"Devilman"s 39-episode anime series was developed by Toei Animation in 1972, while Nagai began the "Devilman" as a manga in Kodansha's "Weekly Shōnen Magazine", barely a month before the anime series started. The manga was published between June 11, 1972 and June 24, 1973, while multiple editorials have released it in collected volumes ("tankōbon"). Seven Seas Entertainment published the English translation of the original manga in two volumes in 2018. The series has since spawned numerous OVAs, manga, novels, films, and a sequel. Devilman and other characters from the series have shown up in cameo appearances numerous times in Go Nagai's other works. The most notable is Tomoharu Katsumata's 1973 feature film "Mazinger Z vs. Devilman", which features Devilman teaming up with Nagai's titular robot to fight Dr. Hell. In 2018, a remake titled "Devilman Crybaby" directed by Masaaki Yuasa was created showing an alternate more modern-like retelling of the manga.
