Devils, ethereal beings entwined with mortality, can only manifest through a vessel of flesh and blood. Yet, should an individual possess an unwavering determination, they can defy the demon's control, seizing its power as their own to become a formidable Devilman. Enter Akira Fudou, seemingly unremarkable in his feeble guise. However, embedded deep within his compassionate core resides an indomitable spirit. When his childhood companion Ryou Asuka beseeches Akira's aid in unmasking the hidden realm of devils, he unhesitatingly embraces the perilous quest. Little does he anticipate that the path they traverse shall lead them to the sinister realm of Sabbath—an abhorrent gathering characterized by debauchery and moral decay. In an abominable scene of bloodshed and destruction, the attendees succumb to possession, transforming into abhorrent behemoths of nightmare. Ravaging chaos ensues, threatening the very fabric of existence. Driven by an impulsive desire to rescue his closest friend, the unsuspecting Akira merges with the notorious devil, Amon, transmuting into a fearsome Devilman. Empowered with the ability to vanquish the remaining demons, Akira navigates his newfound form—an amalgamation of humanity and darkness. Yet, this unholy alliance awakens a primordial and insatiable force within Akira. Possessing the body of a devil, he remains a gentle-hearted soul. Together with Ryou, he embarks on a perilous journey, eradicating those who pose a threat to humanity and jeopardize the lives of his cherished companions.
