As we approach the weekend, the entertainment landscape is taking a quieter turn, making it the perfect time to spotlight Netflix's latest animated series, which is now streaming. That's right, the iconic video game series "Devil May Cry" has been adapted into an animated series, and it's available for your viewing pleasure right now.
This new series boasts an impressive voice cast and is brought to life by Studio Mir, with the experienced showrunner Adi Shankar steering the ship. It's no wonder the series has quickly captured the attention of fans and newcomers alike. Set in a unique universe and positioned before the timeline of the original games, the series introduces us to a younger Dante, offering a fresh perspective on the character before he evolves into the legendary devil hunter we all know and love.
The "Devil May Cry" franchise is currently experiencing a revival. With the success of "DMC:5" still fresh in gamers' minds and the Western release of "Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat" by Tencent a few years back, the animated series adds fuel to the fire, reigniting interest and sparking curiosity about the future of this enduring franchise.
This party's getting crazy!While I have mixed feelings about Adi Shankar, his involvement in bringing "Dredd" to the big screen earns him a lot of goodwill from me. However, his more Americanized approach to "Devil May Cry" has stirred some controversy among fans. Despite this, there's no denying the dedication and effort he puts into his projects.
