The main supporting characters such as Sachiko, Medoc, Dr. Rainuma and Mikiko Kawamoto present significantly lower roles.
The themes against the war of the manga are present, but they moved to focus more on the angle of xenophobia and racism instead.

Akira Fudo is the main character in the anime series Devilman Crybaby. Originally a regular human being, he gained the power of the demon Amon after being induced to a sabbatical ritual organized by his best friend Ryo Asuka.
Akira was originally a weak young man with an average constitution for a teenager. He was quite scrawny and had brown hair that had a small lock near his back. After his transformation into Devilman, he gained a slim but sturdy figure with dark circles around his eyes and messy hair. He also grew noticeably taller. Compared to his other counterparts, he has a remarkable split chin.
Like Devilman, his skin turns a bluish gray, the skin covers his legs with his feet and fingers, his head is covered with hair that springs from the wings and the antennae near the top and forms a widow's beak With the red forehead, the back also sprouts black wings with a red interior. He also has a tail similar to a monkey.
Akira is a very sensitive and attentive person. As a child, he helped anyone the best he could, including Ryo after losing his memories, as well as a severely injured cat. Most people knew him as a crybaby who cried on behalf of someone, especially if those people suppressed their emotions. However, Akira's attentive attitude leads him to do questionable things like following Miki secretly for his welfare and blindly following the morally questionable Ryo Asuka.
Most people had wondered why Akira had joined and stayed on the track team despite being his slowest member. Akira's reasons seem to be linked to catching up with his parents, as shown when he thinks about getting close to people, as well as having a pair of running shoes that his mother gave him for the planned meeting.
Akira becomes more cocky after his initial transformation, openly defying the thugs to a fight, and entering a carefree running race. He tended to act more strongly on his instincts, including the intense sexual desires of attractive women, and even watched a pornographic video in the projection room of his school. However, his solidary side remained while using his power to help defend the human race from demons.
Akira developed a hatred for the demons after seeing their killings. This was further encouraged when his parents were killed by Jinmen. However, after his encounter with Sirene and Kaim, Akira saw love in the bloodthirsty creatures.
Akira was deeply concerned about Miki Makimura. Each one showed genuine care and affection towards each other. He protected her against people like Koji Nagasaki and Ryo because they could have harmed her or taken advantage of her. It was very evident that Miki was Akira's main hope for humanity, seeing her killed by an angry mob and killing them by releasing a powerful blast of heat from her body. With this, Akira kept Miki's severed head close to him until his battle with Satan.
Akira also valued his relationship with Ryo Asuka very much, seeing him as one of his closest best friends. Occasionally, Akira even joked and even pushed Ryo to do activities for fun. Despite this, he and Ryo often enter into major disagreements, including how Ryo is willing to harm and kill someone to further his plans and protect Akira's identity. Even then, Akira trusted Ryo to end his life if he ever became a demon. When Ryo finally betrayed Akira by revealing all the images he took of him as Devilman and beginning chaos around the world, Akira took it hard. This was even more evident when Ryo revealed that he had orchestrated for Akira to be possessed by Amon so that Akira really was strong enough to survive the coming apocalypse and that Ryo was actually the fallen angel Satan. Out of spite,
Before his transformation, Akira was not very physically impressive, being the slowest member of the athletic club.
After becoming Devilman, his body was upgraded to superhuman levels. In his human state, he was able to run at very high speeds, faster than professional athletes. His strength increased to be able to open closed doors and defeat five thugs with one arm.
Like Devilman, his strength, speed and reflexes allow him to cross enemies before they even have the chance to react. Its mandibular strength alone is capable of tearing the flesh from the bodies. Its claws allow you to cut enemies easily. The wings on your head can also improve your hearing, allowing you to detect incoming projectiles based on sounds and air pressure. The wings on his back could slow down Devilman's fall, allow a big jump in the air, as well as glide and fly long distances. Devilman also manifests different abilities depending on the situations, including the elastic limbs, night vision and the increase in the temperature of his body to the point of causing Ghelmer to evaporate or even use it to cause an explosion.
Akira was born of doctors Reijiro and Kaori Fudo. While still living with them, Akira had a decent childhood. When they had to go to work, Akira was left in the care of Kaori's friends, the Makimura family. Akira often acted as a member of the family especially towards Taro. At some point, Akira met the young Ryo Asuka and befriended him despite Ryo's coldness towards life. Akira finally enrolled in Kamigaku joining the athletic team despite being his slowest member.
When Kaim had Akira on a monitor, the data showed that her date of birth was September 8, 1994.
He also stated that Akira was 16 years old.
This means that the series took place somewhere in 2010 and beyond, although this contradicts itself as we see Donald Trump in the presidential seat, which was not elected until 2016. In the least amount of time his birthday would have to be September 8 of the year 2000 to have 16 years in the series and have Donald Trump as president without creating a gap in the plot.
During a scene, Akira Fudo is shown curling the hair of his bed; This is a reference to CB Chara Go Nagai World where a gag is made about Akira becoming his dream.
