Devilman Lady Volume 16

Some more Nagai for everyone, and this time it's the beginning of the end of Devilman Lady! The cover pretty much says it all; next volume is the series finale. As always, thanks to OtherSideofSky for translating and typesetting this release, and thanks to Wright of HappyScans! for cleaning it.

  3. Factoid time: page 87, Jun mentions how her younger brother Hikaru, when he was a little kid, would be afraid of everything and wet himself as a result, so everybody would call him "Tare" ("Dripping"). This is probably a nod to the 70s Devilman TV series. Tare-chan was the younger brother of Miki Makimura, Devilman's girlfriend, and he fits the description. Also of note, for those who haven't read the original Mao Dante manga: Dante's big scene in this manga is straight from the original version.

    1. Yeah, I noticed that too, Superforce. Further, Hikaru's girlfriend Miki Hirata seems remarkably similar to Miki Makimura. Her first name is the same, her appearance is similar and she has a similar personality, including a tendency to slap people (she's even nicknamed "Open hand Miki", like the original Miki was called "Miki the Hands"). All this leads me to believe that in Devilman Lady, Hikaru and Miki are the reincarnations of Tare and Miki Makimura. Which at least answers the question of what happened to them when the universe was rebooted by God (either after the events of Devilman or Violence Jack).

    1. If you're talking about Devilman Lady, there's only 17 volumes in the series. And you can try using the download links on this blog to read them; either on the individual release posts or by clicking the name of the manga listed under the "Projects" sidebar.
