New 'Devilman' Anime Announced for Fall 2015
A key visual (shown on the right) for the anime will be displayed at seven Japanese theaters from April 18.
Tagline:
"Devil, awaken."
Devilman was first published in 1972 in Weekly Shounen Magazine. Since its debut, more than 10 million volumes have been printed. A TV anime adaptation aired between 1972 and 1973.
Synopsis
During the Ice Age, demons, humanity's natural predator, were imprisoned in ice. Previously in hibernation, the demons are escaping in increasing numbers. Ryo Asuka's father was killed by demons after his archaeological explorations took him too close to the truth. After reading his father's notes, Ryo calls on the help of his best friend, Akira Fudo, to fight the demons. But only a demon can stand a chance against another, so Akira must let himself be possessed, but maintain control over the demon inside him. Akira, now as Devilman, must face the heightening onslaught of demon attacks to save humanity. (Source: ANN)

I'm really really digging this trend of old manga getting new adaptations.

I'll try this new movie eventually though. Hopefully modern anime style/art/quality will be enough.

Has any of his works been made recently? Like the past couple years? Censorship for gore on any TV anime series is almost for certain these days.
Considering this is a movie adaptation i doubt there's a point in censoring gore in a movie, which people are paying to watch.
Wasn't labeled as a movie when I posted. Or at least, wasn't in MAL when I attempted to look it up, and series type wasn't announced so I figured it was a TV series.
