no idea but they produce and buy licenses to a ton of japanese live action dramas/terrace house. devilman was promoted super hard, up to them holding a real sabbath party last month.

Did they really need to re-enact the drug-fueled murders though?

So, uh, holy gently caress, TVTropes just informed me that Go Nagai did a really faithful manga version of the Inferno part of The Divine Comedy. Has this ever been translated? I need to inject all of that into my eyeballs right the gently caress now.

That ended on a bleak note. The original manga similar in that regard?

No. Everyone gets married and is happy forever.
