Hey everybody, going to be posting a gem of the medium here tonight, one of my personal favorites. I might not get to it in one go, but I'm itching to do the entire series.So here we go, time for some fucking Devilman
Ah man, was going to try and spoiler the first image.
This is a comic, regardless of what country it was created in. This is a comics board. It belongs.
Been a minute since I've storytimed without a pass.
And we meet Akira Fudo, in all his pansy-ass glory.
I love Go Nagai women.
Asuka is one of my favorite supporting characters in a Manga out there. All the way through.
I don't know if this thread is being watched at all, but bumps would be appreciated.
>>15871
>Devilman
Nice taste, OP. You're a champ.
If you end up storytiming the entire series, I'll be a long for the ride.
>>15906
I'm happy to have you aboard, anon. The news of the new Netflix series got me wanting to re-read the series, and I just fell in love with it all over again and had to share.
And here we go!
Time for violence!
>>15884
These delinquents are great.
Akira is going out of his way to be the world's biggest bitch. Even early Bruce Banner would be unimpressed here.
>>15931
Go Nagai always makes wonderful delinquents.
>>15894
>404
What happened here?
>>15894
>>15938
Huh, no idea. Lemme fix that, thanks for pointing it out.
thanks for the storytime OP. I love comics. I wish we had our own board separate from cartoons where we're free to post comics from any country.
>>15950
You and me both, brother. You and me both.
>>15872
I agree. I also think anime are just cartoons, but don't tell to /a/utists.
>>15952
what are some of your favorite comics OP?
Speaking of mangas, OP, Spider-man has a really really good manga, very underrated I think.
All men are rapists and women are sluts, basically, if you like Devilman you'll enjoy it.
>>15957
I'd have to say Cerebus, Hellboy/BPRD, Flex Mentallo, Busiek's Conan, Berserk, Grendel, Moore's Swamp Thing and I could go on and on. I've been wanting to break into more european stuff, which I will with the Moebius Libraries from Dark Horse sooner or later.
>>15958
I love Japanese Spider-Man, definitely a downer but quite well done. I actually hadn't made the Devilman comparison before but it totally fits. The Toku Spider-Man is also really choice.
>>15959
I know but I really would like it if comics were its own board. If /a/ can be separate from mecha as its own board I have no idea why the fuck we're still stuck with two
>>15960
good taste OP. You should give Lastman comic a try. It's a french comic which can be picked up in trade form. Currently published by firstsecond
>>15962
I don't find that too many comics people are against the idea. Who knows. Maybe someday.
>>15965
Lastman? I'll look it it up. Gimme a quick pitch though, for the hell of it.
Fuck Yeah !!! Devilman!!
Thanks OP
>>15969
You're very welcome anon, thank you for popping in and reading!
Congrats on the good taste OP.
>>15922
I love these monsters.
Oh goddammit, the april fools' shift ate like half the comic with it. Fuck me.
Alright, half might be an exaggeration but it's still demoralizing.
>The shift to /cock/ brings normal image cooldown time with it
Guys... I don't think 4chan wants storytiming right now.
>>22080
Are you going to let yourself be beaten by cock?
I'd read this, but I simply can't do manga on a computer screen. Its appreciated though.
>>22122
Hell no, not when I have so much practice beating it!
>>22122
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-tcazG_c_8
>>22133
>worrying about taking your shoes off after you drive a car through the door
I'm having trouble thinking of words to describe Akira.
>>22183
There's little about this series that isn't unabashedly over-the-top.
Including just how much of an absolute wimp Akira is here at the beginning.
Alrighty now, after losing that much of the thread I caved and got a pass again. Let's get rolling, now.
God, Ryo is so cool.
>>22284
>bruh
Holy shit I missed this speed.
>>22345
Can't argue with that logic.
It's okay Akira, you're certainly pure.
Although for the wimp he's been he is taking this quite well I must say.
And here starts my 2nd favorite sequence in this series.
>>22417
He's a wimp, but he always keeps appointments.
>>22478
Whoa hell looks awesome!!!
Glad to see you again Devilman anon.
>>22481
I can't help but read that last panel in Butthead's voice.
>>22497
This is actually my first time storytiming this series here, but it's nice to hear it's happened before.
What a nice guy, bringing all these hippies and homeless people here to this gogo club built in in iron prison underground.
>>22540dat foreshadowing
It sure is a good thing a square like Akira has a true friend like Ryo to help him be cool!
>>22515
B-but I saw it storytimed with these same text posts. Think it was to derail a bait thread. Maybe it was a psychic dream..
>>22569
Oh shit, you're not wrong.
>>22577
Welcome too /cock/
Although do remember, Ryo is fucking nuts.
so how much do you think you're going to story time after d-man? I'm guessing just the translated stuff, but then does that include like everything like the Amon manga or VJ, or just the sequels to devilman itself.
Either way good game anon.
>>22607
That's why he's cool, honestly.
>>22626
Honestly I was just planning on storytiming Devilman proper. Spinoffs are all nice and good, but my main interest lies in the original. I could totally be persuaded otherwise, however, especially with DL links.
>>22664
i can provide you with lady if you want, was downloading it only yesterday, but on second thought, story timing that could possibly get you a ban
As I said, Ryo is fucking nuts.
>>22689
I could storytime it on /aco/. I've never read Devilman Lady either, it'd be nice to check it out.desu this right here could get me banned.
And now the violence begins in earnest!
>>22719
This is why the only parties Ryo can get into are the ones in his basement.
What a page.
OH GOD Hiroshima Nagasaki made /mlpol/!
>>22711
Lady seems divisive, personally i think its very good, but gets a bit weaker towards the end due to a rushed ending forced on by editors or some matter.
Give me a min and ill try finding the links.
>>22803
>>22812
>>22818
>>22833
Fuck yeah Welvath.
Managed to pick up this thing in toy form a few years back. Rarely go for that kind of thing, but it looked amazing.
Devilman!
>>22941
Are there good Devilman figures? I'm really hoping the new series gets us a modern design S.H. Figuarts
I heard good stuff about Devilman Grimoire.
If you can post Ranx on /aco/, you can post Devilman Lady
>>23013
And knowing /aco/ it'd be up there for about a month and change at minimum.
>>15871
Came here for /cock/, stayed for Devilman.
Good job, OP.
>>23047
Pages like this showcase the best of Nagai.
>>23052
Love you too, anon.
>>22960
i mean yeah, but the only ones i like are the nirasawa ones, and that mainly because i'm a big fan of his artwork. Its gorgeous.
basically anything under the fewture line is good.
heres lady, i think its all of them, plus more nagai stuff. And getter, i recommend you read the getter series some point, its very good.
Apparently my link is spam, but the site i used is a blogspot called Dynamic pro scantalations
And with that, i'm off to sleep! I'll be back later today/tonight/tomorrow with more Devilman!
Wanna see how Akira acts now that he's fused with Amon? Want to see how Miki takes to it? Want to see more of one of the best comics to ever come out of Japan? Tune in again.
>>23081
Ahh, should have figured Dynamic Pro would have Lady. I've been up for awhile.
As for Getter, I appreciate the hell out of the rec, but you're preaching to the choir my friend. Couldn't get too much into the Mazinger manga (more a fan of Shin and the Kaiser shows) but Getter is a hell of a ride.
>>23047
Fucking love this pic.
>>23082
based work anon, thanks for the storyimedont look mods
>>23082
Thanks OP I'm looking forward to it.
>>23111
all good freind, but while i do like it, Nagai barely gave a shit about the mazinger manga and was annoyed it got more popular then devilman.
The latter stuff he wrote in the 90's was very good though
>>23082
Cool thread.
>>15966
>>91211370
lastman is a about a mysterious man outsider called richard aldana who comes to team up with a kid called adrian to win a fighting tournament. The art style is very loose and fluid making the fight scenes really entertaining to look at. There's also some nice panel layouts and some cool things they do with color tones. Overall its a great comic where its obvious the people involved actually care about taking advantage of the medium to push the story forward
>>15885
How is Asuka so cool?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww5us943s94
>>23047
Now that's a fuckin page right there!
>>15871
>Verotik
Thank you based Glenn Danzig.
>>25318
Could I just skip to the end of the 70s anime to see the alternate ending?
>>15953
Most of /a/ agrees with that thought.
bump
>>25614
No: Nagai explicitly tried to make the manga as different from the anime as possible
(the Devilman TV anime production actually predates the manga, and the manga was commissioned only as advertising for the anime)
never read this before. This is so wildly stupid. Please carry on.
>>15896
Godammit OP, I have extreme right-left confusion, now I'm going to be reading everything in six fucking different dorections for the next two days.
This looks cool, though.
I recommend to watch CB Chara Nagai Go World.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2wFlBVdOWM
>>15962
I am glad that /m/ happened desu. /a/ is shit.
neat
You know, I considered stoytiming Star Wars and Star Trek manga on /a/ for April Fool's, but I'm not sure they'd have "got" the joke, y'know?
This is fucking great

Oh my god, this is phenomenal.
I don't understand how Devilman is so damn versatile in tone, but man this works nice.
>>15916
>>35441
This series is a reaction image goldmine, if you're digging for that.
>>15936
Thanks OP o heard they're making a new Devil man anime
>>35639
Yep! Subtitle sounds weird, but damn if I don't like what this teaser shows.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVxjVrTjWdg
I hope it's a full adaptation, though I'm happy with any Devilman content really. The Cyborg 009 vs. Devilman OVA was just up my alley as well.
>>22163
Akira makes some amazing faces.
>>33457
Danzig loves Devilman so much he published the English release of the manga.
>>35864
I did not know this. That is fucking cool!

>>15889
why is he so cool?
I really like Go's earlier style, his recent style just doesn't have the same charm
>inb4 spic
>>38125
Honestly we shouldn't need a loophole to post comics on the comics board but YAKNOW WHATEVER
>>39015
What's an example of some of his modern stuff? I thought he was mostly doing production work.
>>23180
Shin Mazinger Zero is riddled with hype and plot twists though. It's crazy.
i love go nagai.
there's just something about his work that is timeless.
very gripping stuff
>>42076
>Shin Mazinger Zero vs Ankoku Daishogun

>>15871
Netflix is actually doing a new anime on Devilman.
>>15871
OH hell yes, I remeber reading the first few chapters in the /a/ storytime to honor Nagai's birthday.
>>35864
>>35935

Is Danzig /ourguy/?
I only ever watched the anime before, i didn't realize how shit devilan's art was

Hey OP, while you are based and all, I think that all on here deserve a special treat. Don't you?
https://mega.nz/#F!UswAFDoB!VWPAop_1nj1f57_170Cy2w!khoVGJhD
>>43067
dude has a fairly goofy artstyle.
he's able express a lot of stuff with it though.
anyways, go nagai has a pretty good grasp on how terrible things can get and how horrifying people can be.
it's pretty crazy.
>>29220
Actually it's the other way around.
Devil Man was an early Nagai anime under a different name that he redid years later once he got famous. The manga ran first before the cartoon, in part because the cartoon had to be completely changed from the manga to sidestep the graphic violence and planned downer ending.
>>15914
I fucking love this first volume. It is the most hilariously insane thing ever, and the banter is 10/10.and the first appearance of Devilman is one of the coolest sequences in comic history
>>44092
>planned downer ending.
Let me guess, he goes crazy at the end and kill all his friends.
>>43067
I love the art here. It's simple, clean, and very effective. Emotion is expressed very well, motion is fluid, and the action really bites.
>>43186
very nice.
thanks a lot.
>>15944
How is Nagai able to make such cool pages like this one and also create shit like Enma-kun?
Did he just put more effort into Devilman than anything else?
>>15952hindsight makes this page hilarious
>>44446
>Did he just put more effort into Devilman than anything else?
Yes.
Not to disregard his other work, but the man tried fucking hard on Devilman.
>>43186
thank you! based anon
>>22130
I wish there was a print release in english. I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
>>44313
Ryo turns out to be Lucifer Morningstar and in love with Akira/Devilman. Oh and Ryo has a vagina along with a dick and he also outs Akira as Devilman.
The neighborhood goes apeshit and kills Akira's girlfriend and family and Akira basically goes Devilman and kills everyone in retaliation and then fights Ryo as the demon apocalypse begins.
Oh and one of the later sequels, ultimately reveals that pretty much ALL of the Devil Man remakes are real, even Lady Devilman and that Ryo/Lucifer basically kills Akira every time in their final battle. And every time Akira dies? God shows his face to laugh at Lucifer for crying over his grief for being made to kill the man he loves. Then God resets the timeline (hence why all of the Devil Man books are canon, due to time loop) with Ryo being the only one who remembers the previous loops, and it being explicitly stated that Akira was created by God SOLELY so that Lucifer would fall in love with him, so that Lucifer would try and fail to seduce Akira to the dark side and be forced to kill him. FOR ALL ETERNITY, as punishment for Lucifer turning on God and rebelling.
>>15871
This isn't an american comic. But thats fine.
>>44653
Devil Man was released in English by Dark Horse but is OOP

huRRR
>>44444
Hey, I wouldn't mind a complete Go Nagai storytime. He is pretty awesome and Devilman is a great saga.Lady would be a bitch though due to the... well, I am sure most people who have read even some of Go Nagai's stuff has an idea of what I am talking about. Maybe if we are lucky though we could get a scanlator doing some more stuff for Devilman Saga, as I need to know how it all ends.
>>44381
>>44597
You are welcome
>>45028
>Lady would be a bitch though due to the... well, I am sure most people who have read even some of Go Nagai's stuff has an idea of what I am talking about. Maybe if we are lucky though we could get a scanlator doing some more stuff for Devilman Saga, as I need to know how it all ends.
/aco/ should enable us to get around that. I mean, if it let people storytime The Boys it should let us do Devilman Lady.
>>44816
They unironically will be if OP does Amon. Holy shit, that gang contains some of the best bros of all time.
>>22700thank you based satan
>>45072
Yeah, that's true. I really want to do Shin though just for the origin story of /pol/'s hero and everyone's reaction to it.
>>45188
So, what should the order here be?
Volumes 1-3 of Devilman
Shin Devilman
Volumes 4-5 of Devilman
Devliman Lady
???
Violence Jack?
>>44698
God really does hate fags
>>45293
Honestly, I kinda of think the order that they series was published in.
is this the same anon that pitched a fucking fit when akira was storytimed on co?
>>45293
publication order
okay so danzig apparently tried to do his own devilman lady.
even got madhouse to animate the trailer.
that music tho
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGVzzmaGTbw
>>45293
it's kind of hard to place violence jack in a specific part of the chronology, mainly due to it only being canon in itself & the existence of shin violence jack. the events that happen in the two differ quite a bit
i really should get around to reading the mazinger stuff, i think it's the only of nagai's major works i haven't read yet (aside from cutie hunie)
>>35864
loved it so much he published Shin instead of actual devilman and decided to have it recoloured half heatedly making it look like shit, and is a large reason that Nagai doesn't release more stuff in the west as he feels they will taint his work.
Good fucking going danzig
>>44092
not quite man, devilman was commissioned by toei after an exec read demon lord dante and wanted it remade for kids. Only a few years difference between dante's release and devilman and the anime premiered about a month before devilman started getting published
>>44780
i know who did getter dipshit, i never said otherwise.
>>45293
devilman>shin>Lady>maybe Neo>Saga
those are all the mainline series, plus a few short one off's like one about sirene or one where akira fights a giant sea snake.
>>47637
That was clearly Jerry trying to sabotage things back before him and Glenn reunited.
>>48012
>Not doing Amon and the other awesome as fuck sidestories?
You fucking what m8?
>>48269
dont get me wrong senpai i love them, but the guy wanted only what was considered cannon
Why didn't Satan reincarnate as a chick if they loved Akira/Amon/Devilman so much? Legit question.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZzUbryuQE4
i've read most of the manga, but is there any of the animated stuff i should avoid, or is it all mostly "quality"
>>48415
I honestly think that the side stories help build the world up quite a bit. I mean, the mega that I posted has it in the right order, in terms of what order to do things for the Devilman side. Violence Jack would also be good though as well.
>>48783
I don't think it would have helped.
>>48783
he didnt really have much say in itthat was all psycho jenny
>>43186
Thank you, my based friend.
>>48783He hasn't read Lady
I think you misunderstand a crucial thing about Ryo. No matter what he does, God will find a way to fuck him over. He probably has tried to seduce Akira as a girl once before, and it didn't end well.
>>48896
actually the first 2 devilman animated movies are great but amon apocalypse is not that good on comparison to the last 2, the tv show is also pretty different from the manga, i say the first episode and i couldn't bare it.
just watch these two, they're great.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEf3b7RY90E
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0-3LLFQkMs
sorry if you don't like dubs
>>48896
Dante anime is pretty bad but not terrible, and a few fun nods to the '72 anime throughout.
The first violence jack ova and second were both kind of bad but still a good watch, the third, evil town, is legit kino and very underrated.
'72 anime is some of the best monster of the week you'll find.
Worst thing would be the devilman vs. mazinger z film at the end of the day.
That was better then I was expecting. Not "good", but entertaining in an old pulp/B-movie kind of way. And really funny to see some of this dialogue coming from these character designs.
>>23145
Is it wrong Devilman and Sirene are my OTP?Seriously, I am so desperate for Saga so I can get more of them teasing each other and getting in risque sexual situations.
>>49493
I feel like the cartoony character designs actually make it better. The beginning makes it seem like its going to be some high school life shonen about a wimp learning to stand up for himself and then suddenly Ryo comes in toting a gun and driving off like a maniac while talking about how his dad killed himself with fire.
>look at spoilers for devilman saga
>fucking Zann's back
really hope it gets a new translator asap, shit like 40 chapter now
>>51691
I agree, the contrast works wonders with the story and also, the evoultion of Go Nagai's art helps the whole Devilman Saga as a whole. Mainly because it helps to sell the idea of things maturing and changing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymWc_AxitpY
I BET YOU CAN'T SEE WHY I'M DOING THIS. BUT I'M NOT IN IT FOR MONEY
>>51750
Well, I have just PM'd the scanlator if we can expect a new volume sometime soon. The biggest problem seems to be the quality of Scans though.

This page right here is comedy gold.

Nope- completely wrong.
Originally, Nagai made Demon King Dante- but the magazine it was one closed.
A TV producer liked it and contacted Nagai for an anime on the same wavelength.
They worked on it, adding some american super-hero feeling, and the pilot for Devilman TV was born.
The TV station liked it, so the series was greenlighted and Nagai tasked with producing a manga to advertise it.
Nagai therefore wanted to try to do something different from the anime, so instead of a super-hero story he made a horror story.
Then he got possessed by demons and Akira told us we're fucked.
>>48783
He did, he reincarnated as Akira's mother.in Devilman Lady. It's MORE fucked up than you might think by this
Oh my god the Violence Jack parts of the Go Nagai wikia are AMAZING
I am so happy to see this thread last so long.
