As we ease into the weekend, it's the perfect time to dive into Netflix's latest animated series inspired by the beloved video game franchise, Devil May Cry, now available for streaming. This new addition to the Devil May Cry universe introduces us to a younger Dante, the iconic devil hunter, before he becomes the legend we know and love.
With an impressive voice cast and animation handled by Studio Mir, the series is steered by the experienced showrunner Adi Shankar. His involvement has certainly heightened anticipation, given his track record with projects like Dredd. Set in its own unique universe and timeline, the series promises to explore Dante's early adventures, adding fresh layers to his character.
The Devil May Cry franchise continues to thrive, evidenced by the success of the latest installment, DMC:5, and the Western release of Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat by Tencent. The animated series not only reignites fan interest but also sparks curiosity about the future directions of this enduring franchise.
**This party's getting crazy!** While I have mixed feelings about Adi Shankar, his contribution to getting Dredd into cinemas earns him considerable respect. Nonetheless, his Americanized approach to Devil May Cry has stirred some controversy among long-time fans. Yet, no one can question the dedication and effort poured into his projects.
