As we approach the weekend, things are a bit quieter than usual, making it the perfect time to dive into Netflix's latest animated series based on a video game: Devil May Cry. The series is now available for streaming, bringing the iconic devil hunter Dante to life in a fresh, animated format.
Featuring an all-star voice cast and animated by Studio Mir, with veteran showrunner Adi Shankar at the helm, the series has quickly captured the attention of fans and newcomers alike. Set in its own universe and timeline, it offers a glimpse into a younger Dante, before he evolved into the character we've come to know and love.
The Devil May Cry franchise is experiencing a renaissance, with the recent success of DMC:5 and the Western release of Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat by Tencent a few years ago. The animated series is reigniting interest and sparking curiosity about the future of this beloved franchise.
**This party's getting crazy!** I have mixed feelings about Adi Shankar, but his role in bringing Dredd to cinemas earns him a lot of respect. While some fans have expressed concerns about his more Americanized approach to Devil May Cry, there's no denying the dedication and effort he pours into his projects.
