Amon: Apocalypse Of Devilman ((install)) Instant

Released in 2000 as a two-part OVA (Original Video Animation) directed by Hideki Takayama, Amon is not a remake or a sequel.

The inciting incident is psychologically brutal: Akira’s beloved childhood friend and unrequited love, Miki Makimura, is publicly tortured and killed by a mob of terrified humans who falsely accuse her of being a demon. The sight of Miki’s crucified body, defiled and broken, is the final straw.

The narrative shifts the focus toward the internal struggle between Akira Fudo and the beast dwelling within him. As society collapses under the paranoia of a secret demon invasion, humanity turns on itself. Vigilante groups hunt anyone suspected of being "different," leading to a complete breakdown of morality. The story reaches its emotional nadir with the death of Miki Makimura, an event so horrific it shatters Akira’s spirit and allows the legendary demon Amon to seize control of his body.
