The cautiously anticipated western Devil May Cry “anime” series is set to premiere on Netflix on April 3rd. This news was revealed alongside a new teaser trailer, featuring the inimitable sounds of nu-metal poster-children Limp Bizkit, on X & Youtube.
Production Team and Story Details
Brought to life by the creative minds behind Castlevania, showrunner Adi Shankar, and animated by the renowned Studio Mir (known for The Legend of Korra, X-Men ’97), the new Devil May Cry anime promises an action-packed experience. The first season will consist of eight episodes, though time will tell if it’s decent or just the latest serving of goyslop from the politically correct dumpster-fire that Netflix has become known for.
While plot details are still under wraps, the series appears to focus on Dante during the timeline of the first three Devil May Cry games, rather than Devil May Cry 5. However, the extent of its connection to the games remains unconfirmed. Adding something to the excitement, Johnny Yong Bosch, the voice of Nero in the Devil May Cry video games, will be lending his voice to Dante in the anime adaptation.
A Return to Form for Devil May Cry
The Devil May Cry franchise has seen a hiatus in recent years. The last game in the series, Devil May Cry 5, was released in all the way back in 2019 & marked a triumphant return to form after a period of relative quiet following DmC: Devil May Cry in 2013. Now, fans can anxiously look forward to a somewhat new & hopefully not woke chapter in the Devil May Cry universe with this upcoming Netflix anime.
