As we approach the weekend, things are quieter than usual, making it the perfect time to dive into Netflix's latest animated series based on a beloved video game. That's right, Devil May Cry is now streaming, bringing the stylish action of the iconic devil hunter Dante to your screens.
Featuring an all-star voice cast and animated by the acclaimed Studio Mir, with veteran showrunner Adi Shankar at the helm, it's no surprise that this series has captured significant attention. Set in its own universe and timeline, the show delves into the adventures of a younger Dante, offering fans a fresh perspective on the character before he evolved into the legend we know and love.
The Devil May Cry franchise is experiencing a renaissance, with the recent release of DMC:5 still resonating strongly within the gaming community, and Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat introduced to Western audiences by Tencent a few years ago. The animated series is reigniting interest in the series, sparking curiosity about what the future holds for this enduring franchise.
This party's getting crazy! Adi Shankar's involvement has stirred mixed feelings among fans. While his role in bringing Dredd to cinemas earns him respect, some are skeptical about his Americanized approach to Devil May Cry. Nonetheless, the dedication and effort in his projects are undeniable.
