Anime Limited added ( link ) According to the Twitter account of the title, at present, there is no plan for a standard edition release due to licensor restrictions. However, it is likely that one will be available at some point in the future. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a specific timeframe at this moment.
The company describes the story:
Devils cannot take form without a living host. However, if the will of an individual is strong enough, they can overcome the demon and make its power their own, becoming a Devilman.
Akira Fudou is described as weak and unassuming, but he possesses a bleeding heart. When his childhood friend Ryou Asuka asks for his help in finding demons, Akira immediately agrees without hesitation. However, they end up in Sabbath, which is known for its immorality and degeneracy. During this time, demons take over the bodies of partygoers, transforming them into monstrous creatures that wreak havoc. Despite his initial shock, Akira bravely tries to save his friend by merging with the devil Amon and becoming Devilman, gaining the ability to defeat the remaining demons.
Despite granting Akira immense strength, his collaboration with Ryou stirred up an ancient and intense emotion within him. With his devilish form yet sensitive disposition, Akira joins forces with Ryou in protecting people from harm and avenging his loved ones.
In January 2018, Devilman Crybaby was released globally on Netflix. This was significant because it marked Gō Nagai 's 50th year as a creator.
In 1972, Nagai introduced the initial version of Devilman in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine. Simultaneously, an anime adaptation of the series was broadcasted. Since then, numerous spinoffs, crossovers, and remakes have been produced, including manga, OVAs, and a live-action film. Seven Seas Entertainment will publish the English translation of the original manga.
