busterbeam asked: what did you think of Amon? haven't seen it yet but it seems pretty disliked by Devilman fans, I think for not having a certain kind of touch. maybe it's still fun and well made though, not so much as a Nagai thing but as a more normal 'badass demon action' story?
Amon gets a bad rep because most people don’t understand what it is: an experimental pay-per-view anime with a troubled production history that doesn’t tie into the previous Devilman OVAs or the original manga. It was originally going to be based on the Amon: Darkside of Devilman manga but the rights weren’t successfully secured so it basically had to go off in its own direction.
It completely succeeds as a rousing, gory face punch anime.
