Having read the manga, I don’t think that does a particularly good job of tying up loose ends either, but it’s at least better than this anime is. Due to being an adaption of a manga by Ryoh Hanada that was ongoing at the time, the ending doesn’t resolve much of what the show has spent building up to. Sadly, the characters aren’t the only problem Devils’ Line has. I certainly enjoyed Devils’ Line for Anzai’s story and the wider politics of the world as the task force work to deal with devil crimes and hide them from the population. Not knowing how he was born or the best way to properly control his bloodlust around Tsukasa, this tale largely revolves around him figuring himself out. There is a lot of depth to his personality, thanks to the inner conflicts he has about being half-devil. ![]() Even when he’s not in imminent danger, she’s too busy worrying about Anzai to do anything for herself.Īnzai, on the other hand, is a much better protagonist. From the very first episode, Tsukasa exists to be nothing but someone for Anzai to rescue – a damsel in distress. Once our two protagonists are dating, Tsukasa is constantly pulled into the world of devils and always finding herself in need of being saved by Anzai, which is one of the problems this anime has. Between that and the fact that devils are still hidden from society, the troubles the two face stack up but Tsukasa is determined to stay by Anzai’s side. Anzai is part of a special task force that deals with devil crimes and he’s half-devil, half-human himself.Īfter keeping watch over Tsukasa for a couple of days after the incident, the two become friends and slowly fall in love, but Anzai worries that being around Tsukasa will bring out his devil instincts and grows concerned about hurting her. Usually, they’re so possessed by their desire for blood that they lose all sense of themselves until it’s too late and they’ve hurt those around them.Īkimura, the devil that Tsukasa has befriended, is a serial murderer being hunted by the police and just before Tsukasa can become his next victim, she’s saved by Yuuki Anzai. When devils are aroused from the smell or sight of blood, or sexual desire, their nails grow into sharp talons and their physical strength increases. Devils blend into human society and can live perfectly normal lives, but some go mad from bloodlust and murder those around them. The story follows Tsukasa Taira, a college student who is unknowingly friends with a devil. This month, distributor MVM Entertainment has brought the series to Blu-ray and I’m here to find out if it’s worth your time. ![]() Popular manga series Devils’ Line was adapted into anime by anime studio Platinum Vision back in early 2018.
