Apparently, this cross-over is not as random as some might believe as before Go Nagai became the author of Devilman, he worked as an assistant to Shotaro Ishinomori, drawing backgrounds for the Cyborg 009 manga. Even when Star Trek crosses over with stuff like Transformers or Planet of the Apes, I’m 100% on-board. I know cross-over stuff like this is usually silly, and makes almost no sense most of the time, as a huge fanboy I absolutely love it. NOTE: Discotek is going to re-release the show soon…YAAY! And as a bonus, I got Devilman, which at the time I had only ever seen the older film, so that was a bonus! It was not until 2015 when Netflix randomly tossed this cross-over anime onto it’s streaming service that I saw some new content with the characters. Then, Sony refused to do anything with the licence, released a single DVD and that was that – I never got to finish the show. It had a great soundtrack, awesome retro art-style, and felt different than most anime on at the time. At the time, I was oblivious to the age of the property or that it was held in the same regard in japan as something like The X-men, but I loved it. Around the time I had just started college, I fell in love with an anime on Toonami Midnight Run called Cyborg 009.
