comic version has 5 volumes, covering a lot of historical events and including medieval religious elements. The TV version is basically based on the comic setting but the plot is completely different. It can be said that the comic version of Devilman is the product of the author's advanced ideology.
