Science SARU's Masaaki Yuasa reworks Go Nagai's 1972 manga for its creator's 50th anniversary, following teenager Akira Fudou as he merges with a demon to fight back against an ancient race reclaiming the world from humanity, gaining monstrous power while trying to hold onto his own humanity. The ten-episode Netflix series became one of the most acclaimed original anime of 2018, praised for pairing Yuasa's fluid, unconventional animation with the story's escalating violence and tragedy.
