Having the body of a devil but the same crybaby heart, Akira works alongside Ryou, destroying those that harm humanity and his loved ones. Though it grants him great power, this new partnership awakens an insatiable and primeval part of Akira. In a reckless attempt to save his best friend, Akira unwittingly merges with the devil Amon and becomes a Devilman, gaining the power to defeat the remaining demons. After a chance encounter with school bullies, he is rescued by his childhood friend Ryou Asuka. Amidst bloodshed and death, demons possess the partiers, turning their bodies into grotesque monsters, and begin wreaking havoc. Akira Fudou leads the life of a typical high school student. However, to Akira's surprise, the place they go to is Sabbath: an immoral party of debauchery and degeneracy. As Devilman stands as the only thing standing between demons and total human extinction, more and more demons are seeking to slay the demon-fused human. Netflix acquired the international streaming rights for the series. The series inspired a manga adaptation and a prequel novel.

It was first screened on 17 October 2015 and was released on 11 November 2015. So when his childhood friend Ryou Asuka asks for his help in uncovering devils, Akira accepts without hesitation. Cyborg 009 VS Devilman (009VS, Saibgu 009 VS Debiruman) is a three-part anime OVA that serves as a crossover between the Cyborg 009 and Devilman series.

Weak and unassuming, Akira Fudou has always had a bleeding heart. However, if the will of an individual is strong enough, they can overcome the demon and make its power their own, becoming a Devilman. Devils cannot take form without a living host.
