Background

The film was originally announced as two separate projects.

Before Go Nagai became the author of Devilman, he worked as an assistant to Shotaro Ishinomori, drawing backgrounds for the Cyborg 009 manga. It was reported in Sankei Sports that he wished to do a collaboration with Ishinomori.[3]

It was announced in March 2015 that a Cyborg 009 anime, directed by Jun Kawagoe, was in production to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the manga's debut.[9] It was later announced that the anime would receive a theatrical release in autumn.[10]

Dynamic Planning separately announced a Devilman anime in April 2014, produced by animation studio Actas. The project was scheduled for a fall 2015 release.[11]

It was revealed in June 2015 that the two separately announced projects would in fact be a single crossover, titled Cyborg 009 VS Devilman.[3]

Production

The anime is a three-part original video animation directed by Jun Kawagoe and written by Tadashi Hayakawa, with animation by the studios Bee Media and Actas.[12][13] JAM Project will produce both the opening theme song, "Cyborg 009 ~Nine Cyborg Soldiers~", and the ending theme, "Devil Mind ~Ai wa Chikara~".[14]

Release

The first full trailer for the anime was released on 25 August 2015.[15][1]

It was originally announced that the anime would have a two-week run in eight theaters;[12] however, the number of theaters was later expanded to ten.[2] It debuted on 17 October 2015.[2]

The complete set of three 30-minute episodes was released on Blu-ray on 11 November 2015. The individual episodes were released on DVD separately on 11 November 2015, 9 December 2015, and 6 January 2016.[1]

Netflix acquired the streaming rights to the series, streaming it in 20 languages in 190 countries.[5] The English dub was directed by Robert Buchholz and translated by Sachiko Takahashi.[5]
