| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another great episode, I feel as though the show is starting to pick up real steam here. I've enjoyed the demon Miku plot so far and I'm curious where they will end up going with that. The transformation into Devilman at the end of the episode was visually pretty cool to watch. |
 |
| Yes things do pick up but lmfao at this gay sex in the beginning... |
| Although the artwork wasn't the best at times, this episode was awesome. Very different from the manga, as Koda never existed in the manga. I liked his character though, and how there's more people like Akira that have a human conscious in their devil form. 5/5 |
 |
| This felt quite fillerish adaptation-wise but it was essential. I felt really sad about Koda and Junichi though |
| Yo what the fuck was with that beginning? |
  ~ |
| Aaaand we got a trippy gay sex scene! That's definitely a Netflix specialty, in a world where Yuri!!! on Ice couldn't even fully show gay kissing on Japanese TV. Miko's got that devil energy coursing through her that naturally seems to also pop her tits out at any opportunity. Everyone knows that demons exist now because of Ryo exposing Koda, but...what exactly was Ryo trying to gain from this? Devilman wants to destroy the demons that kill humans, but Ryo himself is almost a demon with the number of humans that have been killed because of him. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| The truth is revealed to the world, similar to in Inuyashiki. Not sure what the whole point is yet. |
 |
| What was that ending? A rift between Akira and Ryo? I'll tune in to see. |
| another awesome episode! trump as appeared again! and Ryou declared that demons are true! 4/5. |
 |
| That first scene, though... Okay, so, basically, Koda, a demon-possessed track runner, inadvertently kills his boyfriend during some hot gay sex. In a plan to reveal demons to the world, Ryo broadcasts a video that triggers Koda, sending him into a violent rampage in the midst of a track competition, potentially breaking the camaraderie that Koda and Akira were on the verge of forming. A lot happened, but it makes sense. 5/5 |
| lol at the gay sex scene and wow Miko is sexy as fuck, i like her as another Devilman already lets see how Akira is gonna save Koda |
| Another really great episode but man I really do feel bad for Koda and all the shit he/it has had to go through |

| I knew Ryo was up to something. Shitty bastard! I feel so bad for Akira. |
 |
| Akira lies to Ryo because he wants to save Koda!!! |
| Damn the first scene ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) great episode, this running scenes are killing me also Trump was there lol |
| I don't really get Ryo's motivation for doing what he did yet. |
| A little more back to anime 101, but good ep overall |
| Dunno what to say, the beginning of the episode was gross. Now I hope that Akira saves that guy. |
 |
| Letting the others die is so stupid when you see it from Akira's perspective. He literally wants to save human lifes but sacrifices the other so willingly? Disgusting. I started to like this series but this episode just made me vomit. It also feels like the series needs to show mass slaughter in every episode possible. |
| Another great episode. I feel bad for Koda, I guess know we know that Akira isn't the only demon with a human heart. Maybe even Miko(Miki) too. |
 |
| Savage Ryou. Very intense episode, seems like shit is going to get real from here on. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wow. Ryo is an ass this episode. Triggering Koda just like that. Taking advantage of his trauma. What a fucking asshole. Poor Koda, maaan. My fujoshi heart was celebrating because finally a gay couple and scene, then Ryo decided to be an ass. Fuck him. 3/5. |

| Gay scene was hot, this the best episode (not bcoz of the gay scene) love the genocide and Ryo's savageness and cunningness that he can trick his friend without hesitation (yeah to be fair Akira kind of a fool). Ryo is the epitome of destruction Also, Miko, freaking Miko, love her antics, very interesting character, hot af too |
| I personally didn't expect the story to focus on other 'Devilmen' at all. Glad to see the MC isn't exactly a 'chosen one'. I'm also an idiot. I thought Koda was the rapper with Miko, not the runner from Episode 1. Oops. But this anime is also great with its use of 'show not tell'. The beginning of the episode was just a dream, but from it and other hints in the episode we can tell that Koda killed his best friend (and gay lover) without his own will. And Donald Trump still best anime character. |
| People are complaining about the gay sex scene but they're not criticizing the fact that Akira/Devilman raped Silene in the last episode? Talk about hypocrites. I am glad we got to see an Anime gay sex scene, as expected of Netflix. We've seen orgies, gory death, rapes, etc. and for some fucking reason people get the heebie jeebies because the sex is between two consenting males? Why draw the line there? I feel so sorry for Koda and Junichi. Koda has no control over his transformation ibto a demon and that fucking asshole, Ryo triggered it, made him kill a bunch of people at the stadium too. Trump-chan made another appearance. I wonder if Akira can really save Koda. I like his character and want him to defy that asshole, Ryo. |
| 臭い- |
| That demon-running is absolutely hilarious looking. |
  |
| The second half of Devilman: Crybaby wastes no time as it begins with a gay sex scene that ends with Koda becoming a demon and killing the other guy. Ryo wants to expose Koda as a demon, which he does, and the world starts to fall apart. My suspicions about him were right on. |
| ok the ryo guy is messing things up gain ...his personality is really something else |
 |
| it became a gore fest real fast…hmmm Don't like where this is going |
| |
| I love how this series started like a human-turned-superbeing story, then slowly it's developing and becoming a thing of its own. I haven't seen the old OVA or read the manga, so I don't really care whether it's deviating from the original version or not. This series is getting better and better with each episode! and GOD I love these soundtracks!!! |

moodie said: Yes things do pick up but lmfao at this gay sex in the beginning... But I bet you did not lmfao at the hetro sex at other points. |
| Okay how did Ryo just become the sexiest ever? I'm getting some real Kira/Zero vibes from his schemes and I like it. It also cracks me up how non-chalantly this show throws taboos in your face, almost asking, "... And what are you gonna do about it?" |
 |
SRanabhat said: Ryo's white to Akira's black; Akira having the body of a demon with the heart of a sensitive, kind human while Ryo has the body of a human but heart of a demon. Yeah for sure. I really don't like Ryo because he knowingly gets people killed or does the killing himself. I don't understand why Akira basically lets it happen. I guess here he didn't know what was going to happen exactly. Maybe they will part ways in a sec. I feel like they might fight at the end. Maybe Ryo is doing all of this to gain some kind of demonic power from some super demon or something? That sex scene at the beginning was scary. I think it's interesting how the show examines the connection between sex and violence, both being kinds of urges. I'm not sure they do the best job at it, but it's okay. |
| So Koda isn't the guy who likes Miko and he's still missing...well I guess she ate him Ryo is such a bastard |
| Intense episode and what a massacre…a stadium full of college teens getting trapped and murdered. While I was kinda expecting Ryo was sheming something behinds Akira's back. I like the Kudo-guy, maybe his friends can help saving him. |
 |
| It seems like Akira's horrifying experience and realization last episode has grounded him. Recall how he nearly raped Miki, but now they can have a touching and not remotely sexual encounter on the roof. It was one of the most touching scenes we've gotten so far, so wholesome. That and the fact his urges haven't been out of control anymore. We even got him crying again for someone being sad, someone being sad on the inside(alike that of Ryo perhaps?). It's important to note that Miki finally confronted him on his changes after having her own miniature character arc. I'm positive Akira was out on the roof thinking about his newfound respect for devil life. This all coming together with how he tried to save Koda at the end, told Ryo not to, and sincerely felt for him. This was the most human he's been since episode 1! Drastic and subtle development, but immense for a series so short. "You're not a human. But, You're not a demon either. You're a devilman! And I'm going... to save you!", a speech that contrasted his last which centered around a human and devil distinction, and ended in a climactic 'I'm going to save you' rather than 'kill you'. I wonder what Ryo's goal is. He knew who Amon was and wanted him, specifically, to merge with Akira. Moreover, he films stuff such as his demonic mess of parents with a sadistic smile. And this episode he spoke about getting hits on his broadcast of this event. It seems like he wants to create mass hysteria. I don't know where the lines begin and end though. And at first I had thought there was no way he wouldn't have covered for Akira disobeying him, alike how he had the Sabbath projections as a way to start his trauma up if the water didn't work, but it's not like he wanted Akira to face Silene and Kaim, and it's not like he could have predicted them showing him that devils can love. The development of hatred, which may have been organized in some way by Ryo by getting his parents killed(remember the sadistic smile), has been countered by this display of emotion and conscience from this last unpredictable encounter. Because of that, I don't know how far Ryo has planned ahead! He's an interesting character, but one that Akira deeply cares about as well. I think the line about how Ryo was 'sad too' in the opening scene of the anime will be important to this puzzling relationship. Taro has to represent the influence the media and witnessing these things has on someone with how it constantly shows him looking at sex, violence, and devils. This leading to the fact he said 'cool' to the Koda massacre. Love that the cool rap squad is becoming more and more important with each episode. Koda finally got some screen time that wasn't just in the background and it was something. Poor guy. I sympathize with him so much, the way he wears Junichi's pendent is kind of heart breaking. Great foreshadowing on his part with the opening scene and his presence in the anime before this episode. I wonder how many Devilman's are out there, I have to assume the ones in the secret meetings are mostly pure devil but even then there could be some devilman's who have tried to help them and joined them. Recall how the devils who killed the priest accepted Akira without a second thought claiming "you are one of us"! Because of that I'm sure some which retained their humanity have joined them, perhaps out of sympathy or understanding or a way to survive and release their urges in a way that doesn't get them killed. To release them in a somewhat 'healthy' way. Something I forgot to bring up last episode was that Miko has thematically changed wardrobes showing off her naked body to Miki in this episode proudly, or by wearing more provocative outfits. In the last episodes she was in she always wore a baggy t-shirt or something like it. I'm sure if Miki had time to respond to the winner getting the name Miki, she would have said something kind, along the lines of you're special as you are, or maybe she would have even agreed to call her that. I think the way Miki's expressions tell us all we need to know is an amazing detail, such an expressive character. There is no ill-will between them, just inferiority steaming off of Miko's mentality. I hope she comes around and learns to love herself by the end. I seem to remember her wanting to do something with Akira in the first episode, but him running after Miki without saying a word. And later her masturbation scene started with thoughts of him. Her character has been foreshadowed in so many ways from the very first episode, and I think we can infer even the boy she liked was on Miki's side and not hers? Brutal. The more I watch this, the more I see the ways Kiseijuu was heavily inspired by it. |
| That hot sex scene at the beginning ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Ahhh. Anyway, I think that Ryou will become an antagonist in the end. 4/5 |

| Ryou's only purpose seems to be creating chaos. Then again, it is a good thing to expose demons, soooo.... |
  |
| Ryo keeps me surprising even more. This guy... |
| I'm getting the suspicion that Ryo is the real antagonist in this story. The opening implies as much! I'm also getting serious Parasyte vibes from this, just with more gratuitous sex and blood (and Parasyte was already pretty bloody). |

| Highlights of the episode: Male gay sex Donald Trump cameo Topless Miko's huge tits |
| I have to say that the Demon running only looks more and more ridiculous the more you look at it and it's pretty funny to look at. It doesn't help that track and field's pretty much what the anime's all about aside from sex and demons lmao Koda's a really tragic character who's already suffering with the blood of his lover on his hands and now he was manipulated into massacring dozens of high-school kids because of Ryo's premeditated schemes to reveal the existence of Devils to the world. He might not be the one who does the dirty work, but Ryo's just as bad or even worse due to the immense collateral killings that happens every time he pulls off a plan. Nice Trump-kun cameo xD |
 |
| So before a demon, he wanted to bang chicks, becoming a demon turned him gay?! WTF. That finale was great, didnt seen that coming at all. Bibimbapski said: People are complaining about the gay sex scene but they're not criticizing the fact that Akira/Devilman raped Silene in the last episode? Talk about hypocrites. WTF are you talking about? That was not rape, that bitch wanted to fuck him, but she turned into demon while at it and then tried to kill him, which he gone back at her by trying to also kill her. |

| Oh, hell no, I totally was not ready for the guy scene at the very beginning of the episode, not going to lie, that had me cringe way too hard. That's one broad way to end an episode, so much has happened it left out a lot of undelivered suspense, I hope they resume from where they left out the next episode. I wonder what are Miki and Miko doing right now, probably she could have gotten into the triggered up devil form already from seeing all that gore. I don't know what to think of Ryo, he's definitely caused a lot of pain to a lot of people already, is he really a friend? Or was he a foe all along? |
