* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Mainland Europe (especially Italy and to a lesser degree Spain), Latin America, the Middle East[[labelnote:*]]Mostly through ''Anime/{{MazingerZ}}'' and its spinoffs there as the religious and sexual undertones of his other works see them banned or censored in the Middle East[[/labelnote]], the rest of southeast Asia, etc. He only really failed to take off in the States, though this [[ColbertBump changed a good deal]] with the release of ''Anime/DevilmanCrybaby''.
* LGBTFanbase: His AuthorAppeal seems to include queer themes, and therefore he has attained this audience. Anime/{{Devilman}} for instance has the relationship between Akira and Ryo laced with HomoeroticSubtext that even is outright confirmed in some incarnations, not to mention that [[spoiler: Ryo's true form of Satan]] is a {{Hermaphrodite}}. This continues with ''Anime/{{Devilman Lady}}'' and its yuri themes. Speaking of yuri, his character ''Anime/{{Cutey Honey}}'' got this through ''Anime/{{Re Cutie Honey}}'' having quite a bit of yuri subtext and possible [[MaybeEverAfter confirmation]] between Honey and Natsuko.

* {{Narm}}: Most of the animated adaptations of his works have lots of this. And the dubbed versions, even more.
* NightmareFuel: So, so much. For the record, Go Nagai himself has claimed that Manga/{{Devilman}} was inspired by his own horrific nightmares. [[NightmareFuel/{{Devilman}} And boy, can you tell]].
