Violence Jack
Devilman and other characters from the series have shown up in cameo appearances numerous times in Go Nagai's other works. Miki is the first female protagonist of the 1974 manga "Oira Sukeban", and Akira has appeared in various incarnations of "Cutie Honey", most notably the 1994 OVA "New Cutie Honey". Miki and Ryo Asuka also appear as dogs (with dog-like bodies and human heads) in the "Violence Jack" manga. In 1997, Nagai created "Devil Lady", based on his idea of if the main character was a woman. The "Devil Lady" series contains its own original story that stands out from the "Devilman" series. Fudo's silhouette briefly appears in the opening credits of "Devil Lady". The cast of "Devilman" also crossed over with characters from "Mazinger Z" and "Violence Jack" in the 1991 OVA "CB Chara Nagai Go World". This release featured the familiar characters in comical and lighthearted antics in super deformed forms. In this series, it is revealed that Violence Jack is a future version of Akira Fudo. It is also revealed that Miki is an otaku and that she knew of Akira's identity as Devilman due to reading the manga offscreen.
