About

Akuma-kun was adapted into an anime in 1989 by Toei Animation following the Saishinban Akuma-kun manga. It was based on said manga, and thus Shingo Umoregi is the protagonist. It aired on TV Asahi from April 15, 1989 to March 24, 1990, replacing Saint Seiya. It spawned two movies, Akuma-kun released on July 15, 1989 and Akuma-kun: Welcome to Akuma Land!! released on March 10, 1990. It also notably spawned a role-playing game on the Famicom (Nintendo Entertainment System) named Akuma-kun: Makai no Wana. The anime was heavily merchandised, seeing toys and simple things like coloring books.
