Yamato Video announces the dubbing of Devilman - The Chapter of the Harpy Sirén
Some time ago we announced that Yamato Video would have dubbed Devilman - The Birth, the first of the two OVAs that faithfully adapt the manga of the same name by Go Nagai, which arrived for the first time in the video libraries of our country almost thirty years ago on VHS with Grenade Press while it debuted in Japan in home video on November 1, 1987 (read this article as well to find out more).
Well, now it's the turn of a new chapter in the Devilman franchise, or Devilman - Il Chapter of the Harpy Sirén (Devilman: Yochou Sirene-hen), also previously released only on VHS for Granata Press and then for Dynamic Italia.
The Italian cast sees Massimo Triggiani voicing Akira Fudo, Maurizio Merluzzo as Ryo Asuka , Massimo Lodolo as Jinmen, Alessandro Rossi as Kaïm, Marta Rapperini as the nurse and Cinzia De Carolis as Sirén.
Who is Sirén? She is a demon half woman and half bird similar to a harpy, one of the proudest and most powerful representatives of the lineage of demons, as well as the most beautiful of her race. In the manga she is a bitter enemy of Devilman, and her goal is to destroy him not so much for the threat he poses to the demonic race but rather for a personal matter.
Below you can watch the official trailer :
We remind you that the original manga is available in Italy thanks to J-POP and that you can buy all five volumes on Amazon:
The demons, ancient inhabitants of the earth, have awakened from their millennial sleep to take back possession of the planet, exterminating the human race. Ryo Asuka is convinced that the only way to combat this threat is to merge one's nature with a diabolical being and assimilate its powers. To do this, he uses the young Akira Fudo. This is the story of a boy forced to fight against violence and atrocious suffering.
