“gee, i wonder if this article about the history of gay manga will mention devilman or ryo asuka. devilman and ryo are very influential with how ‘friendship’ was portrayed between men, it has to be mentioned, right? right?”

ryokira Car is such an integral element to devilman. we need more emphasis on the car in the next adaptation To be honest.

we need more moments of akira sleeping in ryo's backseat after a mission, wrapped up in ryo's jacket, more moments of akira with his feet up on the dashboard on a hazy afternoon when they're just going out, more moments where akira catches ryo in the late afternoon sunlight and he looks perfect. more moments where akira's love for ryo is revealed in the way he looks at him when ryo *can't* be paying attention to akira. to emphasize that not only does ryo love akira, but even in private moments when ryo isn't paying attention, akira loves him, too. more moments of akira brushing his hand over ryo's thigh while they drive, passionate kisses shared when they're parked in the back lot of a gas station desperately chasing a feeling of safety and comfort in an environment that is out to get them.

the car is safety. the car is the one thing that they have that they know can keep them moving, keep them safe on their mission. emphasis on ryo trying to keep them safe within the car, shots of him locking the door. twice. three times over. unlocking and relocking because he doubts himself. more of ryo trying to desperately hold onto that safety and security even as his grasp on reality starts to slip. he double locks the car when akira is inside. his mission becomes less about keeping the world safe and more keeping himself and akira safe the best he can. what was i talking about? More cars! More Ryokira. That's my thesis!
