The series doesn't start or end with Dante, he is somewhere in the middle of more enjoyable characters with better back stories.

There are two main characters of the series being lady and the rabbit, and they get a separate episode explaining their back stories but Dante doesn't get the privilege of being the Dante from games, in the series yes easily outwitted and often defeated by the lead characters. Where these two lead characters get most of the screen time and meaty dialogues and scenes.

The series is enjoyable to watch, thought the episodes could be brought down to 20 minutes an episode, which most of the time exceed even 30 minutes, that doesn't make the episodes look chrisp. That takes away most of what was most enjoyable about the games, the series is not action driven or stunt driven. And really seems like its own thing but that is not what we usually expect with Devil May cry.

Action is okay and there was nothing new about it. It really doesn't feel like Devil May cry, is what is so off about the series.

The series introduces one of the most prominent characters of the games in the last scene, and again it wasn't about Dante at all.

The best part about the series is the antagonist.

Steal: the antagonist, his back story and his introductory scene is outstanding.

Netflix's Devil May Cry should've been an easy win. Take Dante, one of the most badass and effortlessly cool characters in fiction and throw him into an action anime with fun writing, then let the mayhem speak for itself. The first two episodes are mostly just this, outside of some lame marvel jokes but man this show quickly forgets what makes DMC work which is pure badass action where demons are monsters, not misunderstood victims, and where Dante sure as hell doesn't need backup to handle the job and is the most charismatic character possible every second he's on screen.

I'll give credit where it's due, they (mostly) nailed Dante. He has been my favorite character ever since I was a kid and to me, his personality here is intact outside of the few aforementioned cringey marvel jokes. The animation, while nothing mind-blowing is very good most of the time and the action sequences in the show are always good, though they would've been much better if they used some of the moves from the games, they are still plenty badass and entertaining. The voice cast is fine too. JYB as Dante grew on me quickly but I hope they recast Dan back as Vergil because he is simply irreplaceable. I like the rest of the cast, not much else to say here.

I should mention that there's also a lot of fanservice here, for Capcom fans in general, not just DMC fans and it's all implemented very well, and as a lifelong fan I can't help but like it.

So, Dante is fine, and the animation is appealing enough... and then there's Lady. She should be a highlight, she gets numerous awesome action scenes, just as many as Dante if I were to guess. But the second she opens her mouth it destroys everything. It's like the writers forgot how to make a woman sound tough without drowning her in gratuitous, edgy swearing. It doesn't make her cool. It makes her sound like an immature teenager's idea of a badass and it drags down every scene she's in.

Another glaring flaw is how they nerfed everybody, Dante is somehow even significantly weaker here than his teenage DMC3 self and the demons are no different. They should be a threat but they are so weak and rarely pose any real danger.

But the show's biggest misstep is how it tries to make the viewer sympathize with the demons. Giving them tragic backstories and pushing the dreadful "humans are the real monsters" narrative cliche completely misses what makes Devil May Cry work. These are supposed to be forces of evil that Dante mows down with flair, not misunderstood victims. Suddenly we're getting sob stories about how Sparda did the weaker demons injustice and how not all demons are bad, how they don't all serve Mundus or seek chaos, blah blah blah. We already knew from the games that some demons aren't evil but what's going on here is an embarrassingly failed attempt at depth and symbolism that ends up being very unfaithful to the original canon. This, no jokes, feels like tumblr or reddit tier writing.

Also, why the hell is this set in the USA instead of DMC's signature gothic-industrial locales? Why not a new city similar to Fortuna or Red grave? But no, we get Adi Shankar's trademark "let's force in half-baked political parallels" approach again, just like with Castlevania. This dude needs to get over his hate for christianity, it seeps into everything he touches. Suddenly, demons are less "apocalyptic forces of hell" and are more oppressed victims of Sparda and the selfish human, there's a plot "twist" that the awful sixth episode leads into that further pushes the braindead "humans are the real monsters" cliche. This strips away all the franchise's stylized identity and the result is a world that feels as bland as the forced "depth" in the writing.

Furthermore, they attempt to explain the demon world and its connection to the human one with quantum physics and they also add some lore involving DNA that I won't spoil but what I will say is, all of it is awful and falls completely flat.

Overall, it's fine. The action and Dante's personality were the standout highlights that saved the show for me. However, the awful changes to the lore and characters really detract from what makes DMC work so well. 7/10.

It's not every day that an adaptation comes along and completely exceeds expectations-but this one truly did. As someone who holds Devil May Cry 3 very close to heart, I went into this with a mix of excitement and hesitation. We've all seen adaptations that miss the mark. But from the very first frame, this one not only respects the legacy of the game-it elevates it in the most jaw-dropping, nostalgic, and stylish way possible.

There's something magical about seeing a world you've once controlled with a gamepad come to life in such vibrant, kinetic detail. The animation is absolutely stunning-crisp, fluid, and brimming with attitude. The energy is relentless, yet purposeful. The creators clearly knew what made the original game special: the style, the swagger, the music, the mystery-and they poured all of that into every second of screen time.

Emotionally, it's a rollercoaster. There's nostalgia, of course-so much of it. But also moments of pure awe. Scenes that made me grin from ear to ear, reminding me of boss fights I struggled with, levels I replayed just to perfect a combo, and that unmistakable feeling of being cool while playing Devil May Cry. That feeling? It's captured here beautifully. And somehow, it still surprised me. Certain sequences had me pausing, rewinding, just to take in how spectacularly they were pulled off. You don't expect to be this impressed anymore-but here we are.

Great Action scenes. Devil May Cry on Netflix is a stylish adrenaline rush, blending high-octane action with slick animation and that signature gothic-cool vibe. Dante is every bit the demon-slaying, wisecracking badass fans love, delivering epic sword-and-gun fights that feel like choreographed chaos. The pacing is tight, visuals are sharp, and the soundtrack shreds. It captures the game's spirit perfectly while carving its own bloody path. A hell of a ride-literally.

Devil May Cry on Netflix is a wild, demon-slicing thrill ride that nails the game's energy. Dante is effortlessly cool, tossing out bullets and one-liners with equal precision. The fight scenes are a visual feast-fast, fluid, and downright savage. Animation is top-tier, mixing gothic noir with anime flair. The plot's tight enough to keep you hooked, but it's the action and attitude that steal the show. Pure, stylish mayhem-this is fan service done right, and even newcomers will be hooked.

I enjoyed the series though I think rearranging a key episode would have gave the series more punch. I have never been a fan of the character Lady so was annoyed with how much the show focused on her over Dante. Pretty much whenever Dante was on screen I was having fun, whenever Lady was I was wondering what anyone else was doing. Hopefully next season we will get Trish and they will cut back on Lady. Hell even the side characters on Lady's team seemed to be more interesting than her.

Overall I think Dante sounded a little off but otherwise not a huge issue. Kevin Conroy sounded great as expected.

Having just finished binging Netflix's adaptation of Capcom's Devil May Cry franchise, by Adi Shankar, I came away thinking it was... just alright. As a fan of the series, I was really looking forward to it and was willing to give it a fair shot despite the constant negativity from fans leading up to its release.

For non-fans, it can be enjoyable, and even for longtime fans, there are plenty of nice callbacks that I appreciated. The voice work I thought was well done, and the animation, for the most part, was solid especially in the action scenes. Hell, I even liked the choice of music for the soundtrack. Maybe a controversial take, but I thought it was a fun touch, considering that style of music was popular around the same time as the early games. Plus, I just so happen to like that type of music, so I didn't mind it in this adaptation.

What really turned me off, though, was the story and the handling of its characters. It started off strong but slowly spiraled into its own thing, and by the end, it felt like it had completely missed the point of what Devil May Cry is really about. The show's overt edginess gets excessive at times, featuring a level of brutality not seen in the games and feels more fitting for a Mortal Kombat adaptation than Devil May Cry. Also Lady constantly dropping F-bombs in nearly every sentence? I mean it was comical at first but quickly became real try-hard.

Despite the franchise's surface level aesthetics, demon-slaying with dual pistols and a long sword by a dude in a red coat. Devil May Cry isn't actually that edgy. If anything, it's surprisingly wholesome. This is a series built on themes of humanity, love, and compassion, with iconic lines like: "Maybe somewhere out there, even a Devil May Cry when he loses a loved one." "Humans possess something that demons don't."

The franchise emphasizes how human emotions, like love, compassion and their desire to protect is what makes humans and even demons strong once they "wake up" to it.

The anime, on the other hand, while having some good moments, focuses more on displaying the raw action the series is known for. It shifts its narrative toward the plight of demons, presenting it as an allegory for real-world struggles. While that's an interesting angle, it doesn't align with the games' core themes, which are more about exploring the beauty of humanity and why it's worth protecting especially from Dante's perspective as a half-demon. This shift didn't lead to much in the end, and it just felt disconnected from what makes Devil May Cry special.

By the time the season wrapped up, I was underwhelmed by how it handled key aspects of the games. Even if later seasons eventually introduce the deeper themes of humanity alongside all the stylish action, I fear it'll be too little, too late. Instead of waiting to see if it improves, I'd rather just replay the games.

That said, if you got something out of this adaptation, don't let me take that away from you. If you've never played the games before and enjoyed the show, I highly recommend giving them a shot. Hopefully, you'll come to love this series as much as I and so many other fans have.

I've played most of the DMC games and I remember playing mostly as Dante. Dante is maybe 40% of the shows focus, with the majority of the rest being on the Lady. She's terribly written and portrayed as more powerful and competent than Dante across the board. Then we have the demons; half misunderstood coming into the earth realm to find a better life, wonder what that's supposed to represent? With humans being painted as the bad guys. The other half of the demans, the evil ones, can barely keep up with a human, so what's the point of Dante.

The animation is ok and the soundtrack is fun, and when the show focuses on Dante it's enjoyable. This should have been a fun take on an iconic action game, but it only manages the live up to that for a small portion of the show.

I absolutely love it, as a reboot series it's amazing I understand others critisims of the differences it has from the game series. However I felt like it still did them justice and even made a better beginning, Dante is as fun and awesome as he is in the game and Lady being a more prominent storyline character was cool interesting move however I hope in season 2 they treat Vergil as such instead because I was really hoping to see more of him and feel he brings more depth intrigue. In any case I loved it and I am so hooked to watch more. It's a series that although it doesn't go 100% the same with the games, it's very good it will also make Devil May Cry known to more people, I hope they give it more seasons to see when they release dcm 6.

I've never played the games so I went in blind. Here's my review: 9/10

Dante is awesome. Voice acting is great. Music was phenomenal and perfectly placed. The animation was a highlight and really well done and super detailed, I really appreciated the beautiful artwork (except for the one flaw which was the occasional use of CGI which looked terrible and really stood out poorly). I'm terms of story, to be honest, I went in expecting generic trash and was surprised to find the story was actually enjoyable and had some depth. A bit wacky at times but a fun ride. A criticism I'd give is it seems to move too fast at times, like it's written for ADHD viewers and scared to lose your attention by taking more than a 30 seconds break from the action.

In terms of characters, a lot of focus was put on Lady, who plays a big role in the story. She was cool, though a little wooden in terms of likeability. I was worried she'd be a Mary Sue, but they give a reason for why she's such a good fighter. She's not perfect, just determined, which makes for a more compelling character. The villain was pretty good and effectively terrifying at times. The biggest success was that they nailed Dante the main protagonist. He's super charismatic and fun to watch.

As soon as I finished the anime I immediately started rewatching. It's just such a fun time. Strongly recommend.

It's feels like a sidestory of Devil May Cry or even a Devil May Cry in another universe, its just doesnt feels like devil may cry at all. Like how can you do Devil May Cry adaptation but dante feels like a side character.

Lady / Mary is the worst character here for me, constantly swear out of nowhere, twisted and weird logic, a weak character logicaly but pushing to be awesome.

But on the otherhand we got a downgraded dante that always lose to the main, a weird power level of the entirety.

The best one is the villain aka Rabbit, damn good character, back story, love everything about him.

The ending scene is good old catchprase and ost, i will watch it if it have ever s2 but wont expect much.

The Good: 1. DMC is finally brought to a bigger audience.

2. Dante's character is almost game accurate (80%) 3. Ocassionally, good soundtracks.

4. The animation and specially episode 6 was brilliant.

The Bad: 1. Multiple missed opportunities to add a good soundtrack.

2. Dante's demon form was introduced horribly. There was hardly any power-up (Rudra took his punches easily). Demon Trigger deserves more respect in my opinion.

The Ugly: 1. Lady's / Mary's character is badly visualised. She extremely edgy and lacks the charisma. Her edginess and ignorance became annoyance too soon and for too long. She is a great character in the game lore though, completely unlike the one portrayed in the show.

2. Why the excessive cuss words. Lady rarely has a dialogue without the F word. I am sure there are other better ways to depict trauma. Let's not be lazy.

Why we are looking DMC story without Dante as main character? Why they named this show DMC??? My suggestion is to rename this show to Lady may cry, would be more appropriate. I don't know how much longer they will get away with these kind of baits with titles targeting fans to bite the story which is a classic cover and then they serve us characters of modern feminism who solve everything instead of the characters that made us fans of these titles. I've been a fan of DMC since 2005 when the third part of this game came out and the only reason I became a fan was Dante and I guess like all other fans. And now we are watching the DMC series where the main character of the story has become a side character.

DevilMayCry is proof that Adi Shankar can do no wrong when it comes to adapting video games for the animated television medium. If it was possible to have him adapt all my favourite video games, I would.

This show is absolutely badass, with heartfelt moments, action sequences that rock with stunning animation that takes it to a whole new level with its sixth episode and music that perfectly fits with the tone of the show, taking from the game and just early 2000s culture. Just after 2 episodes and you will see that adi shankar COOKED with this one, it's just as Action Packed, Bloody and Funny as you would want from a Devil May Cry Show. Plenty of Easter Eggs For longtime Fans to notice. JACKPO see.

I binged watched the series last night in one go, that was how hooked I was. The characters, storyline, EP 6 HELLOO?

Everything was phenomenal, so I am kindly requesting (demanding almost) for a season 2 to be realised asap.

Dante was amazing, so was Lady Mary, everybody was, and I can not wait to see what happens in season 2, with the reveal of a certain somebody at the end (don't want to spoil for potential current viewers).

I don't really have much to say now, but I need to hit the minimum required characters here to send this through, so here I am, once again, please release season 2!!!!

Hi there, I was absolutely awaiting this new "devil may cry" with eyes transfixed...

Someone has mistaken Dante for some kind of clown with jokes, stupid smiles and selfie positions. It s unbearable. (kind of marvel style with Iron Man, Thor, Spiderman.human torch in Fantastic Four, etc..etc..) The animation is amazing, incredible and some twists of action, like Lady using a truck as a ramp to throw herself to a building are unique.- The fights are more than correct but SURPRISINGLY there s no THAT much different with de 2007 Devil May Cry fights. The argument was predicibly "original"; no mind bending twists.

At the end of the day....amazing animation and hmph....

I love this show. The creators did a spectacular job. The music is awesome, the artists did a splendid job writing the music for this show (I think it sounds uncannily like doom music) the characters (except you lady💀) are all awesome. Dante is the same guy we knew from the games, quick witted and light hearted. The action scenes are outstanding, and the animation is crisp and beautiful. Despite the reviews talking about how bad of a character lady is (she's bad) and how much profanity she drops, still a 10/10 despite the absolute bogus character of lady. Also not enough Vergil. Good job Netflix.

The lady is too annoying, the show was great but her bi**chiness is very infuriating. Maybe it's a women empowerment something (we are not against that) but to let it ruin a perfectly good thing is something else.

Anyway, just watch the show and ignore her, it's very good aside her irritations. I think it could do better though. The 2007 (not sure actual year) anime was really good. The game's awesome. Anyway let's hope for something better in the subsequent seasons. And please let's get to see that OP Dante in the upcoming seasons as well.

Overall, great show, patiently waiting for the next season if there'll be one.
