This is the first time I've watched a Netflix anime without knowing what to expect.
I was pleasantly surprised.
At first I was like "What the hell's with this animation?!", but later on I got used to it as a simple concise take on animation style.
YES. I know that the Sabbath part of the episode was VERY WEIRD, but trust me. Later on, you would see how great this anime really is.
Characters aren't really fleshed out in this anime, but for me, I just instantly admire them like I knew them for a while. That's why the ending took a huge toll on me
...
and made me quietly ponder.
The music is top-notch, almost as good as Death Note's OST. You don't really pay attention to it until certain moments happen. But you'll recognize them if you decide to listen to the full OST.
As I watched Crybaby, I was wondering why there's no season 2, because I loved it that much! But the way it decided to end, I realized that there's no need for another season.
**THIS IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY!!** If you can handle blood, gore, and nudity, give it a shot. Basically, if you can get through the first episode without any problems, you're good.
Finally, the pacing gets fast half-way through the show, but like the original Death Note anime, it makes you think about what makes up a human and are we really that different from other species or demons.
Even though Devilman Crybaby is a remake, it is no where near like Netflix's "Death Note" or even the "Ghost in the Shell" live action movie. There's a reason why I gave it a 10. It's a masterpiece. More like a 9.5
I just noticed that I compared this show to Death Note a lot for some reason lol
