<h2>Not the first anime adaptation for Akuma</h2>
The first manga for Akuma Kun was published in 1963 till 1964. Mizuki made several other additions to the franchise throughout the 1970s and 1980s. The manga was first adapted into a television series in 1989 and ran till 1990. In the same period, two other films of the same manga were made. Coincidentally, Junichi Sato directed the two films and the TV series in 1989 and 1990.
Just by seeing the great cast and crew that will be putting its mind together for the series, it is safe to assume that the anime will be one of the best ones out there when it releases in 2023.
For now, since the announcement is still fresh, we do not have a trailer or sneak peek for the show. However, keep checking out our website for more Akuma Kun and anime other updates.
