History YMMV / DevilsLine

* CompleteMonster: [[BitchInSheepsClothing Kirio Kikuhara]], also known as Zero Two, is the [[BigBad commander]] of the Chosen Civil Community, or CCC, an organization dedicated to [[VanHelsingHateCrimes the extermination of devils]]. In the past, Kikuhara [[{{Matricide}} murdered his own mother]] and psychologically tortured half-devil Yuuki Anzai by making him witness his kind's animalistic nature. In the present he orders Nanako Tenjo to assassinate Anzai, while he has Ren Murakami slash a woman's throat in Ikebukuro on live television, leading to the devils there being overcome by their bloodlust and feed on her; this would expose devils to the public, which led to lynch mobs forming to persecute and murder innocent devils. Kikuhara would then order Murakami to kill Nanako when she failed to kill Anzai, before killing Murakami himself once [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness he served his purpose]]. When Nanako survives and helps F Squad expose Kikuhara's crimes, Kikuhara arranges nine people to be killed by devils before turning the blood-crazed devils on F Squad, hoping to use the devils to kill them and frame them should they survive.

* CompressedAdaptation: The anime tries to adapt around 40 chapters worth of content into a [[TwelveEpisodeAnime twelve-episode]] series. It turns out as well as you expect.

* PeripheryDemographic: ''Devils' Line'' is a {{Seinen}} series but it has gained quite the number of female readers. Not surprising as one of the main focuses of the story is the romance between Anzai and Tsukasa.

* CrowningMomentOfFunny: The researchers at ONL, including Anzai's ''mother'', are cheerfully upbeat and ''stunningly'' blunt about the applications of various "restraint" devices in human-devil sex, right down to two of the male researchers helpfully demonstrating the use of a purpose-built bed that would be a bondage enthusiast's dream come true. (One of the guys is a little ''too'' into it for the other one's comfort.) How Anzai and Tsukasa don't outright detonate from blushing is a mystery.
