No way it's this bad!! Apparently this version is based more on anime adaptation rather than original manga, but it's just terrible. The first chapter at least has some introduction, but after that it's just the most basic monster of the week formula. But then, even compared to other series that rely on the same thing, it's too damn repeatable! Each monster after each moster, they come, attack Devilman a tiny bit, maybe mess a little with Miki or her brother, and then Akira kills them immidiately with some boring shit like devil kick! or devil beam! etc. The way Sirene was treated... unforgivable, none of her majestic self left.

It's still bloody like the Nagai's manga, I guess the main difference is that there's less nudity, and Miki isn't victim of rape attempts this time, so good for her. Other than that Asuka doesn't apparently exist in this universe. And the rest is just pure boredom. Even the ending, looks like it was cancelled or something, there's no epilogue of any kind. One of the worst manga series I ever read.

Just read the original, please. 2/10

very good manga, too bad it cuts a lot from the slice of life scenes from the anime in favor of action. The long chapters which are like two or three are on par with the tv show though. It's not the forced emo bullshit of Devilman vol 5, that shit was bad.
7/10 read this if you liked the anime, don't bother with Crybaby.
It’s time to ditch the text file.
